About Me

Life as a home educator, mother, wife, frugal personal shopper, friend, with 5 kids,
who has ups and downs as well as dirt on the ceiling fans.

We serve the Lord Jesus Christ as our Savior as He gives us so much undeserved grace.
I pray that this blog will encourage as well as be an enlightened piece of history for my children
because they will not have completed baby books when they get married.
~~~
Things that I like or at least keeps me busy:
Decor on a shoe-string budget
EASY recipes
Traveling (we like to visit the World’s Largest Everything)
Photography (I call my camera R2D2)
My Sweet Hubby, seriously, I smitten with him.
Living a Christ-like life.
I love Chick-flicks. I also love the time of just having down time with no thinking required. 
Traveling Texas!

Favorite Music

I love music that is pleasing to my ears.
Sometimes this is silence.
Sometimes this is oldies on a beach.
If you were to walk in on me while I was mopping – you’d hear Cajun.
I don’t understand a word of it…it just makes mopping more fun.
Sometimes this is my children singing so off key that is has me rolling on the floor.
Mostly it is Praise and Worship to the King of Kings.

Favorite Books

I LOVE to read.  My hubby even made me my own library.
Take a look at some of my Book Reviews!
I even like to read Hallmark cards…that would be ultimate job to me.

Find me other places as well…
