I'm about to enter into my first year of home schooling Aiyana (my 6 year old). I feel a little bit insane for doing it, just because my educational background has not prepared me to teach. I studied psychology, the only good that is going to do me is helping me identify when I'm having a nervous breakdown over the whole homeschooling process. LOL!
I think I'm prepared. Thanks to...

FUN IN THE BOUNDARY WATERS
August 21, 2013
I meant to post this much earlier but I didn't get around to uploading all of my BWCA pictures to the computer until now.
In early July our family took a trip up to the BWCA (Boundary Waters Canoe Area), one of our most favorite places to visit in the U.S. We spent 4 days canoeing, hiking, fishing, camping in addition to looking for bears and wolves. Unfortunately we didn't...

GOODBYE TECHI
July 12, 2013
We just returned from four days in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area and a 2 day visit to Ely.

Unfortunately three hours into our 4 hour...

June 25, 2013
If you can't grow your own do the next best thing... PICK SOMEONE ELSES!!
The family and I drove over to Sam Kedem's Farm in Hastings yesterday and picked over 12 pounds of big juicy organic strawberries.

STRAWBERRY FAIL
June 12, 2013
I can't help but be envious of my friends who have a bumper crop of strawberries this year. I planted strawberries 5 years ago and it seems, once again, that I made an error.
My friend Teresa (domestic goddess, writing genius, homesteader extraordinaire) over at Homestead Notes is my go-to person when I struggle with gardening (and pretty much everything in life) and I've learned from...
