Welcome

Welcome to our place...just two steps away from the funny farm! To explain this name, whenever things get crazy at our house, I always say "Well, we are just two steps away from the funny farm!" As a very busy homeschooling family, things DO sometimes get a bit chaotic. But we love this life of living and learning together and there is never a dull moment!

The picture of the beautiful Amish farm on this page was taken while we were on the Strasburg Railroad.

VBS week

These days are flying by, but I'm exhausted! We are having a great VBS with over 350 children in attendance. I have 18 in my Kindergarten class and I'm the "head coach". Each day begins bright and early and we get home 4 hours later about 1:00 in the afternoon. Jaden has been going to a special class just for toddlers, but is very happy to have Joel stay with him as a helper. Joel is a great big brother!

Ivy sure is enjoying these busy days. She was at camp all last week so having VBS to go to every day this week has helped her not to be bored. And Saturday is her 11th birthday so she is very excited about that!

When VBS is over, we are going to do some family days - go to the beach, maybe the zoo.... and have fun! Then it is time to buy the books I need for school soon. I'm really looking forward to starting our new school year with Tapestry of Grace.

Well that's all I have time to write for now! If I had more time, I'd tell you about Joel's hilariously funny story about his ride home from the Phillies game on Sunday. That will just have to wait.
