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.

Running at a very fast pace!

I guess you can tell I've been busy! This has been the longest break in the blog so far! This is the season of the year that our family seems to run at a very fast pace. And speaking of running and fast paces - today was the annual Track and Field Day for Hempfield Homeschoolers! Ivy participated in 7 events - tire run, obstacle course, hurdles, long jump, high jump, softball throw and soccer kick. She had a blast and won a few second and third place ribbons! I was the guide for the 11 year olds so I got to record the times and help with the ribbons. Joel was too old to participate this year so he helped with the 100 yard dash - timed the races. Afterwards, we all enjoyed a picnic lunch and brought some friends of Joel and Ivy home for the rest of the day! They played a long game of Life and ate lots of pizza.
