WELCOME!

WELCOME! I used this blog to share our family's homeschooling thoughts and experiences. Our oldest child, EL, finished her formal education in May 2017, and we graduated our son, JJ, from High School in May 2021. I will leave this blog up for anyone who wishes to read our curriculum reviews or see what types of field trips and/or activities we participated in.

    1. Thankyou, Stephanie! I have your first slow-cooker cookbook and it has been very helpful. I LOVE the rotisserie style chicken! It is one of my favorites from the book.
