  • School Update

    Well, we have completed 2 weeks of school, and will be starting on week 3, today. The kids are loving it. Zion has completed “Little House in the Big Woods” and will be starting on a new book this week. (updates on that a little later this week). Azariah is learning to write in cursive…

  • Happy Anniversary

    10 years ago, I made the biggest change in my life, that I would never, ever regret. 10 years ago today, I became a wife. It has been a wonderful 10 years, and I can’t imagine living my life with a better person. God has truly blessed me with the best man in the entire…

  • Clotheslines

    I found Glorianna downstairs trying to make a clothesline for her baby doll clothes. She had a rope strung from the stair railing, to the laundry room door, to the family room door. Needless to say it was very hard to go anywhere downstairs without getting tangled up in her clothesline. So I talked her…

  • Recycled Denim Purses and Totes

  • Maple Bars and Scattering Seeds

  • A Triangle

    Even tho Glorianna already knows most of her colors and shapes, the curriculum I am using covers all of the basics. But the awesome thing about it is, they teach the kids shapes and colors, in a fun and creative way. Glorianna will forever remember “Timmy Triangle” and what it feels like to be a…

  • Yet Another Difference Between Boys and Girls

    It truly amazes me to discover, day by day, the wonderful way God had created us. He designed boys a certain way and He designed girls a certain way. No one has to teach boys to be rough, play cars, dig in the dirt, dissect worms….it just comes naturally. I have never taught Glorianna to…

Final layer is a sheer, shiny lace and trimmed with a light pink ribbon. The back of the skirt is slightly “bustled”. Size 10-12 Waist 25″ Length 21″…
