About

Hey there! Thanks for stopping by my blog and visiting. Guess you're curious about me, huh? Yes, we do actually have a dozen children and yes, they're all ours! Some would accuse me of being nuts, and while that can't totally be ruled out, at least I am having a great time!

Here's a picture of all of the children, taken a few years ago when they were all still home.   

Now our oldest daughter is married and our oldest son is serving in the Army.  We sure do miss them!  Thankfully I am kept quite busy still here at home homeschooling the other 10.

Here's a more recent picture, taken this past December, when Nate was home for Christmas.  We had so much fun having him home!

I am passionate about my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.  My prayer is that I would bring Him glory in all that I say and do.  I have a wide variety of interests, so quite frankly, you never can know for sure what topic I'll choose to write about!
Here are some favorite topics you might see covered here:

• healthy recipes (some gluten free and some non-healthy chocolate recipes too!)
• gardening
• photography
• health
• triathlon
• sewing and quilting
• homeschooling
• frugal decorating, 
• and even an occasional passionate exhortation from my heart to yours.

Thanks for stopping by!  Please enjoy your visit~ I'm glad you came!
