"Your Word is a light unto my feet and a lamp unto my path." Psalm 119:105

Hello and welcome! I'm a former elementary music educator, turned mom and home educator for more than 15 years. I have a passion for teaching, singing, and encouraging others along the way! Although I began blogging as a way to create a journal of our home education journey, I enjoy writing about a variety of topics related to home education, family, friends, and faith. I hope you enjoy journeying along with us!

Colorado Ski Trip 2011

We just returned from ten days of visiting the beautiful mountains of Colorado!  My hubby grew up driving to northern Michigan to ski with his family.  He had a dream for our family to ski together. Over the last few years I conquered enough of my fear of heights to learn to ski down the easier slopes with D and the kids.  Now they zoom past me, but we all have fun!  We had fun times with some other friends and family along the way, too.  I am always so thankful for the fun memories that we create together on these trips.  Here are some photos to tell you a little bit about the journey.
