It's the country life for us!

We've made it to Oklahoma and have been here 3 weeks. We've remodeled our house from a one bedroom, two bathroom daycare to a two bedroom, one bathroom house. It's tiny but it's working. We have all the main construction done, new walls, custom closets, and paint all completed by my wonderful hubby and myself with a little help from family here. We have about 80% of our stuff unpacked. I still have a few kitchen things to figure out a place for and LOTS of homeschooling and office stuff to figure out.

I'm actually surprised at how well everything is fitting. I will post some pictures in the near future. We just got the computer set up and I have many more things to accomplish today before I can work on getting pictures.

Everything has been good so far and we are loving the country life! The boys have a fenced in yard that's close to an acre to explore. They have a trampoline that belongs to their cousins that they share and we just put together the swing set this morning. Not to mention all the great outside toys that Grandma and Popa sent with us.

Keep checking back for updates, pictures and fun things as we adjust from city/suburb life to the country life. Some things that will be coming in the future is chickens and goats and then next spring our very first garden that will be the back unfenced acre! Between the big bugs and spiders and the fact that I've never had a green thumb and my fear of chickens promises for some laughs for you!

The League of Incredible Vegetables: Movie Review

Picture borrowed from  Christian Film Database Another movie review! I was so thrilled when I was walking through Best Buy before Christmas and saw this  DVD sitting on the shelf. If you are a boy mom like myself you know that they love super heroes. I struggle to find age appropriated super hero movies for Monkey to watch. He loves Spiderman, Batman, Iron Man, ect. and he has not seen any of the movies/shows that go along with them. Wait...he did watch The Avengers with Daddy one day while I was out. I haven't seen that one so I can't say what I think of it for a 3 year old. Anyway, I love Veggie Tale movies! I think that they do a good job of teaching lessons to kids in a way that they understand and I love the lessons they teach! This one is great because it is about fear and how if you trust God fear can't freeze you. If you have kids, especially boys this movie is great! It helps them get the superheros they want to watch without the bad guys th...

Y3W: I'm Not Perfect

I'm not perfect. I think you already know that as no one is perfect on this earth even though sometimes people can look like it on the outside. I do post many things about the good things going on in my life because I would rather talk about those then dread on the bad or negative things. However today I'm going to make sure you know that I'm not perfect by a long shot. Since about last Wednesday (so over a week now)I have been struggling. I haven't been doing great in my alone time in the Word, I haven't been praying like I was, I'm craving foods that I shouldn't and eating them instead of praying about it and have gained a few pounds back, I'm not doing great on the house work and I'm struggling in making the right decisions in my parenting as Monkey is entering into this new independent/I'm not listening stage. I know what has caused this struggle and I have been working on it but I have been doing alone and not letting God help me through...
