The Scoop

Hi, I am Bonnie.
I am a thirty one year old mother of five. I am married to the love of my life, Brian. We met in our hometown when I was 17 and it has been quite the adventure since. I was a slightly spoiled only child raised by my father. It was a hard adjustment from that to being a wife and mother. But I have embraced it with all that I am and am absolutely loving life. We started of family right away so its hard to remember life without kids. Most people wait a little bit and have all their “fun” before they have kids. Not us, we are a little crazy that way. We have decided to take our children on our adventures with us.

Our ultimate goal in life is to be good parents. Our main priority in life is to help them to know God. Jesus is our Lord and Savior and above all we want our kids to really know and serve Him. We have learned so much in the 11 years that we have been parents and we learn a little more every day. There have been tears of joy and tears of pain. I would like to share with you our adventures and a little of what we have learned along the way.

There will be posts about our crazy, spur of the moment decisions, about our adventures in traveling across the country, there will be kid-friendly recipes from our organic kitchen. Hopefully I can inspire you to “reduce, reuse and recycle”. I will give you crafty ideas. Some posts will be about our homeschooling happiness, and posts about being a family with hearts for God. I hope you enjoy it!
