Learning TaeKwonDo

Posted in Family, Fitness, and Homeschooling

Munchkin wasn’t completely sure of this, and the idea of this brand new activity was a little daunting. Thankfully, much to Munchkin’s surprise, there are several other girls roughly her age taking the class with her. Her class is three days a week which is taking some getting use to as both Munchkin and I like to be…

An Organized Gluten Free Pantry

Posted in Homemaking

I definitely feel blessed to have a nice sized pantry at this house. Normally base-housing pantries (in our experience) leave much to be desired when it comes to pantries, so this was a nice surprise when we moved in a little over 3 years ago. (It’s hard to believe it’s been that long already.) The down side to a large pantry is that it tends to become a catch-all mess if you don’t stay on top of organization. Well, our pantry was in a sorry state when I decided to tackle it this morning. Things were here and there, and…

Thankful for Water

Posted in Christian Life

Living in arid Arizona, I’ve come to appreciate water a lot more than I had in the past. When we lived on the east coast, we would often find ourselves feeling water logged due to the amount of rain that we received. That didn’t mean that we never went through times of drought – we did, but it was nothing like what we experience here. We talk about the early settlers who were traveling across country, and what it would have been like for them. What a difficult journey to make. If you ran out of water, you were seriously…
