May is Graduation Month

Posted in Family, Homeschooling, and Thoughts

I’m going to apologize in advance because, during the month of May, I’ll be sharing a lot of things that are graduation related as we prepare for Munchkin’s graduation.

Posted in Reviews

Special thanks to Valley Food Storage for providing a sample meal for us to test in our home.
