New Family Pictures

Posted in Family, and Photography

I’m rather funny about getting new family pictures before any major event such as a deployment or surgery.  It’s just how I am, and thankfully, my family doesn’t mind.  lol!  Daddy always enjoys having new pictures of his girls.  **grin** Since D’s surgery is Monday afternoon, we decided that today would be a good day to head out to a local hiking area not too far from here to take pictures.  Because D has been in so much pain, we needed a spot where we could drive right up to it, and he wouldn’t have to walk/hike very far.  We…

Posted in Homeschooling, and Photography

To budget or not to budget… that is the question for our homeschool this Monday morning. We’re in a unique situation for a military and homeschooling family.  We have an only child.  It’s definitely not the norm for either of these circles, but it is the norm for us.  We embraced the uniqueness of our family situation given to us by the Lord.  Being that we do have an only, we are able to spend more on schooling if necessary.  That being  said, I like to keep costs down as much as possible because we want to be good stewards…
