Slackline Fun

Posted in Family, Fitness, Outdoor Adventures, and Reviews

This post contains affiliate links. I purchased this slackline kit at a discount to provide feedback based upon my family’s experience with it. Do you remember when you were little and you tried to balance on anything and everything? Most kids start out balancing on things close to the ground and then work their way up to higher things. Munchkin loved trying to balance on a variety of things when we went for walks or to the park. As she got older, she liked to try to walk (with assistance) on rails and short fences. Balance beams at gymnastics were…

Beautiful Word Bible

Posted in Christian Life, and Reviews

I received a review copy of this Bible from the publisher. This post contains affiliate links. Munchkin started attending a new youth group this past fall. One of her fellow college students recommended it to her, so we tried out the church (and youth group). It was a good fit for her, and the sermons were Biblical.

If you’ve ever tried to follow…

We needed one place that we could relax and breath – a place where we could be ourselves and find comfort. During this season, some things around the home have been pushed…

I received a review copy of this book from the publisher. We’ve recently entered a new season in our lives where homeschooling is behind us. We now have 2 family members in college – Daddy and daughter. I’m starting to look at some non-traditional ways that I can bring in some extra money to help with not only the college expenses but also to pay down our mortgage faster. Money Making Mom takes a good look at the variety of ways a mom can make income whether it be from a traditional job or non-traditional job, inside or outside the…

Chris Tomlin’s Adore: Christmas Songs of Worship CD Review and Giveaway

Posted in Reviews

Many thanks to Propeller Consulting, LLC for providing a sample of the product in exchange for this review and post. Yes, I got to listen to more Christmas music prior to Thanksgiving. **grin** Out of respect for D’s preferences, I’ve been listening when he’s not home. He’ll get to listen to them after Thanksgiving which is when he likes to start listening to Christmas music. I’ve always enjoyed music from Chris Tomlin, so I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to check out this new Christmas album. It did not disappoint. The album features 11 songs: He Shall Reign Forevermore Adore…
