Frugal Things
Target clearance I love Target's clearance section because I usually find amazing things. One year I found an air conditioner for just $50! This time I found a set of branch clippers for $10 and five mixed media journal books for $2.50 each (those things are really expensive at normal retail prices!) Amazon ebooks I… Continue reading Frugal Things

What I've been reading lately: I've been on a spooky book kick lately. This week I read We Have Always Lived in the Castle and am currently reading The Haunting of Hill House. I will say that Shirley Jackson has a twisted but brilliant mind! The first book has to be the darkest, eeriest book… Continue reading My Week (8.22.2021)

Our Homeschool Plans for 2021
Like usual, I cobbled our homeschool curriculum together from many different sources. I have yet to find one curriculum that fits my kids for all subjects, so we stick to our favorites and are willing to change if something is not working mid-year (I have done it many times) **This year is also a little… Continue reading Our Homeschool Plans for 2021

We are enjoying finding new books each month to read together. Our picture book choices for July were all over the place once again.
