My blog contains original content to reflect my life. I write about my family, raising five kids, trying out new recipes and sneaking in some good nutrition, trying to find balance in my life, homeschooling, good books, and great bargains. I love digital photography and enjoy posting pictures. I love to scrapbook and anything artsy; my blog design reflects that. I am opinionated and honest. I like to share with others things that I think would be helpful whether it's a site I have found, a new product or some household tip. I try to maintain a good sense of humor and sometimes my dry wit or sarcasm may come across in a post. We are trying to live frugal as we hope to be debt free by summer 2008 and buy a house.
