Welcome to Beautiful Family Friday! Today I’m sharing about a family field trip that we took last weekend. Be sure to link-up your best posts below! Homeschool Field Trips Last Saturday we went to the 2013 Homeschool Day at the New Market Battlefield hosted by Home Educators Association of Virgina. This is always a very [...]
A large part of my childhood was spent living just minutes outside of Washington D.C. Spending Saturdays at the National Gallery of Art, or riding the metro to the National Zoo were common place. Even now that I’m a grown up (at least, I think that I’m a grown up ) I love that my [...]
Last weekend our family had the privilege of attending the Teach Them Diligently Convention in SC. This trip was 3-days of family refreshment. photo credit The Teach Them Diligently Convention had three focuses: Christian homeschool, discipleship, and parenting. All three focuses line up with our heart and vision for our family. My husband and I [...]
This week our homeschool life started with us spending New Year’s weekend at a ski resort in WV {thanks mom }. We went swimming, snow tubing, ice skating and fed fat deer out our back balcony. That’s educational, right? Liam turned ONE on New Year’s day! I know, I can’t believe it either. Oh, he [...]

P is for Pit-Stop on the ABSEE Photo Meme I’m a field trip mom. Yup. There, whew, I’m glad that’s out. There’s plenty of things that I don’t do. For instance, I am not the science-experiments-at-the-kitchen-table-mom. The only time vinegar and baking soda come out at our house is for cheap cleaning. I’m also [...]
We’ve been working pretty hard around here lately… On our recent roadschooling adventure we visited the beautiful Snowshoe Mountain Resort. A ski resort in the summer is filled with lots of fun – here is their summer activities. I personally feel that Snowshoe is the east coast equivalent of Park City. Quainter, true, but [...]
