Vaccinations: the debate that gets ugly
The time has come for us to address the giant elephant in the room… vaccinations. I mean, it is SUCH a hot topic that half the groups I am in have completely banned it from their vocabulary: “thou must not mention vaccinations lest the hoard of controversy descends upon us all!” Heaven forbid we disagree!

Picaboo Yearbooks Review
I suck at organizing photos! I love the idea of scrapbooking but the whole time thing isn’t working out so well for me. So I have about 5 years worth of photos sitting on our computer, slowing it down, and hiding in the infinate folds of my database. I have often paid up to $60 […]

A Video Home School Room Tour: Come Explore my School Room!
My school room has very very slowly developed over the years. Our basement used to have this huge room that was half separated by a wall, but not fully. Kind of weird. The one room had carpet the other one had a terrible linoleum that was all ripped up, the wall had a ton of […]
