Homestead Update || July 2021
Tomatoes and cucumbers are coming in, and we recently harvested our red potatoes. It is July on our small, newbie, homestead! I normally share a few thoughts from Let Me Be a Woman by Elisabeth Elliot on Fridays, but today I honestly haven't had a chance to read the chapters and compose a post. This … Continue reading Homestead Update || July 2021

So Much Vanity
Happy Tuesday, ladies! It has been a morning full of work...I've worked on Etsy orders, made a new plan for our goat feed rations, and harvested French Fingerling Potatoes with my little ones.

When We Walk Alone
Today is the Sabbath Day. My husband has told our older children that he will take them fishing this morning, while I rest at home with our little ones.

I believe most of her small … Continue reading Let Me Be a Woman Study Chapters 21 and 22
Does Being Frugal Have to be Difficult?
Being frugal doesn't mean being miserable. Frugality involves looking at your goals and spending your money wisely to bring them to fruition. For several years, we were ultra-frugal in just about every category in order to get out of consumer debt. This was difficult, but so worth it in the end. We pretty much sent … Continue reading Does Being Frugal Have to be Difficult?

Taking Care of Our Body Because It is God’s Temple
Taking care of our bodies is hard sometimes. As wives and mamas, we are usually busy. And when we aren't busy, resting seems awfully nice. Can you relate? I have been growing or nursing babies for 21 years now. During these phases, I usually stay hungry. It is difficult for me to really concentrate on … Continue reading Taking Care of Our Body Because It is God’s Temple
Covering Our Body Reveals Our Dignity
I usually do not write two blog posts about modesty in a row, but here I am. Summer is upon us, and we have a choice to make. We can choose to reveal our skin, or reveal our dignity instead. I highly recommend choosing dignity! As soon as Eve sinned against God in the garden … Continue reading Covering Our Body Reveals Our Dignity
How to Stay Comfortable and Modest This Summer
Yesterday, we decided to go on a hike near a local lake after working in the garden. The air was hot and humid, but besides the heat coming from the babe strapped to my back, I was quite comfortable. And yes, I was wearing a dress. At this point in my life, I am known … Continue reading How to Stay Comfortable and Modest This Summer

This morning I found a few moments … Continue reading Let Me Be a Woman Study Chapters 17 and 18
I’m Back on Instagram (For Now)
Happy Thursday, ladies! I can hardly believe we are nearing the end of the week.

I'm always so hungry while … Continue reading I’m Back on Instagram (For Now)
