And of course you can ask a question of your own! Jade, what do you […]

Jade and the Umbrella

A couple of weeks ago, we bought some big red and white striped umbrellas to keep in the soaproom, so that we could let people on tours use them if it was raining. Well, we haven’t had a tour use them yet, but the Jonas family has been loving them. The other day it was […]

The Cross Country Season

A couple of weeks ago, I blogged about the boys winning the title of Homeschool Cross Country Champions. That was only the final highlight of a fantastic season. This season, the team spent hours listening to Coach Sweetland. This season, the team spent hours running warm ups, cool downs, and practices together. This season, the team […]

Ginger and Jade

Our house cat, Ginger, is a Daddy’s girl. But Jade thinks that Ginger is hers, and will spend hours with her. Ginger has always been good with Jade, despite hours of too much snuggle time. Bonus points if she gets to spend time with Daddy and Jade at the same time! (This picture is from […]
