This blog is about our large family of nine children, as we home school, play, manage daily life, and live the military life, all while trying to give glory to God! It is also to help friends and family far away keep in touch and watch our children grow!

Simplifying
We've been working on clarifying the goals and direction of our family. We're trying to get a better vision of where God is leading us, and how we can best "glorify and enjoy Him." We have continually seen the need to learn to be content and focus not on the things of the world but on what God's Word says is important. In an effort to journal the simplifying part of this (and get some accountability too ;)) I'm going to start a series of blog posts on "Keeping (or getting) it simple". I hope it will also be an encouragement to others. I'd also love to hear what you are doing in these areas or your ideas.
I'm going to start with posts on how we keep Christmas simple including traditions, Homeschooling through the holidays, Decor, cooking/baking, and gifts. These are things we do that help us enjoy the season as a family and keep the focus on why we are celebrating Christmas.
