Bible Curriculum 50% Off SALE

Our favorite bible curriculum is 50% off until February 3, 2015!! We love to study the Bible as a family, and Grapevine Studies allow us to.

 

Birth of Jesus

By using stick figures as you work through the lessons, you are helping your children engage both sides of the brain. When you engage both sides of the brain, the information you are learning sticks better and faster!!e

We had put our Grapevine Studies away at Christmas, and had not gotten back in since… We were struggling to get going again, with all the sickness we had and trying to get caught up. So, Thursday morning, two of my kiddos said they missed drawing and memorizing the verses they were drawing about… We WILL be diving back in this week!! I have it all set up and ready to go!!

Keeping Mom’s Nails Pretty

I have been loving keeping my nails a little nicer. I tried Jamberry a month ago, and fell in love. Little did I know my hubby LOVED me doing my nails. I hate polish, the smell, the time, the time to dry and the time to redo, because I didn’t wait for them to dry. So, Jamberry is AWESOME for me.

Jamberry is bringing back 12 Sister’s Style Exclusives from the last year and they will be available Black Friday through Cyber Monday! You heard us right, your favorite styles that you thought were gone forever, are back for a limited time starting Friday, November 28 at 12:01 a.m. through Monday, December 1 at 11:59 p.m. MDT

Black Friday (November 28) only, we are offering a FREE limited-edition Black Friday nail wrap when you spend $50 / C$60! This nail wrap will be automatically added to your shopping cart when it reaches the required amount. This exclusive design cannot be purchased on its own. Only one exclusive Black Friday wrap per order.

CYBER MONDAY
New plum Application Kits will be available and announced on Cyber Monday alongside the December Sister’s Style Exclusive. The new plum Application Kits will still include the same application tools as before, but they will now come in our new plum bag!

Black Friday collage

A note about using Jamberry… If your hands are in oily products or very hot water, the wraps will come off easier and quicker. I use kitchen gloves to help protect them. Also, DO NOT peel them off. Use acetone nail polish remover, olive oil, and heat. This will help keep your nails healthy!!

Gift Ideas for the Homeschool Mom

As a homeschool mom, I know that the extravagant gifts and high dollar gifts that many think of to give are not a reality for most homeschool moms.

For the most part we are a very practical bunch. However, there are a few things that most homeschool moms could use.

  • Encouragement
  • Supplies to make their job easier
  • Something fun for them

The Winter Summit desires to instill within the often weary and embattled homeschool mom the encouragement and empowerment she so desperately needs to finish her race well, to the glory of God.

Last Day for Teach Them Diligently Early Bird and a little more about the children’s program.

Today is the absolute final day to get in on the $45 Early Bird Teach Them Diligently Registration for a Convention near you!!

I can say, that my family and several of my friends are so excited for May to get here to be able to attend these conventions.  Who wouldn’t be with Pam Tebow, Heidi St. John, Ken Ham, Dr. Voddie Baucham and many more speaking? 

Today, on the Teach Them Diligently blog, they are discussing more about the Children’s Program Offerings.  My children are anxiously awaiting to attend some of these different offerings.  I also hear there is more to come in the future that will have your children begging to go!

Teach Them Diligently Convention is designed with entire family units in mind! It is our family’s desire that your family will come and be encouraged and equipped together.  So, we have a number of ways your children can get involved.

 

Exciting NEW Speaker Announcement:

Pat Roy and his wife, Sandy, created the Jonathan Park Creation Adventure Series, an audio drama thatJonathan Park is heard on more than 700 radio stations worldwide and has reached millions with the message of the Creator. A committed six-day creationist, Pat worked at the Institute for Creation Research (ICR) for over twelve years, in which time, he and his team took some of the most complex scientific proofs for creation and translated them into everyday language and concepts. Over the last decade, Pat has worked at Vision Forum as the writer and producer of the Jonathan Park project through which he delights in encouraging Christians to simply trust the truth of God’s Word. 

Our Family LOVES Jonathan Park Audios and they are a regular part of our homeschool days.  Pat will be speaking at all three conventions in May 2013.

So, hurry over to the Teach Them Diligently website and get registered for one or all of the May 2013 conventions today before the Early Bird Registration Ends!!

The Place to be in March and I Will be THERE!!

There is one place to be in March if you are a Christian Homeschool parent, and I get to be there.

Where

Spartanburg, South Carolina

at the

Teach Them Diligently

Convention

Teach Them Diligently Convention
“And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thine heart and with all thy soul and with all thy might. And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart. And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and thou shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up. And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thine hand, and they shall be as frontlets between thine eyes.” - Deuteronomy 6:5-8 KJV
Have you checked out the speaker list? Vendor List? Statement of Faith?
Did you see those three faces and names in that picture? Ken Ham, Dr. Voddie Baucham, and Doug Phillips? Yep, this is the place to be. The Homeschool convention of all conventions. The place for encouragement, support, help, and to be humbled. The place you will find out how and where to improve upon the logistics of your family, through strong Biblical guidance.
As a rural homeschooling mom, I find that support and encouragement can be a bit hard to find. This convention is going to be full of the support and encouragement that those of us homeschooling find we need. Not only that, but some of my online friends will now become faces and voices I know. I have met so many other homeschool bloggers and well, there are many of these online faces who will be there!
David and Leslie Nunnery have become quick friends over the last 5 or so months. The real, opportunity to meet them, is well, OVERWHELMING. These are the two people behind the convention, taking care of all the details. I can’t wait to meet them and thank them for the opportunity to experience this convention!
Dr. Voddie Baucham is my own little Christian Homeschool Dad hero. He has just enough humor to keep your attention and tons of real life experience to help you know he is able to speak from his heart on the homeschool and Christian parent topics. I can’t wait to see and hear him again.
Ken Ham, never heard him speak, but so ready to.
Heather Laurie, I have known Heather for several years online, and even worked with her many times. In fact we are in the middle of a project right now. Any parent that questions their ability to homeschool needs to hear Heather.
Paula and Nancy from A Journey Through Learning. I will finally get to meet my bosses, and hang out with them at our booth. Come by and say hi!!
Will you be able to come? Get Registered for $40. While at the convention, I will be tweeting, Facebooking and blogging live, from my own personal, and my Peace blog accounts and the A Journey Through Learning accounts. So, if you aren’t able to go, you will be able to see what is going on.

Top Ten Gifts for the Homeschool Mom

Most homeschool moms don’t have that “normal” list of wants or needs. My husband says I can be hard to buy for…WHAT? A non stained shirt and a pair of jeans that don’t bind and pinch me…Hey, I have had six children and my shape is not the same as it used to be, nor do fashion designers design for it. But, that is another story.

The homeschool mom typically wants (many times secretly) practical things that will help her have a smooth homeschool “ride”.

Things that will add a creative spin on boring subject. Things that will streamline her time spent planning, so she can spend more time with her family.

Most of my suggestions have a direct to the items via my Amazon widget. If you purchase anything from that widget, I will receive a small monetary compensation.

1. A printer nice printer that will duplex, and is economical on ink. I love the HP 8500 and 8600 series printers. I have the 8500 and LOVE it!!

2. A case of paper to use. Believe me when I say that if you are the husband spending the money on these items, that it will save you!! I now use more eBooks and print them myself for just few cents.

3. A Laminator. I have a very nice little laminator.

4. Her favorite drink

5. Book Shelves

6. eReader or Tablet PC

7. Storage shelves and drawers

8. Chocolate stash.

9. Comb Binder

10. Nice pair of jeans and shirt. Yep, Wrangler Q Baby, Ultimate Riding Jeans are my personal mom of six body shape favorites!!
