Christmas, Hanukkah, and Advent Resources

My Elf by @sprittibee

I thought I would start off day one of Advent with a little list of Christmas, Hanukkah and Advent Traditions to give you some December food for thought. So before I fall into bed, too late again, with all these visions of what I have to do this week dancing in my head… Here are […]

Homeschool Hacks for the Library … and a Grief Observed

bookface (image not mine) @sprittibee

I’ve spent the last few days cataloging my book cases on GoodReads. I discovered recently that the app allows you to scan books with your smart phone by the UPC or the front cover “art”. I tried it out, mesmerized by how well it worked. I would say about 1 of 20 books on my […]

Advent Begins 2016

Amaryllis Christmas Flowers

I know it’s been a while since I blogged… in fact, I think this past November was the very first month I didn’t blog AT ALL since I began blogging in 2005. I am sure you can imagine, that a cancer diagnosis changes a lot of things, and I just let my blog take a […]

10 Children’s Books Worth Checking Out (and a give-away)

Salamander Dance

It has been a while since I cleaned off my children’s book review shelf and I have a slew of good books to bring to your attention this time. Many of these were given to me by the publisher or author to look at because they felt we were a good fit as a homeschool, […]

Elementary & Junior High Book Line-up and Give-away

A while back, I did a preschool book review and give away… and now I get to share a few elementary and junior high level books! I’ll start with the early on-your-own readers for the kindergarten and first grade level, and then move on up – all the way to an 8th grade level (and […]

Preschool Book Line-up and Give-away

One of the benefits of being a homeschool blogger with four kids in different stages of life (preschool through high school) is book reviews. I haven’t ever met a homeschool mom who doesn’t have a book addiction… and most homeschool moms, even if they are long past the elementary and preschool days, remember with a […]

Honey Cookies (Better than Snickerdoodles!)

These cookies are better than snickerdoodles. If you don’t know what a snickerdoodle is, you haven’t lived. OH. YES. You don’t believe me, do you? Honest to goodness, these cookies are THE BOMB. Like a golden treasure in a hidden cave, my children and I discovered the recipe for these wonderful cookies in a children’s […]

Spritti Who?

Howdy. I'm Heather.

I'm a Christian Wife, Foodie, Writer, Homeschool Teacher, Artist....

OH YEAH, I'm also a Professional Event, Portrait, Art & Wedding Photographer - (which currently is the only job I get paid for).

I'm also a DIY amateur, Gourmet Cook on a mission to eat clean with good reason - I was diagnosed with colon cancer in August of 2016 (read: bona-fide health nut), and I have a cacti collection that is bordering on a business... a hobby farm we are just now beginning as a new adventure for our family... and of course, as you might expect living in rattlesnake country, I'm a gun-toting Native Texan (Yeehaw!)

I've been trapping Google-searchers here since 2005.

Bless your little heart. I'm so glad you stopped by.
