finding moments that make your soul come alive

My kids love the homemade snack mix I make for their daily snack bowls. I just find things I think they will like and mix it together. This has #Aldiusa cheddar turtles, #fritos, and #chex and some cheese puffs. Its definitely a favorite that I've put together and mixing it keeps the kids from getting tired of it. #momlife #homeschoollife #organized #homemaking

In our house, we buy baking soda in a 10-pound bag. That may seem excessive, but we use it every day for so many different things. These are just a few ways we use baking soda. How do you use it? How did your grandma use it. #bakingsoda #goodolddays #grandmashouse #homeremedies #momlife #homemaking #crunchymom

This invention from my MIL (@authormelissageorge) is a definite winner for my kids and a go-to on school mornings. My kids do not do well with a sweet breakfast, so this is a savory take on French Toast. Add spices to your heart's content that suite your taste. Mine like it without anything extra, but I could see Tbomb putting Tajin on his. #breakfast #homeschool #homemaking #organized #momlife #family

Afternoon snack bowls for my kids and husband from a couple of years ago. They have evolved quite a bit since then, but now we do full lunch bowls. Comment if you would like to know more about how I manage daily lunches and snacks with my hungry kids. #family #homemaking #kidseatincolor #organizedmom

Years ago, my FIL used a flashlight and orange to illustrate to Tbomb why it is dark in some parts of the world while it is daylight here. He still remembers this lesson and I still remember soaking in his face when realization dawned on him. One of my favorite things about homeschool is seeing their faces when they learn something new and have those "aha!" moments. I will forever cherish these times with them.

I'm so very impressed at this girl's ability to teach herself anything. #handcrochet #homeschoollife #family #momlife #babygırl

She's doing such a wonderful job on this project. I'm so proud of her. For this incredibly soft and beautiful yarn, comment "yarn" and I'll send the link over. It's very affordable. (Yes, I'm trying out this new tool)

Looking forward to a camping trip? Let these tips help make your trip more enjoyable. https://carionliving.blogspot.com/2024/06/10-tips-for-organized-camp-site.html

I just do not have the words for the feels I felt during this movie. Seriously, the tears were pouring down my face. I've forever been a fan of Kevin Sorbo and Cuba Gooding, Jr. However, nothing I've ever seen them in has compared to The Firing Squad. This is something that happened in 2015, so it wasn't that long ago. The Firing Squad is a true story of a man convicted of drug trafficking and sentenced to death by firing squad at a prison in Indonesia. He went in an atheist who was also bitter and somewhat entitled. He even tried to escape and was caught. In solitary confinement, as a result of his attempted escape, he found salvation. Because of the change in the man and the faith he exhibited, lives all around him were changed forever. That's all I'm giving away. It is such a great movie that you must see. Tim Chey, the directory and screenwriter urges us to participate in the 1 Million Souls to Jesus campaign and I'm all about it. Please share this movie, get some tickets, take people, pray, and witness to all you can. Let's make heaven crowded! Be sure to check the website because there will actually be some free screenings in some cities- your city might be included!

A few minutes after this, the frog got lose in our tent. By the way, a spice bottle doesn't work well for containing a tiny frog....

Turtle stew on our last night of camping (it's actually Brunswick stew but they don't have to know that)
