Don’t let Instagram fool you—😅Homeschool holiday crafting is super messy. Loving all the #homeschool posts but many of them seriously hold up a magnifying glass to the areas in which I could use a little grace, because they’re all 😍 *perfection* — and ours? Well ours is definitely not that 😂 Praying for patience with handicrafts because they really are an amazing way to learn, they’re just definitely not my strength. Kids: “Mom let’s build something!” Me: “Or not, say we did and go on a hike instead!” 🤷🏼‍♀️😄 . . . . #momlifeisthebestlife #honestmotherhood #candidhomeschoolmom #mymotherhood #advent #slowandsacredadvent #homeeducation #homeschooling #momsohard #liveauthentic #momlife #motherhoodunplugged #motherhoodsimplified #handicrafts #crafting #truth #documentyourdays #ourcandidlife #behindthescenes #garland

❄️Holidays are what you make them... ⭐️ I recently asked an overwhelmed friend what she would do if she could CHOOSE how she spends the month of December with her little family. The holidays have become a source of contention and has become more stressful than joyful. You can read more of our conversation in my last article {link in bio}. ⭐️ How will you choose to spend your holidays? If you’re already feeling anxious might I recommend listening to your heart, slowing down and actively choosing how you spend your time? Do you say, “But there’s so much to do!” ⭐️ Is there? Whether you’re the get-it-done kind of person or you’re constantly feeling like you’ve not done enough, the good news is that YOU get to decide the deity to whom you’ll bow. ⭐️ Those of us enjoying slow living aren’t immune to stress (hello! 🤪😅) but we’re also not caught up in our society’s ideas of how we “should” be celebrating. Friends, God did not intend for us to become slaves to stress during the time we should be delighting in His son’s birth. So take heart, my loves, for your time and your family’s is worth far more than you know and you CAN choose how you’re spending it. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ #motherhoodsimplified #pnwonderland #oregonexplored #wildandfree #minimalism #minimalist #letthemexplore #pnwfamilies #upperleftusa #northwestisbest #livesimply #liveauthentic #wanderlust #adventure_culture #explore #outdoors #getoutside #raiseawildchild #boys #thenwadventure #stayandwander #motherhoodunplugged #motherhood #momblogger

#tbt A Midsummer Night’s Dream. 🖤 I love us and our eclecticism (did I say that right?) 🤷🏼‍♀️😄 I love how we’re growing as individuals & expanding our interests as a family, always up for learning new-to-us things we never thought we’d be interested in. (Baja desert racing one day & Shakespeare ballet the next? Sign us up!) Life is always fun with your favorite folk, no matter the adventure. 🥰⛰✈️ . . . . #familyiseverything #lovethem #theportlandballet #shakespeare #family #liveauthentic #ourcandidlife #pdx #balletlovers #familyadventures #intentionalliving #momlife #momlifeisthebestlife #homeschoolfamily #traveltheworld #fambam #lovemylife #livelifetothefullest #motherhoodunplugged #mymotherhood #familytime #showtime

🌿 If all you do is love on your kids today, consider it a win. 💚 . . . . #candidchildhood #pnwfamilies #childhoodunplugged #upperleftusa #thenwadventure #goexplore #adventurethatislife #stayandwander #wanderlust #hiking #hikingwithkids #our_everyday_moments #homeschooling #siblinghoodlove #momlifeisthebestlife #siblings #motherhoodsimplified #outdoors #runwildmychild #raiseawildchild #motherhoodunplugged #motherhood

“Little Drummer Boy” gets me every time. 😭😭😭 Maybe it’s because it shows how we all have something to offer in our own uniqueness. (Our son is also drummer so maybe the combination?) 🤷🏼‍♀️ What song(s) gets you every time? ✨🎄 #pnw #hikingaddict #adventurethatislife
