About Me

I'm Stacy - a disciple of Christ, an Army wife, and a homeschooling mom to our 7 year old daughter. I spend my days doing fun science projects, going on field trips, cooking gluten-free meals, taking photos, reading, blogging & managing the home. I'm constantly behind on scrapbooking and want to learn how to crochet more than scarves, but there are only so many hours in the day.

I believe that shoes should always be optional, life is better at the beach, and chocolate is a necessary food group! More details about me & my family

Homemade Detective Kit

Since Lovebug’s birthday fell right in the middle of her Science Detective Camp I thought it would be fun to give her a present that went along with the theme.  I didn’t want to spend much money because the camp itself was her main present, but I also wanted something for her to open.  I was . . . → Read More: Homemade Detective Kit

4th of July on Fort Bragg

Yesterday, Lovebug and I went to the 4th of July celebration on post.  It was one HOT, crazy day!  I was able to reserve a spot ahead of time by paying $25 for a 10×10 foot space with a canopy tent already set up for me. SO glad I did – totally worth it!  If Hubby . . . → Read More: 4th of July on Fort Bragg

Emily’s Birthday DAY

The day after her party was Emily’s actual birthday, so we got to celebrate twice!  She started the day at Science Camp just like the rest of the week, and then we spent the afternoon at home.  She had received a package from Daddy that she couldn’t wait to open!  He sent her some cute wooden . . . → Read More: Emily’s Birthday DAY

Emily’s 7th Birthday Party

We had Emily’s party the day before her actual birthday.  She wanted a swimming party, so we used the neighborhood pool on post.  They also have a clubhouse that we were able to use for free, and it was a perfect place to set up! We had to put down a deposit, but we got it . . . → Read More: Emily’s 7th Birthday Party

Happy Father’s Day 2011!

(posting this a little early so Hubby can see it when Father’s Day starts on his side of the world)

Like father, like daughter!

I still remember Hubby’s face when I found out I was pregnant. He was beyond excited! In the delivery room, he was mesmerized with bringing his baby into the world.  Once she . . . → Read More: Happy Father’s Day 2011!

In honor of Memorial Day, the Airborne & Special Operations Museum in Fayetteville has created a “Field of Honor” filled with American flags.  According to their website,

Happy Saint Patrick’s Day!

Are you wearing green today?  This year we celebrated with Smoothie Pops!  We prepared them last night, so they would be frozen this morning.  Lovebug was so excited that she got to have a popsicle for breakfast! 

Why not?  It’s made with vanilla yogurt, bananas, & spinach.  That’s it!  I just dumped it all in . . . → Read More: Happy Saint Patrick’s Day!

Happy Birthday, Dr. Seuss!

Today is the 107th anniversary of Dr. Seuss’ birthday! Unfortunately he passed away in 1991, but before his death he published many, many wonderful children’s books.  Many of his books remain favorites of our family like Horton Hears a Who, Hop on Pop, and There’s a Wocket in My Pocket.

What are your favorites?

Happy Valentine’s Day!

We have such fun plans for today and are having somewhat of a backwards day.  We are starting with a fieldtrip, followed by schoolwork.  We are heading out to check out a local Airborne museum and wander around downtown.  We drove through there recently when we went to the library and saw a bunch of cute . . . → Read More: Happy Valentine’s Day!
