Today I stepped out of my comfort zone and into something that I have never been very comfortable with – I presented my first class all by myself! Surprisingly enough I was not nervous, not worried and was incredibly comfortable. Why? Because I was sharing our life with essential oils. I was telling my storyContinue reading “Stepping Out Of Your Comfort Zone”
Kids Life | Beach Stream and Tadpoles

My Gardening Friend | Grasshopper
While weeding the garden this morning I noticed out of the corner of my eye something very tiny moving in the grass. What I found was a tiny little grasshopper happily jumping through the grass. Lucky for me he was quite photogenic! :) He looks big here, but in reality he was merely 1″ longContinue reading “My Gardening Friend | Grasshopper”
Waterfall Nature Walk | May 4, 2015

Darkness and Ice in April
I was up a little earlier listening to the wind whistling and whipping around, ice hitting the windows and deck, and then all was silent. Soon our room was filled with little voices who were woken up by pure darkness… *insert sarcastic mommy face here* So we all slept until about 630 when the kidsContinue reading “Darkness and Ice in April”
