~Our Faith is in the Lord Jesus Christ~

Why I'm blogging...

Welcome to our lives, our farm, and our family. Here is were we give you a view into our daily walk. I pray that it might encourage you while giving you a real life glance deeper into our lives. May we honor the Lord in all we do and say. My greatest hope is that anything you admire within our family points you right back to the Lord Jesus Christ and our love for HIM.

Homeschool Fieldtrip - Harn Homestead, a step back in time.


This last week we were blessed to get to take a fun day with friends and head to OKC for a field trip. We attended the 'Land Run' day at the Harn Homestead. Most of the children dressed in period clothing (and a few of the brave parents too), then we headed back in time to see how things were done in the olden days.

We played games, staked tents, chose what we would take on our wagon trip, made rope, and then enjoyed a nice picnic lunch AFTER we staked our claim in the Land Run reenactment.

Josh and Miss A wait for the gun shot...then it's off to lay claim to a property




Before the day ended, we headed down the road to the OK State Capital for an official tour of the state house.




One of my favorite parts of homeschooling is sharing living history with the children. We had a great time!
