Collage Friday - Anniversary Edition!

*This post may contain affiliate links. Please see bottom of blog for policy. 

Welcome to Collage Friday! 

 Today is our 10th Wedding Anniversary!  Ten, WOW...A decade with the man of my dreams!  I can say without hesitation that these 10 years have been wonderful!  Honestly, not many ups and downs, mostly UPS!  He is a kind man that was sent down from God to keep me real.  To love me unconditionally and be my mate in life!  



Most home schoolers have been sharing their learning spaces these few last weeks of August. Here is a pic (last year) of our learning area - we usually sit at the table for studies but honestly outside and the rest of the house are really where we learn mostly! We are not back to school Full Time until October 1st. (two more vacations yet to go!)



We leave on Sunday for a long road trip!  Check this POST out to find out how the kids will be keeping busy on our long journey!



Friends, I pray your life is as blessed and fulfilled as mine!  Can't wait to see what the next 10 brings!

Join me over at Homegrown Learners for a fabulous link up of Collages!

National Chocolate Chip Day

Chocolate chips are an essential ingredient in dozens of delicious baked goods—chocolate chip cookies, chocolate chip pancakes, chocolate chip muffins, chocolate chip brownies, chocolate chip bagels, and many more.

She substituted with chopped up semi-sweet chocolate morsels and discovered that the pieces did not melt into the dough as she expected. Her cookies were an instant hit.
