Lunch: Simplified {Yumbox}

Friends, I have to share this with you!  I have found a way to bring more peace and order to our homeschool lunch routine. I'm sure you're thinking it's lunch, slap some PB & J on a piece of bread and move on, but with allergies, preferences, and a baby/toddler with only 4 teeth, it's so much ...

Reusing Baby Food Containers for Snacks

These little baby food containers make the perfect snack containers. Pre-portioned and ready to grab snacks help us all stay on track. •Normally I would just recycle something like this, but this is my year of consuming less and be more intentional. •Okay, actually "normally" all of the baby food ...

Sleep is a glorious thing

 This is the most sleep I've gotten in foreverrrrr.  It was highly interrupted, but I spent this many hours in my bed. Woot Woot!! 🎉 I average like an hour or two a night usually, so this was a ridiculously good treat.  Thank you, Mr. Awesome, for sending me to bed, putting the baby to bed, AND ...

I have always had a desire to live simple while striving to be more intentional and working to do things slightly better than I did the day, week, month, or year before.

I appreciate putting more emphasis on people and experiences, than material things.  I attribute this to my {mostly} unplugged childhood.

I was born in Minnesota and after moving to Iowa I was able to go back for well over a decade to visit with my grandparents in the same home that my parents brought me home to as an infant.  As a child I loved hearing my Grandpa Link tell stories and adored spending time in the kitchen learning from my Grandma Edna. I believe those admirable character traits of my grandparents are woven into the fibers of who I am today.

My husband and I met 4 days after my 18th birthday, we were just friends for only a week before deciding dating and ‘forever’ were in our plans.

Together we built our dream home on the edge of town where we are creating our modern city-life homestead while we raise and homeschooling our four children.

I love sharing pieces of our life with hopes of inspiring you to live slightly better too!

Welcome. ♥ I am SO glad you’re here!

Welcome! I am so glad you're here! I'm Quincey. I'm a wife and homeschool mom in the great state of Iowa. I'm passionate about bringing a little Jesus and practical encouragement to the tired moms of the world. I drink massive amounts of coffee and worship often to help me on this journey.
