I finally did it! Something I've been talking about for years...Since we moved to Havre (4 years ago - has it been THAT long?). I took the plunge and started a book club. I was part of one in WA and attended for a  few years there. I still love to check up on those fantastic women through Facebook and their blogs. There is something magical about sharing adventures with fellow readers. You

Over the past week I've pressure canned a total of 29 pints of meat: beef, pork, and venison.  I had 2 pints not seal (because I forgot to wipe off the rims before putting on the lids and rings :-p).  Both pints were pork, and they were so delicious! I was surprised at how much meat fit into a pint.  2 venison roasts filled 4 pints.  I found 2.5-3 pork chops fit in a pint jar.  I've also saved

The past few days I've been trying to clean out our freezer.  A few years ago we decided to eat a lot less meat. Unfortunately it was right after we had bought an entire cow, AND won a hog.  I sold off some of the meat last year and the rest we've been slowly working on eating. Two days ago I raided the freezer and found several short ribs, a few top round roasts and several cuts of pork left.

After canning a bunch of dried beans, I was chatting with a friend of mine about how great it is to have canned food ready to heat up.  She shared with me how much she loves her smaller pressure cooker, designed to cook and steam food rather than can it.  I was intrigued. My mom had a small pressure cooker while I was growing up. All I could remember her cooking in it were the dried pinto

We've been plugging along reading the Book of Mormon as a family.  We started it in January last year in the hopes of finishing by the end of the year.  Though we read nightly, we just didn't make it.  We've been planning a family vacation in Feb. down to Southern California.  During scripture reading tonight, I suggested that we make it a goal to finish by the time we leave.  We have 142

During the Christmas season this year, Abby, Caleb, and I got to focus on sharing the gospel with those that came to our show.  We were part of the Montana Actor's Theater cast that put on The Forgotten Carols.  I have never seen the original play, but for years, I have loved the songs that Michael McLean wrote.  This play was an adaptation that has never been performed before.  I understand

So for the moment, this is where all the clothes are except mine. My clothes are still back in the closet, but we'll be moving them and all the rest of the things in that

My laptop screen died today, and I'm hooked up to the kids' monitor. I wanted to quickly load a collage I made of our trip we took last weekend. We stayed in a Forest Service cabin called Zip's in the Montana forest next to Glacier National Park. It was AMAZING!

To say that Mimi is fond of her new little sister is an understatement. If only I could be paid every time she asked to hold Elzie or smothered her with kisses. I just love when they are so little and curl up on your chest to sleep. This time goes by way too quickly. Grandma G and Elzie meeting for the first time! We finally figured out how to stop the flash so she would have her eyes open

So... I've a newfound passion. Kent bought a book a few months ago. He finally read it and started trying out some of the things taught in the book. The book is called the Emotion Code by Dr. Bradley Nelson. To be honest, it was just too "out there" for me. I know! Crazy! I'm one of the nuttiest people I know and I'm pretty open to new ideas and therapies that are "natural". But the theories in

I've been pretty busy lately and I've received questions via email and in the comment sections of my posts. People have been asking where I learned about herbs and natural healing. It all started almost 2 years ago when I came upon a class that was offered online through the School of Natural Healing. It is based in Springville, UT and was founded by Dr. John R. Christopher. I had read about

Several classes were taught, such as: Public Speaking (my

So I found this recipe on a few different sites and thought I would try it out. It's supposed to be safe for HE washers and so far it hasn't messed mine up :-) The difference is that you use just 1/4 cup per load for the HE and 1/2 cup per normal washer load.Instead of just giving you the recipe I'll give credit to the site that I actually used the recipe from The Family Homestead.

Due to some different things Kent has read, we have decided to trim down our already slim diet choices, even less (hopefully not a lasting change). It's been interesting to say the least. The biggest change has been that we are no longer eating any grain, unless it has been sprouted. Surprisingly, it has actually made thinking up dinner a little easier.

I'm due to write another post for the Latter-Day homeschooling site. I'm thinking about different topics and I'm wondering if I should write about whether you're a mom that is a "doer" or a "relater". I'm wondering if this even makes sense...Some moms love to plan and create an activity to do with their children, and through this teach their children different principles. I'd classify these

I had to share another triumph! A friend of ours broke out in a crazy rash that they originally believed was shingles. I printed out some info for her and took her a bag of herbs for treatment, as well as the most amazing ointment in the world (BF&C ointment). The treatment would be to bathe in as hot of water as she could stand to draw out as much of the toxins as possible. I then told

I have one last thing I decided I'd share. I few weeks ago I shared a link to a new site called Latter-DayHomeschooling. I asked to be added to their blog roll when I found out about it. The creator came to check out my site (to make sure it was a decent site, with Poopyhead in the title, you just never know :-). After browsing a few of my posts she emailed and asked if I would be one of the

Mimi had a special art day at her preschool and I really liked this photo of us.This is the photo from the night that I took the girls to go see Annie.Willsie is ready to go! Or is he missing something?This picture just makes me laugh :-) Just for fun...Tell me what your caption would be.

Josh had a birthday in January and he wanted to invite the whole town...At least it seemed that way. There were over 20 kids, and Kent planned a glorious pirate party. They pinned the gold on the X (pin the tail on the donkey/pirate version). They also had some serious sword fighting with breadsticks. They even shot marshmallow cannonballs at a papercup castle. The grand finale was going on a

I'd thought I'd share some the pictures that we took of the winter months here in Montana. Especially now that it's looking more like spring and the snow has melted! Kent took this out of the sunroom window. That's not snow on the tree. It's hoar frost. I remember seeing hoar frost a lot on my mission in Hungary, but I never knew what it was called. When I see it here, it's the only time I

Grandma was kind enough to watch all 5 kids so that Kent and I could go on a vacation to Tampa. He had a conference that was all expense paid, so all we had to purchase was my ticket. How could we pass that up? I spent the days sleeping, studying, and just doing whatever I wanted! It was fantastic. The weather was warm and when Kent was finished we took the trolley to a historical part of Tampa

On March 14th we were blessed with a visit from my mom. We were so lucky to have her with us! She celebrated her birthday with us on the 22nd. This action photo was taken of her blowing out the candles on the "raw" cake that we made her. Her expression is priceless! I wonder how long before she tells me to take this one down :-) She came to see Abby and Kent in Joseph and the Amazing

There is a new website I thought I would share. From what I understand, there are guest authors (all LDS Homeschoolers) that tackle different topics, from what does your day look like, to book reviews. The site isn't just for homeschoolers either. It has info on how to help your kids to love reading, ideas for FHE, etc. If you'd like to check it out just click here.I particularly liked

I can remember asking myself that question a few years ago. What was all the hubbub about anyway?Within this last year, I saw two documentaries that really changed the way that I look at food. One is Food, Inc which is available on Netflix to watch instantly. The second is The Future of Food, which you can watch on www.hulu.com.The first film is more about the food that we eat now and where it

Parental Rights is something I particularly feel strongly about. If you have not heard about this movement, and you have children, want children, or care about how children are raised, I encourage you to look into this amendment. I particularly liked this article that I was emailed this morning. If you are interested in learning more about this topic, please visit the site

The last few days have been particularly enjoyable as I have been able to help people learn more about herbs. These are some of the great experiences I've had over the last few days and months.It's interesting that when people are suffering, and they have been to the doctor, but nothing is working, just how desperate they become. They are willing to try almost anything to make the pain go away

Things are just going well. I have to admit...when they aren't going well, I'm largely at fault. I find that I get sucked so easily into spending hours online, just browsing, checking email, FB, and wasting valuable time, yet I'm always feeling like there is never enough "me time". These last two weeks I have drastically limited myself from getting on the computer and have retaken the position

The kids have a speech class tomorrow (Abby and Caleb). The assignment was to have a joke to tell. So all of us were sitting around telling jokes to see which on they liked best. I told this joke, it's one I've known since college.What's the difference between a Harley Davidson and a Hoover Vacuum? Caleb quickly answered..."The vacuum sucks?" Which I thought was as funny as the real punchline..

Some people have asked me to post more natural remedies that I use. Today I'm not going to talk about a remedy per se, but preventative action. The last few days we've had smoothies. I haven't really wanted them, because it's like wanting a hot chocolate on a warm summer day...Cold stuff just doesn't sound as scrumptious when it's negative temps out. Anyhoo...We've had smoothies because it's

The prices will be good until Dec. 31st. So if you're still thinking of taking the class, JUST DO IT! You can look at my last post for more info.Just my two cents...Even if you aren't that interested in natural remedies, worse case scenario...if you didn't have access to modern meds and you had taken the class, at least you would know what to do herbally to treat yourself and your family.

I don't know if anyone is interested, but I thought I'd let ya'll know. The school that I've been attending is going to be raising it's prices in the next day or so. It was actually supposed to take effect today, but they said they have received so many questions in emails they are postponing the price raise for a few more days.The Family Herbalist course is only $100 and it will go to $295

Here are some pictures that I took last night during the dress rehearsal. Abby (and everyone else involved) did a fantastic job tonight!Our adopted Grandma, Nana Carole, put together a beautiful bouquet to give to Abby at the end of the performance. I gave the bouquet to Mimi and told her to run it up to Abby as they finished the bow. Instead of handing it up, Mimi ran the length of the stage

Abby's Big SoloToday was the Piano and Pipes concert. It is held at the First Lutheran church in town and is an amazing musical occasion celebrating the birth of Christ. Several choirs and musical groups perform and it's very moving. Abby performed with our ward choir last year and chose to again this year. She was asked by the director (Angela Pratt) to sing a solo this year. I was so proud

Sometimes it's hard living the life that Kent and I have decided to live. I sometimes wonder if people think that we woke up one day and just thought..."Hmmm, don't you think it would be fun to just keep our kids home all day and not ever send them to school. People will think us and our kids are freaks, won't that be great?"Or how about,"Let's become vegans! I've always loved those granola

It is called the Snow Child and she got chosen for the part of the Snow Child!We are so proud of her and needless to say, she is very excited! The play will be performed on Dec. 11-12, and 17-19th.

This is an interview with a KGB agent that defected to the US. I think it was filmed in the '70's. He explains the role of the media in the "demoralization of a country" and that the transformation takes 15-20 years to happen due to the "demoralizing education" necessary to affect an entire generation. According to his sequence of events we are near the end of the destabilization period (the

We have a rental house there and the renters moved, so we needed to make sure everything was in working order for the new tenants.

So I took my final last night for my herbal class. I haven't taken a final since graduating college in 1994...it's weird to be back in an academic atmosphere, even if it is online. Before each quiz I found my heart starting to race because I wasn't sure I was prepared! I was completely stressed about my final and found myself putting off the study time. I had passed every quiz with 100% and

Never having lived around much farming or ranching, living in Montana has been really fun. We are lucky enough to have family that has a ranch and a farm. I posted the field trip that we took last summer with the kids riding the combines with Uncle Jeff and Auntie Kayleen. They also took Kent and Abby hunting this last year. I've been anxiously awaiting calving season so we can go out with the

Since we've eliminated sugar from our house, I've felt sorry for our kids. I'm sure I'm going to turn them into junk food lovers once they grow up. I relented and let them have a box of Tic Tacs and they each get one a day...I am so cruel. I still let them eat as many frozen berries as they want though...Tonight there is a cast party for Beauty and the Beast and I'm sure there will be all kinds

The last two months have been pretty crazy around here. Kent and Abby have been rehearsing for what turned out to be a fabulous production of Beauty and the Beast. The directors were a very talented couple from the ward (it was a community production but a good portion of the cast was LDS). Casey and Angie Pratt are the perfect match for a musical production. Angie is very creative with music

It was around a year ago, that I started to talk to them about pornography. Already, Caleb has looked at a catalog with a several women pictured in bras, brought it to me and said, "I think we need to throw this away...these women aren't modest."Well, today we received a Family Circle magazine in the mail and I hadn't had a chance to look at it yet, and when I came back I saw that the cover had

So I've been continuing with my herbal class and I have to say, my eyes have been opened. I bought loads of herbs and made the herbal combinations from Dr. Christopher. Kent and I have been drinking them as tea for the past 2 weeks. They are specifically for cleansing your body and getting rid of the toxins that have stored up for years.Each herbal combination is for a specific region in your

Today Mimi asked me to help her change into a princess dress. I obliged and then replied, "There you go, Princess Miriam!""I'm not Miriam, I'm Ariel!" You know... the Disney Mermaid.Then she turned to Josh and said," C'mon, Prince Eric.

Some of you may not know that I am a true blue dyed in the wool Star Wars Fan. I can remember my Uncle Gordon taking me to see Return of the Jedi when it first came out. He was wise and went to the movie theater early to buy tickets. Good thing, because I had never seen a line of people go all the way around a movie theater before. I was from little ol' St. George and Seattle was the big city..

Ok, Hannah...I'll give a little update... Just cuz I like ya so much!Things have been pretty crazy around here. I started my herbal class...I thought it was "study at your own pace". However, I found out it's really "study at your own pace for 3 months". So I've been delving into it while trying to do homeschool and keep up on eating healthy.We have been on healthy food for about a month now.

Josh's birthday is in two days and I wanted to try out a healthier recipe of brownies to see if they would be good enough to take to his preschool for treats. They are made with whole wheat flour and I used dextrose (thanks Heather!) instead of sugar. The brownies were more like cake brownies so I also made some chocolate frosting for them. For the frosting, I put in 1 cup of powdered sugar (

I like a good deal (apparently I pronounce it "dill", or so Kent says). Have you heard of Ebates? It's a site that is hooked up with major stores such as Target, JCPenney, etc. and it will send out emails letting you know about good "dills". This is the link shipping coupons. It's free to join up and they are offering a $10 gift card. Also, as an added bonus, if you refer friends to the site

I just glanced over this site, and I thought I'd pass this along Reinventing America. It has some interesting ways of pulling our country out of the hole that we're in financially. One of which is bringing back "Thrift Week". I guess they had these until the 60's. I'm wondering if they are along the same lines as the pig commercials for saving money. Anyway, it was interesting.

So after Amanda suggested I put up different posts about stuff I know about (or would like to think that I know about them ;-) I wrote my post about peppermint tea. Since I was going to plug Mountain Rose Herbs anyway, I decided to go to their site to see if there is an affiliate program.

It all started during the summer. Downstairs we have a 400 sq. foot playroom and Kent decided to put up the tent for the kids to play in. They quickly asked if they could sleep in it. We don't have air conditioning and all our bedrooms are upstairs where it gets the hottest and downstairs is the coolest spot in the house so Kent said, "Sure, you can all sleep down here."That lasted most of the

Over the last two days, I've been walking down memory lane. I got out the mission pics and then today, looked through them again and found some wedding photos. I've always liked this photo because of the bubbles and it's when we are leaving the reception heading out for the rest of our lives together. But today when I looked at it, I looked at what I was looking at. My mom...I can't remember
