"The road of life twists and turns and no two directions are ever the same. Yet our lessons come from the journey, not the destination." ~ Don Williams, Jr.
We believe very strongly in allowing our children to be educated in the environment that best suits their individual needs, and that will best help them reach their own level of Excellence. We have had kids in both public school and homeschool, and take each year as it comes to make the best decision for our kids. At this time we only have two school-aged and they are both homeschooled. Plans are changing again next year.
Kyndal and Collin
Kyndal graduated from public school in 2013, graduated from cosmetology school in 2014, and married Collin in 2015. She is a bank teller, wife, and mama to Bennett Matthew. Collin is an iron worker. They just bought a new house and have two dog babies: Chloe and Yadi.
Dawson
We started our homeschooling journey with Dawson when he was in the 7th grade, however, he graduated from public school in 2015. Dawson attended community college for a couple of semesters but decided that he is just needing too much adventure in his life at this time to settle down to the rigors of full-time school and working. He recently moved to Oklahoma to be with his girlfriend, who he met in the 4th grade, and to work until the two of them figure out where Alyssa will be continuing her undergrad education in pre-med next year. Who knows where life will take them. I am sure they will figure it out. They have three dogs: Crusoe, Peanut, and Nyla.
Eli
Eli is a 7th grade homeschool student. He is a homebody extraordinaire, like his mama, and is content just playing video games or playing with his Nerf guns. His favorite activity outside of home is bowling.
Brynne
Brynne is a 6th grade homeschool student doing all grade level work with Eli, which means she is always ahead of the curve. She is a go-getter who loves playing softball, volleyball, basketball, bowling and swimming!! She is also a dog lover and writer and currently lives and breathes Lord of the Rings.
