Welcome to our homeschool blog! My name is Dana and my husband and I have one daughter, Alexandra, whom we have homeschooled since kindergarten (or earlier!). This year, however, Alex is in a private school for 6th grade. But, we are eagerly awaiting returning HOME for next year!
This blog talks about the things we learn, both through her schooling and my 'lifelong learning' adventures, and our vacations, hobbies, book reviews, and more.
