Home is who lives inside the house.

Come along with us as we intentionally build our home on Biblical truth, loving relationships, real-life activities and financial stability. For our kids, we believe in lots of free-play, reading, virtually no screen time, and involving them in the everyday activities of running a household.

Finances
