This is the story of a homeschooling mama, a wine-lovin' hubby, 8 year old son, 5 year old BGG triplets, one cranky old beagle and a sweet looking terrorist kitty. Our life is crazy...but it's never boring.

Charities for the Holidays
This year we are really making an effort to teach the kids about families that are less fortunate or somehow in need.
I regularly follow the blog Cake Wrecks. It is the most hilarious site dedicated to cakes that have somehow gone horribly wrong. Today is the first day of their 'Christmas Charity Countdown'.
Every day for 12 days Jen will post the link to a different charity and they ask for only a $1 donation. Jen and her hubby started this last year instead of buying each other gifts.
Today's charity is Give Kids the World. This is an awesome organization in Florida that provides no-cost vacations to children with life-threatening illnesses and their families.
So, if you are looking for a way to make a difference, this is a great way to give back and make a huge difference by only spending $12.
We will be donating $5 each day.
And, I challenge you to not miss a day.
