Another Round of the Ultimate Blog Challenge

Well the first quarter of 2015 has flown by quickly.  We have spent the time working on school, beginning to hold church services at our home and making a relatively quick trip to North Carolina to see my husband’s side of the family.

With the start of the second quarter of 2015 beginning, I am pleased to be participating in the next round of the Ultimate Blog Challenge.  My plan for this blog for 2015 is to increase traffic to the blog and begin offering some freebies as well.  I am also going to learn how to use Photoshop and work more with PicMonkey to create my own graphics.

In April, the next Proverbs 31 Ministries Bible Study for Lysa Terkeurst’s book “What Happens When Women Walk in Faith” will begin.  Once again I will be serving as one of the Facebook Small Group leaders.

I am also participating in a Bible Study for Kay Arthur’s book “How to Study Your Bible” in order to learn more about the Inductive Bible Study method.  I am also going through the book, “Writing in the Margins”.  One of my goals for 2015 is to grow in Bible Journaling activities.  My one word for 2015 is “Create” and that is my focus for the year.

In the realm of homeschooling, we are preparing for our oldest son’s graduation.  With that we will enter a new realm of parenting.  We are planning on him walking across the stage at the CHAP convention in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania the weekend of Mother’s Day.  Our next graduation will possibly take place as early as the next school year.

  1. Pattie, I run a tutoring company in Atlanta and my first client for the side hustles is a homeschool teacher. I am going to refer to your blog for homeschool ideas!

    1. Thanks for visiting. Tell your client to be sure she leaves me a comment when she visits the site. We are finishing up our 9th year of homeschooling and I can’t imagine doing anything else.

      1. Great! I agree with you completely about more people considering homeschooling. My husband and I love talking to people about homeschooling and our journey.

      2. So this is your second time around for the UBC Patti Pierce? Looks like you will have a busy month with all your family and church activities. I admire that you still have time to blog.

      3. Thanks for stopping by. I have started but not completed the challenge several other times. I did the last challenge and was able to complete it. We have a busy time, but I try to make sure I take time to blog or do some things that are for me.
