Ready for Fall
I feel like I blinked, and Summer was over. I’ll be honest, I’m not in the least bit sad about it. Yes, my family had a pretty great summer. Our boys both celebrated birthdays, as did my Mountain Man, we had a nice family vacation to the beach, my oldest...A Tale of a Snail

Hi! I’m Brenna Jo! I’m the Feisty Girl who runs this joint along with my über talented (and bearded) hubby, Mountain Man. We have 3 kiddos (J-Man, The Nugget, and Little Miss T). Former NC residents, we relocated to Montana back in 2018. We jumped headfirst into the Homeschool scene during covid, and started Grace River Homeschool in the Fall of 2020. With all the changes happening in the world, we decided we wanted to be as self-sufficient as possible, so we bought chickens and are trying our hands at growing some of our own food. Thanks for stopping by! Take a look around, and let’s chat about food, natural wellness, Jesus, homeschool, or really anything to do with kids, FRIENDS (yes, the best show on the face of the Earth), or life!
