Welcome!

I'm Tonia and this is my family. There's Hubs, my wonderful partner; Bug, my darling daughter; and Boo, my charming son. We are the Collins clan. We are a homeschooling family who try our best to live out God's will for our lives every day. There are lots of stumbles along the way, but we love each other and this little life we're carving out for ourselves. Recently we found ourselves called to make some big changes in our lives so we're packing up the McMansion and moving out to a little farm in need of a lot of TLC. We have tons to learn and tons to do and we invite you to share the journey as we turn our not-so-new heap into a home.

Odd Jobs

We've been busy doing all kinds of odd jobs around the Heap.



Like painting the propane tank....



And power washing the grunge off of the Heap......



Cutting down trees and cleaning out fence rows.....


 
Stacking firewood that will be used for nights around the fire pit........
 
 
And putting up a swing for the kids.
 
It's all hard work, but it's really starting to look like someone lives here and cares about it. We occasionally get glimpses of the day we'll call it the Homestead instead of the Heap. Then we're jolted back to reality......but for a moment, it's beautiful.
