If you are a mom of a busy family, then you could benefit from spending less time planning, shopping and cooking tasty, healthy meals. This gift could bring your family together on a weekly basis around the dinner table.

EMeals work with all grocery stores including Aldi!

eMeals is the simple dinner solution for busy people who want to spend their money wisely and their time with people they love. eMeals is the easy way to be organized, have a well-managed grocery budget and enjoy healthy dinners at home.

Jane DeLaney, President and Founder of eMeals, struggled with balancing work and family life like most busy people. Her commitment to making her family life ordered around an evening meal where everyone could decompress and come face to face with each other, is also the fuel that drives her passion for eMeals.

Jane founded eMeals over nine years ago with her sister, Jenny Cochran… also a busy, working mom with three kids and a reputation for her culinary skills and gracious hospitality. Their budget-minded meal planning system is complete with easy to follow (or delegate) shopping lists and delicious recipes.

I love eMeals and the ease it brings my family. You should give it a try as well!

About God’s Smuggler

As a boy he dreamed of being a spy – undercover behind enemy lines. As a man he found himself undercover for God. Brother Andrew was his name, and for decades his life story, recounted in God’s Smuggler, has awed and inspired millions. This bestseller tells of the young Dutch factory worker’s incredible efforts to transport Bibles across closed borders – and the miraculous ways in which God provided for him every step of the way.

This story is reintroduced in a 35th anniversary edition with a new foreword and afterword. Brother Andrew’s story remains as inspiring today as it was thirty-five years ago, and with this new release it will motivate a new generation to risk everything to follow God’s call.

This year in our homeschool, we are studying the election process. Since this is an election year, I figure what better way to do so, right? Here are a few election and government homeschool freebies you can use in your homeschool :)

Robert will be turning 18 this year. He is going to miss his first time voting by one month! However, that is not going to stop me from teaching him about the voting process. I want him to know WHY we vote like we do and how to choose the best candidate based on God’s principles and not man’s principles.

If you are a homeschooler looking for something fun to do with your homeschoolers, take a break from your every day studies and spend some time getting to know the candidates and the whole election process. Watch a few movies about Presidents and history — one of my favorites is of course National Treasure :) . Make yummy snack foods of red, white, and blue.

To top off our studies, at the end of the year, we are going to visit our state capital and ya never know — we might even visit Washington D.C!

Do you have any freebies that we can add to this list for the election?
