love them wild.

hello.  my name is kindahl.

Mama to four beautifully wild babes that bring me great joy and an abundant need for grace. Our homeschooling journey has been such a refining process, receiving and extending the mercy freely shown to me. My sweet and adventurous husband of over a decade leads our family so well with a humble kindness. We reside in beautiful East Tennessee where you can find us playing in the streams and exploring new mountain trails. I find our journey here to be simple yet purposeful, always looking forward to our forever home.

Oatmeal Bath Bombs

Oatmeal Bath Bombs

These little guys are super tricky, I tried a couple recipes before finding this one. It all has to do with the consistency of your mixture. You want it to feel like wet sand that is mostly dry, that makes sense right!?  It should form a ball, but still fall apart at...
