Warm illustrated family portrait of the Jones family with Austin College Roos football, Ponder Lions football, gaming headphones, dance details, and camper life elements.

We’re not trying to keep up with the Joneses. We are the Joneses — and we’re barely keeping up.

A family of six sharing homeschool life, football days, dance weekends, homemade bread, crunchy-ish swaps, camper life, and the beautiful chaos of raising kids.

Hey y’all, welcome to our beautiful chaos.

I’m Nicole — homeschool mom, football mom, dance mom, wife to a construction husband living that camper life, and the one trying to keep everybody fed, organized, encouraged, and somewhat on schedule.

Around here, you’ll find real-life family stories, big family meals, homemade bread, homeschool favorites, crunchy-ish swaps, sports and dance mom finds, and the products we actually use to keep this family of six moving.

A Little Bit of Everything We’re Keeping Up With

From homeschool days and big family meals to football sidelines, dance weekends, crunchy-ish homemaking, camper life, and college milestones — here’s where you can explore the pieces of our family’s real-life story.
