About Us
Donna
I have been married for twenty years to Tony the love of my life. I could not have asked for a more perfect companion ~ God’s gifts are the best! The Lord has blessed us with three children whom we have home educated since their births. It is a blessing to see the LORD’s hand on their lives in spite of all our mistakes made as parents. God is faithful to complete His work as we are obedient to His word.
The LORD has been our joy in life’s triumphs and trials of which we have had many. When my children were quite young I became very sick with a severe blood infection that nearly took my life. It took my body a year to recover only to become gravely ill again. This time it was stage 3 colon cancer and another long struggle back to health.
I praise the LORD for each day He gives me to be a wife and mother. The life lessons our family learned during that time in our lives are too numerous to list here. Life is too short to waste on trivial things of this world and our God is too AWESOME to not praise and worship Him continually.

I am the oldest child and only daughter in my family. I graduated summer of 2009 and continue to serve the LORD by serving my family at home as I pursue the skills necessary to one day run a household of my own. (Proverbs 31:10-31)
It has been a great blessing to our family to live close to my grandparents all our lives and now living with them! What a blessing. Because of this, we all share a special relationship with them. At age five my grandmother began to teach me how to sew. I have been so blessed by all the skills she has taught me over the years. She has given me not only a love for the art of sewing but also a love for the practical side of it as well.
My mother and I began a natural skin care business called Practical Simplicity. Being allergic to many products on the market today, plus the high cost of products from the health food stores caused me to seek out alternatives from our kitchen. Naturally to follow was to make these items available for others. Now, more than just our love for natural skin care products are now available at our shop that we find useful in our day to day lives that we hope y’all enjoy! I have found in the last few years that I have a knack for photography, and love to take nature pictures! The last 4 years I have been an avid photographer and just love taking photos of God’s amazing creation and learn something new every tome I use my camera!
We hope you enjoy our blog and may the Lord bless you as you read it, and may the Lord be glorified in every post!
Grace and Peace!
