ABOUT
I'm Shayla, an earthy mountain mama to 6 wildlings, & a blessed wife to one since 2004. We're a big, Jesus loving, God fearing family & we love to laugh! Hubby & I are second generation homeschoolers, & have been homeschooling our children from the start-since around 2009. We were raised unconventionally, and our parents utilized homesteading before it was trendy, and it was a goal and dream of ours to do the same-but it's only been recently that we have been able to bring this dream to full potential. Last year the Heavenly Father brought to life our dream that we've had for over 25 years and enabled us to begin buying a mountain homestead fixer upper, so join us in the adventures and fun here at our new homeschool/homestead! Be sure to subscribe. In 2023 my goal is to upload once a month.

+ homestead & homeschool vlogs

As to the “how do you do things with kids around?” question, I wanted to add some encouragements for young moms…
I think it’s difficult to imagine getting things done if you have lots of of littles because they have an abundance of immediate needs. If you keep being faithful, they do grow and come to understand their importance in the family’s work. Once they’re older, they have eyes to see what needs to be done and they take on a greater role which frees you up to take on more. The early years are really about loving them, feeding them, keeping them safe and patiently helping them create habits that will serve them later on. I can do far more now with five kids (aged 6-15) than I could with three kids under 5. Keep on training them, knowing your labor is not in vain. God is faithful in parenting too.
This comment is balm to my soul, so encouraging.
God blessed me with the most strong-willed son (4y.o) and for two years now I cannot see the light at the end of this stressful tunnel. But I can only rely on hope and faith that he WILL mature and WILL stop driving me up the wall lol
thank you for sharing this
I don’t know how I only recently came across your channel. All I know is, in my mind we’re BFFs! Thank you for putting yourself out there.
Awe, thank you! That's awesome!
You have to try sausage and potato Tortellini soup! OMGOODNESS it's absolutely delicious! I love shredding my zucchini and adding it to my pasta sauce, my family has no idea its in there 😅 Mason Tops Pickling pipes and weights are fabulous! I absolutely love your videos, your voice is so soothing and welcoming. I appreciate all you and all of your hardwork.
Awe, thank you so much!! I'll look up that soup, it sounds lovely, Thank you!
Thank you. Needed to hear this ❤
No more plates please. I have way too many as it is. LOL I absolutely love the mason tops fermenting items. I have used them for years. They have changed the shape of the glass weights and I think it was a change for the better. We eat a lot of fermented foods. One book that I have been using a lot I found at the library of all places. So thankful for that - The Self-Sufficient Fermenting . We have tried several recipes from it. It also has recipes for sourdough, yogurt, cheese and more. Haven't gotten to those things yet. Yes yes and yes about involving your kids. This was a hard one for me at first, I wanted it done my way, faster... then that isn't allowing them to learn, bless me, spend time with me, or develop some new skills. It has become so special the more I invite my kids into something that I am doing. It is so wonderful how God shows us this is so important and bonding. Thanks Shayla!!! So powerful. Keep the reminders and new things coming. I always love seeing what you have posted. I always watch all the way to the end and all the way through!!!
It was so nice to hear from you again, Alesha! This was such an enjoyable comment to read through. Thank you for the kind words.
I am newer to your channel, and I love how peaceful and pleasant your content is.
Glad you enjoy it! Thank you for telling me!
It depends on the kids. My child with ASD and SPD actually eats a lot of different foods, including zuppa toscana. He does pick up random versions from time to time (he's never objected to diced tomatoes until this year - he's 9).
Leaving things in larger chunks is a good idea! Alternatively, if you simmer it forever and then blend it thoroughly, it may smooth out the texture enough.
Experiment!
I’ve taken down Christmas decor as I put up Easter decor and I’ve removed easter decor at Christmas so I understand. Sometimes I want to put a bit of every thing up that will represent the whole year in one go!! People admire it and at least I try!!! So don’t worry if it doesn’t work the way you imagine!!
I love this video! So much inspo and very relatable 😊
I definitely feel like we have gotten into a good morning rhythm and homeschool routine. Last week though, my son broke his arm 😢 and we were totally thrown off. Still feeling tired trying to get back into a routine.
This video is helping soothe my nerves 🫶🏻
I'm so, so sorry to hear your son broke his arm, Abbie. How traumatic for you all, I'll be praying for you all! I hope he's not in a lot of pain.
If you had a good rhythm before, it will not be as difficult to get back into it as it would be had you not had a rhythm yet. It's just going to take a lot of determination, which is hard! Also challenging is going to be that the rhythm may need some adjusting now.
In my 14 years of doing this there is ALWAYS something to come along like this that throws everything off. At times I felt so alone and singled out, like God wasn't protecting our homeschool. I honestly don't think it was until I started this channel that I myself realized I was not alone in this, and that He was showing me it was all going to work out because we have sought after Him and are trying to obey Him, therefore He is for us and it will work out because of HIM!
I don't know if that will encourage you or not, I hope it helps. Prayers for you.
@@mountainhomesteadfamily thank you so much! We are so grateful he didn’t need surgery and hasn’t been in any pain- totally an answer to prayer 😊
The only holiday I worry about decorating for is xmas. My house is full of the things I love to have out all the time; my great grandmother's dishware, sewing items, crocks, mason jars full of canned goods, baskets of eggs, etc...AND I do not have any storage area of any kind. No dry cellar/basement, no attic (in my 1700s house there were only crawl spaces...uuuggghhh & we took them out, mostly) there are not even closets, really. 2 bedrooms have tiny closets. They used armoires & hutches, which I do not own. I have very little cabinet space. So once I would go to change out decorations, there was nowhere to store the other stuff. And then we had a very traumatic experience. One of my girl's friends gave our house bed bugs, 9 years ago. I say, traumatic because we literally set fire to (or threw away) most of our belongings. In an old house, bed bugs can hide ANYWHERE & it is very hard for pest control co. to eradicate them. We had a house FULL of stuff that could not be washed/dryed on high heat or sprayed with their chemicals. We literally opened the upstairs windows, tossed most of our belongings on the yard & burned them for 4-5 days straight. I am trying not to cry right now. We spent thousands of dollars trying to deal with this, all while trying to homeschool. I could not open any books or supplies or get to any of my records. I kept fibbing to the school system to keep them at bay while we dealt with this situation. Holiday stuff? gone, except for tree ornaments that could be washed/treated. It was like choosing to have a house fire, it was such a surreal situation. After that, I was so grateful the have the items that were still left that I never bothered with decorations again. It is sad but, we actually gauge time by "before the 'incident' "(which is what we refer to it as) or "after the 'incident'". 🙁
I hope you're enjoying autumn 😊
I I just came across your channel. I really enjoyed it I have subscribed, and looking forward to watching all your videos. My name is Annette and I'm from Cardiff in Great Britain South Wales ❤
Welcome aboard! Thank you so much for saying hello and being here!
Love this❤❤❤
So relatable 🤗
I recently stumbled upon your page and I am obsessed! Love your videos!! ❤
Thank you so much!
Yay! Thank you!
Really enjoy watching your videos!❤So relatable and cozy👍God bless you and your family🙏
Thank you! You too!
I love your homemaking videos, they inspire me! Thank you:) I also love my Nakano knife, I ordered it after you showed yours a month ago, it is super duper sharp (YES, I have cut myself a couple times, lol).
Oh my goodness, thank you so much!! I'm loving my Nagano still too, thank you so much for telling me, Kim!
Thank you for your inspiration and advice! I love watching your videos so much and I feel so encouraged. Blessings! 🙏🏼🌈⛅️💕🎉🌻🍁
You are so welcome, thank you for watching 😊!
Great tips, I’ll be using jojoba oil from now on. Thank you!
I love your channel! Quick tip for those hot jars, when you go to put the lids on and tighten them wear a pair of rubber gloves. I usually use the ones I use for cleaning, they are heavy enough to make the jars easier to hold and not burn your hands.
Ooh, I like that gloves idea! Thank you!
You're welcome. They have saved my hands more than once.
Great video! Love the support for small business and local shopping ❤️
Thanks so much!!
Watching from the mountains in Quetzaltenango, Guatemala while preparing homemade pizza dough for tonight's dinner. :)
That's awesome! Thank you for watching, Kim!! I believe you're the first person from Guatemala I have heard from!
@@mountainhomesteadfamily , that's great. We're originally from Chicago, but have been living here in Guatemala for the last seven years as missionaries/teachers. Five kids & praying to adopt our foster daughter someday! :) Love your channel. Thank you. - Kate
You food looks so beautiful and scrumptious! Kudos to you for your cooking, and to whoever is filming and editing! Just gorgeous 😍
Thank you so much!!
SOOOOO excited for the planner!!!!❤
I second this !!
Me too!!!
Just found your channel through TH-cam recommendations. I'm definitely enjoying all the knowledge from a seasoned mom. I have 2 boys 12 ,3 and one in the oven❤
Awesome! Thank you!
I love your videos they help me to be a better homemaker.😊
That's awesome! Thank you for sharing this with me!
We love carrot cake around Thanksgiving and Christmas. If the carrots from the garden are in abundance I’ll go ahead and make the cakes, place in freezer for 30 minutes and then vacuum seal them and place back in freezer. Makes holiday baking smoother. Also where is your dish brush from?
Hello! I linked to the brush in the description for you 😍!
❤
You are doing a fantastic job ! The kitchen looks stunning and the canned jars are so beautiful! Your videos calm me and encourage me to be a good housekeeper. Greetings from a mum of 5 ,one of them is on spectrum, would love if you could share how you cope with your children ! And so nice when you answer to a comment in your videos!
Thank you! Yes, I will see about sharing more about how I cope with the kids in future videos!
Would you be able to do a video of your infant must haves? I don’t like the idea of having an overwhelming amount of things but I would still like to be fully prepared.
Hello! Yes, I'll see about adding this to an upcoming video! Thank you for the suggestion!
I loved your video ❤️ question from a newbie canner: is it okay to use secondhand jars? I’m worried that they will break
Hello! Sometimes it happens but it's rare in my experience, and I've actually had brand new and unused jars break, twice this year actually!
Your videos are so beautiful and inspiring. ❤ please where did you get the awesome posters!?
Thank you! I got them at a store local to us, but you can find them here too. amzn.to/40jZoZN
If last summer hadn't ended, you wouldn't have had the blessings this summer had in store for you.
Good point! Thank you! 😍
Hi from Norway 🥰
Hello!!
With my three boys, if they aren’t talking or yelling or moving they are humming or making sound effects with their mouths. The noise is constant! I know I will miss it when they are older but it does add to a very distracted mommy!
My boys are like that too!
I think as you age and maybe menopause is in it too, or even just overwhelm, women become more sensitized to sound. My mother experienced it and at the time I didn't know what she was talking about but now I do!
Where do you get your big puffy dish brush from? I always see it and think “I neeeed one of those!” 😂
She's listed it in the description I believe.
Hello! It's in the description 😊
I thought the older a sourdough baby the better, am I wrong?! I’ve had mine going for almost 18 months. I’ve heard people have them for years & pass down to family. How would I know about bad bacteria?
Oh that extra spinning plate and trying to catch it 😬😬😬
Yes!!
I have been desperately searching for a planner that allows for MANY students and also MANY subjects, because even though language arts is one subject, it has a zillion components that I have to write down and remember. Is your planner going to allow for that? I haven't found anyone whose planner allows for 4 children with MANY subjects for each child.
Hello Joy, I am sorry I didn't get to your comment sooner, but after reading your comment I did talk to the designer. We came up with an optional page just for people like you! We hope to release the planner very soon!
@@mountainhomesteadfamily great!
