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.
Video's you can find here that I enjoy creating include;
+ homestead & homeschool vlogs
+ homeschool mom day in the life videos
+ curriculum reviews
+ boho home decor and fixer upper videos
+ eco friendly clean with me hacks
+ grocery & + Azure Standard Hauls

I've been married 30y years today.. we had a season with an immaculate home. Pristine 24 hours a day. It was empty quiet and soulless. We were finally blessed with children. Our home came alive. Messy busy noisy. I would never give that up to have had a lifetime of neatness. A family home should look feel and sound like life is happening inside it.
You are one of the most godly women I've ever known. It is so helpful to listen to your testimony and see how you keep yourself encouraged. May the Lord bless you and your family.
This is so kind of you to say, Blessings to you and thank you. 🤗
Ministering is serving. It is not necessarily preaching only. Ministers serve, therefore, homemaking is ministering to our families.
Homemaking is an honorable role. Reading proverbs 31 you clearly get the sense of tespect the writer has for the woman written about.
Those messy seasons usually occur during a hiccup. I'm actually in a messy season myself.
Hello Shayla, what a lovely video, in word and sight. Homemaking IS an honorable profession and so glad you voiced and showed just that! When I was a homemaker with children in the home, I took it seriously and believe my two children benefited greatly from it. Thank you again for your ministry of TH-cam to us all.
Thank you so much!
@@homesteadhomeschoolfamily so welcome
Just found your channel - very inspiring. Family of 6 here, and I struggle with homemaking greatly... The garlic tops you were pickling with are garlic bulbils. You can actually plant those and they will grow into the larger singular bulb the first year. Harvest them in the early summer, but then plant them again the next fall, and they'll grow into the cloves you're used to harvesting. It's a great way to save money on buying garlic cloves to plant each year. Perpetual supply!
Awesome! Thank you!
Your words have truly inspired me. “The devil would love nothing more than to convince us that the work we are doing is a waste of time… hang on… there are some really big rewards coming…” I’ve been a homemaker for 25 years, since I was 17, and now I’m battling chronic illness, so I struggle keeping up with homemaking. Basically, we are now empty nesters. My husband provides and cares for me, and I try to do the same for him, but I am so tired, burnt out and sick most of the time. Your honest words help me to keep my eye on the prize and keep going, serving the Lord in serving my husband and family. ❤ Thank you!
You are welcome, thank you so much for being here and sharing this. Blessings to you!
I truly wish i had heard this earlier. I have homeschooled for the last 5 years, and couldn't cope anymore so put my children in school. But now struggle with the worry of how this will impact them... all because of overwhelm, and stress because of all the mess and everything i needed to do and how necissary it felt to do them all as soon as possible... Thank you.
You are welcome, Bernadette! 💛
The verse from proverbs About the oxen has been one of my favourite over the years as I view the work the Lord has me do…. My husband also reminds me of it when it feels like the work that we are attempting feels so “messy”. He says, Katie, it is supposed to get messy if we are working! So true!!! A mess is usually a sign that work is being done.
Thanks for your video ♥️

Well said! Thank you, KB!
Those puppies are the cutest. I love how helpful your kids are!
Thanks so much for sharing, I appreciate your thirty years of experience and your honesty. Also your endurance is inspiring and yet you still can joke about those harder times too, an example we could all learn from! Hello from Sussex England:)
Thank you! ☺😍
Yes, experience and honesty. We are blessed to have Shayla's ministry!
We have Seido Japanese knives and I love them too. They work great and are very sharp
That mid life wall you hit is a normal thing and you handled it extremely well.
Thank you for sharing all your wisdom and being a Titus 2 woman I can look up to. May Good continue to bless the work of your hands ❤
Thank you, Jessica!
Hi Shayla ❤️ I wanted to tell you that finding your channel has been such a comfort to me - I have a few amazing fellow homeschool moms in my circle but we’re all moms of littles just trying to navigate the muddy waters. Watching you is like having coffee with the seasoned veteran homeschool mama friend I so wish I had in my circle. Thank you! In addition, you lead me to realize I’ve probably had adhd my entire life and that’s why some things are so dang hard no matter what I try or do, and my eldest I’m confident has it as well. I can’t thank you enough for sharing your experience and bringing awareness to a topic that is rarely talked about! All the love from a wisconsin homestead mama of 5. ❤️ Oh, and the fact that you’re a bible-believing Christian absolutely is the cherry on top. Yay Jesus. ❤️ bless you dear!
Thank you so much for taking the time to tell me these things. I really appreciate it. Blessings to you!
This video came a such a great time. I am knee deep in planning for our new homeschool year. We will be starting in a couple of weeks and our home is full of messes everywhere. I am taking up our dinning room with stacks of books, papers, and all those kinds of things. I have my children making food, forts, jewelry, playing with play dough, all of the outdoor things coming in and its just a great reminder that this is all part of the home. Choosing to stat home means that we see all of this and work with it, around it, and sometimes over top of it. I enjoy seeing you be creative in the kitchen as usual. For me playing in the kitchen to do every day things and try new things really helps fuel my heart and family. Its good to see you.
It sounds like wonderful memories are being made at your home! Good to hear from you again, Alesha!
Yes 👏 I love that verse, have honestly never thought about it that way. This time of year can be so overwhelming because we are doing all the things! Thank you for the inspiration my friend!
You are welcome! You got this!
I love this.. I've been a stay at home mom/homeschooling mom for 16 years now and sometimes get burnt out as well.. I feel like maybe a part-time job might be a good idea for me too.
Hi, Shayla! I hope you’re recovering from that cold; we’ve had one go through the household over the last week, and of course I was the last to get it! lol. I really appreciated your wise encouragement; I’ve been homemaking for 15 years, and still need to hear and be reminded of these things! ❤
Thank you, Casey!
I absolutely loved this video❤❤❤❤. There's nothing like a Christ honoring homemaking video❤❤😊. Blessings sis!
Thank you so much 🤗
Hello, I hope all is well. I just discovered your channel. It’s such a blessing when I find channels of those who are disciples of Jesus. Thank you for sharing! I have a few questions: what soil, fertilizer, compost do you all use for gardening? And what all tools would you recommend for a beginner gardener? And how do you keep your glass jar lids rust free?
Hello! Thank you for the kind words! We use compost and composted manure, plus we got our soil tested so we would know exactly what it needed. As for tools I have a link to my Amazon garden store with products we have and love for our garden. Here it is amzn.to/47q3hj2
As for the jar lids, I don't put them in the dishwasher very often and that helps. Eventually they do rust though and I just replace them.
@@homesteadhomeschoolfamily you’re welcome! Thank you for sharing! Who do you contact to get the soil tested? Okay, great. I will be sure to look at your Amazon link.
Another wonderful video!! Thank you for sharing your wisdom and experience with us all! I always look forward to your videos.
You are so welcome, thank you!
Awww cute puppies! This is the first I have seen huckleberries! As far as I know, it is not native where I live. Your home looks so nice! I felt I was not valued as a homemaker for a long time. Once I got a job a bit over a couple of years ago and worked for nearly two years, my family definitely appreciated me and saw how much I had been doing in the home (and continued to try to do while working full time but went to part time before quitting so I can just stay at home doing what I was doing for so long haha). You are a great mom and wife, from what I see. I am glad you have your kids help you out best you can.
I think when I went to get my job is when I also had a sort of midlife crisis, but not really. It was a weird time though for sure.
I love that you have goals. I love making goals, and those are the best goals to have (to love God and your family).
Keep working hard. I'm cheering you on.
It's funny how when you are not doing all the home things all the time people including ourselves realize how much was being done! Thank you for this sweet comment, Friend!
I enjoyed this video, but after seeing your skills in gardening and canning, I feel like such a dunce! I heartily wish I had more skills. I guess I need to join your membership. ( I’m new here, so I’ll have to find out what that means!) 😁😂
Awe! It takes time to learn those skills, and I myself have a long ways to go so please don't feel bad!
How many green bean plants did you do and were they bush beans or pole or both? Do you have a video of how you approached planting or can you make one? Thank you!
We did bush beans, 6 rows 50ft long. ☺ Here's a couple of our garden videos.
