Welcome everyone to Raising Our Family. This blog is an eclectic mix of family events and photos, crafts I am working on, activities for the kids, faith moments and more.
About Us
You can find a lengthy version on the My Family page at the top. We are a Christian family living in Southern Ontario. We have a family business called Integrity Fire and Control Systems Inc. I do all the office work while my husband in the man in the field. Our company is growing, praise the Lord, which keeps us busy along with two young boys. If the Lord is willing we would like to homeschool our boys, we blog about the many things we do during the day. I am still researching and working on what our homeschooling adventure will look like. At the moment we are moving towards a Waldorf inspired lifestyle (this journey is for another post if I get to it). I love to do all things crafty so you'll see a lot of that in this blog. I encourage you to use the links along the right side and look around to find out more.
Some of my past most popular posts were:
Monster Shirt
Messy Rainbow Spagetti
My Favourites from this new year include:
Dress-up-clothes
Melted Crayon Art
Fairy Houses
The Store
I have been selling these adorable sock monsters on Facebook for a while now with great success. They are designed to be a great stuffed toy that can also be used for the tooth fairy. Our life is a bit busy at the moment because we are selling our house, growing the business, raising a family, etc... so I have not yet started an Etsy store. I hope to sell my upcycled creations and other unique items. For now if there is something you like or think I can make, please contact me.
Thank you for stopping by. Please leave a comment so I know you visited! Enjoy the party.
We use to melt crayons.

Hi Meaghan, It looks as if you and I have a lot in common. Both teachers, both in STEM fields, both have 2 young boys, both like crafting, both planning on starting homeschooling this year. Is it fair to say I may have just found a wonderful friend?
ReplyDeleteI love all your boy-friendly crafts. Monsters, melting crayons...I will by stopping by regularly. And I will do my best to make comments when I do!
