My name is Angie. I am the wife, mother, educator, and friend behind Fresh Wanderings. I love slow, simple days spent at home where I can be found creating, gardening, baking, educating our children, and spending time in God's Word. Welcome to the place where all of these things culminate into one.

I dusted off my neglected blog this morning to sha

We completely switched things up this year and hav

We completely switched things up this year and have decorated everything but the tree. That will come tomorrow. Slowly yet surely it’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas. 🎄

Today, I'm celebrating all the things I'm thankful

Today, I'm celebrating all the things I'm thankful for.

• Family
• Friends
• Our home

This year has brought a lot of unexpected and hard changes, but it has also brought many good ones as well. I know these things sound very broad and generic, but aside from God’s grace these things listed above have been such great sources of unconditional joy.

Happy Thanksgiving, Friends! 🦃

This summer we learned that my dad has ALS. ALS is

This summer we learned that my dad has ALS. ALS is a disease that causes the motor neurons to degenerate over time until they eventually die. When they die, they can no longer initiate or control muscle movement. This diagnosis has really impressed upon me the importance of each and every thing my dad is still able to do. I am so grateful for all of it, no matter how big or how small….they are treasures and we want to hold on to those things as long as we can.

I’m passing this on to you because that's what friends do when they have learned something the hard way, also because this life is a gift and it truly needs to be seen as such. Instead of using the words "have to" for things that I may not love but that are required of me, I have been impressed of their value as "get to’s".

For example:

•I get to ______ do laundry
•I get to ______ carpool teenagers
•I get to ______ make dinner for my family
•I get to ______ clean bathrooms
•I get to ______ stay up late while my children finish homework
•I get to ______ work from home

Realize that not everyone GETS to do these things. Someone in the world would love to do the things we get to do every single day. Things we often take for granted. And sure, it seems silly to apply it to the things no one typically loves to do, like doing laundry that never seems to end or cleaning the house just to see it end up messy again. But even those things we get to do because we have a Heavenly Father who allows us to have the people or things in our life that create all that laundry and all those messes to clean.

So I'll pose the question to you: What do you get to do today? Tell me in the comments. I can't wait to hear what you GET to do.

I had very good intentions of waiting until after

I had very good intentions of waiting until after Thanksgiving to pull out the Christmas decorations and then it snowed…..you see how the rest of the story unfolds.

I wish as a homemaker that I had realized sooner h

I wish as a homemaker that I had realized sooner how perfect soup is as a Monday night dinner staple. Most recipes are easy to prepare and can be placed in a crockpot to stay warm until ready. The leftovers also make perfect lunches for the rest of the week.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
For this soup I used the @halfbakedharvest creamy tortellini vegetable soup and added sausage for a little more protein. I prepared it early in the afternoon and it finished cooking until we returned home from practices later that evening. It was simple, delicious, and was used for numerous lunches. A perfect solution all around.

A prayer for you and for myself as we begin a new

A prayer for you and for myself as we begin a new week: "Let the favor of the Lord our God be upon us, and establish the work of our hands; yes, establish the work of our hands." Psalm 90:17
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The seasons of my life have shifted drastically over the past 4 months. I play a much different role in the lives of my children who, after 12 years of homeschooling, now have others who are primarily responsible for their education. My dads recent ALS diagnosis has also brought a valley I never expected. Changes have been big, dramatic and at times completely overwhelming. It is a season where most days I'm doing all I can to just keep my head above water.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
While things are different, it doesn't mean that they are insignificant. Little eyes (well...not so little anymore) are still watching and character is still being built. Who I am and what I believe is truly being tested and exposed.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
J.R. Miller reminds me of these truths. - - "There is nothing insignificant in the life which we live within our own doors. There is nothing which is without influence in the building up of character. One some old rocks the geologist shows you the tracks which birds made ages ago; and the print of the leaf which fell; or the dents made by the pattering raindrops. It was soft sand then - but it hardened afterward into rock, and these marks were preserved, imperishable records of the history of a day that shone uncounted centuries ago.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When the results of life are all gathered up - it will probably be seen that the things in us which have made the deepest and most lasting impression in our homes and upon our children - have not been the things we did with purpose and intention, planning to produce a certain effect - but the things we did when we were not thinking of training or influencing or affecting any other life!"
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
May we be faithful...in the big things and the small.

I was contemplating what a home truly is recently

I was contemplating what a home truly is recently while I drove around our hometown taking pictures of old homes that I knew my parents and grandparents had lived in at one point or another. This house is the one my mom spent many years of her youth in and is the one she lived in when she met my dad who lived two doors down. Isn’t it beautiful?

Houses truly do play such a huge role in the formation of a family. Each home has a story of its own. I look at this one and wish I could hear the ones it holds

A few days later I ran across an incredible sermon series devoted to home-life. It was written in the 1800s but I believe the points made are still relevant today. The beginning was really beautiful so I’m sharing it below.

🤎🤎🤎

If all the different members of a family are faithful in their own places, doing their own part well—the home-life will be a sweet song of holy peace. Whatever its experiences may be—it will always have its undertone of joy. In its darkest nights of trial—it will be brightened by the lamps of affection, which no wintry blast can put out. Secluded from the world, sheltered by its own roof, containing in itself the sources of happiness, and not dependent upon the outside world for its gladness and joy—it matters little whether it is day or night, whether it is calm or stormy without. The true home has a peace which is not broken by earth's tempests! Its love is a fountain of blessing—which does not wither in summer weather, and is not frozen in coldest winter. The possibilities of happiness and blessing in household life, are simply incalculable. All that is needed—is that each member faithfully does his own part.
