Outpost: a station established at a distance from the main body. It is not a place to hide, but a place to prepare. As homeschoolers, we are preparing our children for the journey that has been set before them through the world. Our home is a station where we feed, nourish and equip our children for this journey. It is our hope to share with you the tools and equipment we have discovered and developed. Welcome to our outpost.

Relay for Life Family Competition
Last April my grandmother found out she had cancer. My girls and I packed up and headed to California at the end of May, intending to help my grandpa take care of my grandma and household tasks until she recovered. Eight days after we arrived, she quietly passed away in the hospital. This was not our first encounter with cancer, my husband's mother died of breast cancer when we were teens. In honor of both of these wonderful ladies, our family is walking in the Relay for Life in June. To make it fun, our family is having a contest amongst ourselves to see who can raise the most money. The winner gets to choose dinners for a whole week AND not have to do chores for a whole week! Please help us out by donating here. This is our team page and the competition is among the Nourse sisters (and mom). Better yet, join our team and walk with us!
