2018 Update 🌲🍋🏄📚Plant-Based, Reduced Waste, Adventures, Homeschooling Family of Four

Hi Youtube friends! I'm posting what feels like an annual, 'hey, remember us' video 😜 This is a quick compilation of what we've been up to in 2018, minus Shane's GoPro footage and some other things we've done that I left the camera behind for. We are a family of four that currently live in the rural Pacific Northwest of the United States. We are a plant-based family that is always trying to reduce our waste. The general theme of our Youtube Channel is around our ongoing practice of eating better and lowering our impact on the environment. We are far from perfect at both, but have found daily habits and hacks that help us achieve our goals that we share with you. Shane is super active in paddleboarding, skateboarding, he's been getting into barefoot running, he dirtbikes (let's be honest- when his bike is running), snowshoes... I'm sure there's more than that. He eats a primarily vegan diet and credits it for helping him bounce back from injuries, stay in shape, and feel good. I just committed to running a blog and doing more media production our our Plant Based Reduced Waste lifestyle. I'll be putting out meal plans soon too! Our two boys are now four and eight. This will be our second year homeschooling them. The first year we focused on the essentials of reading, writing, and arithmetic. We mixed in a little Waldorf inspired curriculum with saints and fables work, and I introduced a couple projects based on what our state wanted kids in Kelly's grade to learn. It was homeschooling eclectic at its finest 🤓😬We've been doing homeschool light over the summer and I'm still working on what our 2018/2019 school year is going to look like. In the near future I'll be posting more frequently with how to videos, tutorials, vlogs, and more. I love Youtube and participate in the community as a viewer. I've always wanted to do more as a creator. Our plan is to create content that is applicable for both men and women, focusing on families who share the same values as us and are just looking for some camaraderie in acting those values out. Thank you for subscribing and being a supporter of what we've done in the past. Let me know what you would like to see from us here on Youtube.
