Meet Kelli

Hi friend! I'm a blessed wife to super husband Peter and mom to three boys. I'm a self-taught quilter who probably does a lot of things wrong. I get way too excited about gardening, and I'm embarking on a journey of home educating my children. You will also see bits of our home here as we make changes to better reflect our family and our needs. Most of all, I am a child of God striving to serve my Savior. Welcome!
