Greetings, my name is Evann. My husband and I are originally from New Orleans, but for the past 17 years we have called Missouri our home. We have lived in Massachusetts and Wisconsin as well, always taking our New Orleans music and food with us where ever we go. In my previous life, before 26 years of marriage and 6 wonderful children, I was an ad agency art director and still do freelance print and web design. We have homeschooled all 6 kids for a total of 20 years of homeschooling experience. In addition to Homeschool Goodies, I am the webmaster of the Virtual St. Joseph Altar which made its online debut in 1999.
