The Hobblet Family Lifestyle Blog

Hi, I’m Katrina, a quirky mama of two wild-hearted, metalhead daughters, a pack of rescue pets (two dogs, Rosie and Scout, and two cats), and wife to my best friend: a motorcycle-riding, guitar-shredding carpenter who helps bring all my big, weird ideas to life. We homeschool our girls, embrace an alternative lifestyle, and live each day with creativity, compassion, and a whole lot of loud music.

If you're a fellow oddball, a homeschooling parent, an animal lover (especially pitbulls), or just someone craving a more intentional and inspired creative life (with a lot of ADHD neurospicy sprinkled in), you’ve found your people.

This space is where I share our family’s journey through gentle parenting, alternative education, creative projects, eclectic style, homegrown adventures, and the occasional recipe I swear I’m finally going to try.

So grab your coffee (or your cauldron), subscribe to the newsletter, and let’s create something magical together, a community of rockstar mamas!

This is one of those things that I wanted to share with someone who has struggled or is struggling, so they feel less alone and maybe learn from my own experience!

Mr. Moo) was one of the hardest experiences of my life. He was a part of my soul. I knew the moment I met him, he was a part of me. I write this in the hope that sharing my experience can help others navigate the long road of
