The Sanford Squad

Faith, Family & Chaos in the Sunshine State

Life’s a little wild when you’ve got four boys, a handful of animals, and a heart full of faith — but we wouldn’t have it any other way.

Hey there! We’re the Sanford Squad — a Florida family of six learning to embrace the chaos and find joy in every season.

There’s Chris (Dad), our steady and hard-working Realtor, and Amber (Mom) — the multitasking mama behind the scenes, homeschooling, running businesses, and keeping everyone (mostly) on track. Then there are our wild, wonderful boys: Weston (10), Oakley (7), Collin (4), and Landry (3) — plus two dogs, three cats, and one very chill bearded dragon. 🐾🦎

We live on five acres of Florida sunshine, where life is equal parts adventure, laughter, and controlled chaos.

☀️ Born and Raised in the Sunshine State

We’re true Floridians who love everything about outdoor life — from lazy beach days and saltwater fishing to backyard swims and muddy feet. Whether we’re splashing in the waves or catching crabs by the dock, water is our happy place.

Life here is loud, full of energy, and never boring — and we wouldn’t change a thing.

🙌 Faith, Family & Everyday Adventures

Our home runs on faith and family first. We believe in raising our boys to love God, love people, and find joy in the journey. Homeschooling lets us spend our days learning side by side — whether that’s through reading, exploring, or discovering how to fix what someone accidentally “experimented” on.

Around here, laughter and grace go hand in hand. Every day brings new lessons, messy moments, and memories worth keeping.

🎥 Why We Started the Sanford Squad

Honestly? Our kids have been begging us to start this for ages! They love the camera, I love to write, and together we realized this blog (and vlog!) could be our creative outlet — a way to share our faith, family life, funny moments, and adventures with others.

Our goal is simple: to document the beautiful chaos that makes our life ours, and to connect with other families walking a similar path.

Here, you’ll find everything from homeschool stories and parenting reflections to family fun, easy meals, and real-life moments — the kind that remind you it’s okay if things aren’t picture-perfect.

💛 Our Motto: Embrace the Chaos

With four boys and a house full of animals, quiet moments are rare and dull days don’t exist. Somewhere along the way, our family motto became “Embrace the Chaos” — because the noise, the mess, and the madness are where the best memories are made.

So grab your favorite drink (or maybe your sunscreen 🌞) and come hang out with us. We’re just a faith-filled Florida family doing our best to live, laugh, learn, and love through every wild, wonderful day.

Welcome to The Sanford Squad — where there’s always something happening, and always love at the heart of it all. ❤️
