I love Strawberries!! Their color, shape, and of course, their flavor. Yum yum yum!!! So, when we moved to the farm last year I knew we would have a strawberry patch. It wasn't long until I had planted 32 strawberry plants! Here's something interesting about strawberries you may not know, I didn't.. They are second … Continue reading Oh the Wait!!
One Step at a Time…
Today marks another step in the process. It may seem small, but it's forward motion in the right direction. Why is it so hard to step out!?!? I get this great direction and then I sit on it, chew on it, and even talk my self out of like 1000 times before I make the … Continue reading One Step at a Time…

The day finally arrived!! Sophie had been counting down the days until her 12th birthday...Last year about this time last year our 12-year-old cat, Gracie, died.

Hard Things…
Have you ever heard someone say, "adversity builds character?" I have! I think if most of us had a choice we would avoid the hard things in life. That seems to be our nature as human beings. Avoid conflict and difficult situations. I mean, we just want to be happy right? ....As I'm writing that … Continue reading Hard Things…

I … Continue reading Old, Wore Out Junk!!

For those of us that live up North, SPRING has just arrived! Up North- I think the most accurate term is the Midwest, which doesn't compute with me considering if I go much further North I need a passport, but whatever.... Just so happy Spring is here. I must say, coming from the South there … Continue reading Weeds Anyone??

We had no idea when we moved to the farm that we would have such a "magnificent" view of the sun setting every evening! What a beautiful blessing, and we just have to share them with you! These pictures are from last night. During the winter the sun sets over the open field. However, during … Continue reading Magnificent!!
Big Plans.
We decided that 2016 was the year! The year we were going to grow some stuff and grow enough to share with our community. We made "Big Plans", had lots of conversations about what we were going to grow, researched where to buy our seeds, where we will plant the seeds, how we would water … Continue reading Big Plans.
