Welcome to our sweet old Southern farmhouse! I am just a “50 something” momma with a few home making years experience behind me and I love, love, love to encourage other mommas in the home. I am really a “home-steader” at heart, but I like things to be “pretty” too! Can those two go hand in hand? Of course they can! This blog is proof! My mission is to encourage you to create the loving and nurturing home that you have always wanted to provide for your family. I also would like to invite you to come along with me and my family as we continue to love on this old home place. So, if you are looking for inspiration and motivation for home-cooked and healthy meals, decorating with farmhouse and vintage style, organic gardening, raising kids (and a few animals), DIYs, and so much more, then come often to see me here at the farmhouse. I know that we’ll be friends! I’m just sure of it! I hope that you will feel right at home here and love coming back!
