Alright friends, some exciting news – my little sister is getting married! This weekend my Mom, older sister, and I threw her a lovely rustic wedding shower at my farmhouse. My little sister is one of a kind. Thoughtful, sweet, and always has been. Truly. She is just one of those amazing people. She has…
Sometimes a Mama LIES …
I wish I wasn’t writing this post. I wish I was writing to tell you about all of the fluffy baby chicks we now have in our barn. I wish I was writing about what a wonderful Mama Chloe turned out to be. I wish I was telling you this, but I’m not going to….
Chloe is soon to be a Mama! (…hen)
Perhaps you remember a few weeks ago when I excitedly wrote to you about our broody hen? Our sweet Henny Penny who had taken to laying her eggs in a nest in the bush? Well, it turns out she wasn’t broody at all … That sweet girl simply decided she would rather lay her eggs…
A Different Way of Doing Things…
You may have noticed something a little different around here over the past few months. No more distracting, terrible advertising.

Two Ingredient Jelly
I thought I would share something a little different this morning. While I generally share ideas for playing, learning, and exploring with little ones, I thought I might share something I just cooked up (heehee). We’ve been on our little farm for exactly one year now. Part of the reason we moved out here was…
10 Things I Wish I Knew Before Moving to the Country…
In just a few days I will officially have lived in the country for an entire year. One whole year living a very different lifestyle then I had before. So, just for fun, I thought I would write about my first year in the country … actually about what I wish I knew before living…
My Secret Garden
A photo on Friday – Garden edition. I thought I would share a few pictures of our garden with you. I shared our Super foods Vegetable Garden Plan with you awhile ago, and we have been busy, busy, busy, turning our lawn into that garden. Since this is only our first summer in this home…
Happy Canada Day!
While I know there are very few fellow Canadians that share this space with me, I am a very proud Canadian. Happy Birthday Canada.
