Come Follow Us on Our Journey

We left the city with dreams of a country life. 



    Our idea was to get our family away from the distractions and influence of the city, allowing us to connect with God and each other.  2 years into our journey we have a decent start. Starting with very little money, and big dreams can be challenging to say the least.  We bought 5 acres with a small home, 2 septic systems, a well (we knew we had to have that), and not much else.  Not even trees, save for the little pear tree and the couple of mesquite trees.
    My mother (actually my grandmother) decided she did not want to stay in the city.  She bought a little mobile home and had it set up and hooked up to the other septic.  We tapped into the well for her water. We were lucky to have a large 2,000 gallon water storage tank so we have plenty of water and pressure.
    Long story short, I wanted to share with everyone.  If this is your dream... it can happen. You can make it work! We will be building the blog as time allows, and we will try and keep you as up to date as we can.  We started with blank canvas, and I will have to get you all up to speed.  I hope this will be as much fun for you as it has been for us!
