ReplyDelete:) Such a great post!!
ReplyDeleteAwesome getting to know more about you! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI had to tell you again how honored I/we are to have you nominate us for the Leibster award. I love meeting the people who are doing the same things we are and have a common goal and achievements in mind. How exciting. I really like what you guys are doing -the next generation carrying on family traditions. Keeping those memories alive and paying tribute to your hard working ancestors. You would think this homesteading thing is a new idea by the movement of go green these days -so many people forget or just don't realize that this was a way life for those before them. I look forward to keeping up with you and the happenings around your place. The post on our blog answering your questions and with our nominees will be up on Friday. Thanks again for the nomination.
