Now that we have a new little member of the family on the way, I realized that if I wanted all of our stockings to coordinate with my farmhouse decor and each other, I would need new stockings. Michael and I wanted to share how we created these one-of-a-kind rustic-style stockings using only things we had lying around the farmhouse. (more…)

We are making some real headway on the new bathroom. Last weekend my parents came for the day to help move the project forward.

On the their way home from my grandpa’s 81st birthday party, my parents and sister were able to stop by for a few hours and help with the bathroom situation. As I have said, we have been very humbled by the recent realization that the bathroom we are adding to the farmhouse is something we can’t handle on our own. My family has been so wonderful in helping us every chance they can to try to get the bathroom done before winter comes. (more…)

One young rooster is starting to practice his amateur crowing, which sounds a bit like a cat being strangled. (more…)
