~Well, Mr. Webster. You weren’t too bad. I’m a rustic, vintage rancher’s daughter cowgirl in my later 20′s that will be embarking on the greatest adventure of all this summer – marriage. I left a great career that I absolutely loved to start an even better future as a farmer’s wife, side-kick, best friend and confidant. I’m not sure why I started this blog. I guess I’m in that phase of procrastinating planning a wedding, in-between new job work travel and trying to have something of my own in a household now of two (and many critters).

I love old things – mainly old country things. I like to craft and cook. I love my family and my dogs. And most of all, I love my farmer and the decision I made to move to his farm and start a life together.
