for all i care...

my heart is completely strong and beating within me for you all visiting this weekend

if i could show you my heart, it would be cracking my rib bones from the swelling of love for this event

i love it


 i love the excitement, the stress, the organization, the emails, the phone calls...


i seriously (seriously) can say i do not care if it rains, snows, hails, or if the sun shines bright

                                 all i care is that i make this a place for you to take time to enjoy


enjoy this gift of life that God has given you...

to hear the symphony of blessings amongst the prickly thorns

to look upon the land and see the glorious nature and feel the softness of the grass as it sways

that the time here you spend is not for you, but to glorify

glorify the One who gave it to you


a thankful embrace of the autumn splendor which our (oh so needs work) farmette has

you will never find grandeur here

don't expect a marvelously weeded bed with clean stalls and immaculately clean children

we live a real life and within that real life is a chorus of praise for what we have no matter how much work it
is, or the amount of dirt that gets under our fingernails

no matter how much we try, it never (ever) is the way we dream it will be

not one thing in this life is perfect

not one

but it's ours......

it's our home.......a place we have settled down

all i care is that i make this a place for you to take time to enjoy......somewhere to come with friends or your mom......

to come say hi in the bakery where i will be with my sister, daughter, and dear friend.......

to pick out something special i baked with you in mind

to get a cup of coffee and sit beneath the branches in my 'natural bakery' and listen to the live music and chat....dream....relax.........

this takes a lot of work

a lot of effort on all our parts - all the dealers sitting in their creative spaces and making one of a kind creations that they love and want to share......the hours of painting and refinishing the furniture..........the excitement of finding vintage flannels all around the Midwest to compliment your favorite tall boots and leggings........

work within the families coordinating time for their mom to go out with her friends

effort to save up money to enjoy some shopping to ruffle your nest

the drive out to our farm

it means more than you all know having you here and helping support those men and women who are amazing creators and artists

for all i care.........

peace + blessings,
