Happy 4th of July everyone!

I just wanted to pop in really quick on this beautiful summer holiday to say how grateful I am for my country.  I dreamed my whole life about living on a farm with a nice husband, a bunch of sweet kids and a dog.  Our life hasn’t always been perfect or easy, and we’ve had to work really hard together, but I know that everything we have been able to do and achieve is possible because of this beautiful nation we live in.  I hope I never take for granted the freedom and opportunities it has given me.  And I hope I teach my kids to honor that freedom by living their best life.

oh and meet Ollie

Our new toy poodle puppy.

(We’re all a little smitten by him.)

Wishing you a safe and happy 4th of July!
