Cameron’s Aunt Joyce is one of my favorite people! She has been kind and supportive since the very first time I met her. She is strong and one of the hardest working women I know. If you have come to our market you have probably seen her at the gate. She usually does tickets, but…
2020 Fall Market
Just a week ago we were cleaning up the farm and grounds from our fall market. It always blows my mind how quickly everything fades and goes back to normal. All we have left are the memories and I think our 2020 fall market is my new favorite. Maybe because we worked so hard to…
Grandma’s Chinese Coffee Cake
I don’t remember my grandma Watkins, but I really like her based on the stories my mom has shared with me about her. One of my favorites is how when company would pop in for a visit she would whip up her Chinese Coffee cake or pull a Sara Lee pound cake out of the…
Our White Farmhouse
HI there and welcome to our home! A year ago we were fixin to embark on another adventure. We had no idea at this time a year ago we were going to be moving and renovating another house. We had just wrapped up a remodel at our Airbnb and a part of me was hoping…
The Potting Shed
Back in March the kids and I were spending a lot of time outside. I was doing a ton of yard work and day dreaming about growing all the things as spring started showing up everywhere. One day, on a whim I decided to clean out a corner in the workshop and make it our…
Fresh Salsa
When we were first married I did not like cilantro, now it is one of my favorite herbs! We lived in Texas our first six years of marriage and I learned so much about peppers and salsa. Cameron loves hot food and now our little ones like salsa as well! Ingredients: 5 Tomatoes ( I…
Our 2020 Garden
Having a garden does something for my heart and soul and every year I am reminded at how much I love having one. There have been years when a garden had to get put on the back burner due to remodels or tiny babies. So years it happens it feels extra special. I used to…
Shylah’s Texas Caviar
My friend Shylah makes the best concoction ever! She calls it Texas Caviar, but it isn’t sweet like some I have had and it has black beans not black eyed peas. It is PERFECT for this time of year! I am excited to make it with our garden veggies this year. It’s super simple and…
Spring on the Farm
It is quite possibly my favorite time of year to check cows! All the new baby calves on the ground, the trees are opened up and wildflowers and old homestead flowers are popping up everywhere at the farm. We are done calving for the spring and it is so cute to see all the babies…
Fishing at the Farm
This past week it rained nearly everyday. But there was one evening when the sky cleared out and the sun came out right before it set and Cam promised the kids he would take them fishing at the farm. They have been wanting to throw a line at all the new ponds for awhile to…
