Hey there. I'm glad you found me!
My name is Kayla, and I'm a 26 year-old newlywed trying my hand at country living. I've been out here for about five years, and I feel like I'm just now starting to get a handle on things. Life in the sticks sure isn't what I'd always expected when I dreamed of a nice little secluded house. There's so much that comes with being out in the boonies that I never thought of. For instance, that darned yard needs to be mowed every week!
My neighbors have been around for decades, so my husband and I are the new kids on the block. Not being as established as everyone else around, we don't have as many resources for sprucing up the place as I'd like. Nonetheless, I don't want the neighbors staring at an eyesore, and I like living in a nice place, so I'm trying to improve.
So that's what this blog will document. I like doing things myself, and that just so happens to be the cheapest way of doing things! Home improvement, baking, crafts...anything DIY is what I love to do. I'll share recipes, give tutorials, and show you what country living is all about.
But first, I'll show you a little about myself.
This is me and my husband Steven.
We're a little goofy, but totally crazy about each other. We went to elementary school together, lost touch, and then reconnected in 2009. We got married last year.
These are our two daughters, Tinkerbell and Ruka. Don't be fooled by their appearance - they're the two sweetest mutts I've ever known.
And our boy Jinx. Don't be fooled by his appearance either. He's not a sweet kitty - he hates everyone but us!
And finally this backwoods home in question. I bought this home when I was 21, and had no idea what I was getting into. It's been a curse and a blessing, and I love it with all my heart.
So now you know a little about me, and hopefully you'll be back for more. I can't wait to get started.
