Homestead

We are starting a new reality. Slowly but surely. Attempting to put 2015 and all its craziness behind us.

What's surprising is that I mostly feel pretty good about it. 

I never thought I would have any interest in moving to Mississippi again and even more so doubted any desire I might have to homestead. But then life took a major left turn. I lost my job. Nearly divorced. We found ourselves completely broke and living in chaos. 

So when family in Mississippi offered a place to live and a fresh start. Saying no was hardly an option. 

So here we are, in rural central Mississippi on a few acres with a fixer upper trailer and 8 kids when we are at full capacity (My four and sister-n-law's four). 

Let the fun begin!
