Glad to be Home!

We made it back to Indiana late Tuesday night and hit the homestead running Wednesday morning. Mother Nature has sure made it difficult to slow down and rest like we would normally do in the wintertime. So far since we've returned we've fixed a broken gate, cleaned out a bee hive, celebrated a kid's birthday, burned off some of the garden spot, assembled a bbq grill, and mapped out new fence lines. Whew! DH took off for work this morning and now I'm getting time to sit down and catch up to date here.

Today I'll share about our trip. As I said before it was a quick run to Texas to visit family and the Mother Earth News Fair. We had a blast! It's always great to see relatives and the fair was very enjoyable. Besides getting to hang out with like-minded people, we learned a lot and got to see some awesome products and crafters.
