Hi, I’m Ellen!

I’m a wife to my highschool sweetheart, Ben & we have been together for 13 years. We have a 12 year old boy, and a 16 month old girl. Ben joined the Navy which lead to us being stationed in Washington state and then San Diego, CA. We moved back to our home state of New Hampshire four years ago to be closer to family and buy our first home.

This year we got chickens which have been so fun to care for. It was a good first step for our homestead. We will be growing a ton of vegetables this summer and expanding our flower gardens. We are excited for the changes that are coming and would love for you to follow along!

Since we know 2020 was a year we are happy to put behind us, to top it off I quit my job as a hairdresser and decided I was going to start a blog! Follow my family and I along on our first homestead while we strive to live a fulfilled simple life.
