lucky for me

 I've been thinking and discussing simplicity rather frequently this week. 
The importance of time with friends and family, living closer to nature, not wanting for so much stuff. 
It sounds kind of lame, but in the two years since we left for the farm 
our mentalities on these things has changed drastically.
 Of course I still want nice things sometimes, 
and we still splurge and treat ourselves to things we definitely don't need occasionally. 
But for the most part, all of our money goes to the essentials, gas and animal food, then farm stuff,
there's not much left over for movies, going to the mall, hanging out at bars, or other things most people do.

Lucky for me, I found out how much happier I am without them.

I was out watching them and saw three boys ganging up on one girl, so in a hurry I fixed up a cage and moved her into it. She was visibly shaken, breathing quickly, her hair a mess with tufts pulled out (that was the first sign I saw that something was going on.) The next d...

Justin and Savannah's Wedding - The Reception

The ceremony was simple and sweet, and the reception was the perfect party. A band on the porch, delicious food and drinks, cake and dancing. It was an epic night for everyone involved.   Until next time, Angela Kelly
