All about me: A way to avoid homework

I need to do an official introduction of myself for Simply Southern Homesteading, however, when I started listing out what makes me me, it got a little too long for a Facebook status.

This is me.

Ok, so truth is, that was me 2 years ago April 30th. Getting ready for our camoflauge wedding held at deer camp....it doesn't get more country than that! My hair is shorter, and a different color, but I don't have many good pictures of myself because I'm always the one taking pictures!!

I am mom of 5 children (ages 1, 2, 5, 7, & 8). I am a stay at home mom by day, most days....others I'm a full-time student studying pharmacy or an independent consultant for doTERRA essential oils (And, yes, I do realize those are on 2 opposite ends of the health care spectrum).

I hunt (bow only so far...this year I'm learning about guns), fish, bowfish, camp, 4wheeler ride, horseback ride, bake, cook mostly from scratch (my 2 year old has life threatening food allergies), garden (huge garden in my back yard), attempt to can from the garden harvest, craft, sew, build things, do most of the at home fix-ups, host a bible study, do karate, volunteer in the community, at church and for organizations we as a family are passionate about.

I am an old fashioned heart in a young body. I believe in living conservatively, naturally, and as self sufficiently as much as possible.

I have a strong relationship with the Lord, that is growing more everyday.

Phew. That was a long. I'm a lot busier than I had realized! :-)
