Payden and I have been married for 12 years and have three children – an eldest daughter and two sons. We live in Central Virginia on a roughly two-acre property that we are turning into a homestead. Payden is a career firefighter/EMT and I’ve quit my full-time job to be a full-time homemaker.
Our shared convictions are driving us to return to the fundamentals of simple living and focus on our family. So we’re coming home! Join us as we embark on the journey of homeschooling + homesteading.
