Who are we?

Hi, I am KMH. I have been married to CK for 20.5 years, mom to MA for 18.5 years, and mom to HM for 16.75 years. We live on a very small homestead in southern Indiana. We raise chickens, turkeys, rabbits, and goats. The chickens and turkeys keep our backyard mowed, the goats keep the woods clear, and the rabbits are just fun to watch.

We have 2 dogs. Opal Katherine is a Jack Russell/Blue Heeler mix. She has more energy than any dog I have ever seen. Geneva Maud (Ginny) is a corgi mix who just recently joined our family. Neither one really guards anything, and they are definitely not shepherding dogs. They mostly just bark at intruders and try to chase chickens. Fortunately the chickens live in portable pens and so are not vulnerable to these attempts.

We are an odd mix of beliefs and practices. Reformed Presbyterian Christians, leaning green/eco-friendly, mostly vegan eating, and we don’t like Wal-Mart.

This blog is really just a place for me to put my thoughts as I work through decisions we are making, have made, and are dealing with their consequences.
