Wow, November went by fast! So many good things…Thanksgiving (complete with plenty of card games for all!), our new full-time business plan for the flower farm going even better than we’d hoped, lots of fall prep work like putting in tulip and daffodil bulbs, time out in the sunshine as a family… This year has …
You guys. Can I just say that ever since my husband and I decided about a month ago that we were officially going to take our flower farm full time and not have my husband look for another job elsewhere that life has been a little insane? True, it’s been insane in the best kind …
