I grew up in a small town in Utah, inside the city
limits. The closest I came to being
raised around a farm was my great grandma Mimi, when I was little she had
chickens, peacocks and a large garden.
My parents were more into horsepower than any sort of real horse. Sure we had a family dog, tried out hamsters
and rabbits both which were eventually “set free.” I have always had a draw to the farm life and
after moving away from small town Utah and trying out a fewer bigger cities, following my dreams and having way
too much fun I decided to move back to small town Utah and work at the family
business.
It was a big adjustment; I had enjoyed the luxuries of a
bigger town, shopping, good restaurants and a night life to name a few. All of which my hometown is lacking. I settled down, met a nice guy and got
married and somewhere along the way I decided I want to be a farmgirl. We have 2 dogs, 9 chickens and
one recently purchased horse.
I've never been a girly girl per say... but I do like girly things. I grew up the only girl in the family so I always tagged along with my brothers and did guy things so I didn't have to miss out on anything. I bought my first Harley Davidson when I was 17 and have traveled the western United States with my Dad, brothers and friends where I was normally the only girl to go on road trips. So in some ways I'm girly and other ways I'm not. I have a weakness for shoes, purses and cars. I decided to start a blog because I'm not very good at this farmgirl stuff and always have stories of how not good I am. Life is an adventure, this is mine.
