About Us

Hi there.  Funny, I’m not quite so good at talking about myself.  There’s never a sure fire way to entertain with an entrance like mine. Hello, I’m Monie. What is your name?  Pretty lame.  Seriously though?  I’m originally a surfer girl from the OC who has moved around the States only to find out that I’m in love with the Country life.  I met my husband during my travels and finally planted some roots in the ground here in Texas.   So now?  Now, I’ve had the pleasure of living out my dream life learning how to Homestead with my little family of four.   Both my husband and I lost our mother’s shortly after we were married so, we have been each other’s “rock” since.

Together, we’re unstoppable.  We laugh, cry and act a little (lot) silly most the time.  We are both working in the Corporate world which means our lives have taken on at least 3 full time jobs.  We’ve bought ourselves a piece of heaven we call the MmmHomestead.  We are hell bent on teaching and instilling the values in our kids we didn’t feel were happening with the “city” life.   Believe me, it’s a challenge.  But, the rewards?  The rewards of watching our kids unplug and learn skills, the rewards of sitting on your porch watching a sunrise or sunset….

We look forward to helping those starting out their homesteading dreams!  We love to share our knowledge and our mishaps. Life isn’t perfect and neither are we.  One thing to rest assured with?  We are good, honest people.  We want a better life for our children and each other.  Here’s to continuous learning the homestead life!
