Aah, employment
Starfish Daddy accepted a job today working with the computer side of family history for our church (the LDS church). Yay! But, sadly, we won't be moving to any large chunk of land anytime soon. He said he already volunteered to be the first one to go set up an office in Missouri. For now, we'll keep "homesteading" on our one acre. (And yes, we still need a job - thank goodness he has one again.)

what a relief!
What a relief! I am very glad to hear that your husband was able to find employment....... and with the family history department! We have so enjoyed the newfamilysearch.org........ it's not available church wide, but in our district....... I have expierenced miracles with this program! It's awesome! Makes doing family history a cinch!

How exciting! What fun it would be to move to Missouri if (when ;) that happened! My mom and most of the kids wanted to move when the Pickering’s moved, but alas... my dad didn't want to, and he didn't have a job out there!
Anyway, I just wanted to share something with you really quick... you might have already seen this, but today I found (accidentally ;)(well...there are never any accidents!!) a video about a family in California that lives on 1/5 of an acre and they grow ALL the produce that they need!! AND they even have extra that they sell to restaurants!! They even have chickens, goats, etc.!! Here’s the link for their website: www.pathtofreedom.com...don’t you just love the title?? Also, here it the movie that I found: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mCPEBM5ol0Q&eurl=http://www.homesteadblogger.com/blessingsabound/
It really is amazing to think what they can do with so little! We used to just have 0.35 acres but we just bought (my grandparents actually) the pasture behind us so we almost have an acre… anyway, it really opened our eyes to what we can do with what God has chosen to bless us with! We would love to have more… but for some reason He wants us here. Sorry to ramble… it’s just something I do when I’m excited about something!! Have a WONDERFUL thanksgiving!!!
Blessings,
Alex

About Me
Welcome to our family blog! We appreciate you stopping in and reading about our family. Life is a journey in more ways than one.... this blog shares our joys and challenges with "homesteading" on just one acre in suburbia, raising a LARGE family, cooking, canning, gardening, adoption, waiting for the time to be right to move to the country (and preparing for that time), and finally, other musings of this mama's heart.
