Hello. I am new here.
I live in Virginia.
We live in the city now; but we own some farm land and are planning on building our retirement home soon.
We have been married going on 31 years.
I was born in the country, lived on a small farm.
Moved to a county, it was country then, in the second grade.
The farmers in that area started selling their land. and now that place is crowded
The place where I grew up until I was in second grade is still small.
I am a country farm girl waiting to get back in the country.
My hushand will be rasing cattle. we have 3 head on the family farm. 3 brothers and another one later will be there on the family farm divided between 4 brothers.
Any hows I am glad I am here.
I have the first book I think it is of Farm girl.
I want the Stiching Room one too and made the Wisdom and inspration one. PINKROSES |

Hello, Sheila! It kind of tugs at the ol' heartstrings to see beautiful open farmland give way to concrete, asphalt and automobiles, doesn't it?
This is a very warm, welcoming group of farmgirls. I think you'll like it here.

Welcome Sheila!
I love pink roses too! We moved into this house 3 years ago and I inherited 6 pink rose bushes that the lady who lived here for 40 years grew. It is a privilege to be their caretaker now!
You will love it here!

Thanks for the warm welcome.
The reason I picked pinkroses. was because I do like pink, and roses. so there that is how it came to be.
I loved the country and can't wait to get back in it.
Thank again for the warm welcome. Pinkroses. |

Hi Sheila - I simply adore pink roses and my guess is so do you! You will not find a better group of women if you look the world over - these gals have been with me through thick and thin and I am proud to be a part of this special community of Farm Girls!
Blessed Be for the Enchanted Wood in NJ
