12. joyfuljohnsons.blogspot.com Actually someone I know and who would recognize me at the grocery store. Roan and I have been friends in real life for about 10 years as we live in the same area and both homeschool. Our paths don't often cross much these days as she and her family are busy running and my family is busy with our homesteading endeavors. Roan is just as sweet in person as she is on her blog. Her family is just as sweet as well!

Hello, i can't remember exactly,maybe grocery cart ? i was searching for infos about menu planning and " simple " living
sorry, i choose anonymous instead of name : Adeline from france
Hmm...I must have found you through a link on someone else's blog for the Botkin Curriculum advice cds...which I won, and love, BTW! :)
So glad I found you, however it was!
I can't remember-probably Raising Homemakers although for some reason I thought it was through a Five in a Row link. I read Raising Olives too.
Sorry to be so vague.
Someone suggested your blogs facebook. I think it was Cindy Ray, but dont hold me on that, then I was added to the homestead group, also by Cindy Ray. Yall are both pretty awesome women. I love your blog
What a great question! I don't completely remember...but it was probably from Raising Homemakers. Either way, I am SO glad that I did! You are such a sweet heart! I don't know you in real life but sure wish I did. I would love to work side by side in your kitchen, learning to can and freeze the yummies you all make! :D
Blessings, sister!

I honestly can't remember how I first found you. It would have either been through another blog I read or by searching my interests and related blogs through blogger. I'm so glad I did find you though, I really enjoy your blog!
Blessings,
Rashel
I like most others dont remember how I came across your blog...but my choice would be you must have commented on another blog I read and your comment made me want to check out your blog...I have been reading you for quite some time now and have never commented I dont believe...I also would love to be in your kitchen when all that cooking is going on...from reading your blog and all that you freeze, I now cook bigger dinners to freeze leftovers to use at another time...Just wanted to let you know I love your blog and enjoy reading about your family...

If I remember correctly, I believe I started following after reading a link up from the Barn Hop, don't quote me because I could be wrong! I love all the ideas you share...I believe my favorite story was about the trampoline chicken tractor...I thought that was a fabulous idea!
Thanks for all the wonderful ideas that you share.
I'm here from Homestead Revival. Love your blog and the wonderful resources that you share.
I honestly don't know. It may be raisingolives, or megafamilies. Anyway, cute picture of your little girl.
Hi! After I adopted 3 little girls to add to the three I am now raising on my own. I was looking for tips on large families and simple living. I would love to live a homestead life style so your tips, sincerity spoke to my heart as I too have been called to live a life that is much different from typical. I believe I found your blog from a comment on a linky through Raising Olives. DeAnn 6jellybeans@blogspot
Actually, I've only been reading your blog for about a week, but it still took me awhile to remember how I got here! Your breakfast prep blog was featured on The Homeschool Channel, I linked from there and have been coming back every couple of days to "catch up".
I actually can't remember how I found your blog. I've been coming here for quite awhile. It may have been through one of the homesteading blogs you mentioned.......
I just keep a running list on my sidebar of blogs I like to visit and I run through them to catch up.
I've always enjoyed visiting here.
God bless.
