Man, oh man. Last night was the first night at the new property. After a long first day, we snuggled in and shut it down. This morning we wanted to film it raw. To share our thoughts and a first day recap.

Today is the day! We are moving into homestead 2.0. We are prepping, we are moving, and we even did some battle with a bat. It really feels like it has been a long road to get home. To find a home. To

Oh man! We are getting so excited. Tomorrow we will take possession of the new land we call home!! Everyone has different ideas though. There are things we will all miss about the road, and things we will
