Howdy Friends! We are happily celebrating a beautiful fall here in Tennessee, thankful for the new season of harvest. Back in September we released our new cd, "Farmers Daughter" just in time for the Mountaineer Folk Festival we were singing at in Pikeville. Wow, those last few weeks were a mad rush and seemed to fly by so fast! The weekend after we had a cd release party hosted at our farm for close friends and family, and everyone had a blast and it was a great success, thanks to the Lord. We had friends bring their music, songs and instruments and there was loads of food too! Here are a few pictures we'd liked to share with y'all from those super fun events!
Our new cd, "Farmers Daughter", is now available to order online! You can find it exclusively on our website www.homestead-blessings.com 
This new Homestead Blessings product is a perfect gift for the holiday season, or to have for any day on the farm!

And we had little visitors on our porch this afternoon!

At some point in your life, there is going to come a time when you just have to lighten up and laugh at yourself. One of the best moments and memories we have of being able to do just that, was the first time our family watched this video. One of our awesome (and creative!) friends put this together with a little hard work and ingenuity, and seriously, we loved it!  


Take a couple of minutes to watch this music video, and smile when you think of us. :) 
You can find our CD with the official music video to the song Green Beans in the Garden here

Finally, we are working on recording a new CD!! Yeah!

Well it has been a very busy and exciting summer for us here at Homestead Blessings. Gardening, canning, swimming in the creek, cleaning house, farming, hauling hay and fellowshiping with other like minded believers on the front porch while the sun sank west over the hills. We have had some cooler weather already, a little early this year I think. The other morning we had a fire going in our wood cookstove and it felt so nice and cozy. We are always greatful for fall to come, bringing the cooler beautiful weather and bluegrass festivals in eastern Tennessee. Bluegrass festivals are a wonderful part of our lives and we always look froward to going to them and hearing good music, eating good food and meeting new people. We are currently working on the "Homestead Blessings Cookbook" which will be out sometime this fall, we're hoping. Also coming up soon we'll be filming the next three Homestead Blessings DVD's, so keep an eye out for them. Well,take care ya'll, and may you have many God given homestead blessings!
