We feel so undeserving of this recognition, as there are so many in our community who do so much! But we also can’t express our gratitude to have been nominated for this months issue of Blue Ridge Living. Our home means so much to us, and the people here mean even more ❤️

Thank you to our community near and far who have helped us land here, and who encourage us to continue growing and doing more! For us, it’s about family and serving the community that built us. Raising our children to know Jesus and make Him known. Building a family that works hard for others before ourselves. Keeping the old ways alive one day at a time.

Would love for you to snag a copy and read the article! We love being known as “the ones who sell honey,” but there’s more to our story than that ❤️

This month, Blue Ridge Living shares the story of the Owenby family!
For Caleb and Lauren Owenby, life together began long before
marriage, careers, or children. Their story started in the hallways
of Fannin County High School, where they met as teenagers and
began dating during the 11th grade. What began as a high school
romance eventually grew into a lifelong partnership rooted in shared
values, family traditions, and a deep love for the community they both
call home.

She’s home. She’s droopy. She is super restless. But she’s not without endless love ❤️

UPDATE! The vet’s office said that she came through surgery and was doing good afterwards. We will pick her up at 4 and bring her home to rest and heal! Thanks for the support for our girl! 💕

The face of our family is going into surgery today. If you’ve been to our place, you know our Molly girl. Her energy and love are unmatched!

I believe God cares for all of His creation, including our animals who mean so much to us. We are trusting Him to care for her well today. If you will, say a prayer for her as well. We love our girl so much and want her healthy 💕💕

Just know when my son tells you he likes to eat pink chicken, he’s referring to salmon 🍣 His mama doesn’t actually feed him raw chicken 😂

Tonight was salmon and alfredo 🤤 YUM!

I put this on way too many foods 🤤 if it tastes good, hot honey is just going to make it that much better!

Hey, hey there, friend.

Just here with a reminder that social media is only bits and pieces.

It’s not 24/7 of everyone’s day.

It’s not all the details.

It’s not usually the ugly and in between moments.

It’s typically the highlight reel. What people want you to think of their lives.

But let me be real with you- that’s not what I’m looking for here.

I don’t post to create an idea of something we aren’t.

I share because this IS our REAL LIFE.

But… comparison is such thief. The thief of joy. And social media is exactly where many find themselves in comparison.

So here’s the deal… yes. We farm. Yes, we grow and preserve a lot of our own food. Yes, I buy and cook whole foods. No, we don’t do a lot of processed, packaged, or artificially colored/flavored foods. Yes, I cook a lot from scratch.

But have you ever heard me say always? No. It’s not always perfect or ideal. Some weeks, we hit fast food after ball practice. Some days, we’ll down chips and cheese dip at the Mexican restaurant. And yes… I love it.

And days like today, I’ll pop a frozen pizza in the oven and not feel even a little bit bad about it.

Today has been full! Church, family, a large grocery trip. Hubby has had to work all day to meet a deadline at his job. Days like today aren’t our norm, but I’m a real person. A real mom with a real life and who sometimes gets real tired.

So tonight, I grabbed this baby at the grocery for $2, popped it in the oven and we’ll eat it outside in the sunshine on the picnic table.

I’ve encountered so many other moms from here who say things like, “well I don’t feed my kids as good as you do..”

If you know nothing else about me, know this. I’m not judging. I have zero opinion about how you’re raising or feeding your family. That’s your family, not mine. I share because others have shared and taught me. But it’s never perfect and I hope you always see the real here as well. We are all a work in progress. As I learn more, I do better.

But by golly, I won’t feel bad chowing down on this frozen pizza dipped in ranch. My kids are going to love it and it’s going to be a good evening.

It’s balance, people. It’s real life ❤️

If there’s something to be found, the littles are going to find it! Today was a dove’s egg! 🥚 kids wanted to “keep it forever.”

☀️ TIS THE SEASON!!

For park lunches and pasta salad! If you’ve followed us for any amount of time, you know this is our FAVORITE spring and summer lunch!

I sneak it in the winter sometimes as well, but this time of year the veggies just hit differently! So so good!

How do you prefer your pasta salad?? 🥗 🥒 🫑 🍅

Little man took on the bee yard with daddy this week 🐝 🐝

His little commentary was TOO CUTE!

I just want to remind you that experiences like these with your children are worth far more than the actual moment itself. As I put him to bed that night and asked if he’d had fun, he said, “yes mama and I was so strong and brave like daddy!”

While the adults are storing memories, these babies are building character. 💪🏻
