Homesteading party food

Homesteading party food

Happy birthday, baby D.! Kayla's almost-adopted foster daughter invited us to a huge party at the corn maze last weekend to celebrate her second birthday. We had a great time hanging out, riding on the hay wagon, and sampling party food cute enough to star on pinterest.

Thanks for the invitation, Kaya! Putting physical distance between us is harder than leaving the farm I've nurtured for the last decade. Let's plan to meet in the middle soon!
