About Me

My photo
carricomom
Humboldt County California, United States
35 year old warrior woman. Mother of two daughters and one son. Bug 7 years old. Sunny is 5. And Mr Earp just turned 1 year old. My husband and I have been married 11 years. We live the rural country life. Happy to homestead and homeschool. We raise our own meat, pigs, chickens, rabbits. And grow some of our food. I knit every spare second I have, which with 3 kids under 7 is not as often as I would like.
