This is my family, Nora aka Mrs. DaybyDay, Mr. DaybyDay, Lady-in-Training aka LiT, Man-in-Training aka MiT, and our oldest daughter and her husband, Beth and Todd. Beth has her own blog located at http://thelifeofathw.blogspot.com/
We are a pretty simple family, whose mission is to be as self-reliant as we possibly can except from the reliance on OUR HEAVENLY FATHER.
We are trying our hand at raising a flock of chickens (8 of them! 7 hens and 1 rooster), growing as much of our vegetables as possible. Oh, and also seeing if we can squeeze in growing fruit trees and berries. We also would love to start an herb garden for cooking and medicinal purposes.
Mr. DaybyDay, Man-in-Training (aka MiT), Lady-in-Training (aka LiT), and I live in rural SW Missouri. Very beautiful area most times but we have had extremely hot summers here lately, and always watchful of the weather due to the chances of tornadoes.
We would love to increase in our self-sufficiency skills monthly. So far, we are learning that this change in lifestyle is not natural for us (neither of us was raised in this lifestyle, both raised in cities, I was raised in Upstate NY, and Mr. DaybyDay was raised in Indy) but we are learning that it is fun.
So....as we roll up our sleeves in learning how to do all these plans we have made, we hope that you all enjoy reading of our journey and just maybe, you too will join in. :)
