About Me

Raymond Homestead: Hi, I'm Mindy, welcome to my homestead. I decided to create this blog just for fun. Some days you might find something interesting, some days not. I love the primitive, rustic, vintage and farmhouse style. Love making things and just enjoying family and friends! I also started a blog for our church, a place to retrieve information for anyone interested.
