Christmas 2019

Hope you all had a wonderful holiday season! We camped in Savannah and Hilton Head over Thanksgiving and enjoyed visiting my family there. Our Christmas was simple and low key this year.  Brett was actually home for both Christmas Eve and Christmas Day for the first time in over ten  years. We are grateful for our health and blessings this year!

We cut our Leland Cypress from our local friend Mr. Jim at Mountain Meadows Farm this year! It was just beautiful.

Gang's all here!

SANTA CAME!!!

Cowbean had a very merry Christmas!

Our talented friend Bell Price snapped this precious Christmas photo.

Christmas cousins!

Okra. Magazine Visits Stillwater Farm!

We have another exciting feature from this Fall to share with you! The folks at okra. reached out awhile back and asked if they could come visit the farm and chat. I absolutely LOVE their magazine. They fully embody their tagline #realsouthernculture.. Come as you are, if you will. Our shoot wasn’t overly styled and our conversation was casual and authentic. If you’re a Sean Of The South fan I think you’ll love their content as much as I do! This was a fun one for sure!

Here are some snapshots from the article. I'll add an online link if they put the story on their website!

DEAR DARLA... Halloween 2018!

Happy Halloween from our very own Little Rascal!

"You only meet your once in a lifetime friends... once in a lifetime."

"Quick! What's the number for 911?"

"Alfalfa, this is a side of you I've never seen before!"

"Actually, I've always had a rather extensive vocabulary, not to mention a phenomenal grasp of grammar and syntax. I simply choose not to employ them"

"I'm usually a lover, not a fighter, but in your case I'm willing to make an exception!"

"I'm not ashamed of you, Darla. I'm proud of you.. I just don't want anyone to see you!"

"we've got a dollar, we've got a dollar, we've got a dollar hey hey hey hey"

-Then the clouds opened up and God said, "I hate you, Alfalfa!"-

"Is that a cowlick, or are you just happy to see me?!"

DEAR DARLA,

I HATE YOUR STINKING GUTS.

YOU MAKE ME VOMIT.

YOU'RE THE SCUM BETWEEN MY TOES!

LOVE,

ALFALFA

YOU ARE SO BEAUTIFULLLL (HICCUP) TO MEEE
