About



Hello there! I'm Carrie Dotson, or Country Girl at Heart.  I'm a wife and mother of two.  Welcome to my neck of the woods, or in my case, my neck of the plains.

I grew up on a farm in the armpit of Oklahoma.  I remember dreaming when I was growing up about where I would go and what I would do.  I was certain that I would NOT live on a farm or have anything to do with agriculture.  I had dreams of living in a big city, far, far away.

After moving away from the family farm, I found myself longing for it.  I longed for the wide open spaces, being able to see for miles, and the smell.  I truly understood the phrase that you can take the girl out of the country, but you can't take the country out of the girl.

I am going to share a little slice of our adventures and misadventures here.

I love to cook, but don't consider myself great.  Trust me, I have had many failures in the kitchen.  When I do find a great recipe, I promise to share it. 

Being a stay at home mom, my mind sometimes wanders.  That is until I am hit with a toy or interrupted by one of my children or one of their silly cartoon songs.  In order to keep my sanity, I decided to give this whole blog thing a whirl.

I hope you enjoy reading about our sometimes crazy lives as much as I enjoy writing about them.
Thanks for stopping by,
Carrie
