Farm to Product


     The feeling of growing your own ingredients and raising your own animals, then putting that into a product is an amazing feeling. Knowing how it was grown, what was put into it, and where it came from, makes it that much better. 

     Milking the goats every morning and evening, then taking that and using it in my lotions and soaps is a special feeling. Starting basically from scratch, leading then to an end product has always brought so much satisfaction to me. Really with anything I do. I love taking all God's creations on this earth, making something with them and reusing them in another way. 


     In my products I try and keep everything as natural and in the most pure state as possible. Making it more healthy for your body, skin and health.  

          Goat's milk lotion is one of my newest products. Grapeseed, avocado, sweet almond and coconut oils, along with fresh milk  from our goats will all be found in the lotion. All which have amazing benefits for the skin! Only pure essential oils are used to give the scent.


            Specialty lotions, such as "Herbal Infused," are next on my list to make. These will be made the same way, only infusing specific herbs in the oils that will be for healing, relaxation, etc. Lip balms will also be coming soon!   

   I hope to continually be able to grow more and more of the ingredients I use in my products. Keeping it from "Farm to Product" even more so.  

            Also, please leave reviews on your previous Rainy Day Farm/Studio purchases and let everyone know what you think of our products!!!

Living for Today


     What if today was your last day?...How would you change? What would you do differently?

          Tomorrow is never promised. Too often we get so caught up in always living for the future. Wondering what tomorrow, a week, a month, or even years from now will hold.  Not ever thinking about today, the moment we are living in right now. But what if tomorrow never comes? 

          Life is short. Things change quickly. You are then questioning why something could have ever happened, or turned out to be that way?  Wishing then, you could change it. Go back. Or have done something, or said something differently. 

            Once someone is gone, the first thing everyone says is, "I wish I could spend one more day with them." Or regrets are running through your mind of things you wish you would have said, how you would have spent more time with them, or what you wish you could change. But it's all gone. Because today will never come again. It's so easy to say though, I'll do it tomorrow. Tomorrow will be the day I will change. Or treat that person differently. Or tell that person how grateful or thankful I am for them. But what if they aren't here tomorrow? What if you aren't here tomorrow? You are left with too many regrets, I wishes, and wanting one more day to change it all...



           It's so crazy sometimes how it feels as though our whole life is always revolving around our future. Always wondering what the next day, month, week, or year will bring. With each day leading up to that just going by. Not living in the moment, or for this day today, but always for tomorrow. All those special little moments of each and everyday are not taken in, but just skipped over thinking about tomorrow. A year goes by, you then wish you could change it all to go back. 

      Our emotions most of the time are even centered around the future. Rarely are they in the present. Always thinking about the good or bad things that could happen. Leaving us happy, sad, depressed, angry, etc. But what if none of that ever even happened?  Learning to take life as it comes and leave all the worrying behind, will lead to a so much more happier and healthy life.

          So why not start living for today? The moment you are in now. And leaving the future in God's hands. Enjoying every special little moment, with no regrets later. Making the most out of everyday, knowing tomorrow is never promised. Not only for you, but also for everyone else around you. Live each day as if it's your last....
