Here's the introduction to my founding Sim, Grace Ford and her family in the country town of Henford-on-Bagley who live on a hobby farm called, 'GRACEFUL RANCH"

THE STORY OF A COUNTRY GIRL

Grace was adopted as a young girl by two loving parents who lived in a small farming community that was about a 30-minute drive to the nearest big city.   She was a shy little girl and had a hard time making friends in school but over the years developed close friendships with her cousins and close family friends.  As they say, it’s not the quantity of friends that count but the quality of them.

Throughout the years her family had a variety of pets including cats, dogs and horses.  Grace loved animals from an early age and before her adoption could be found playing with a German Shepherd who lived in her early childhood neighborhood.  Over the years Grace’s pets became her refuge from being made fun of in school between that and spending time in the barn taking care of the family’s horses, doing the barn chores and taking riding lessons.  Now that she has grown up and has her own family and hobby farm, Grace hopes to adopt a horse soon.

Shortly after    graduating from high school and attending some college,  Grace decided to follow her dream of having a hobby farm in the country where she could raise chickens, pets and other farm animals including a horse.  One day while gong one drive in the country with her parents they came across the charming town of Henford-on-Bagley and fell in love with area and saved up her money to buy a large lot that was perfect for her ‘Hobby Farm’.   Before he passed away, Grace’s father, who was a carpenter, built her home based somewhat on the house she grew up in but modified to meet the needs of her future family.   

Shortly after moving in, Grace decided to become a gardener so w she could work from home and on the job when needed.   Due to Grace’s cheerful and generous ways, she found out that making friends wasn’t so hard after all and quickly made close friends with her neighbor, Alex Moyer and others who stopped by to say ‘Hello’.   It didn’t take long for Grace to meet her future soulmate, Manual Aguiar who lived in a neighboring town who asked her out on a date after seeing her profile on the local dating website and as they say the rest is history.  It wasn’t long before Grace & Manuel were married, and she became Mrs. Grace Aguilar.  They now have two lovely little girls, Robin who is now a toddler and their newborn, Charlee.
