FAST FIVE Stephenie Kimener: Life is better in the country
Meet Stephenie Kimener of Long Mountain Meadows. She is a doting wife to Brian and mother to five wonderful children: Christopher, Timothy, Josephine, Benjamin and Gabriel. She is a self-proclaimed mediocre housewife who runs two businesses and homeschools her children. She prefers to be outside with her family and animals while neglecting her household duties, which she admits her husband is way better at doing anyways. She and her husband feel as though they have found their own little slice of heaven at the base of Long Mountain where the valley opens up to several waterways and meadows. She loves her highland cows, horses, dogs and various other farm animals. She gives God all the glory for the many blessings in her life.
