About Me

Hey folks!

My name is Sierra Holmes and I am the one behind the keyboard writing this blog. I decided to start this blog as a place to put my writing because hiding it in my journals just doesn't feel right, but I soon realized that the biggest challenge was finding a name for it. Everything I thought of sounded stupid until I stumbled upon The Backyard. To me, the backyard is five acres of beautiful green grass, a garden shed, the playhouse, and the place that I spent the majority of my childhood. In The Backyard anything was possible; Goblins were real along with wizards and fairies, sword fights were a daily occurrence, and the world was just a more magical place. I grew up truly believing in the impossible because of the adventures I went on in The Backyard. But these adventures would have been meaningless (or never even happened)  if it were not for my sister and the neighbor boys. With Sydney, Arlo, and Wyatt by my side no adventure was out of reach. So, this blog is meant to share the magic of The Backyard with everyone. Have fun reading.
