Small Town USA

One of the best parts about moving for us was being able to be in a small town and community. The kind of place "where everybody knows your name..." and pretty much everywhere you go you see a familiar face.

We both grew up in small towns and greatly enjoyed it. We thought moving back to AB's hometown would be a great place for us and our future kids.

But it is also so nice to not be in the hustle & bustle of life. Seems like everyone lives a much slower pace of life.

And I love it!

I can honestly tell you I do not miss SA one bit. I definitely do not miss the traffic or people. I thought I might miss all the places to eat - because we have very few eating establishments here & on Sunday pretty much your only option is Dairy Queen but I don't. We eat at home much more often these days which I also love.

Right now it is harvest time so AB has been working a lot and it has been HOT! I have also passed more tractors on the roads than cars these days. I am hoping to go out to the fields one day & ride the combine with AB and get some pictures of this year's harvest.

So far small town USA has been wonderful to us! This evening I took some photos for Honey B. and snapped a few for here while standing in the front yard.

Here is our small town USA bliss...
