Road trip recap & pictures...
I absolutely love to go home.
I don't do it near as often as I would like.
Being a mother of 3 little ones probably plays a factor in not making it there as often.
And the fact that it's 12 hours away.
I've been wanting to post this post "a trip recap" since last Tuesday night but life has been lived & the blog has sat still. My apologies! I wanted to be creative and clever in my post about the trip. I wanted to let y'all know that I had so much fun, that the trip was long, that the children {all of them} were well behaved, and that I didn't want to come home when it was time to leave. I also wanted to tell you that my parents have hummingbirds like south Alabama has gnats. That I have a wonderful mother who is a "good woman" like the plaque above her kitchen sink reads. And that the farm is truly one of my most favorite places on earth. But I've been so tired lately and when I've had a chance to blog... it's been late and all I can really think about doing is getting in bed.
I also wanted to tell you that the most memorable part of the road trip took place at none other than my favorite eating establishment: the DQ. We were in the heart of Amish country when we see a young man pull up in his tractor {thankfully I had my camera handy}. What I thought was just a young Amish gentleman rolling up to the DQ for a snack ended up being much more. Look at the pictures and see what else he had in "tow". I love the Amish for so many reasons: their faith, their talents, their convictions, their simple lives... but I'm still smiling about this one.
Once again, I'm ready for bed... so here's a link to our pictures from the weekend!
