Where cell phones don't work...

And a cabin sits in the woods miles away from any paved roads....
And this strip of land provides the perfect place to spot deer and turkeys in the distance.
Where trees grow huge and you have to venture in the woods to stumble upon this natural piece of art...
And snakes like to stare at you from their hiding holes....(ok so this I could have done without:)
Where your transportation always looks like you've been muddin'
and stories are better heard when sitting in the teller's lap.
Where little boys stop and play in the dirt....
and your breath nearly catches in your throat from simple beauty like this.
When rain water has no place to go and you pray your car can make it to the store and back (it was a close one, D:)
Where boys wrestle, run, yell, get sweaty and dirty....
and little girls prove that princesses can make it in the wild too.
Where Caroline enjoys a view from her mommy's back...
and Zeke sneaks some squeezes from Rachel...his good girl buddy.
Where kids are free to explore and roam and imagine...
and fill their bellies with no end of yummy sweets. You got it...Oreos, little debbies, gummies, popcorn, popsicles,
Where waterfalls refresh (yes, the kids went swimming in their clothes)
and girls tote guns. (Looking good, Lulu:)

The guys looking like Christmas morning after they shot this pig. Yes, it was harvested for meat and eaten. Fun times! The kids loved it!

Our other friends had to leave early before we took this photo so they are absent. Spring Break was a break indeed. A break from schedules, diets, phones, computers, and work. Don't get me wrong. We worked. Just not at a job. We worked at having fun. We worked at making memories. We worked to make it fun and enjoyable.

God blessed our time and our efforts. He kept us safe and brought us home.
May He be praised for His many blessings in our lives.

This place and these people just skim the surface of His blessings in my life.
