Good luck at going more often!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14851412026289085327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3697144516795736807.post-78759010937348779752013-07-11T14:33:44.337-05:002013-07-11T14:33:44.337-05:00I believe in taking vacations - even if it is just...I believe in taking vacations - even if it is just for a few days, I feel like every family needs some time away. Growing up my family always made time to get away for a little bit, which meant finding someone to do chores and usually staying with family members along the way because farming in the 80s wasn't too profitable... I want to continue that tradition with my family and we hope to make a couple night trip at the end of the summer with our kids. We just need to find a date where hog chores will be the easiest for someone else to do and the date needs to be before we are getting prepared for harvest! Glad you enjoyed your vacation!Valhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15680253490735705479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3697144516795736807.post-44511095468766595382013-07-11T14:31:27.976-05:002013-07-11T14:31:27.976-05:00Glad you were able to get away and enjoy it.

We are skipping out on the whole vacation thing this year for the exact reasons you listed and I miss it even though we never took extravagant vacations. It's always just a trip to the water park for a couple days, but it's a vacation and we are together. Growing up, I lived on a dairy farm and we NEVER took a vacation. When my husband and I were dating he we went to Minnesota for a wedding and I was so excited because I had never been out of the state.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17149294851736916344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3697144516795736807.post-1337505571881360162013-07-11T13:19:19.519-05:002013-07-11T13:19:19.519-05:00As my best friend and I were stepping out of the o...As my best friend and I were stepping out of the ocean in January after our first SNUBA dive, we agreed that if you could bottle that feeling you'd be billionaire. I love living in the Midwest, where people are united by shared hardships and so compassionate and hard working, but it's important not to go too long without putting your feet in the ocean.It's Just Mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14861746771429126606noreply@blogger.com
