Indiana Dreaming ...Again
Several times a year I get the bug to go (move) to Indiana! I start looking at Realtor.com dreaming of a small farm or maybe a little cottage on the lake or how about a cute place right on main street. I envision the littles running barefoot through the grass and playing with their Old Order German friends. It's such a pure way of life. OR at least in my mind it is. We usually head to the grandparents farm around mid July and stay a few days. I even love the drive to Indiana. As we get closer and closer I get the butterflies. The only other time I've had the butterflies and still do sometimes is when I met Lambert. SO... Lambert and Indiana have the same affect on me. I often wonder if we actually lived there if the romance would go away. I think not. Like I said Lambert still gives me butterflies 25 years later. (we met when I was 12... you do the math)My Dad says, "just do it... sell everything, quit work and move". I so wish it was that easy. Instead I pray. If that's where God would have us, then it will happen. I've even looked at colleges up north for the kiddos. Maybe someday... Oh maybe someday. Until then... I'll be Indiana Dreaming
Thanks to these two for making our Indiana summer experiences all that I dream of!! Can't wait to come again!
Wow....you show Indiana proud! It is the greatest place to live......can't imagine living anywhere else.....it has been almost 8yrs for us and I still get butterflies over this place, I am so in love! You guys are always welcome here at anytime, when ever you can get away.
Oh NOW I'M IN LOVE WITH INDIANA!! I could almost smell the fresh outdoor air! I simply love the pic of Hoot in that tree swing!!!! Such a beautiful place to capture such warm memories! Thank you for sharing!
Welcome to Hoot's Momma. I am a SAHM, FINALLY! I have a wonderful husband, a beautiful boy and we recently adopted our sweet daughter from China. We love our family, friends and the lord above all. I once read this from a fellow blogger. I am a big sinner with a bigger savior. I think the saying fits me just perfect. I love all things vintage and southern. I enjoy photography, scouring antique shops, garage sales (in the midwest) and flea markets for new treasure. Baking yummies for my family and then enjoying them together. I love to praise and worship the Lord through music. I love classics all things classic, Marvin Gay, I'm a little soulful and some say I'm an old soul... I think so... II would have loved to have grown up in the 50's. The hair, the dress, the freedom to play outdoors without fear. love all of these things!!
What a beautiful place....I want to move there too. Great pics as always
