Did You Miss Me?

Okay, so it's been soooooooo long I'm sure most people have stopped checking my blog. But I thought I would post a few pictures from my trip to Ohio. My entire family was home and it was wonderful to see them! We went to the lake for a few days and the waterskiing was amazing. Seriously, the lake was like the most perfect sheet of glass you've ever seen. My favorite was waking up early and going skiing with only the hard-core skiers in my family (my dad, brother and little sister Rach). There's something magical about that coveted first run...before things seem to have woken up and you're seeing everything in its natural, unadulterated state. I imagine that is what heaven will be like.

I love Ohio, not that I want to move back or anything, but that place will always pull slightly on my heartstrings. And I was home during one of my favorite times. Our house is out in the country surrounded by corn and soy bean fields. I love sitting out on our porch swing in the summer when the air just seems to linger on your skin as the sun goes down. The faint warm breeze carries with it the scent of ripenening corn and sweet wildflowers and I can just sit for hours watching the fireflies, listening to the crickets and talking with my family. I'm telling you...heaven.
