52 Weeks of Happiness :: Week 32

We took a weekend family trip to my Father-in-law's plantation

called "The Windmill Plantation" down in good ol' South Georgia.

My parents joined us for the first time 

and it was so great to all be together.

It's the funnest and most beautiful place on earth.

A place where the morning light

breaks over the trees 

and the ground shimmers and glitters

in the warm sun.

Where a big breakfast is prepared

in an old country kitchen

and you sit down as a family to eat.

Where Spanish Moss hangs in the trees

and sways lazily in the wind,

making the world around you look dreamy.

Where I can strap on my cowgirl boots

and play outside in the dirt with my boys.

 

Where you take slow walks down a country road,

drawing in the clay 

and searching for arrowheads dropped

by Native Americans long ago.

I feel so blessed to have such an amazing place

to spend time as a family.
