It's a Small Town Life!: Dream

Dream

When roadblocks, locked gates, and unexpected turns sprout up along the path we've mapped out, we can quit on the spot and progress no further. Or we can build a new path and follow it in whatever direction our imagination takes us. For those who dream, the choice is simple.

Didn't expect to see this image here, it reminds me of my youth. I always wondered how people climbed the trees to put it there in the first place.

What lovely inspiration on how to keep focused! Moving obstacles to realizing one's dreams is the only way to achieve them. They certainly aren't going to fall in your lap now, are they?

Loved the tire swing pic! I want one. =D

Oh Wow! That quote describes our life. Wish you knew who wrote it.
The tireswings really tugs at my heart. Always had one for our boys and now for the grandkids.
Yes summers are extra busy for Moms. I remember feeling like a taxi driver. We had an old white station wagon my boys called the nerd mobile. What happened to the "Lazy days of summer"
Love your new header.
