Last Monday we welcomed our second child into our family.
We are now the parents of two handsome little boys. Jude
who is 2 1/2 and now Maxwell. Becoming a mother has lead
me to think about where I live them and why I love why I love
it.
As a teenager girl I often thought of my hometown as a less
interesting place to live than say a busy big city. I whined
about lack of good shopping and few music venues. I was
going to move to a big city someday and I would no longer
be held back by this small town. I did move away. I moved
to Salt Lake City and 4 months later I was driving home - car
packed full - with fear in my eyes. I couldn't handle the big
city life, I couldn't live so far from my family. I had a small
town heart whether I wanted to admit it or not.
Saint George is growing and isn't so small anymore, but
somehow that small town feel has stayed. I love that about our
town. I feel safe here. I feel good about raising my babies here.
Why do we choose to live where we do? For me it's family first
and Saint George couldn't be a more charming, beautiful, safe
place to raise a family. I love my Dixie Land!
