I love the small-town life! There is something about all the ways that people come together to celebrate, honor, and support each other. The sound of every emergency vehicle available to send kids off to competitions, walking into a familiar café with friends, or just gathering around the grill, all represent the greatness of the small town. We have a lot of pride in our country, Faith in the Lord, and genuine care for each other. There is nothing that can match the American flag going up and the Star-Spangled Banner played during Friday night lights!
