Country living: A blessing and a curse, but mostly a blessing

Without a doubt, I am a city girl at heart. This can make living in rural Southwest Virginia a challenge, at times. I drive down to Charlotte, NC to do all of my shopping and I attend a university in a somewhat lively town. As I spend my last summer at home after my second year of college, I'm trying to appreciate the country setting that I live in for what it truly is - undoubtedly beautiful.

  We live on a little plateau and have a field in our front yard - my friends always come over for bonfires and tell me the field reminds them of a Taylor Swift music video.

And of course I love spending time with my pup, Jack :)

I just love this little (big) guy so much :)
