There's a saying that goes something like, "You can take a girl out of the country, but you can't take the Country out of a girl."
Roger and I both grew up in more rural areas than San Jose, my hometown being quite a bit more rural. While I wouldn't describe myself as "Country" per se, I was definitely raised with a different kind of lifestyle than what I've become accustomed to in my adult years. And not to say I totally miss everything about my roots, but I do long for a lot of the things I grew up with and want my children to experience some of that kind of culture as well as the luxuries and conveniences of a bustling city.
So I'm proud to say that from these photos, you'd never know we live in one of the largest cities in California. {even if they do only represent a small percentage of our lives}.
