I'm an Iowa Girl ♥



I’m an Iowa girl.
I love the cornfields as far as the eye can see.
Back country roads and romantic nights.
Light nights under the stars away from the city lights when you can see a million lights in the Heavens.
Walks on the sand beside the little lake.
Hobo Fest, Watermelon Days, Tulip Time, America’s Favorite State Fair.
Country Music Blasting.
Getting caught by the cops for being at a park.
Fifreflies that sparkle in the wheat fields after dark.
Breathless sunsets and sunrises.
Photoshoots in a silo.
Crazy country people with their shotguns, “Are you gonna jump the train?”
The road to insanity.
Dirt roads are the best, though.
Cow tipping.
Snowy winters—sub-zero temperature.
Thunderstorms that shake the whole house.
Sledding then hot chocolate.
Snow Days.
Heat Days.
Tractors on city streets.
Small Towns, friendly people.
Watching dreams grow.
Summer Love, Romance, and Heartbreak.
Faith and the crazy journey that led me to God.
Family and friends.
It’s my life—and I love it.
Just like I’d always imagined.
Only Better.
I love Iowa. (:
