    And you New Yorkers are hysterical!! Idaho girl here and I can tell you from experience that log cabins are awesome! DH and I actually went camping (without the kids) for our 7th wedding anniversary. It was so much fun!

    I have to agree! The looks on Joanie & Chuck were hilarious. lol  I'm not a fan of camping, but I definitely understand the appeal.  I should clarify that I'm not a fan of camping overnight - I like to go out there for the day & sleep in a bed in a hotel or at home at night.

    I always wanted to get married to a wonderful man & have kids.  It took longer to happen than I wish it would have, but it happened in Gods time.  I really couldn't be happier with how it all turned out so far. :)

    I did not really dream of a really specific life as a kid...  so I guess so!  I left the options open for myself. :) 

    I wanted to be a teacher, and I did that...  I am a SAHM now, but I still teach religious education.  And I teach my own kids, naturally! :) 

    I wanted to be a mom, I wanted to be married, I wanted to have a house... we've done all these things!  I wanted to be involved in my kids' lives and educations, and we're doing that, too.

    So yeah, I think things are going the way I had hoped!

    I have no regrets. Not one.
