Growing up European , we ate and lived the lifestyle of the old country . My children grew up on stuffed cabbage and pierogi dinners on a regular basis . For us , It's nothing new , we've been doing it for years and there is nothing wrong with it .
While people flock to see different countries outside of America , Emily and I have been more interested in exploring the U.S. There is so much to see here , where does one begin ?
I am happy to see a lot of families with the same idea . It seems that people have taken their families on more road trips now , than in the past . Nothing appeals to me more than jumping into an RV and just driving wherever the road leads us .
Since my truck is quite old ( a '98 ) , we don't take too many road trips outside of Illinois in fear of breaking down completely . I need to preserve what few years I have with this old baby of mine . So when I heard of Starved Rock , I was excited with the prospect of taking Emily there right here in our very own state .
I wanted the trip to be a surprise , an adventure for her birthday month . I've planned and planned for months , weighing all the pros and cons in my head on whether this could even be possible . Every time I thought that we could go , something came up preventing this long awaited trip .
Would this trip ever happen ?
Have a Blessed day everyone .
