Inspiration: the quality or state of being inspired

I was inspired to start this family blog because my friend, Mariah, started one herself. I liked the idea so much that I just had to use it. I decided on the title The Flint's in "SPUD"-ville, because that's where we're at.
We love it here in "SPUD"-ville; the river, the ponds, the animals, the people, the very frequent movie nights, and even the 40 minute drive to civilization. Ok, so maybe I exaggerated the drive to civilization just a little; it's actually 15 minutes to 'civilization' in the town of Buhl, Idaho... but it's about 40 minutes to where we buy everything in Twin Falls.
This is pretty much where our family began... well except for the 3 months that Jesse and I went to scout camp after we got married; and excluding the fact that we were married in Utah. Other than those very significant facts, this is where we began and will continue to exist for a number of years.
No one really knows how long they will stay in one place, so we might as well live as though this is where we will be forever. Meaning, love every moment, appreciate the beauty and the laughter, meet your neighbors, and make the most out of where you are. Go "SPUD"-ville!!!
