For those of you who don't know, I grew up in the OC-the real OC that is. Otherwise known as Oak City. The best little town in all the world. It truly is the celestial kingdom (right mom?!) I am so grateful that I was able to be raised in such a wonderful place. I wish that I could raise my own kids there. They are in pure heaven when we go to my mom and dad's house.
There are only about 600-800 residents, we have one church building, one small store (which my kids call "the treat store"), numerous farms, an awesome canyon (when it's not on fire or being flooded).
I had a comment on my last post about living in Mayberry (Delta), and you know what, there is nothing wrong with Mayberry, I personally quite enjoy it. I love the laid back feeling and the wonderful spirit that come from small towns like that (why do you think we ended up living in Santaquin).
If you ever have the chance to take your kids to Oak City-do it because they will love it!
Mom & Dad we can't wait to come down again.

I agree, I love small towns. Now, if they'd stop ripping up all the trees....
Silly little Oak City...or Oak Shi##y...HeHe...
You moved to Santaquin to be by me, duh... I do love small towns too. My Mom grew up in Annabella, Utah where there was not even a stop sign at Center and Main. Just a Yield sign which was funny because there was never anyone there to Yield to. I want to go to Oak City with you again. My kids had a blast and Maddy still talks about all the fun stuff we did.
