Has anyone ever heard of Hazel Green, WI? Anyone? Ok that's what I thought! Well imagine the smallest town you have ever been inÐ'...well my town is smaller. Living in Hazel Green was great, but I have to admit I was a little sheltered.

My family of six lives on a 160 acre farm right outside of Hazel Green. It is gorgeous, we have land spreading out everywhere with several entrances because of tractors.
