Well, hey there! Long time no see! We haven't posted for months because we're happily settled back in our hometown in Tennessee - our RV is sold and we're no longer traveling the country. However, this weekend while making a quick trip down to Orlando to get one final use out of our Disney annual … Continue reading Seaside Sprint and Beignet Dash – Disney Fun Runs!

Disney 5K Part 2: The Race
[Editor's Note: I wrote this right after our 5K race on Jan. 10 - and then never went back to edit it and add photos!

Disney 5K Part 1: The Expo

I always loved the hot air balloon events that happened in my hometown as part of the Fourth of July festivities, and I've always dreamed of going on a hot air balloon … Continue reading Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta – Monday
The Arches Behind the Name

Six Unexpected Social Benefits of Roadschooling
[Editor's Note: I originally wrote this a year ago for a friend of a friend who asked me to be the "roadschool voice" for a new moms' blog she was starting. That blog ended up not going live, and I kind of forgot about this article I had written. I finally thought I'd go ahead … Continue reading Six Unexpected Social Benefits of Roadschooling
Our Summer Mixtape
We have had an absolutely wonderful summer! We took a break from traveling in the RV so we could spend some time at home reconnecting with our friends and church family. The kids also participated in some camps and joined a swim team, plus we made a couple short trips to visit grandparents. Our goal … Continue reading Our Summer Mixtape
