we LOVE to travel

It's really not even up for discussion, in our family, we are passionate about food and traveling. Good thing even the kids agree. I'm a huge coupon-er. I rarely pay full price for anything. There are so many means of negotiating and saving these days, why would you pay full price? Every penny saved is a penny earned and those earned pennies pay for our travels. Pennies do come with limitations and that's why at this point in life all our travels are within driving distance. I always tease my husband that one day I'm going to load everyone into the RV and we're going to become Gypsies. He's never too thrilled with that idea (but I think it's growing on him) and the kids are all for it.

There's nothing like a little hike. Not only is it great exercise and time for family bonding, there are so many places close to us that it's a FREE activity to do anytime we have a few hours to spare.

The beach is our family's happy place, so if you can't find us at home...check the beach!!

Every picture is interpreted by your perspective, so are life's adventures.

Sometimes adventure starts right in your back yard. If you can't find it, make it!!

Keep memories alive. Relive your childhood. Teach through actions. Life isn't about how much you can take away from it, rather how much you gave to it. Love God always and live life to the fullest.
