We did a little thing and traveled part of the Pacific Northwest. I love to plan our trips, but I have to admit that I was a bit overwhelmed when it came to planning this trip. There is SO much to see and do in this area! I quickly realized that we would see some …

Southern Trip: Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Florida
We wanted to finish our southern tour of the United States with a trip that started in New Orleans, traveled along the Gulf Coast, and ended in Destin, FL. After all, if you are close to the beautiful, white sandy beaches of Destin, you have to go. My first tip from this trip is: If …
Viva Las Vegas
Our tour of the 50 states continued with a trip to Las Vegas, Nevada. My husband had a work trip at the end of April and asked if we’d like to join him. It had been awhile since we’d traveled out of state, and we were ready for a change of scenery so we jumped …

This was one of the first state tour trips we decided to take. We knew these states offered rich history mixed with beautiful beaches. …

Family adventure is HARD, but worth it!
We have all been there. You see the photos that someone shares of their latest family adventure, and they look so happy and full of life standing by the ocean’s water or on the ski slopes. You think, “Awe, we should do something like that.” But, then reality sets in and you recall that you …
