Nashville, Tennessee

Nashville was a new spot for everyone in the family except for me. I had gone with a group of ladies a couple of years before, so I knew what touristy things I wanted Zach and the kids to see. However, I had gone with adult friends who did quite a bit of bar hoppingContinue reading “Nashville, Tennessee”

Destin/Seaside Florida

Have you ever seen a friend’s pictures on facebook where they are sunbathing on a gorgeous Florida white sand beach, crystal clear water, and a magnificent sunset? I always saw those Seaside (a popular Florida destination) photos with jealousy. When I looked up the cost of going in the past, it was never something weContinue reading “Destin/Seaside Florida”

What is Roadschooling? And why do we do it?

First, let’s address the elephant in the room, “What is Roadschooling?” Roadschooling is when people take their families on the road and teach from the things they see or experience along the way. For someone who had never even homeschooled before, I was a little worried. When my oldest was in school, I was theContinue reading “What is Roadschooling? And why do we do it?”

How we Plan Out the Next Adventure(s) – Part IV – Guest Writer: The RV Husband

So this will be my last week for a while as Sarah will be returning next week. Our final addition arrived and she needed a quick maternity leave with less focus as she had other things to celebrate 😊.

How we Plan Out the Next Adventure(s) – Part III – Guest Writer: The RV Husband

In Part II, I wanted to give a little perspective of what the road schedule looked like as someone who works remotely 5 days per week. For us, the pandemic played out perfectly for us to get on the road. Not only did my work schedule adjust to 5 days remote, but my MBA programContinue reading “How we Plan Out the Next Adventure(s) – Part III – Guest Writer: The RV Husband”

How we Plan Out the Next Adventure(s) – Part II – Guest Writer: The RV Husband

In my first guest appearance (Part I) I discussed my Three Pillars that help define our travel routes when I am planning our trip from Point A to Point Z. My 1st pillar was starting with the end in mind and determining where we wanted to end up in the timeframe that I was planning.Continue reading “How we Plan Out the Next Adventure(s) – Part II – Guest Writer: The RV Husband”

How We Plan Out The Next Adventure(s) – Part I – Guest Writer: The RV Husband

Brake lights and signals working, check. Back-Up camera is on, check. Chocks are up, check. Parking brake is off, check. WAAAAIIITT!!! Where are we going?!?!? Some of the most exciting trip planning comes in the form of ‘Where are we going?’, however it can also be one of the greatest areas of stress. Pulling aContinue reading “How We Plan Out The Next Adventure(s) – Part I – Guest Writer: The RV Husband”

When People Think You Are Crazy

Zach and I had made our plan to sell our first home and transition to RV living, but we had not told ANYONE yet (except our kids – big mistake!). We had been interviewing realtors and deciding when would be the best time to sell our home. Well…we had plans one night to go outContinue reading “When People Think You Are Crazy”

Traveling With Our Dog – George

George is a two-year-old miniature golden retriever and FULL of energy. He loves playing with the kids, being with us as much as possible and carrying around his chew toys. When we first sold our house and moved into the apartment during the transition from house to RV, George had a horrible time with theContinue reading “Traveling With Our Dog – George”

Sarah’s ‘Pre-Made’ Bundt Cinnamon Rolls

If I am being honest here, we get pre-made cinnamon rolls at LEAST once a week. You know, the kind that comes in a can. You would think I was an expert on baking these glorious rolls, but I still like to experiment and make the meal more “fun” for the kids. So, I haveContinue reading “Sarah’s ‘Pre-Made’ Bundt Cinnamon Rolls”
