The short answer is yes, absolutely!! When we told people we were planning on spending 3 weeks in Europe as a family of 6 with 4 kids under 5 and nothing but 2 backpacks we got a lot of *unsolicited & mostly unhelpful* advice! Everyone was quick to tell us that we were crazy, butContinue reading “Can You Backpack Through Europe With Small Kids?”

June 2020 Wrap Up
I’m a week late, but we were finally busy again in July! Crazy busy actually. Everything seemed to start back up all at once! The twins are still taking music lessons weekly. During their lessons the little girls either stay and wait with me or they go to work with Andrew depending on what he’sContinue reading “June 2020 Wrap Up”
How We Are Team No Electronics With 4 Kids
I know what you’re thinking, that’s her kid in the picture watching tv, but she said they don’t do electronics? Keep reading down to my international flights section 😉 Before I had kids there were a lot of things I swore I would never do as a parent.

May 2020 Wrap Up
Finally in May we started to see some return to normalcy. Not a perfect normal, but at least able to leave the house again! On May 1st we finally had our first ultrasound to see baby #5.

Destin Florida May 2020
As soon as the farm got a big rain and Florida reopened their beaches and restaurants, we were outta here! Even though it was just a quick 4 day trip, it was a much needed break from being cooped up in the house for 2 months! Especially with our travel obsessed family! Several years agoContinue reading “Destin Florida May 2020”

March 2020 Wrap Up
With March behind us now, I have to say it was one of the craziest months I can remember. It started out normal enough, but with COVID-19 hitting the US mid month it definitely took a different turn. March 1st started out with Andrew’s 31st birthday! It was a Sunday so we went to churchContinue reading “March 2020 Wrap Up”
Walt Disney World February 2020
Considering we’ve been confined to our homes for over a week now due to COVID-19 and social distancing you would think I would be caught up on my travel posts by now, but I am not, of course. This is the last post in our winter travel adventures though so I wasn’t too far behind!Continue reading “Walt Disney World February 2020”
Disneyland Paris
It’s no secret that we are huge Disney fans. We visit Walt Disney World 5+ times a year and enjoy every second of it! So one would think that it would be a no brainer for us to visit Disneyland Paris while in town, but that was not our plan! We only had 5 daysContinue reading “Disneyland Paris”
