The Week Before Our Departure

By -

Alot has happened in the last few days in Dunwoody, Jacksonville, and soon ft. Lauderdale. There has been tears for saying goodbye to family and friends and a million hugs. When we left Dunwoody, we did not go straight to Paris. We went to South Georgia to say bye to our grandpa (that we call LoLo). We visited him for a day and then we went to my Nana’s house and we are staying her for 5 days. Also, our cousins Wesley and Lila came to our Nana’s house so we could see them there too. They stayed her for about 2 and a half days. We had lots of fun with them and we had some amazing cooked meals from my Nana that included shrimp, crawfish, corn, rice, and a lot more. We also had bacon almost every morning. We also had leftover fish and we mixed it with rice. at my Nana’s house we also saw my grandfathers sister, LoLa. We stayed there for about an hour, and then we went swimming. It was so much fun.

I have been missing my friends and texting them all day. Let me name them, Lauren, Kaley, Anna k., Sydney, Cora (her family bought my house), Emmy, Mady, Cara, Tatum, and many, many, more. Soon we are going to go to ft. Lauderdale and see more people. I love adventure but I also love my friends and family. So keep in touch!! I will send you pictures, texts, and emails too. FaceTime me every day!! Miss you so much!!

(P.S. I had an infection on my top right teeth so I had to get to teeth pulled!)

A little PAINFUL!

Are you sure thats a tooth?!

In 2017, our family of five (3 kids ages 9, 8 and 6 at the time) embarked on a global adventure for one year. My husband and I decided to home school our children and take them on a journey of world exploration -- exposing them to various cultures, people, food, religions and everything else in between. Grateful for this privilege and our amazing experience. Exploring Venice, Italy on the waterways Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.  -- Mark Twain I had planned the first three months of our trip to Europe when we were still in the States, hitting the countries of France, Spain, Portugal, Italy and Croatia.

Day 1: We arrive in New York! Wow, are we so tired. We just came off a plane flight from Denver and had to wake up at 4:30 to make the shuttle ride to the airport. It is 10:00 AM right now because of time change so we are going to get some lunch because we are SO hungry (and tired).  So we check into our hotel room which is barely big enough to fit us and take a quick shower. Then we go exploring! We walk to a restaurant that my mom had planned before, which happened to be about 45 minutes away, but New York is fun to explore so we of course just walk.  My mom told us along the walk that we were going to this restaurant called “Stardust.” So apparently, people that are good actors and singers that wanted to get a job on Broadway come to this place to be waiters. They sing songs, they also have lots of entertainment, and awesome milkshakes. We ordered and then watched all the waiters sing. It was incredible! They even had confetti! The down side, we had to wait for abou...
