Where We’ve Been & Where We’re Going
I would say that this year has already proved a good one as far as travel is concerned. Just in the last few months we've already visited 5 other states outside of Tennessee. We've saw the Chattahoochee River in Georgia, experienced Mardi Gras and explored the Mobile Bay of Alabama, took a quick detour to [...]
I’d rather be in Munich…
You know that feeling when the big trip you've been anticipating for months gets canceled the day before you were suppose to leave? Yeah, that's where we're at right now. We've been getting ready to leave for Germany to spend this next week in the winter wonders of Munich. But then the news came that [...]
Cheers and Fears on 39
And so today I begin the last year of my 30's! And I'm happy to say that finally the leaves are starting to change and it got cool enough to pull out a sweater. So I would say this day is off to a pretty good start! It's been a little surreal for me today [...]
To Israel…with a sigh of relief
Months ago I announced that I was going to Israel for a study abroad....since then there has been a question of if we would be able to go or not. So we quietly kept providing the documents requested from our professor and preparing as best we could for the amazing opportunity that it would be [...]
One Year In Tennessee
It's so hard to believe that we've now been in Tennessee for one year. When we moved from Florida up here, the craziness of Covid was in full swing which made the moving process more difficult than we expected. And then we arrived, excited to be in Tennessee, but immediately crestfallen at our apartment that [...]
100 days till Israel…and all the places till then
The next few months are already filling up with places to go and things to do. Because it's one of the best times of year to travel before summer comes, we've had a lot of requests to go and visit people and have people come and visit us. Our calendar is filling up and I [...]
Be a Tourist in Your Own State
Here's the sad truth...sometimes in our excitement and desire to see the rest of the world, we often overlook or take for granted the incredible place that we are right now. Because we see our city every day we have lost sight of the things and places that make that city so unique. When I [...]
This Summer I am Going to….
ISRAEL!!! That's right friends, this summer I have the amazing opportunity to experience the Holy Land. I am beyond excited (and also a little nervous if I'm being honest) about getting to go to Israel. Currently I am working on my masters degree at Middle Tennessee State University and decided to apply for their study [...]
When Flying With An Infant Or A Toddler
I was flying out of Kansas City a few years ago and in front of me in the security line was a woman with a baby in a stroller and two young children. The woman had a carry on suitcase plus 2 large bags on her shoulder with stuff overflowing from it and her arms [...]
