Our forever home.
I’ve always been a nomad. I love to travel and explore. I’ve spent the majority of my adult life moving around from place to place, partially because I LOVE change but if I’m honest with myself the main reason I’ve moved around so much is because it has been a great distraction from the things…

Our forever home?
We move a lot. Everyone gives us a hard time for how many times we’ve uprooted our lives to hit the road in the RV or just bought a different house in a different part of Fort Worth. Truth be told for most of my adult life moving was a coping mechanism for me. I…

What’s next?
I was reading through this blog recently and I was struck but how much I used to share about what was happening in life. I knew no one would be reading it so I was less worried about what I shared and what anyone would think of me. You might think that I post less…

We bought an RV!!!
I wasn’t sure it was going to happen this year, but it has! We purchased a class C RV so we can travel during the summer, occasional weekends and whenever else Lil isn’t in school. We spent a great deal of time searching but we finally found the make/model that works best for us, the…

Adjusting to life off the road
It’s been four months since we said goodbye to our fifth wheel and moved into our new home in Texas. We’ve spent lots of our time getting the house furnished and settled, hanging out with family and adjusting to the biggest change in our life, Lil starting kindergarten. It has been quite an adjustment on…

We found our dream home!
In April of 2021 we sold everything we owned, including our home and went full time on the road in our fifth wheel. The experience has been everything I had hoped it would be. Our time together as a family and the memories we’ve made will stay with us forever. If you haven’t been following…

Stop 21 – Niagara Falls, NY
After our stay in Vermont it was time to make our way towards Niagara Falls, NY. I visited the falls about 15 years ago and was excited for Crys and Lil to be able to experience just how awe-inspiring they are. We found an RV park just a few miles from the Canadian border called…

Stop 19 – Kennebunkport, ME
There’s something about Maine that really draws me in. It’s not the most beautiful state, I think Vermont or Colorado takes that award, but the combination of the fishing gear, boats, lighthouses, rocky coastline makes it a place that’s very special to me. Even though Kennebunkport didn’t quite have the volume of activities we were…

Stop 18 – Eastham, MA
After leaving Mystic, CT we had an overnight stop in Richmond, Rhode Island which was a true hidden gem. We contemplated extending our stop there just so we could enjoy the lush trees, the giant playground and explore the cool general store they had onsite. They even had a restaurant that had wonderful fresh seafood.…
