The Journey Begins

Thanks for joining us! We are excited to start our journey. Really two at once…a journey of capturing our memories in this blog and a journey to the east coast. As Nick and I began to plan our vacation I wanted a way to capture the memories with the boys and to be able to share it with family. Since I only know how to overload my schedule with too many things at once I figured what the heck, let’s figure this blog thing out less than a week before we leave! Here goes nothing…or hopefully a whole lot of something!!!

Emmitt just turned six a few days ago and Levi will be nine next month. I can hardly believe they will both be in school come August. Every summer since Levi was born we’ve been camping. We’ve gone as few as six times in a season and as many as a dozen. Sometimes it’s for a weekend and sometimes for just over a week. This will be our longest trip yet at two weeks and I’m so excited!

Southern Indiana is perfect for camping with so many places close by, but we have also taken the camper as far as Branson, MO; Orlando, FL and Northern MI. Friday we leave to head east, but that is all I’m going to say for now. You’ll have to wait for more details on our trip as it unfolds. This will be a shock to everyone who knows me, but other than reservations at our campsites, we literally do not have one other thing of this trip pre-planned. It will truly unfold for us along the way too!
