June 25 – July 3, 2019 We spent a week on Tybee Island with our immediate family on the Horneck side. The Ross’s drove to Atlanta, Vicki flew with the Jewett girls, and we flew from Colorado. The house we rented was just a few blocks from the beach and about a mile from […]

Made it to Breckenridge by 11pm Wednesday Slow relaxing morning Walked around town and saw new house built on Greg and Carroll’s old property. Bloody Mary’s with a […]
October 11-14, 2018 Our trip to the Sawtooths was amazing for so many reasons. First of all, neither of us had ever heard of the Sawtooths until about a year ago. A climber/photographer I follow on Instragram posted a photo from there and I couldn’t believe this spectacular place existed within driving distance from Brian’s […]
It’s been 8 years since we’ve lived in the USA, and much longer than that since either of us has lived on the west coast near our family. Two years in Mexico, four in Brazil, and two in Bulgaria. What an amazing time it’s been. Back in 2010, we started this whole international teaching thing […]

My first trip without Avery! Brian and I have done a lot of traveling in the past two years and it’s all been with Avery. While I am used to and comfortable traveling with Avery, there is a sense of freedom and less stress traveling alone. No stroller to worry about or diapers to change. […]
May 23-27: This trip had been planned for a while. It’s a place we had heard about from past ACS friends. We needed a long enough weekend to do it since it’s a 6-hour dive. This was the perfect time. Brian, Avery, and I left on Wednesday afternoon and drove to Melnik, just north of […]
May 18-21: It’s not often that Brian and I visit a place more than once and to visit a place three times is very unusual. This past weekend we made our third trip to Brussels. It was a short stay since our main focus was Liege for the Beer Lovers Marathon. Avery and took the […]
May 10-13: This trip was not about sightseeing. It was about being in a beautiful place and spending quality time with our close friends who we worked with in Rio de Janeiro. This reunion consisted of the current European sector of the group: Mike and Ellie Bowe, Brian Hurst, and us. It had been around […]
