This was our final week on the road for this part of our adventures and for 2024! Can you believe it? We certainly can’t. In a race to get back in time for Christmas—and to escape the freezing temperatures (which came with its own set of challenges)—we powered through a week of relentless travel days,…

Turkeys and Tennessee: A Chilly Thanksgiving Adventure
This year, we enjoyed a wonderful Thanksgiving in Cincinnati, Ohio, where the weather made sure to remind us that autumn was well and truly over.

A Month in DC: Staying Put, Squirrels, and Snowy Adventures

Wheel-y Big Adventures: The Horse, The Goat and The Turkey.
Our journey from New England to New York started as it usually does—tidying, sorting, and piling the girls into the car. We enjoyed scenic views and a smooth crossing over the Cape Cod Canal.

From Rhymes to Rings: This Years Adventures in England
This post takes us not on another U.S. adventure, but on an adventure to the wonderful isle of Great Britain. Our time there flew by, leaving us with plenty of blog post-worthy moments, so I thought I’d add a new twist to this post as you’ll shortly see below. While in England, we fell even…

The Kindness of Strangers – A Thank You Post – Part 1
Our travels so far have been quite the adventure as you would have read, but we couldn’t have gotten this far without the help of family, friends and the kindness of strangers. Trusting in the kindness of strangers has been an important lesson in our travels, so much so that we want to ensure that…

Garbage Plates and Family Fun: Fishy Fun In New York
As I sit here trying to write this post, I wanted to note that this is a perfect example of the “not so glamorous” parts of traveling with little ones. I’m squished on the hard hotel room floor in our cozy “family” room, next to Maggie’s crib and Tilly’s giant bed, as Maggie protests bedtime…
