Free...




So incredibly perfect.... thanks for sharing kel!

So we live out in our old van
Travel all across this land
Me and you

And we'll end up hand in hand
Somewhere down on the sand
Just me and you

Just as free
Free as we'll ever be
Just as free
Free as we'll ever be

We'll drive until the city lights
Dissolve into a country sky
Just me and you

Lay underneath the harvest moon
And do all the things that lovers do
Just me and you

Just as free
Free as we'll ever be
Just as free
Free as we'll ever be
And ever…. be

We were born before the wind
Also younger than the sun
And the bonnie boat was won as we sailed into the mystic
Hark, now hear the sailors cry
Ya smell the sea and ya feel the sky
Let your soul and spirit fly into the mystic

When a fog horn blows I'll be coming home
Yah when a fog horn blows I want to feel it
Don't have to fear it and I want to rock your gypsy soul
Just like way back in the days of old
And together we will flow into the mystic

No we don't have a lot of money
No we don't have a lot of money
No we don't have a lot of money
No we don't have a lot of money
No we don't have a lot of money
No we don't have a lot of money
No we don't have a lot of money
All we need is love

We're free as we'll ever be
Just as free
Free as we'll ever be

So we live out in our old van
Travel all across this land
Me and you

Joy


"Children are the hands by which we take hold of Heaven."
- Henry Ward Beecher

"The child must know that he is a miracle - that since the beginning
of the world there hasn't been, and until the end of the world there
will not be, another child like him."
- Pablo Casals

I feel so honored to be a part of these kids' lives.... it is such a blessing to see how each one is growing and learning at their own stage! Such a beautiful gift they are. There is such an innocence and beauty, makes my heart melt!

Shed Time!

SHED: (in case you haven't heard the plan) We are building this on Jordan's parents property, THANK YOU SCOTT AND KELLIE, so we can put all of our house stuff in it. Mostly kitchen toys and Jordan's art stuff.... We will put everything in here except for 3 or 4 suitcases and then we are going to go TRAVEL for a while! Our first destination is Kauai- July 13.

Within the first day of being home we jumped straight in! Thank goodness for Scott and his plan.. otherwise it would have taken much much longer to get this sucka started!!!
Just supervising!! ;-) Men love that....
Day One: The floor and three walls were framed and set!
I love being outside with the boys, hitting a few nails! Makes me feel like I can accomplish things!
I will have to get you a picture of this palm nailer that came with our nail gun.... IT IS THE MOST AMAZING THING IN THE WORLD! I want one with a portable air compressor backpack, then I could just walk around neighborhoods nailing stuff! hey, a girl can dream right!
Day Two: The men were in "THE ZONE"! Very serious faces, grunting to communicate, sweating..... you know guy stuff! They got so much accomplished and it looks like a little tiny house. Jordan and I are debating whether or not we should just live in it!
My husband is SO HOT when he is holding power tools!

Minimize!

Day One of Packing 1st Apartment in Tucson:

“Have nothing in your houses that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful.”
William Morris.
It's been really good to go through things and realize how much EXTRA we really did acquire over the last year. Less is more! Everything we want must fit in an 8x10 shed.

Our Ultimate goal in all of this: “The secret of happiness, you see, is not found in seeking more, but in developing the capacity to enjoy less.” - Socrates. Feeling pretty successful on day one. Its a good start. Can't believe we are really moving in less than 5 days!

Adventure Time!

I'm retiring my old blog for a while with a dream of this new one! The more cities we live in and the more wonderful friends we make I have realized there needs to be a spot to recognize them all. A place to re create our adventures for everyone to read. Starting now we are beginning THE real adventure! Our bills are payed off and now its time to see what this world has to offer us! The world is our playground, we made that pact two years ago when we reunited. So join the blog, follow us on our adventures and be a part of the ride! We do really wish that we could bring everyone along. We have met some amazing people in just the past two years that have became family and every time we head off to the next place its hard to say goodbye! So buckle up and hang on for the ride! Who knows what will come next...
