Goodbye Florida

Today I carried the last box from our house and finally sold my car. Our full time journey really started on July 10th but we had access to our house until today. I was able to slowly move the last few things we needed to the fiver. Our journey feels more real now.



This is so emotional for me. I am saying goodbye to some amazing friends and neighbors. These past couple weeks have been so hectic and haven't had a chance to give as many hugs as I had wanted...I am going to miss everyone so much!  

We have lived in our house for almost 12 years. During that time we have met some amazing people. Our neighborhood is small and quiet, we have our typical Orlando trouble, but the people on our street are the kindest people anywhere. My homeschooling circle is filled with moms I trust for advice on how to raise and educate my kids. And I have some friends I call family scattered about town. I am taking so many memories with me but I am going to miss my chats with neighbors as I walk to the mailbox, watching my kids play outside while catching up with friends next door, lingering at the park or after history class just to vent about life, the library, Disney, my Publix...

So now I have no job, no house and no car. Time to suck it up and make some memories. I am excited to start this journey! My life is already more than I could have ever dreamed of. This journey gives my family an opportunity to see the country from a different perspective. I'm excited for what's to come! 

Next stop - Virginia Beach for Junior Olympics.
