Cuenca, Ecuador, December 11th, 2015

The place I may never visit again, but would never trade in the time we spent here.  Living in the city was the experience I’ll cherish.  Living in the house made the trip.  It was 100+ years old with authentic colors and construction which I’ll remember forever.  Creaking wood floors, slanted stairs and beautiful doors…

Quito (November 3rd, 2015)

Oh, Quito.  What can I say about it?  High up, dirty, crowded, rainy and probably our most “unfavorite” place we’ve visited.  With that being said, we made the best of it, and it once again showed us how incredibly lucky we are living in the US, with all of our blessings.

Morocco (October 8th, 2015)

We escaped Europe for awhile to jump the Med, and land in Africa.  It was incredible to have such a change in scenery, culture and people with such a short trip.  The kids really loved it, which makes mom and dad happy!

Torre del Mar

I was very apprehensive about this city and the house all the boys had chosen. It was far into the hills and remote and I was afraid of the isolation. In the end though, it was a nice change from the busy cities we had come from. I enjoyed seeing the boys being able to…

Torre del Mar, Spain, October 19th, 2015

I would have never gone to Torre del Mar because I never knew it existed.  It was so pretty there.  We could see the countryside from the home we were renting.  When we ran outside there was a dog that barked at us a lot and sometimes it chased us!  Th is why I like…

Torre del Mar, Spain, October 19th, 2015

Torre del Mar was awesome!  It was so open.  There was a lot of farm land around us.  We also had a trampoline and a pool.  We had a beautiful look out from our house.  There was a small nice town near our house.  I wish we could have stayed longer!

Torre del Mar, Spain, October 19th, 2015

Marbella might have been the best location, but this was the best house.  Out of my 2nd floor office I had mountains to the north and Mediterranean to the south.  We were perched up on top of a mountain, nice and isolated, just the way I like it.  We were surrounded by fruit farms, and…

Marbella

Marbella was by far my favorite city. The house we lived in was in a gated community that had its own pool, tennis courts, basketball court and soccer field. The grounds of the community were covered in gorgeous flowers that made the entire place smell like a garden.  This community was where we met our…

Malaga

When we got to Malaga, I was still a little unsure of how I was ever going to survive this trip. The culture shock had set in and the realization that everything and everyone I knew and loved were now a long plane ride away and hours behind in time zones.  However, Matt kept me…

Marbella, Spain, September 30th, 2015

In Marbella we went jet skiing, it was cool!  We have met two cats, Hot and Spicy, Cold and Bland (their names).  The waves are huge!  They’re like 9 feet!  We have a pool like 10 to 20 yards away from where we live.  We have a lot of pizza!  We saw a big sand…
