Do you ever long to take a step back in time? This was the feeling we experienced as we drove onto Jekyll Island, Georgia. From the moment we glimpsed the Jekyll Island Club and Historic District and the striking natural beauty of the island, I knew we had found a very special place. The more I learned of the history of Jekyll Island, the more I knew we were not alone in our discovery. Teeming with interesting history, this island’s colorful background made for an enchanting visit.

How to Survive an International Flight with Kids
An international flight with kids is challenging. This is our first week back in the United States, and after two years of being away, it is an amazing feeling! This has been our most difficult move yet. Anything that could go wrong did go wrong.

The Road Trip Bag of Awesomeness
Hey y’all!
Every summer, we take a road trip. One of our favorite splurge locations? Disney World! While we can’t get enough of the mouse house, we are often forced to drive extremely long distances to get there.
Building a Road Trip Survival Kit
As this post is going live, my husband and I will be getting ready to pack up our PODS trailer and head off on our first big PCS journey (and by big, I mean 400 miles, so really, not so big, but big enough to require some prep). We’re making things a little more entertaining for ourselves by choosing to do a partial PPM (Personally Procured Move), since we’re apparently gluttons for punishment and enjoy lugging boxes every year or so. What that means is we’ll be driving the distance from Long Island up to his family in the Adirondacks to visit, then traversing the state of New York to get to Fort Drum.
