Our last day at home...

Our last Saturday at home before our Maiden Voyage...
We spent some time at Bear Creek Park with Grammy Sue.



Sierra so proud that this year she is big enough to climb this big girl" slide all by herself.
Weeeeeeeeeeee
This is how Sierra thinks you "walk a dog!"
Aayla is becoming a little monkey herself :)
We enjoyed a nice walk, seeing the new Spring blooms and playing at the playground despite my not feeling well, and despite the wind as even though the sun was shinning...it was chilly!!!

 From here we went home to finish packing as on Sunday we left for our Maiden Voyage, all over the States and Canada.

After selling our business last fall, we made the choice that it was now or never!  We wanted to take a full year but with Sierra starting school in the fall; we need to be home in September for that so 4 1/2 months will just have to do! I will post here periodically along our journey when things come up but the main focus of the trip will be my other blog at:


Feel free to follow along to see where we are and what we are up to. I am sure that many adventures await us and I look forward to the fall with more crafty tutorials to come. Until then...

So long, farewell
Auf Wiedersehen, goodbye
Adieu, adieu
To you and you and you!
