Hello everyone.
We wanted to just reach out and thank everyone for the kind words of support. We are all doing ok and just taking life one day at a time.
I also wanted to express how lucky we feel to have built such a great community of people on this channel. Yes, we are a small channel but it grows more every day and the quality of humans we have gotten as subscribers makes us so proud.
We will get back to our normal posting schedule next week. Coming up we have some informational videos as well as some fun adventures we have planned. We will be going to Romania for a week to FINALLY bring our cats back home with us, we miss them and can’t wait to have our family whole again!
We will always keep you all updated in our videos as to how our journey is developing!
Big hugs.

Hey everyone!
It seems as though YouTube has really pushed a lot of our new content out there and unexpectedly we now have a bigger audience than we imagined that we would have at this point.
We want to thank you all for your support and attention in this crazy transition we are going through. From the USA to Romania and now to our rental in Valencia, Spain! Our road has been full of surprises but life so far has not thrown anything at us that we haven't been able to handle and for that we are so grateful.
If there is anything any of you would like to see, feel free to let us know. We are an open book and I have nothing but time on my hands these days! We love sharing our journey with you and we are always open to suggestions.
Feel free to follow on Facebook as well here is the link.

I made an Instagram for our page but it got shut down apparently for violating some sort of guidelines. I have no idea why 🤷♂️. We will try again soon.
Thanks friends!
This is a picture from my run this morning. I just thought I would share. 🤣

Our first week in Spain was a success! Things have been moving fast between settling in, getting the kids adjusted, and exploring our new city, it’s been a whirlwind. Because of that, staying on our “new video every Thursday” schedule has been a little tricky.
But we promise this... no matter how crazy life gets, we’ll always keep you updated and share what’s happening along the way.
Once the dust settles, we’re planning to dive deeper into the story behind our move. The WHY and HOW of leaving everything behind to start fresh across the world. 🌍
This move definitely isn’t for the faint of heart, but every day it’s becoming clearer that it was the best decision we’ve ever made.
Thank you to every single one of you that has subscribed and taken the time to watch our family through our insane life change. We appreciate the company.
Check out our newest video this week 😁

We took a beautiful walk in the forest today. It was great to get out and clear our heads. Big things are on the way and things are looking up. Keep an eye out for our next episode this Thursday.
As always, thank you for watching and following along. Share us with your friends! See you all soon 😎.
