New Home and Life


Life happens so quickly. Especially when its a new way of living. Its been a couple months since I've updated and so much has happened. I'm sure it'll take me a few days to update everything, but i'll give it a try.

 After we brought our new home back to Texas, we parked in on this great piece of property for a couple months. I came across an ad on Craigslist about an RV site just outside of town (San Antonio). I called and we went out and met the owners and saw the site. We loved it right away and were able to move out there just a few days later. It was 5 acres and the owners lived there, along with having 5 RV sites that they rented out.They had 2 horses, 2 calves, about 15 dogs and just as many cats. They let the kids run around, without many restrictions. It was a great place for us to start our new adventure of living in a much smaller space. We really enjoyed our time there, but knew it was quite temporary. 




Towards the end of January we knew it was about time to start our life on the road. We had been dreaming, praying, planning, learning and preparing for almost 2 years. Everything was coming together. Doors were opening. The road was calling. Well it actually felt more like it was screaming!! When it feels like that you still have a choice. Go running in the opposite direction, sticking fingers in the ears, screaming "I'm not listening!" OR jump feet first into what ever lay ahead, knowing that you may fall flat on your face but still having the faith and determination to try. We chose option two.
