November marks a very special time for us. 

It will be 4 years that we started our journey of travel on November 25th, 2012.  I cannot believe that 4 years have already passed, I would have never expected in my wildest dreams 4 years ago that living and traveling around the world would turn into our life's purpose, but it truly has. 

We are true believers that things do happen for a reason and it is in the hardest times that we find who we really are and what we can become.  Although, our departure from San Diego 4 years ago was bitter sweet, it was the best thing that has ever happened to us and we are grateful for being challenged.

 Nov. 28th we will be celebrating our 9 year wedding anniversary and couldn't be more excited.  I have found my best friend, business partner, husband and traveling partner in Brian and am so proud to add another great year to our life calendar!

Well, they always say "They Grow So Fast", and now I believe it.  Hanalei is becoming such a special girl.   She started Kindergarted and is learning to read and write. 

She has a huge heart and always thinks about what she can do for others.  Our Shirt for Shirt Program has been a wonderful learning experience for her too, she is able to see the smiles on families and children's faces when we give them an UNSTOPPABLE FAMILY T-shirt and giving is becoming part of who she is.

We will be celebrating her Birthday this year in the snow at her request.  She will be 6 in April, and she wants to be in the snow, so it looks like we will be moving in January to a snowy spot before we head back out of the country again.

Until then, I am enjoying as much sand as possible!!
