So - my husband is gone a lot. It sucks. Sadly, I am also used to it. That is ok, though - we work with what we are given, and thankful for what we have. In the meantime, we don't let the grass grow, we don't sit and complain that he's gone (well, ok, maybe a little bit), we don't hide out in the basement, avoiding the world. We get out and see the world! I am good with distraction, whether it's intentional or not, and for me these days, traveling is a great distraction to 1/4 of my little family, and 1/2 my heart being missing.
So, for the end of June, our trip we took was to Garmisch-Partenkirchen. We only went for a couple of days, and I bored my kids to death with hikes and nature, but, well that is me, I reluctantly admit to being a little bit Granola.
Don't they look tortured. . .
Wait - you mean not everyone elses kids try to make themselves look like Master Yoda in almost EVERY family picture? SERIOUSLY?
Yes. Don't we all look miserable? (NOT) While we may be missing an integral piece, we are still moving forward, and still making the most of what we have. To waste the opportunities we have to travel and see the world while we are living abroad would be a sin.
As always- PLEASE, leave a comment, share a thought, or just follow along with us on our journey!
