Welcome to our family travel blog! Once again, "three in pink" are on the move ~ this time to someplace warm, sunny and tropical! Join us as we travel across the ocean, and settle into our home away from home for the next year. Laugh with us as we find our place in a foreign country. And pray for us during our time away from friends and family. We are excited (and a little nervous) to begin this adventure, but know the experience will strengthen our family and create lifelong memories. We are faithful that God will take care of us as we journey to another part of the world! We can't wait to see all that He has planned for our family as we begin the next chapter of our lives...

You can read about our first adventure living abroad HERE.

Girls just wanna have fun...

It's always a little challenging when Andy is out of town, and it's especially difficult managing without him in a foreign country.  So while Andy was away on business this week the girls and I decided to fill our days with "girlie" things that we wouldn't normally do when he is home.

Since we live only minutes away from some of the biggest names in fashion, I thought it might be fun to visit a few stores that I've only read about in magazines.  As a mother of three daughters, isn't it my duty to enlighten them to the world of fashion and glamor?

Even though we could only afford to window shop, it was really interesting to see the unique styles of the different designers.  Hannah, Mags & I were appalled at the outrageous prices, and (as predicted) Mia left the first store wondering why she couldn't have the $6000 Chanel tote that we looked at.

We started talking about all of the things you could do with $6000 and Hannah decided she might purchase a nice piece of furniture and also give some of the money to church.  Maggie decided she would give it all to charity, and Mia would spend all $6000 on the pretty Chanel tote that she had her eye on.  Should I be worried?

The highlight of the day was when the ladies at Prada let Mia hold a $12,000 purse and admire herself in the mirror.  I'm not sure if I've ever seen her so happy.  Yeah, I definitely should be worried. :)

Here are a few pictures we took along the way:










We never even made it into this shop because they only let a few customers in at a time!
You actually had to wait in line to be escorted in.


She looks way to comfortable in front of that sign. :)



Me and my fashion-savvy girl!


Ending the day at the Hard Rock Cafe'... much more our style!
