Traveling was important to my parents and we were very fortunate to have seen some incredible places. When I married Mark, we certainly made up for lost time! Life with my family is fun and these are some of the reasons why! This album does not include ALL the places we've been to but it certainly covers a lot of them! These pictures are in part 2 of this category and are not in any chronological order.
