I have the heart of an adventurer, and luckily I married Chris who has the same spirit for exploring!

With summer on its way, I am planning for more time in the car as a family, hitting the open road and seeing all that our beautiful state of Texas and the surrounding area have to offer.

There are many reasons why families should plan a road trip for this summer. First and foremost, it’s a fantastic way to bond and create lasting memories with your loved ones. We love the freedom of the open road and the adventures that come with it. Whether you’re exploring new cities, visiting national parks, or just taking a scenic drive, there’s something special about experiencing it all together as a family.

Road trips also give us options as parents. Whether you’re looking for a quick weekend getaway or a longer vacation, there’s a road trip for every schedule and budget.

If you’re a fan of camping, a road trip is the perfect opportunity to pack up the tent and sleeping bags and explore some of the country’s best campgrounds.

We’ve even traveled with an airstream trailer before, making for a more comfortable and convenient camping experience. Now our airstream is parked on Chris’s family land, so any road trips that we take this summer will be from the comfort of our own car!

Road trips aren’t just for summer vacation – they can also be a fun and educational way to travel during the school year. You can plan your trip around historical landmarks, national monuments, or even college visits for your older kiddos.
