Our Very First 25 Days Around the World! (2016)

Think back to the year 2016.... It was a long time ago now... but Rebekah was sitting and telling me about all the places she wanted to see. The food she would eat.

Rebekah was in the year of doing things! (Like she always is!) She decided she wanted to create her own traditions that would one day be passed on to our children. To cut a long story very short we came up with this idea and did a lot of planning. Every year it seems to get bigger and bigger.


Anyway this year we had it all planned and the first year went pretty smooth.


Sadly we don't have many records of the very first one unlike future years.
