Why "Toes in the Water"?

Life gives us many "Toes in the Water" moments, it is simply up to us to recognize and appreciate them. These moments can only be explained by being truly content with your surroundings and it is the type of moment where you look around and realize this is what life is worth living for. Joe and I live to celebrate these moments with each other and those we love and we plan on filling up our lifetime with many, many Toes in the Water.

HOME HOME ON THE RANGE

Well, here we are. Six weeks later. Can't say I am the same person. I am happy to be home but sad at the same time. The thrill of traveling and not knowing what the day will bring is rather invigorating. It makes you feel like you are really living life. Yes, there is a different sense of reality because you don't necessarily have to worry about going to work or doing the dishes but there is a different sense of responsibility involved. You are consumed only with your basic needs. Where to eat, where to sleep and in Europe's case-where the hell are you going to be able to relieve yourself because there are NO PUBLIC toilets!!! It is very frustrating! HA, at least for me!

It was, brilliant. We met loads of fun people, saw loads of amazing things and def are better more rounded people because of the experiences we had. I can't wait to post all the pictures. I think total we took around 2500-3000 pictures. Don't worry, I won't make you look at all of them!


Now the next journey begins. Driving home, Evan's wedding as well as Brandon and Laura's in Montana, summer in Michigan, where to go next and WEDDING PLANNING! WAHOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!! And no, I will not be a bridezilla, sorry to disapoint.

I am just excited to marry my best friend!! Stay tuned for more details and for more posts on different cities we visited. For now, we are safe and home and exhausted. I slept for 12 hours last night and didn't wake up until 1PM today!!! I obviously needed it. Can't wait to catch up with all of our friends and most of all, I cannot wait for the next adventure. For now the backpack is hung up-but it won't collect too much dust!

Love from SLC,

Grace and Joe
