About Us

My photo
The title for our blog came from the saying "thinking outside the box", which means to think differently, unconventionally or from a new perspective. "Enjoy your choices and enjoy what you do. Never let a day go by without being thankful for the fact that you get to be here in the first place." Hopefully this blog will help family and friends to stay a little closer to us even though were thousands of miles apart; as well as to share in our trials, daily life adventures and traveling experiences.

I've Missed You Old Friend

Some might think it's silly. It's not like we even have a fancy one or anything either but the one thing I missed terrible while we lived in Holland..........A BATHTUB!!

It's been a while....I've sure missed you!! There is nothing like a good soak in the tub.....maybe even with a glass of white wine. After almost 3 years Ella can actually take a bath. When she was an infant size (which wasn't for long) she had a special tub. At a very early age she was introduced to the shower and really never had a bath other than our trip to Rome and one visit home to the United States.

For most people in the United States the thought of a tub as a luxury item might seem a bit silly. Most all homes and apartments come with at least a shower/tub. During our travels around Europe and the home we rented, it was obvious that tubs are not as common as you would think.  Due to space, showers were seen a lot more.

One more reason to add to my "I'm so glad to back" list!
