Dear Family and Friends,

Since we started this website to help everyone keep track of our crazy adventures, we thought we’d add our annual holiday letter too. Here you’ll find a quick recap of our year as well as our hopes for a wonderful holiday season for all of you!

2017 has been a wonderful year for us! We’ve visited Virginia, Tennessee, South Carolina, Georgia, and now Florida. In fact, with the exception of a 2-week break due to Hurricane Irma (and our 2-week vacation to Las Vegas), we’ve been traveling around Florida in our RV since June. Sean’s been busy working remotely, and I’ve been trying new things like a tree top aerial obstacle course, zip line, stand-up paddle board, and indoor skydiving. I did get most of my antics on video which you can see on our YouTube channel, Chickery’s Travels.

We plan to finish out the year at Patrick Air Force Base just south of Cocoa Beach. We’re excited that we’ll be able to spend Christmas with Sean’s parents who moved down to Florida this year. Also since I’ve really been struggling with missing our kids, I’m so happy that some of them will be visiting us here! Donovan, Alannie, Richie and Agata are all coming to see us over the holidays and we’re looking forward to showing them around! I also decorated my RV for Christmas and even have a full size tree!

Justin and Kayla moved to San Antonio this past summer. They are settling in nicely and really like it there. They only live about 10 minutes away from Donovan and Alannie. We plan to head to Texas after the first of the year and spend a few months near them.

Richie & Agata are still in Northern Virginia. Agata is on her final year of Physician Assistant school. She’ll be doing clinical rotations for the remainder of the program. We can hardly wait until their wedding in June! It will be such a great occasion to get all of the family together!
