These are our stories, or as Brené Brown would say, they are also the stories we tell ourselves. Our hope is that our reader(s) (hopefully we have some) can identify with some of the stories we share and pick up the phone to call a friend and plan a much needed road trip! Maybe, some of you will remember the time that you had to help your sister get her SPANX on! The next few years will see us traveling to destinations we only have dreamed of, engaging in conversations with people from all over the world, and forming friendships that can transcend age, ethnicity, and miles (4,993 to be exact)!
