Redneck- sometimes disparaging : a white member of the Southern rural laboring class
Gypsy: to live or roam like a Gypsy
(from Merriam-Webster.com)
Redneck?? Check. All four of us, Keith, myself (Rebecca), Sara, and Levi, were born in Natchez, Mississippi. Keith and I have spent most of our lives in the south, and we are trying to raise our kids with the same values we were taught: work hard, love others, and trust God.
Gyspy?? Check. Let's do the math... Over the last 5 years we have lived in 3 different states, 4 houses, 1 apartment, 1 condo, and too many hotel rooms to count. Sometimes we even have two different homes at once and we just travel between the two.
Now we wouldn't trade those experiences and invaluable friendships made for anything, though it would be nice to settle down some day. But the reason for this blog is to let our friends and family follow us on our newest adventure...wait for it...Scotland! Land of kilts, bagpipes, lots of rain and fog, and Nessie. We are so excited!
And as we wait for our visas to be approved, we are in a packing frenzy. Under normal moving circumstances, we are pros. We can pack up a house in no time at all. But this time it's different. Everything we own can't go, so what do we take with us and what gets left behind??
Anyway, I will keep all of you interested followers posted on our many (mis)adventures. Stay tuned...

Sounds like quite an adventure - I look forward to keeping up with your travels!
