    Fun Facts for Inauguration Day

    January 20, 2017 /

      Every four years, a president is sworn into office by taking the Presidential oath. While the oath itself is quite short, the inauguration events for modern presidents have become huge, celebratory exhibitions.

        Wanderlust has a cure. We are two moms with three kids each, animals, carpools, sports, volunteering, etc…you know the drill. We are happy to do it all and even enjoy it (most of the time). We are also fortunate enough to have husbands that have encouraged us to embrace our travel dreams! Traveling in January may seem odd to some, but for us, it is ideal because it’s affordable, there are less tourist and it’s off-season for our kids sports.     The Winter Winds called this year and sent us to Madrid, Spain. Visiting Madrid wasn’t at the top of our travel list, but we had the…
