Mali Mish is All Grown Up!

A lot can happen in one year, and with us, this last year has certainly been a very eventful one. Exactly a year ago today, we brought our 25 ft. Airstream International CCD “Ocean Breeze” Edition home from the dealership for the very first time.

A year ago, Ava was not yet 2 years old, has not had a hair cut and was still wearing diapers. One thing that IS the same however, is that she still is a fan of Dora the Explorer. Here she is bringing Dora along to see Mali Mish for the first time with ‘backpack’ on her back.

We have done a good amount of exploring in the ol’ mish in this last year. From Lake Casitas to San Mateo State Park in San Clemente. From KOA Lake Isabella to The Shady Dell in Bisbee, Arizona. We have been priming this birthday girl for a big trip that has yet to come.

One thing that has yet to have happened is for us to go full timing in her. Our intention from day one was to do just that. Many circumstances, good and bad, have cause us to delay the trip. The main reason, which falls under the good category, has to do with this little one:

This is a photo montage of the first 30 days of our new baby girl Mila. A new addition to our clan already full of girls. Which is now a total of 4 girls strong if you count Yoda the cat. Which we do.

With Mali Mish being 1 year old and Mila having almost 2 months under her belt in this world, we think she is almost ready to take on an extended trip around this great country of ours. Having just gotten back from a brief trip to the California desert, we think it won’t be long before we pack up much of our belongings and head east for awhile.

Happy Birthday Mali Mish and stay tuned for a series of posts from Mila’s very first trip in the little mouse.

over and out,
