Our big family adventure for 2026 was a trip to France - Normany, Brittany, the Loire Valley and Paris. This trip has been a dream of mine for several years and I was finally able to convince Lee that we should go. While I'm starting to think that nothing will top our Alaska trip, we had a pretty incredible time on this trip. Over 14 days, we visited four different regions of France, saw countless historical monuments and churches, ate incredible food, and walked - a lot! Some of our favorite memories are below but if you want to see our entire trip, click here for our travel blog to see each and every adventure.
