God's changes and blessings!

Howdy Followers! 

God has really blessed us with some changes in our lives recently that we want to share with y'all!! As you all know I have been blessed to work at The Stand and it has been a great opportunity!! I have made some amazing friends that have become family and it has been a blessing to have been able to serve them!! So thank you to my boss, Stephan Du Toit and to all who have made this experience a fabulous one but sad to leave! 

But, recently I got the opportunity to become an Assistant Wedding Coordinator at Villa Di Felicita in Tyler, TX!! It was truly something that God has placed in my lap and was all in God's timing!! I have ALWAYS wanted to do this and so blessed for every different job that has prepared me for this moment and it's still so exciting how much more I get to learn!! So with that being said...Mack and I ARE STILL being blessed and able to take our trip it will just be Postponed until July 14th!! Whoop!!

So July 14th is the final date of our trip ;) We still have not been graced with our rooftop tent..so timing has really been on our side even though all of this was not planned. 

Mack has also been very busy in his job, TopDrive Communications and has been going to West Virginia and around Texas lately! It is so exciting to see how far he has come since he first started this business in 2011 and how much it has grown to today! Mack is so smart and I'm lucky to have an adventurous and hard working husband like him!! 

Stay tuned in for next week...when our rooftop tent DOES hopefully arrive and the exciting videos and pictures of our set up come ALIVE! 


Thanks for all the continued prayers and support,

Mack and Lauren McGowen

Delayed...

Hey Followers!
So our expected departure date of the 15th will be delayed a week 1/2 or so. Our amazing rooftop tent just got to Oregon so hopefully we will be gone by the 25th!


But Mack is all mapped out and I of course still need to get all of our stops organized in a folder with dates, open/close times, food stops, etc.

But thank you to everyone for your continued prayers and suggestions! It is going to be an exciting trip!! Stay tuned for route info, pictures and more!!

An estimated 10 more days until departure!!
