We have 2 Wagoner Graduates in 2020, even though the kids are 2 1/2 years apart in age and a 2-year gap in school! Knowing this at the beginning of the year was very exciting. We were looking forward to all of the traditions and events that coincided with graduation. Then everything changed…
Today is our first taste of freedom and a glimpse of what the “new normal” will be for a while.
Each Autumn our consulting and blogging takes a little siesta, so Alan and I take full advantage of this time to work on projects and improve our Spanish. This time we tried experiential learning Spanish mixed with some traditional classroom time. Yep, we are taking the slow road to fluency, but at least we are still on that road! To top it all off, we know we are better than we were last year!

Cooking classes, food tours, and food tastings have now become a tradition for our family travel experiences. We have had the most fun learning, cooking and eating new foods all around the world. This is a great and fun way to bring some culture into your trip and have everyone try new things. We’ve found these to be the perfect family travel activities where ever we go.
