Budget Bear: Backpack of Memories

We’ve started to get a number of RSVP’s since our invitations went out earlier this month. Unfortunately, there will be one couple that will not be able to attend the wedding because… they are TRAVLING THE WORLD!!!!

Mommy and Daddy’s friends Lena and Aaron are a married couple who left their jobs and life in Chicago to pursue their dream of traveling the world. The couple started their journey in Iceland and are making their way through Europe (currently in Turkey per their blog). They will soon after take on Asian and South America before returning home in early 2013!

You can follow their journey on their blog, facebook or even twitter.

We are so sad that they will be missing the festivities but so excited and happy for them. It is very cool to see the photos of the places they visit, food they try and places they stay!
