The Best and Worst Parts of Travel! 9 Crazy Moments You Won’t Believe {Part 1}

If you've been a PUSHER for a while, you know that we like traveling. We like to create lasting memories with our kids as they become young adults and move away from home.

But international travel can be hectic. Many things can and do go wrong even with the best of plans.

On our most recent trip to Italy, we had a nightmare experience trying to board a flight.

Just imagine being told in the most casual manner that Eddie and I would not be allowed to board our flight because our passports were due to expire in 82 days.

We had to let our girls travel on their own and link up with our friends as we tried looking for a solution….

Tune in to hear of our crazy experience and the important lessons you can take from it.
