 Tina and Chris adopted two boys 4 years ago Elijah and Rylee. They’re on a journey as a new family to grow and challenge themselves by traveling around the US and road schooling full-time on a renovated school bus. They love to say “We Live on a Bus.” 
 
If you have kids and you’ve dreamed of doing a sabbatical or a year long trip with your kids while they’re a certain age, but schooling always stops that dream in your tracks — this is the episode for you.
