[quote=Anonymous]We lived overseas in Embassy housing.  We saved so much money because we rented out our townhome while we were gone that we were able to put the money towards travelling.  We visited seven countries while we were there-- some more than once.

We lived in an apartment that was a decent size for our small family-- there are four of us and there were three bedrooms.  We had a shitty pool, sparse gym, and sad playroom, but we made the most of it and had a blast!  Best part were the relationships we made with other families.

Now we live in a house in the suburbs, just a block away from a great park and the elementary school that I'll someday walk my kids to.  Some of my BEST moments are in my backyard.  Today I sat in the grass painting the frame of a mirror I bought at a yard sale.  My four year old helped a little but mostly just laid in the grass and kept me company.  This year our vacation will be to beach where we'll stay at my in-law's condo and eat in almost every night.  Eventually, we'll be back to where we were a year ago financially, but in the meantime, I wouldn't trade my yard for a trip to France in a heartbeat![/quote]
