12 kids, 400 sq ft, 7+ years on the road...
While we were still parked at Plowman campground, we did a few day trips into the Dallas/Fort Worth area. A few days before Christmas we went to Cabela’s and picked up our last few stocking stuffers. The kids liked all of the mounts… Cabela’s had several different ‘scenes’ full of animals… and then a large […]
Being so close to the Dallas-Fort Worth area, we couldn’t pass up the opportunity to visit the… We girls spent most of our time in the Victorian dresses exhibit… Some of the dresses were so beautiful! I’m posting a few pictures for y’all back home – heard tell yu’re havin a Civil War ball in […]
Christmas lights down here take on a different flavor than back home… And just for the record, I was really NOT wishing for a white Christmas, the kids were; they spent Christmas eve morning singing “I’m Dreaming of a White Christmas” – Randy Travis style. And in the afternoon… We all spent the day inside […]
After not caring at all for our first glimpse of Texas via El Paso, we wondered what we would find as we left Carlsbad, NM. We came into TX through the west side into what is called the Panhandle Plains. We pulled into the Lake Colorado City state park fairly late in the evening to […]
Just a quick post to share with y’all how we spent the First Day of WINTER! hehehe… We’re all enjoying the balmy weather we found here in The Lone Star State. YeeHaw – we LOVE Texas! We have a great camping spot right under a couple of large pecan trees. The first day we were […]
You cannot visit southwestern New Mexico without a stop at Carlsbad Caverns National Park! The caverns were fantastic. They were similar to the Grand Canyon in the fact that pictures cannot do justice to the creation itself. The actual place is so much more magnificent than photos can convey! Since we have a National Parks […]
Good-bye Arizona! We loved our time in Arizona, especially the time that we were able to spend with Vaughn’s family. We decided that we needed to hit the road to see some more of the US, especially since we may be heading back to AZ in January. Hello N.M.! New Mexico was looking pretty green […]
On Dec. 2nd, our Hannah turned 18! I can’t believe that my baby girl is all grown up! She is such a blessing to us, and our family would be wanting without her! Hannah loves to take pictures, and is a huge help to me (and our scrapbooks) in that many times she captures a […]
After staying at Painted Rock Petroglyphs state park, we headed back towards Tucson. Since we had just spent two weeks at Picacho Peak s.p., and there weren’t any other state parks in the area, we decided to boondock on BLM. Boondocking is camping without hookups; you rely solely on (if you have an r.v.) the […]
Just a few minutes west of Tucson is this wonderful little museum – though I think that it is really more of a zoo. The Desert Museum is actually located in the Tucson Mountain Park, which borders Saguaro National Park West. At Saguaro N.P., I had asked about the museum, and they said that it […]
We are a fulltime RVing family of 10 (+ 4 more grown and flown) that have been on the road for over 6 years. Nature/creation lovers, Jr. Ranger aficionados, relaxed roadschoolers, and enthusiastic disaster relief volunteers, we are always on the lookout for a new adventure!
