Thank you! My big adventure is walking 20 minutes to the grocery store, doctor's office, or to the bus stop! I'm 72! Just have been retired from being a lunch lady for 7 months! Being a senior citizen is the greatest adventure!
You probably already know this, but when we hike and bike in Colorado and it’s super hot and no shade, COOLING towels are literally a life saver!! I can’t tell you how much of a difference they make. My favorite one is my 9-year olds “Artic rad wear”. So when it’s 95° out and we’re biking, we have them draped around our necks. We take a snack break, take helmets off, lay that across our heads and we’re refreshed to keep going. And then if you’re near a cold river/stream, or lake you can re-wet it. They make it possible for me to take my 9 year old on 5 mile rides to our local downtown and have lunch and go to $3 kids summer movies, where we chill off in A/C, and then visit the splash pad too! By the time the movie is over it’s happy hour time for Mom, while he plays in the water.
watching all your adventures at the end was so wonderful! I'm a 70 year old grandma in Minnesota who loves your channel. I raised my family in the redwood forest of CA and moved here 5 years ago to be near all 8 of my grands. I feed only 2 now but I was you in the 70's and 80's. Now my days are filled with grands, my chickens, my 1 acre garden and quilting. But somehow I'm addicted to your show. My absolute favorite shows are when you and your daughter do it together. Bless you all, BrendaLou in rural Jordan, Minnesota.
All the puppy content! 😍 I love that you’re sticking with the same topics we love in your videos (grocery hauls, pantry cooking, etc.) only now there’s a PUPPY. Much love to Speedy as well. I love it when he makes an appearance!
I live in MD an hour outside of DC. My husband and Mom and I are headed to cedar city UT to see some friends this summer for 15 days. Moab is planned for our first week! So excited!
We enjoy car trips and have started taking homemade muffins and yogurt for breakfast, cereal, milk, peanut butter, bananas and apples, and cooked taco meat, tortilla chips and cheese. Also microwave popcorn and homemade cookies. We take one small ice chest and one large tote (a laundry type tote). We just got back from an 8 day trip and we ate out a total of 3 times, because we wanted to. Soooo nice to have food we like available and not have to go out! We’re always tired in the evenings. Saves a ton also. Great video! Have learned so much from you Christine!
We recently returned from a 4 day wedding weekend. We opted for VRBO small home (took our epileptic dog with us). Dinners were covered 2 nights. I prepped breakfast sandwiches for the 3 mornings, took food for lunch, took drinks and snacks. Bottom line, we only spent money for gasoline and we had a great time and the food was delicious! What a perfect vacation for your active family!
ok. So first, i was rooting Hailey on while she was trying to get up those rocks. Then, to hear the pride in Dave's voice when she got it. Not gunna lie... i may have gotten a little teary eyed... your family is awesome. :) Thanks for sharing them with us!!
I love your grocery haul and your attitude about family vacations. Being together and making memories. The fact that you are so active is a bonus. Beautiful scenery!!
We did a staycation but we did walking, biking practicing and killed it at the local botanical gardens. I had my 4 year old walking 5km a day! I was so proud of him. I can’t wait for him to learn how to bike so he can ride with us! My 9 year old also killed it. I was proud of him too!
You totally inspire me to be more active with my kids. We have 6 kiddos from 10 down to 1. We are active, but I am really looking forward to going on trail rides like that and no diaper bag. You guys rock!! It also seems like you have great relationships with your kids!! You all are awesome!!
One of the things I really like about you, is your kids help out in the kitchen & lots of other chores too. My thoughts on the kitchen is, it’s going in their bellies too, so they should help.My 2 oldest are men now, but when they were little I had them helping in the kitchen from the time they could kneel on a chair to reach the counter. They loved it, now they’re the main cook in their families. I also have a daughter who has Down Syndrome & she helps me a lot too & we have a lot of fun together in the kitchen.
We did spring break in Scottsdale AZ and also did a large grocery haul once we arrived and stocked our villa’s fridge. I love having a full kitchen on Vacay. Honestly, it saved us 100s of dollars by not eating out!
I love doing that too...we have friends that brag about eating out at 5 star restaurants...but that just foes nothing for me...I've had years that I did that...now I would rather spend that money elsewhere
@@debiwillis9045 we usually do one fun sit down dinner (this trip we went to medieval times) but we prefer to eat our own food. It’s easier and cheaper.
We're going to Vegas (We're in Utah) for a couple of days and I plan to pack food for the trip and for some lunches. We usually enjoy a dinner our at Vegas and breakfast will just be protein shakes and fruit. I got this idea from you so thank you!
I am envious of your lifestyle! At 78 it's a little late for me to start mountain biking, (I'm paranoid about falling) but I am doing my best to become more active, and even the little I"ve been able to achieve so far is exciting!
I would be very interested in seeing them empty food cooler and you commenting back on what you packed as ate them all, didn’t bring enough or too much, wished I had pack. As in an empties unpack video.
I know it's a bit scary to have your son drive you but that's I learned how to drive. My parents divorced and my Dad would drive from Pennsylvania to Florida for summer visits. We would drive back to PA and I would drive when in North Carolina and that's how I got used to driving on the interstate. You're setting your son up for success when doing that. I'm glad you had fun and thank you for doing what you do!
My stepfather taught me to drive in a cemetery so that if I hit anything it was already dead. :) It was actually pretty awesome because I was able to go as slow as I needed without upsetting anyone, it was mostly empty and there were lots of turns to practice on.
I haven’t been subscribed for long, and Christine always talks about Hailey’s surgery, but I’ve never heard the reason she needed surgery. Was it an injury or something she was born with that needed fixing?
Grocery prices are definitely going up and will continue to do so. Great selection of snacks. Imagine what you would have paid if you had not already had those other things in your pantry. Thats why it's important to keep a stocked pantry. Good job! Looked like y'all had a fun weekend and Rogue fit in perfectly.
You have inspired me. I'll never be as active as your family but I've started walking my 100 yards multiple times a day. I even had a slope to climb (ok. Maybe 4 degrees, but it felt HUGE). What great videos you produce.
Thanks so much for sharing your families adventure spring break 💜 I absolutely love how you all love to get out and enjoy hiking, mountain bike riding and generally enjoying each other's company and it also looked like Rogue had a fantastic time as well 🐕 Love from Australia 🇦🇺 ❤️
I just did a video like this on my channel! I love seeing what other people buy for trips. We went to the Grand Canyon and stayed in an Airbnb with a full kitchen, so we brought a lot of food with us. It helped save us so much money since we weren’t eating out for all of our meals. Thanks for sharing Christine.
I dont know how I missed this video but it was great!! Moab is just beautiful and all the trails look so fun!! Love how supportive you all are on the trails of each other!! I can feel the love.
Y’all look like you had a terrific time in Moab-Such a pretty place and so cool! Rogue acted like a real trooper. How did the apples fair? Thank you so much for sharing your trip and bringing me along, Christine.
Looks like so much fun! I absolutely love your videos! Moab is beautiful. & Rogue is doing so well, she is gorgeous! Thanks for taking us along with you and your family!
Isn't that insane for apples?! The answer is to plant a tree and the future you will thank now you! Your kids are so lucky to have you two as their parents- what an experience that looks like!
I’m so jealous! Currently I’m sitting on a couch with my leg on a pillow recovering from leg surgery, staring out into the cold Manitoba winter wishing I was able to be biking, hiking, swimming…anything. Thanks for letting me live vicariously through you!!
Thank you for sharing your experience. We recently moved to SD and our family of 4 have made it a goal to hike every week(weather permitting) with our 4 dogs. It is amazing and bringing all of us closer together. New subscriber. 💗
Thank you for showing us how being frugal can allow you to go to super cool places. Loved all the footage of the cool hiking and biking trails in Moab!
Oh yes. We have a family cabin at a popular lake in Minnesota. The town is easiest to get to by boat, and also only has one small store. Last year was my first family trip with my own child and I regret not packing more snacks, and at least lunch things to take with us. Better prepared for this year now!
I love this. Thanks for sharing your trip packing tips and the Utah pictures. We are hoping to visit Utah next year. We visited Idaho, Wyoming, and Montana last year. We loved it. So beautiful!!
I love Moab! We live in Denver and have new electric bikes that I ride for 6-10 miles when possible. It’s cold and miserable in Denver and I am definitely waiting for summer!
Last summer we stayed in Monticello west of Moab. We loved that area. Arches nana park is amazing!!!! We enjoyed it more than the Grand Canyon. Next time you are in the area, look up Newspaper rock. We had never heard of it, and discovered it is amazing. There is a little campground in the national forest in Monticello, secluded and peaceful. We stayed for seven days.
How nice it must be to just be able to pack up and go on such a fun vacation. I live in S TX but there doesn’t seem to be anything fun to do. Lotsa flat land and cattle. Plus, we’ve got snakes - LOTSA snakes. Those kind that bite you and you die!!!👀 Plus, it takes alllllll day just to get out of TX. I have learned, though - from you! - to pack my own food. I’m doing that from now on. I LOVE when you show your vacation highlights. 🚴🚴♂️♥️🥰🥾
Rogue can certainly handle more than a mile. As a Doodle parent, our girl has always had amazingly athletic ability to run and recover. The Vet has always remarked about her "athletic heartrate" So, let he enjoy your energy as soon as you feel ready.
Hubby and I still bring 90% of our food and drink with us. For meals I cook then place in a Ziploc bag and freeze. When you have several frozen meal bricks in an insulated bag (those jumbo Costco bags are excellent) they keep each other cold until we get to our destination. At destination we just need to microwave our pre-cooked meals.
I would be interested to see how you stock your first aid kit for adventure activity trips like this and who carries it? Obviously there are some mishaps.
I'm from Idaho and I had to laugh when I saw your feet in the part of the video where you were picking Rogue up at the groomers. You had flip flops on and you said you had snow 🤣🤣 you've mentioned you lived in Texas before so your flip flops in the snow is the perfect mix of a Texa meets Idaho thing 🤣🤣🤣
I cannot believe you only get Monday and Friday off. What a jip. We get a week! Loving the doggey footage. She’s such a cutie. My husband wants a trail dog for hiking/biking.
I live in a tourist area. Within 20 miles I have Camelback, Great Wolf, Kalahari and 2 Casinos. It's crazy especially in the winter with snowboarding and skiing. I know that some grocery stores that are close to those attractions are a bit more expensive and you best believe they don't have a discount rack.
Smart. we went to the Bahamas for Spring Break and did not plan ahead. Let's just say the snack prices 😮 Yeah, I learned my lesson. As for your $85, that was one dinner for our family of four on our vacation. I think you got off cheap😊
I heard this about Spring Break that kids are just getting Friday and Monday off. My family would drive from Ohio to D.C. to visit my uncle for the week. We would have steak and le sour peas or something on Friday night.
Mary on Richard's phone from sunny Florida where it's 80°. that was so funny when Dave said she said she's all right but just to look on his face was cool
I can NOT stand round about's I have one in the town I live in and I will drive 3 Miles out of my way and get on the expressway for 2 miles to avoid ours , it's that bad. Great Video thanks for taking us on vacation with you.❤️
You are right I live in Stowe Vermont and I work in the basically only tiny grocery store. It’s a ski resort town in winter and all sorts of stuff in summer. My store is empty a lot and the regulars complain so much lol Have a good time!!
Can you post a video that discusses frugal planning for a ordinary vacation. We are both older and my husband would not consider your vacation, a vacation.
Thanks for taking me down memory lane. I took my grandsons on a trip from Illinois to California 2017, wish I had know more about Moab. Got in late spent most of next day at arches
I was craving oranges a few weeks ago so I ran up to the grocery store. Got 4 average sized oranges, got to the checkout, and 4 oranges cost $10!!!!!!! I couldn't believe it! Needless to say, I didn't satisfy my craving because those oranges stayed right there! Absolutely insane.
With global warming, food is going to cost more and more... It gets really hot, so in the Arctic ice melts, disturbing marine currents, which then disturbs air currents, and suddenly, after a heat wave, we have a cold wave. So then everything that bloomed ices, making it more costly to harvest food, because half of it dies. It's going to be worse and worse, with each year passing us not adressing this issue... Brace yourself !
That’s expensive. I got a bag of 5 Cara Cara oranges from Trader Joe’s for $3+ and those were the higher price oranges. Regular kind will be less. Try to check out other stores next time. Craving is hard to bear.
Thank you! My big adventure is walking 20 minutes to the grocery store, doctor's office, or to the bus stop! I'm 72! Just have been retired from being a lunch lady for 7 months! Being a senior citizen is the greatest adventure!
...adventure in pain...wake up to something different everyday... I guess I should be thankful to waleup...😁
That’s awesome you were able to retire and are living your best life now!! Be careful walking, I wish you the best ❤️

You and Dave truly have the sweetiest marriage, you can tell you are each others bestfriends.

I would be very interested in seeing them empty food cooler and you commenting back on what you packed as ate them all, didn’t bring enough or too much, wished I had pack. As in an empties unpack video.
In 1985, I flew into Moab and went whitewater rafting & jeeping for a week. It was awesome!

That pup is SOOOO stinking CUTE!!!!
"It's not even expired!" That's something I say allllll the time about pasta or canned things.
My stepfather taught me to drive in a cemetery so that if I hit anything it was already dead. :) It was actually pretty awesome because I was able to go as slow as I needed without upsetting anyone, it was mostly empty and there were lots of turns to practice on.
So lovely to see Hailey back on two feet and enjoying life.
I haven’t been subscribed for long, and Christine always talks about Hailey’s surgery, but I’ve never heard the reason she needed surgery. Was it an injury or something she was born with that needed fixing?
LOL. "It's not even expired!" You so sound like me.

Moab IS amazing! We enjoy visiting National Parks, and Moab was perfect. Arches quickly became one of my top 3 National Parks! So much to see and do!
Y’all look like you had a terrific time in Moab-Such a pretty place and so cool! Rogue acted like a real trooper. How did the apples fair? Thank you so much for sharing your trip and bringing me along, Christine.
Nice! Ur kids r lucky to live like that!! 👍👍 Good job, Mom and Dad!!!
Looks like so much fun! I absolutely love your videos! Moab is beautiful. & Rogue is doing so well, she is gorgeous! Thanks for taking us along with you and your family!
The key to fruit is to buy in season. Right now, blueberries and strawberries are lower in price. And grapes.
Isn't that insane for apples?! The answer is to plant a tree and the future you will thank now you! Your kids are so lucky to have you two as their parents- what an experience that looks like!
I’m so jealous! Currently I’m sitting on a couch with my leg on a pillow recovering from leg surgery, staring out into the cold Manitoba winter wishing I was able to be biking, hiking, swimming…anything. Thanks for letting me live vicariously through you!!
Sent a prayer up for your healing ❤️🩹
@@jaimeshore9989 thank you 🥰
I’m in Winnipeg and feel your pain (minus the leg surgery), good luck with your healing!
@@kassandrahenrikson2118 Winnipeg too! Glad we didn’t get the rain/snow they forecasted…😋
Hope you feel better soon. Also from Winnipeg and am so over this da*m weather ugh lol.
Looks like so much fun! Great memories. I agree, it’s so much better to bring as many snacks and meals as possible.
Rogue is such a pretty dog. Love her coloring. Great video for outside living / camping.
Your family are hard core recreatioalists. And brave. As I've gotten older I've become fearful.
Whoo hoo what fun! Great shots beautiful place! Hope you had as much fun as it looked
So fun love the holidays you take, the childhood memories your building for your babies absolutely amazing

Rogue was making sure you were okay! She is precious!
you guys are truly one of my favorite youtube channels!
We used to camp in north Michigan but not anymore because of medical reasons !!! We are 2 people in our family lives right now !!!
I love this. Thanks for sharing your trip packing tips and the Utah pictures. We are hoping to visit Utah next year. We visited Idaho, Wyoming, and Montana last year. We loved it. So beautiful!!
I’m actually really excited to use your sponsor. My dog was sick the other day and it cost us $600! Literally the next day he was fine.
It's been SO NICE to avoid those expensive vet visits with something like this!
I love Moab! We live in Denver and have new electric bikes that I ride for 6-10 miles when possible. It’s cold and miserable in Denver and I am definitely waiting for summer!
Keep on truckin' FFM family! Love watching you guys enjoying life together and loving it. Thanks for sharing.
Last summer we stayed in Monticello west of Moab. We loved that area. Arches nana park is amazing!!!! We enjoyed it more than the Grand Canyon. Next time you are in the area, look up Newspaper rock. We had never heard of it, and discovered it is amazing. There is a little campground in the national forest in Monticello, secluded and peaceful. We stayed for seven days.
We just got back from an Easter vacation and did the same. We don’t eat out on vacation, we always cook our dinners.
Apples are insane! My son loves them so this year we are planting some trees in hopes they produce fruit by the time he's a teenager.
Looks like you guys have such a great time in the outdoors as a family. So cool.
Thank you for sharing your adventures 😊
Future chip suggestions for any time, when you can find it. WinCo's Smoked Guda are the boom. What a great trip, that's for sharing 💞
Love the Jim Gaffigan reference 😂 “let’s go eat something, and then after we can go get something to eat”
How nice it must be to just be able to pack up and go on such a fun vacation. I live in S TX but there doesn’t seem to be anything fun to do. Lotsa flat land and cattle.

South Texas sounds like BEACHES or maybe San Antonio or perhaps big bend?

Well said!
Hubby and I still bring 90% of our food and drink with us. For meals I cook then place in a Ziploc bag and freeze. When you have several frozen meal bricks in an insulated bag (those jumbo Costco bags are excellent) they keep each other cold until we get to our destination. At destination we just need to microwave our pre-cooked meals.
I would be interested to see how you stock your first aid kit for adventure activity trips like this and who carries it? Obviously there are some mishaps.
I'm from Idaho and I had to laugh when I saw your feet in the part of the video where you were picking Rogue up at the groomers. You had flip flops on and you said you had snow 🤣🤣 you've mentioned you lived in Texas before so your flip flops in the snow is the perfect mix of a Texa meets Idaho thing 🤣🤣🤣
Good for you , family vacation 👏👏 We just bought Ebikes, so our summer will be local and outdoor
We also love the Pupford training treats and bully sticks are life for our dog
Moab is amazing, outside of Yellowstone my favorite place in the US
I cannot believe you only get Monday and Friday off. What a jip. We get a week!
Loving the doggey footage. She’s such a cutie. My husband wants a trail dog for hiking/biking.
I'm just amazed at how easily you got out of that box 📦 🤣
Looked like such a fun family time
Wait! One box of pasta for 6 wow! You have a lovely family! I love the videos. And I love your healthy meals!
Omg I loved watching this!! I'm so jealous! Everything looked amazing!!!
Yes, by the bread. It is amazing.
Hope you had a blast!!!! I grew up in Moab!
I am disabled and cannot do those things but felt like I was with you! Awesome video!
I live in a tourist area. Within 20 miles I have Camelback, Great Wolf, Kalahari and 2 Casinos. It's crazy especially in the winter with snowboarding and skiing. I know that some grocery stores that are close to those attractions are a bit more expensive and you best believe they don't have a discount rack.
Looks like Rogue had just as much fun as you did!

I heard this about Spring Break that kids are just getting Friday and Monday off. My family would drive from Ohio to D.C. to visit my uncle for the week. We would have steak and le sour peas or something on Friday night.
Nice trip! Beautiful country in Moab.
Fun to watch, this is what we would do, always brought food and ate out once over lunch
I love your vacation prep videos! Thank you for sharing your tips
I have 2 of those totes that I use as planters for vegetables.
Mary on Richard's phone from sunny Florida where it's 80°. that was so funny when Dave said she said she's all right but just to look on his face was cool
Love the grocery hauls!
Love Moab ! We rented a Jeep and did off roading last time we were there, so much fun!
UTAH IS GORGEOUS!!!
I can NOT stand round about's I have one in the town I live in and I will drive 3 Miles out of my way and get on the expressway for 2 miles to avoid ours , it's that bad.
Great Video thanks for taking us on vacation with you.❤️
You are right I live in Stowe Vermont and I work in the basically only tiny grocery store. It’s a ski resort town in winter and all sorts of stuff in summer. My store is empty a lot and the regulars complain so much lol Have a good time!!
Can you post a video that discusses frugal planning for a ordinary vacation. We are both older and my husband would not consider your vacation, a vacation.
Woah Rogue is going to be a perfect addition to the family!
Thanks for taking me down memory lane. I took my grandsons on a trip from Illinois to California 2017, wish I had know more about Moab. Got in late spent most of next day at arches
Wish we'd stayed 1 whole day before trekking on. Boys loved it hiking climbing the rocks beautiful there
TFS ...this looks like a great time ...❤️
Utah is nice I ended staying more than 6 mos there hehe🌅beautiful sunset
We absolutely love Moab but as we live near memphis TN we don’t get to go often. There’s this great little taco place we love too lol.
Thanks for sharing your trip! That warm weather looks amazing! Still cold and rainy and sometimes snowing in Oregon.
I was craving oranges a few weeks ago so I ran up to the grocery store. Got 4 average sized oranges, got to the checkout, and 4 oranges cost $10!!!!!!! I couldn't believe it! Needless to say, I didn't satisfy my craving because those oranges stayed right there! Absolutely insane.
With global warming, food is going to cost more and more...
It gets really hot, so in the Arctic ice melts, disturbing marine currents, which then disturbs air currents, and suddenly, after a heat wave, we have a cold wave.
So then everything that bloomed ices, making it more costly to harvest food, because half of it dies.
It's going to be worse and worse, with each year passing us not adressing this issue... Brace yourself !
That’s expensive. I got a bag of 5 Cara Cara oranges from Trader Joe’s for $3+ and those were the higher price oranges. Regular kind will be less. Try to check out other stores next time. Craving is hard to bear.
I thought that in Poland prices are high, but for over 2 pounds (1 kg) of oranges I need to pay 5,70 PLN (1,33$). In December is much more cheaper.
