Join us for traveling, organization, renovation, grocery hauls, homeschool, music and big family fun! We don't claim to be a perfect model family. If you step into our living room, you’ll find joy and sadness, bickering and forgiving, good moods and cranky moods, laughter and tears all wrapped in a big bundle of peace and love.

    Your RV is the prettiest one I have ever seen. You have made it look like a beautiful home. Since you have taught everyone to be minimalist it appears that you have all sorts of space.

    This is amazing. I am so in awe of your patience and grace. Thank you so much for sharing your rv. We’re about to venture out and get one ourselves.

    This was SO helpful! We’re a family of 8 and currently doing research on RVs - with a goal to RV fulltime! I absolutely LOVE your renovations and your wise organization!
    Do y’all own land to break from traveling at any point in the year? Or full time on the road?

    • @RollingbytheDozen
      @RollingbytheDozen  3 года назад +4

      That's awesome! We do not own land, but we are able to park at my parent's house and at least have an electrical hook up there. And there is an RV park in our hometown that feels like "home" when we stay.

    Do you full time RV?? And full time Homeschool??? How do you store holiday items ( other than Christmas)?? As they grow solutions??? Asking because we are down to 4 at home full-time Homeschool, we have a big stretch of land we are thinking about full-time rving?? Everyone we now with big families hate it, love the traveling but not actually living in the RV so asking questions they love traveling. We keep our smaller rv to travel the big rv would be our home. Printer for Homeschool?? So many questions.....but looking at all our options...Also from Texas!

    Hey we are getting a camper almost exactly like this one! Did you hire out painting everything? Also did you paint the headboard piece in the bedroom or did you just remove it and get a different one?

    • @RollingbytheDozen
      @RollingbytheDozen  2 года назад

      We painted it ourselves. It was a big job but worth it! I actually spray painted our headboard with a vinyl spray paint. It worked well.

    • @RollingbytheDozen
      @RollingbytheDozen  3 года назад

      Awesome! It is such a great lifestyle! 😊 Sheets to fit bunks we ordered off Etsy. The kids name blankets are from Highway 3. Big baskets in living room are from Pottery Barn or Pottery Barn Teen. Leather storage bins are from Target. And most other bins and baskets are from Amazon.

    This is a way too small. They need a voltage triton 4271 or a spacecraft to at least spread the kids out more. The voltage has two lofts and three bedrooms ( if you dont' use the garage for toys) that can sleep the kids way better.

      @RollingbytheDozen  3 года назад +1

      Awesome! It made a huge difference replacing ours. We bought ours off Wayfair. They are good about showing exact measurements of furniture. It fit through the door but we did have to think through how to strategically get it through and it was difficult in the moment. No regrets, though! 😊

      We have the Splendide TVM63X. Can be stacked or placed side by side. We had these stacked in our first RV and side by side in our second. They are great! Just like in a house, only smaller loads.
