- Got a little more than I bargained for when I head out for a solo camping trip in the rain. Ended up spending the night in a vicious thunderstorm. Fun stuff!

Awsome video. Finally someone who shares the storm while in the tent. Most turn off the camera once they get in they're tent. I think they miss sharing the best part of the camping experience. Good job.
I agree!! Thanks for watching Bill, much appreciated
@@CampingwithSamBananas 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Can tell you have no experience camping, or reality....lol.. How is this a review of the tent? lol.....you sat in your truck, eating, then "Got in the tent" as you said, "was only drizzling?" Then we get a bunch of different shots of a tarp, the rain, etc..Then you waking up, lol. You didn't stay in that tent, during that storm, and anyone here who believes you did, have zero experience in camping...let alone surviving in the bush, lol.........WOW
I agree with this point right here. That’s the part I always wanna see too and experience with you virtually
I’m so happy for him 😊
I love watching this video so much, it’s so relaxing before bed helping me sleep thank you so much it’s been hard to sleep thank you so so much ☺️
You made us experience as if we were camping with you. The sounds of rain and thunder was amazing experience to me.
I really appreciate that. That's what I was hoping for. Glad you liked it my friend.
RUBBISH! This poos gets into his CAR! After earinng beefburgers and getting frightened...
@@davideldred.campingwilder6481 😂😂😂😂
I was bored here in central England watching the rain hammering down outside my house, so I decided to catch a few videos here on RUclips, and I stumbled upon this one more by accident than design. 45 minutes later and you have yourself a new subscriber! If it hadn’t rained here today, I most probably wouldn’t have discovered your channel, which just goes to prove that the rain can have positive benefits too!
David welcome aboard my friend! Glad to have you as subscriber, hope you enjoy more of my stuff to come.
Sorry I've been gone for so long! If you didn't see the last video, my transmission went out while filming a stealth camp. It was an old Honda Accord, so I ended up financing a Subaru Outback. So far I love it. Thanks for watching!
Dude, steve wallis aint got nothing on sam bananas, im not even lying. Youre definitely a better chef, and you seem to be chippier.
Where I camp, the park has 2.7 million visitors a year, if each person pulled of one branch, how long before there were no more branches. I raised my family going to that park and they are now raising theirs, I buy firewood from the local people. You are allowed to harvest downed branches if you obtain a backcountry permit and follow the rules.
Was beginnin to think you got me hooked and disappeared. lol. Glad you are back. Love my Subaru! XTrek
Just came across your channel by chance. So far so good. I love rain, sound of rain is very soothing to me. If you can posted camping in the rain for hours, that would be nice. I like the feeling of being safe, secure, and cozy while mother nature pours down the wraith on to us. See your clip, I am imagine like I just said. Missed the old day when I was heathy and doing all those things. Now, I'm simi handicap, not capable of doing what you are doing on the clip(I have to stay near my medications, and medical equiptment at all time). So just watching you and reminisce the old days, not bad either(everyone will come to this point one day).
As for product review thing. I don't have much opion about it, so so to me, do not dislike it, have it or not doesn't matter to me. But if you decided to do product review, please stated the product name, model, price, and where you got it. In case I got interested in the product(rare, but sometimes I do interested in some product being reviewed).
Oh by the way, I noticed a cane toad on the clip, so I'm assuming that you are filming from Australia(messed up by introduced the cane toad to get rid of some insects if my memory serves me right).
Hello im from Indonesia
ruclips.net/video/Xp3PX0SHDbs/видео.html
Camping in the rain , in the dark, and having some drinks sounds like a great night. 👏
I agree, glad you liked it!
Man this is the kind of video I’m always searching for on RUclips. You know, a camp in some REAL rain! Love the videos bro. Keep ‘em coming!
Beautiful thank you my guy!
o sick of the black screen pretend storm asmer videos. This is one of the most legit camping in a storm
Me too 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I love the sound of rain on tarps and tents, also love the sound of a crackling fire.
Me too ❤️
Natural, humourous, fun!
I love it!
As much as I love these video's, most other RUclipsrs show too much detail on cooking rather then the WHOLE experience (including the rain)
Thank you for showing us the REAL experience!!
Thank you! That's what I was going for.
RUBBISH! He's a little GIRL in this video. In fact, little girls are more brave. FACT!!!
@@davideldred.campingwilder6481 Technically that's not a fact as little girls wouldn't be camping in a forest by themselves. I think you're a little disappointed, probably Jealous too. Maybe you created a RUclips account as I see, it says 'Camping Wilder' suggesting you're into camping but unfortunately your ambitions aren't reachable. Not getting subscribers/viewers...? Or just given up because you don't have the courage to do what these people do in their videos. I bet you'd love to be doing what they do, with the same viewers and positive attention. I couldn't care less if (in your opinion) he acts like a "little girl". He has a sense of humour, he's having fun and he's living his life, not only that but he's giving us an experience of what some people aren't able to do for their own reasons. I love camping and I love people that can enjoy their lives instead of bringing down others, sounds a bit bitter to me. Probably Jealously....I still stick to my original opinion and it's good to see a RUclipsr who knows have to have a laugh rather than focus all the camping experience on food (which most of us know how to make). Maybe you should go do something you enjoy instead of hating on others ☺️😁😁😁
@@craigday66608 you have your right to your opinion, as do I. End off...
@@davideldred.campingwilder6481 If that's what you truly believe then why would you feel the need to contradict yourself by telling me my comment is 'RUBBISH' and what YOU say about them (being a little girl) was mentioned to begin with...not only that but was made into a FACT (as you said). You're correct on that, it's an opinion (which we are all welcome to have) but my opinion is an opinion, just as yours is.
Not a fact! 😉
End off.....? Not sure that's correct either...it's my comment, so surely I can decide when it's ended 😂😁
When my grandson turned 13 l bought him a little tent. On our first night camping we had a huge storm and in the morning he said he loved it! He enjoyed being snuggled in his comfy camp bed and when he opened the tent flap there was a koala directly overhead. All positive , so he is a camping convert. He also impressed his mates on a school camp, being the only kid who knew how to erect and dismantle a tent. Such a morale booster
That's a cool story! Good for him and also good for you for giving that experience.
A bad raining nite of camping is still better than a good day at work .
True that my friend!!
100 percent!!!
You are so lucky. From 22 minutes on you had two of the best things, gorgeous burgers and pounding rain.
I agree! That was a really nice trip for sure.
I love these videos where u talk to us it makes me feel like I’m out there with you instead of watching a silent camp video like I’m some creeper lol enjoyed this thanks
Haha nice! Took me a while to get comfortable talking to the camera. Now I love it!
I'm a big Steve Wallis fan. Your videos are really good too. Thanks for sharing your adventures!
Haha thanks Doc! I appreciate the kind words and I love Steve as well
Sam Bananas is the undisputed Rain Camping King!
🌧 👑
It's helpful to see new gear being tried out. Thank you for taking us with you on these rainy outings.👍
Thanks for coming along!
I just found your channel as I finished my first suv camping experience and am expanding my interests. Now I want to adventure more!
You made me feel like going camping again! Some years ago I used to go camping with a bunch of girlfriends, (wild women of the woods we called ourselves, no husbands or boyfriends), It was fantastic. Every Memorial Day weekend that was our thing for quite a few years. I will be 80 years old in 5 years so I have put this idea on my bucket list. Thanks buddy for inspiring me.
Angela I hope you do get back out there soon. Good luck!
I'm 62 and my good friend is 67.......we each have our own cube tent we share a screen room as our kitchens ......we LOVE it.......do it if you can ....find some friends 😁 to go too 💚💚
Great video. Love how you didn't sugar coat anything. As I watched the video, I sure felt for you, man, with all that rain coming down outside and the constant trickle down your chimney stove pipe. You went out of your way to share the entire experience with us. Much appreciated and caused me to just now subscribe.
Mike that comment really means a lot and I appreciate it bud. Thank you for the sun, I've got lots more videos coming.
This has been a great way you set up for us to see the rain! You’re a genius.
Thank you! Haha glad you liked it Carmen!
You deserve more subscribers. The rain content you make is just too good. I watched your rain videos at night and it’s very nice and relaxing. Love your vids. Can’t wait for other videos. Thank you so much for the great content. 😊
Thank you for watching and I appreciate the kinds words.
@@CampingwithSamBananas thank you
First time watcher, I enjoyed your video! You are real and approachable and just fun to camp with, virtually!
Very kind words and much appreciated!
first off i use a large silver waterproof tarp, my tent is 9x13 , tarp is 12x20 silver tarp. i learned to use only the silver brand tarps, , they are heavy weight , but you will stay dry,. a word of caution, most tent are in different sizes and shapes, but i have done some studies on tents and found out that the only tent to buy is a double sewn bottom with a a basement bottom. the tents you will notice are a dark color or black bottom, comparted to the color of the tent. i bought a reylon tent, 8 person for the 4 of us and used it 4 times without it ever leaking, with or without the silver tarp.
Great camping story! You waited it out. We went camping. Very nice. We had a bottle of wine and some steaks. Then it stormed and hailed, and moved on. Unfortunately, another worse storm came. There was 6 inches of cold water flowing RAPIDLY THROUGH the tent! Gaaaah!!! EVERYTHING WAs WET!! AND COLD! At that point, we decided we needed to go back to the drawing boards with this camping idea. All of the wet gear went into the car trunk. We found a nice hotel not too far away, hot showers, warm room. Everything was nice, warm, and dry.
Haha sounds like quite the adventure!
Nice calming and relaxing rain sounds. Helps you to de-stress and calms your mind.
haha I absolutely love when it rains when we camp... minus the middle of the night wake up scrambling to get out of your tent to pee lol
Definitely add the gear reviews! But there's a catch: review the stuff us poor folks can afford. I would love to see a review of a harbor freight tarp, or a Coleman stove, or any other camping item that you are happy with. In all of your adventures I like knowing what works and what doesn't. Also your video gear. Like that tripod.
Great idea, thanks Colleen!
"seems like it's calming down, right? sounds like it's calming down"
meanwhile, literally more lightning than I have ever seen in my life
🤣🤣dude I was thinking the exact same thing when I was editing haha!
cool rainstorm. I always like watching you freaking out in the rain. you really get excited.
Haha yeah I love it. Fingers crossed I'm shooting another thunderstorm in this location this week.
love your vibe dude this is some serious camping love the sounds using them to help me sleep its super hard to find videos with a storm of this level on youtube you talking through it makes it so much more relaxing appreciate the hard work man
Dude I appreciate that very much. Thank you for watching and I hope to see you in the comments in the future.
Hello im from Indonesia
ruclips.net/video/Xp3PX0SHDbs/видео.html
Glad to see you back at man! Taking on a car payment when there wasn't one before can be tough...been there. BTW, sheltering in the ride is not cowardly, it's smart. Thanks for another cool video!
Dude thank you very for the kind words. Definitely appreciated.
Also Sam when you get home you should put you tent and sleeping bag out on the clothes line.
My dad would always recommend to dry you camping gear out.
Absolutely! I have a line in the basement for it. Unfortunately we don’t have much of a yard
I knew this was going to be good when you see a guy eating a meal in the middle of horrendous rain storm, a born survivor.
Haha I do my best 😉
I truly had such a great time watching your video and felt like I was there to. Before you got into your vehicle I was more worried about that second berger,it looked so good. Thanks man for the trip on camping with you..I've done many trips just like that 👌 thanks for bringing back the memories.
Dude that’s so nice of you! Glad you liked it and it conjured some nice memories for you
I kept thinking "give me that burger if you're not going to eat it!" Crazy storm!
Hey Dave!! Holy cow, thats freaking awesome man - thanks for the comment!!!
I love watching rain storms with lightning, I usually play , Thunder and Lightning by Queen, it’s great, makes my day 🤣👍🌸
Nice 👍
That is such a nice looking campground! I love your setup as well!!
Thanks for sharing 🙌
Thanks for watching!
new subscriber here! the youtube powers know I love thunderstorms, and camping videos. The two combined into this. LOVED the atmosphere. you made the right call for sitting in your grounded vehicle and not on that wood/metal table during the lightening. YIKERS
Thank you so much for watching! I appreciate that. It easy to edit that stuff and make it look like I stayed out the time but I like to keep it real and show it how it actually happens. Thank you so much for subscribing, cheers 🍻 🍌
Nothing better than camping in the rain, great video.
Thank you!!!
I would love to camp in the rain again, it’s so soothing, haven’t done it since I was a kid. Good video!
I appreciate that Linda. Camping the rain really is my favorite. It's awesome!!
Rain is the best while camping, Dad and I stayed in Indy like three weeks and it didn't stop, we built a fort that no rain could get to us. he even had a place dug out to keep the rain from coming into to floor of the tent... He taught me survival skills,him being Native, that was my best memory.
Sounds like you had a great dad ❤
@@CampingwithSamBananas He taught me how to survive. But we will leave it at that.
Don’t worry Sam, you patrons and subscribers have your back, you just keep getting that great content.👍🏿
My man! Thanks so much bud! Couldn’t do it without ya!
Haha the intro is crazy 🌧 Makes me hope for rain this weekend! Thanks man, these videos inspire me on my own adventures 🌲
Haha awesome dude! Glad to hear it, have fun out there!
Gotta love a good old rain storm. I love the sounds of the rain on the tent roof.awesome video.
I agree! Glad you liked it Taylor
i love setting up in solid rainstorms, eating W E L L....and hunkering down and eating well and appreciating primitive life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! rain on bros and sis's!!!!
🤘🍌🤘
This episode brought me back to camping as a kid and always getting rained out. Your channel is so fun. Keep it up.
I appreciate that man, thank you!
The best part of camping is if a storm or two or even three roll through! As long as you're prepared then next to your soulmate it's the most romantically exciting of feeling ALIVE experience you'll enjoy!!! ❤️ Love me some Weather 🙂👍
Absolutely! My wife not super big on tent camping but I know what you mean. Cheers 🍺🍌
loved this video. thank you for going out in the elements to capture it all brother.
Thanks man! Really my pleasure honestly. It was a blast!
Omg that was awesome 👌 I wanted to be there so bad just to wrap myself in a blanket and enjoy the rain. Great video
Glad you liked it!
Camping is a relaxing comforting thing to do. To light a fire, be warm, have a nice meal, enjoy nature, sleep in the woods. Its all about being close to nature.
👍
The videos in the rain are my favorite thank you !
You got it and thank you for watching!
Thanx for shouting out Steve wallis. That's guys awesome. Also great video I really enjoyed so please keep the content coming 😀
Glad you liked it! Steve is my hero
Quit exclaiming and finish your second hamburger before it turns to mush in the rain, Guy! LOL! What did you expect? Rain is WET! ;D Loved the video and I love that tent. I haven't seen any of your videos before and really enjoyed this one. Happy camping.
Haha dude glad you liked it. This one really me riled up for some reason LMAO!
All time favorite camping video. Mr B so funny, real and endearing. Thank you!
Aww man thank you!
This is so relexing i love thunder storm natures, i wish if i was there
Glad you liked it!
Hi there@@CampingwithSamBananas
I do like your gear reviews. You do bring a lot of enjoyment to your adventures. PLEASE... Do keep up the good work. You actually show mishaps and things(products) that are helpful and bring a lot of laughing on my part to my day. Thank you Sam .
I really appreciate comments like this. I try to leave mistakes and stuff in so people see how it really happens. I didn’t have to include getting in the car but I wanted to be honest. Glad you liked it my friend. Got a lot more coming!
I think a gear review every once in awhile would be good that helps to know whatz good and what's junk and I bet it is hard to camp every week
Thank you Wanda!
Now that was a great storm and video. I really enjoyed this, thanks :)
Very much appreciated thank you!
i loved everything about this video
Thank you very much! Cheers 🍌🍺
Miss camping in the rain nothing better to fall asleep listening to it hitting the tent.
I love it!
First vid that I ever watched from your channel. Raw footage while camping in a thunderstorm, booze, n burgers over fire got me to sub...thank you
Dude thank you!! It’s very much appreciated my friend.
Very cool stuff Sam. I really enjoyed it!
Awesome dude, thank you!!!
That was another fun one, Sam🍻 As for gear reviews-incorporating gear reviews, within a camping video, is maybe a better option than just a gear video. I’d like to know about gear you never leave home without, gear you like to have but don’t use often, and your gear regrets. If you took a shot from the banana flask every time I typed ‘gear’ in this comment, you’d have a pretty good buzz right now🍌👍🏻
Haha thanks John! So the truth is it’s really hard for me to get any more than two videos per month out. If I can still do that but also throw in one gear review, I think that’s a doable workload. That’s what I was kind of thinking.
First time in your channel came for the rain, I just love rain videos
Sam, good to have you back. I go car camping, or park and walk to a spot a few miles on. Most campground, if you ask, have remote sites, some will tell you "i have fifty acres, camp where you want". Wood is expensive, as a carpenter i have no shortage of kindling, or larger dimension lumber. I collect empty cardboard boxes from any establishment, then cut the wood to size, stacked neatly with newspaper stuffed between, be surprised how much wood fits in a box. As well collecting radom logs through the year, cut and stack for future use. I bring a 18volt makita saw & pull saw
with me, four charged batteries, good for four days cutting small logs i drag out of the woods, or rivers. Chopping gets old. Have a good one Sam.
Dude that’s a nice setup you have there. Cheers brother 🍻🍌
It's great seeing another video from you. Congrats on the new vehicle. What a storm and that lightening, wow! You made me hungry from those delicious looking burgers, lol. How's the Cafe Bustello? The tent looks awesome. I'm good with product reviews here and there. It's great seeing new products out there and in action. Have a great rest of the week! 😊👍
Thanks Karen, nice to see you! The coffee is probably the best instant stuff I’ve ever had I think
Love your “ oh my goodness” phrases
This is the best rain+tent+storm+raindropspunds = just perfect
Awesome glad you liked it bud!
This is what we like to watch videos 1st class . I hope you and Mrs Banana are enjoying yourselves and I hope to see more of your videos and I hope that Kevin is okay but I watch both your videos and I love both of them. I’m having a great time watching you and Kevin keep up the good work john Sheffield England
John I'm so glad you found my channel and I hope you stick around. Got a lot more coming my friend.
This is a very good camping channel, I am learning new camping skills and am out all the time, you have a great teaching channel
Thanks!
I would like to see a gear review every so often. Thanks for taking some of the viewers comments into thought.
My pleasure!
Whoa.....that's a storm. But you were killin me. Welcome to the party pal! Camp ground camping. Winner Winner. Positive part....No bugs. Best line of the whole video was "I need a rain suit, this poncho is nut cuttin it!" I was rollin.
😂 thanks! Yeah this was a fun one
That was one heck of a storm. I am glad you did not get hail. I enjoy gear review videos. Watching them has helped me immensely in obtaining quality gear. Sam. You and Kevin are going to be top creators soon. You two are definitely my favorites out of all others.
Very kind words and much appreciated my friend. Looking forward to that first video when you’re ready brother.
Im a single solo camper. I've Been all over in Wisconsin, didn't think anyone would
Get into it since I'm a single female who loves camping by myself.. I'm going to start viodeoing soon as soon as my Rode microphone gets here.. Sam Bananas is awesome, will have to meet up someday and camp together and hit some amazing hiking trails... I'm from wisconsin... emjoy
Watching again getting motivated for my camping trip tomorrow night. It will be a car camping trip near a bayou that goes through a sugar cane field. I plan to do a little catch and cook. But I have back up supplies. I do like car camping as you can bring the kitchen sink if you like. I also like not having to park the car where is may be robbed or vandalized. That activity is pretty bad here. I’m thinking that when I do back pack stuff I will be dropped off. We shall see.
Love the raw honesty Bro!
Thank you!!
It was so good that I had to watch it again. I love your videos and I enjoy watching your videos especially when it’s raining. Great stuff my friend John from Sheffield in England Great Britain
Appreciate it John!! Got more coming I promise.
Your tent looked super cosy. Your wood was a tad expensive but a fire is part of the evening pleasure. Thankyou for sharing, I'm watching wishing I was laying in the great outdoors listening to the rain. Would love to watch you with Steve W
Hi Annie! Thanks so much for watching and glad you enjoyed it. I hope someday I can make a video with Steve, he's really one of my heroes ❤
Hello im from Indonesia
ruclips.net/video/Xp3PX0SHDbs/видео.html
Neither rain nor sleet nor dark of night shall keep our brave hero from completing his appointed burger and beer. good video.
LMAO!! Ok you got me with that one 😂 thanks for watching Joe
love the storm rideout im glad to see someone as nuts as i am over a storm, i would like to see a gear review thanks for the trip
Thanks bud! Yes I love storms, truly so much fun ⛈
Eating a delicious campfire cooked burger, looking around nervously at the weather absolutely fucking it down onto a tarp keeping you actually pretty dry while also sat on a picnic bench is the single most niche life goal I could possibly define. The banana flask too. Incredible. I hope even when you wake on your worst days, you acknowledge with satisfaction and joy the comfort and peace this brings you but also what it may bring others. Its so weird and leftfield maybe to appreciate it this much, I cant explain it but its good vibes on par with the sun.
Haha dude that’s a lot of praise! Thanks man, I’m really glad you’re getting something out of the videos. Cheers 🍺🍌
I love it when it’s raining while camping. Good sleep.
You got that right!
Bro watching you eat that hamburger while the storm rolled was pure gold. We need an “omg” counter lol
Hahaha dude I know! I really should have put an OMG counter, that would have been so fun
This is what we called the real survival camping,know matter what in any situation 😁i love doing this at my village 👍man vs wild✌️
Nice dude 👍
I love thunderstorms like that it is so freaking calming, relaxing, exciting and sleeping kind of weather. And Those burgers is the I like them. Your video isn't boring one bit. This my first video of yours I watch. 🍺🥃⛈️
Awesome Sylvia, thank you so much! I really appreciate the kinds words. Got more videos coming
Wow love the thunder and lighting storm in the Forrest thanks for sharing God Bless
Thanks for watching Mark!
Saw this older video and noticed the rain in the title and decided to watch it again... I actually find most of my gear from guys like yourself doing gear reviews though these days i pretty much only buy higher end gear, buy it once buy it for life. great video Sam the storm was awesome...
Hey thanks man! I've always tried to get away with cheap gear. The more I do it, the more I realize it's fine for the occasional camper, but when you're out all the time and committed to. This hobby, it's a good idea to invest in quality gear.
Some good gear reviews are always welcome Sam. Especially if there's something unique and something you like about it.
Thanks man!
I like the car camping video. That’s about all I get to do. I have a suggestion for some gear reviews… cots/ sleeping systems for those of us bigger guys. I’m 6’3” and 300 lbs. There is not a lot of sleeping gear designed for us. Love the videos. Keep it up!
Dude that's actually a great. I have some friends your size and they never want to go because of the reasons you just listed. I'll look into that.
this was the Best Video !! finally a real review .. beer burgers and Rain !! lots of it !
Dude awesome! Glad you liked it my friend. Working on another that will go up tomorrow or the next day.
Rain camping and snow camping those are my favorite times to camp.
Me too
I really enjoy the videos. These videos reminded me of when I was a kid and I used to skip school, camp out in woods.
Sounds like fun! Really glad you are enjoying them my friend.
OUTSTANDING !! Video. I admire your honesty in the way you communicate with your viewers. I just subscribed to your Channel. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much Al! I always try to keep it real
that looks like every single boy scout trip we did in north georgia in the 80’s, minus the tarp 😂
Dude all of my scout trips were like this too. Just car camping in a campground.
@@CampingwithSamBananas - we did a lot of state park camping but usually in the primitive area if they had one…..but the rain…..we became experts at rain camping
@@wolffo999 nice!
"Oh my God. . . oh my God. . . oh my God. . . yee haa. . . oh my God. . ." what scintillating commentary.
Gear review sounds good to me, Sam. Great idea. Always look forward to your vids!
Fred you’re the man, thank you!
Always good to see gear being tested. It's expensive to try stuff out just to see how it performs! I rely on you guys to see new gear. Good testing.
Thanks John! The input is much appreciated.
Awesome video, man!! Very relaxing too!!
Thank you!
Gear reviews are great if they are honest and unbiased information and real world experience and knowledge is priceless have a beautiful day
Thank you for the feedback. You have a beautiful day as well!
Great video. About to go camping in Oz summer (stormy) with my family for first time, I haven’t been since scouts 30 years ago! Wanted to remember what rain and storm camping was like and this was a fantastic reminder. I won’t show my wife and 5&6 year old girls though just yet 😂
Good luck!
I really love Steve's videos I've been watching him since 2019 but I started yiu I think the end of last year maybe the beginning of this year you both are great
Thanks for watching my man!
Holly smoked! you are completely crazy 🤪. Thank you for the video. Good job 👏 👍
Haha glad you liked it 😁🍺🍌
Not to mention a big beautiful wedding! Happy Everything Mr.and Mrs. Bananas!
Love you Mom!
Love yous both too
