Camper--April 12th

We made a big decision. Are you ready for this?

We decided to buy a CAMPER!! :0)


We felt a little senior citizen-ish when we decided to do this, but we have since found plenty of other 30 year olds who have campers or enjoy camping. We're not as random as we thought we were. :0)

We purchased a trailer that had been used by FEMA for temporary housing, and we ripped everything out of it. Brad put down a new floor, we bought a new mattress, and we had everything reupholstered. We wiped down every inch of the walls, cleaned it better than I've ever cleaned my house, and I think we were high on fumes for days. Boy, was it fun!!

Hunter took Daddy's calls while he was busy
hooking the trailer up. Shh! Don't tell Brad
I let him do that! :0)

Emily was so excited! Look at that sweet face
and that little wave!

Here we go! Off to surprise everyone....
and, boy, were they surprised when they saw it!

We pulled up in front of GM and Pappy's house.
They thought we had completely lost our minds,
but they were excited for us! ;0)

We LOVED the camper. And FEMA would hire you to decorate if they could see it now!

Lots of families here do this. I'm not ready but if the boys keep camping in the backyard I guess one day we will have to stretch our wings. :)
