Update and de-clutter of the boys’ room!
We couldn’t take it anymore! The shoes, the clothes, the toys! We had way to much of all of it! Living in an RV you have to constantly be pruning your collection of “things”. We spent almost the whole day donating, cleaning, repairing, and trashing a lot of “STUFF” in the kids’ room! Now it is much easier to find the toys, clothes, and shoes they are looking for! It feels and looks much better and is easier for the kids to clean themselves! It’s a win/win! (you can click to enlarge) We had also collected a HUGE collection of books from various trips to thrift stores and garage sales.…

Cheekwood Botanical Gardens and Museum of Art
Cheekwood Botanical Gardens and Museum of Art On August 11, 2012 we visited Cheekwood Botanical Gardens and Museum of Art for our home school field trip day.

Not just ANY botanical garden, but 55 acres of several beautiful, themed botanical gardens that opened to the public…

We drove out here with the expectations of really liking it. We set up at Arnold AFB and got settled in. The longer we are here the longer the tall, tall trees start to close in on us! We were told how beautiful Tennessee is and how we were going to like it. Even though what you can see of it is pretty, we long for wide open spaces and distant scenery. The number one…

Hill Air Force Base, Utah
So far we really like Hill Air Force Base, Utah. We stay at Fam Camps since we are military affiliated. This family camp is acceptable. The camp host is a little lazy and things do not get done in a timely manner, but the sites are level and it is in a great location. We are across the street from the gym, next to the track and field as well as next to the playground and splash park… which would be convenient if it weren’t in the 30’s outside! We have met some great people here so far and are looking forward to meeting more! The boys are loving the snow… and…
