Will take the trailer to Bucks Lake for the summer.
And will let the husband set everything up…
…while they relax.
But they will also play games together.
And go hiking in the woods.
And will put a few fingers in the still very chilly lake.
They will pass out on beds (and not air mattresses) after very long days outside.
The family that trailer camps together, stays together.
This week over at Business 2 Blogger, I’m talking all about the new Facebook Pages Manager App.
And over at One Martini this week, we posted recipes for a Midori Melon Mojito and a Drunken Coffee Nut Cocktail. You don’t want to miss either of these drinks.

So awesome! I love camping in trailers/RV’s. Nothing like sitting by a campfire…but then getting to sleep inside.

Not having to worry about bears in the middle of the night is a plus too.
That looks like so much fun! Way better than sleeping in a tent!!

I thought so although my husband said it’s not really camping. Whatever.
I wanna go!
Only if you say please.

That looks a lot more appealing than sleeping on an air mattress in a tent. I’ve always wanted to rent a winnibego and travel cross country.

You know I hate camping…right? But honestly when I look at it through your eyes like this…it doesn’t look so bad. LOL. I just love watching your family through this screen..those gorgeous girls and your silly, crazy chaotic life (sometimes).LOL have so much fun!!!!

I think you might like trailer camping. It’s way easier and not as dirty.
I can’t wait to go camping this year. We normally borrow my husband’s bosses trailer but i think we may have to rough it this time.
Kimberly recently posted..More Than A Feeling
It’s okay to rough it every once in awhile. I think we will be going tent camping this August.
FUN!
Nicole recently posted..I Don’t Know When, We’ll Get Together Then
Camping with a trailer seems so luxurious. All I know is the family that tent camps together has a mom who never wants to go camping.
I know that feeling well which is why I didn’t go camping at all last year with my husband. I made him go by himself. But now that we have the trailer, I’m more likely to go.

We used to camp before the kids came (which now that I think about it should be the opposite). After getting caught in a huge storm, I vowed never to do it again. This makes me want to change my mind. Looks like so much fun!

When my youngest was 3 months old we went camping and I got kidney stones and it rained on us for 2 days. I have hated camping ever since. The trailer, completely changed my mind about camping and I enjoyed it when we went.

That looks like so much fun! My husband and I want to take the kids in a RV trip when they get older across the country!

That would be fun!
I’ve always wanted an RV, just so I could do family camping trips. I don’t have a RV, but it’s a dream of mine. I hope you all have a blast!
It does making camping so much easier, especially with young kids.
Our dear friends have an amazing RV and go camping at the beach regularly. We always drive up to meet them (and occasionally tent-camp beside their RV) but oh how I want the trailer.
So amazing.
A house on wheels. You can take your family anywhere.
And the love right along with it.

I made everyone turn their phones and iPods off and enjoy 4 days of family time. It was wonderful.
That looks like so much fun. I want to do something like this when D is a bit older.

My kids had a blast so I’m sure D would like it too.
My husband is totally jealous. He wants one so bad….
Have fun!

Air mattress sleeping while camping is never comfortable and always seems extra cold.

We have a pop up and it was the best investment we ever made. I will NEVER camp in a tent again, even if that means I’m not a “real” camper. It looks like you and your family had a fun time!
Teresa recently posted..I’m still here
We might have to tent camp from time to time but it will help me enjoy the trailer even more.

I absolutely love this! This is exactly the kind of road tripping/camping we want to do this year!

Such wonderful pics and a beautiful family! I totally agree — trailer camping is the way to go…I’m starting to think my tent camping days are over. Hope you get to have tons of great adventures this summer!
Mrs. Weber recently posted..The Bittersweet Move
I know my tent camping days aren’t completely done (or at least that’s what the husband said) but they will make me appreciate the trailer so much more.
What could be more fun than that? I have to admit that I’m also jealous

It’s definitely the way to camp, especially if you have young kids.
This looks like so much fun!

My husband wants a camper SO bad, me not so much, but I do enjoy the outdoors and spending time with my family, so I suppose I will come around. Looks like the first of many memorable summer trips.
