Welcome to Zion National Park y’all! Utah is beautiful, and this has been Yvette’s dream destination for a while now, so my favorite part of this stop was seeing how much she enjoyed being there. That being said, we learned very quickly that hiking with kids is not for the faint of heart…or patience lol. Can you guess which of the chocolate babies liked hiking the least? Also, please leave us tips on hiking with children, if we every decide to take our chances again we want to be prepared! Comment below!

ins and outs of the rv life

00:34
dirty in here
00:36
it’s a very small space
00:39
that we’re living in
00:40
with six people and so there’s not a lot
00:43
of space to share
00:45
and
00:47
we have stuff all over the place
00:49
everywhere
00:50

00:53
figure it out guys wherever you can fit
00:55

00:57
supposed to be well this is just it is
00:59
what it is you know it’s it it is what
01:02

01:04
we’re dealing with

01:13
what you watching
01:16
[Music]
01:23
the mighty ducks okay
01:27
when did you start recording
01:29
i’m just trying to give this dude some
01:31
privacy now he’s got a little bit of
01:33
privacy
01:34
um i’m trying to have my privacy because
01:36
i have not had my privacy in a very long
01:38
time as long as we’ve been on this trip
01:43
my
01:44
my whole entire family knows i’m like
01:46
privacy okay
01:48
um
01:49
here’s the food we got
01:52
apparently
01:53
we gotta restock
01:57
our kitchen
01:58
is
02:01
i feel like it’s good you know we’ve
02:03
been like stopping in a lot of places
02:05
eating
02:06
um we don’t have like the regular fast
02:09
food places we usually go
02:12
so we’ve been like eating mcdonald’s
02:13
sometimes and it’s been
02:15
pretty rough kids have very high
02:17
standards they’re like in-n-out kids
02:20
are
02:26
you know how you like privacy
02:31
i like privacy too go back inside
02:34
mind your
02:35
and don’t put your mouth on that
02:38
okay
02:40
the bathroom is pretty basic in here
02:43
it’s got a shower very low water
02:45
pressure it’s terrible
02:47
um
02:48
there’s a sink
02:50
brushing our teeth they got a medicine
02:52
cabinet in here
02:53
we keep a lot of our toiletries and
02:55
stuff like that we’ve been learning this
02:57
stuff and this is basically what we’ve
02:58
had to deal with it’s not glamorous
03:01
okay a lot of people make it look like
03:03
it’s easy and it’s
03:05
amazing and fun and the pictures are
03:07
always like so perfect and it’s not
03:11
even more than like families trying to
03:13
make like their families perfect rv life
03:15
is not
03:17
very inconvenient it’s all about the
03:19
memories you’re going to have while
03:20
you’re doing it
03:22
[Music]
03:24
you know it’s different when you’re
03:25
after this i know we’re going to
03:26
appreciate it but right now i’m like yo
03:31
how much more time i got left on this
03:32
big because that’s how i’m feeling
03:35
for the housing portion of the vehicle
03:37
we keep track of everything through this
03:38
indicator system this allows you to
03:40
check your levels to make sure you’re
03:42
not running low on fresh water or if
03:44
you’re overflowing on any other types of
03:46
fluids batteries etc this is one of the
03:49
things that kind of gets looked over
03:50
when talking about the rv life so i just
03:52
wanted to highlight it before we enjoy
03:54
anything about our destinations we have
03:56
to dump the sewage it’s always the same
03:58
process you have to empty the black
04:00
water and then you have to empty the
04:02
gray water then you have to do it in a
04:03
certain order or you’ll end up in some
04:05
serious well you know when we first
04:08
started the road trip this was something
04:09
i was probably most concerned about was
04:11
knowing how to do this and not making a
04:13
mistake but it was one of the things i
04:15
started to look forward to just to have
04:16
a moment alone that’s a trip right it’s
04:19
like we had so much freedom and
04:20
capabilities to travel and experience so
04:22
many different things i longed for
04:25
systematic routine i needed something to
04:27
keep me going
04:29
and almost looked forward to this
04:30
process
04:32
where are we
04:34
we’re at zion national park hold it up
04:36
high like that we are at zion
04:39
national
04:41
park
04:42
and we’re gonna do a hike
04:44
and we have walking sticks is this our
04:46
last stop before we go home
04:48
uh
04:49
yes i think yes it is
04:52
and that’s why
04:54
mom said we’re doing two days and we’re
04:57
gonna complain
04:59
um
05:00
tomorrow because because we the she
05:04
likes walks
05:06
and she just wants to build a family
05:09
on a walk
05:11
so
05:12

05:15
