Fulltime RV Living. With Toddlers and a Cat.

We live and work in South Texas and are currently full-timing in our 30 ft travel trailer!

Naturally, there is a lot of "We're #ReallyDoingThis" being uttered along the way as we make this journey.

Researching the next trailer

June 26, 2020 by Yazhi Leave a Comment

Since I got the itch to get back into RV’ing, I’ve been researching the different campers out there. Last time we did this, we had a 30 footer. While it was great to have that space to live in full-time, we are looking for something smaller for these camping trips and vacations. I started by […]

5 Things My RV Taught Me About Being a Family (with memes)

February 4, 2015 by Yazhi Leave a Comment

What does Family mean to you? Does blood relation make you a family? Does a marriage certificate, birth certificate or adoption certificate make you a family? Family has always been a difficult subject for me to tackle due to my childhood and life experience. Sometimes the people you started out life with aren’t always the people you want […]

Our first RV Surprise – We have a Combo Water Heater… that stopped working

December 29, 2014 by Yazhi 4 Comments

This one is a little embarrassing to admit but we just realized we actually have a combo water heater and not a propane-only one. When we bought it, I remember being told it was a propane powered water heater and I guess we took that at face value. How did we find this out? We […]

December 15, 2014 by Yazhi Leave a Comment

In Part 1, I wrote a bit about the RV we bought and some of the features we used along the way. The actual trip itself was a blast even though we were quite constrained by time. We had only 7 days in total to drive from Texas to South Carolina and back. The driving […]

Recipe: Lap Cheong Fried Rice – InstaPot edition

December 6, 2014 by Yazhi Leave a Comment

What is Lap Cheong? Why, it’s MAGIC! It’s a Chinese sausage that is sweet and salty made of pork and pork fat. The strong taste makes it a perfect ingredient to bring life to fried rice. So by now, you have heard me rave about this new Instapot Multipurpose Cooker we got off Amazon Cyber […]

Boondocking and Babies – Part 1

December 5, 2014 by Yazhi 4 Comments

So a couple of weeks ago, we went right ahead and purchased our new home off Craigslist. This is the Forrest River Coachmen Catalina 2011 28 BHS. It has a queen bedroom as well as bunk beds. The sofa and the dinette also convert to more beds if needed. The trailer measure 30 ft in length and 96 […]

Welcome to the blog!

September 29, 2014 by Yazhi Leave a Comment

We have a lot to do between now and December when our lease ends in our “Sticks and Bricks”. I’m thinking of making a checklist and putting it on the website so I can be reminded of all that needs to be done. Just off the top of my head: Buy the RV – mod […]
