I'm Erin, the mama of this tribe. 
I live with 5 boys ya'll! Pray for me.
Once in a while, I try once a week, to get on and blog.
Sometimes it's about travel, sometimes it's about family,
sometimes widowhood, sometimes trailer flips,
​sometimes living with 5 boys.
No matter what it's about, it's always about our life.

Does your family think you're nuts for your rv life?

In 2016 when we first decided to travel in an RV fulltime, this concept was pretty foreign to most. We were wedding photographers, only working on the weekends with kids in school during the week. Our weekdays were mostly open other than side work and we felt the urge to break away from whats expected and explore. To each other, this idea felt wildly freeing, to our family and friends, I think they thought we were nuts. I specifically remember my moms reaction when we shared our plans with her, "That sounds like a fun idea." To which I responded, "It's not actually an idea, we're really going to do it and thats why we're telling you."
Moving away from what's considered "normal" and changing course was a big jump but it was one we were so confident in. Getting away from a mortgage, a 9-5 job that barely paid the bills, and exploring the US sounded exactly like what we wanted to do.
So how did we handle those comments, questions, concerns and sometimes lack of support? We just did it. We didn't need anyones permission to hit the road. No matter how crazy they thought we were, we knew exactly what we wanted. When our parents decided to meet us on the road, travel with us a bit and watch our adventures on YouTube, they began ton understand the appeal. 
Now when we make big changes in our lives, they're not too often surprised. They tend to shrug, stand back and watch our next adventure unfold. We are lucky to have incredibly supportive parents, friends who are not afraid to ask all of the questions and kids who are just along for the ride. 
If you are deciding to jump into the RV Life fulltime and lack that support, just do it. They'll all come around and if they don't, it's still your life. Live it how you dream.
