Our daughter learned to ride a bike at the age of 2 without training wheels thanks to starting on a balance bike. In this blog we share tips to help get her rolling!

We started taking pj shots in the van 3 years ago. Swipe to see how things have changed. Sadly we missed last years picture amidst having to move out of our house for 3 weeks due to a massive water leak and mold 🤪. Can’t believe how little Marti was in the first! 🥰
Happy Thanksgiving from our family to yours! We are enjoying lots of time off grid! 🏜
Visiting the Cabrillo National Monument’s tidepools is a great fall and winter activity in San Diego. It’s fun to explore and see all of the little critters that call these pools home. Over the years of visiting, we’ve learned timing and planning is EVERYTHING if you want to maximize your experience. Here are a few tips:
Fall is officially here and it's time to pull out all of the cozy gear. This weekend we layered on the blankets, fleeces, cozy shoes, and whipped up some tasty cinnamon rolls to eat by the campfire. Our latest addition to the cozy gear list is our @keen.kids Howsers. We've been living in them at camp (and at home), and Marti has even deemed them the "comfy cozy shoes."  They feel like slippers! We love that we can easily slip them and hang around camp, but they can still hang tough on the scooter or bike because who has time to stop the kids and swap shoes?Â
We do not have a diesel heater in our van, but we are able to keep cozy during the winter months camping in our van with the following:
Who’s ready for snow?! We know we are after looking back at all of these fun winter memories!
Van builds for families. The beauty of these rigs is their versatility to be built out in so many ways. When we started our journey gathering ideas for our van, we were a family of two. However, during the design process we found out we were expecting! Building a van for a couple is very different than building a van for a family. We share our experience designing our van for those adventures out there considering, building, or even renovating their builds to accommodate kids!
We review the clothing and gear we used to stay cozy when temperatures dipped below 30 degrees on our recent backpacking trip. Check our cold weather gear highlight for links to the items in this video.
Such a great spot for a stop over campsite on our way to explore a new backpacking trail. We prefer to drive about 7 hours in a day (not counting stops) with the kids. We always scope our route for great National Forest, BLM, or other free camping spots to help break up our trip. This is one of our favs! Stay tuned for more posts about our multi-day backpacking trip with the kids over the holiday weekend! It was beautiful and we can’t wait to share more!
