Levi, your parents are amazing. From your dad's tiny model to plan the process, to your mom's whimsy in running to test the lights... Adorable! 😊
We couldn't have done it without them that's for sure! 😂🙏🏻
I think my worry now is once the interior is framed out and the sides become more rigid you may loose the flexibility that let it squeeze in the door.
Ohhhhhhh yeah were talking about that. We might have to get even more creative to reverse this job.
This is the most unhinged DIY project I've ever seen 😂😂 and I'm here for it! Your parents' perseverance and grit are amazing to see and reminds me of my own parents. No problem that can't be solved! You'll make great memories through this project and with your dad on the job, this is going to turn out so unique and beautiful ❤ Good luck!
Thank you so much!! We're really in this thing now! 😬😂
"unhinged" good choice of words lol
Measure twice, insert trailer once. Wait that’s not how it goes.
Leah did a great job on the sponsorship this week.
Your dads little model of the trailer 🥹 so cute he is so talented!
I know right!? And the best part is it actually really helped!
I love your dad’s ‘can-do” attitude to problem-solving. I mean, he sawed the jambs off of his shop doorway to get that trailer in there!
Is it actually possible to phase your Dad? He and your Mum are the most chill people I’ve ever seen (glad his moustache is temporary though). Leah should do more of your sponsored sections, that was hilarious 🤣. Good luck and love to you all xxxxx
Wow, this was impressive. You did a reverse birth with the trailer to get it into Guy and Jean's garage. So good to see James and Donna Lace in great form too. What a colossal project here Levi. Also, love Leah's advertising back home - so much fun.
Your Mum is a legend 😂😊
that little grin when she figures out the lights. and how low-key proud Dad was of her. i’m obsessed 😍
also i’m totally here for more unhinged new mom ad spots from Leah 😂
Love the little trailer model
Omg !! Bless your parents for loving a challenge!! Leah and her infomercial😂😂 What a great sense of humor you both have had to have against adversity!!! Sending lots of hugs to all and especially Frankie❤ ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much!!
Watching you & your parents in the NW environment is a lot like I remember going to the Minnesota north woods to do projects with a friend & their parents. Such wholesome memories & experiences that build character and relationships!
Ohhhh we're building character that's for sure! 😂
Amazing. Your parents are great. We need more content like this on CZcams to get kids interested in taking on projects with their hands.
Hey Levi. Please let your mom know that we just absolutely adore her. I want to be like her when I'm a grandma. ♥️
Oh man!! what an adventure!!… I really didn’t think it was gonna make it !
And I love seeing Franky slowly grow, and the dynamics!
I like how the content accompanies your new adventures…. Glad to be around still!! Keep it going!!
And mannn, wow, that trailer it’s a real PROJECT …. Glad to follow along ✌️✌️👍😉
Hahahaha yeah it's an adventure that's for sure 😂😬 thanks for being here for it 🥰
I loved seeing recognizing many of your mannerisms, expressions, chagrin in your Dad.
He's been a pretty big influence on me you could say 😂🥹
I LOVE that your mom is such a brilliant, capable woman.
I kept only asking myself "how is it coming out when it's done?", now I cannot wait for it to be ready and out, it will be another fun time.
Neither can we! Lots of work to do in the meantime though 😬👀
So much time and money into a trailer. Such patient supportive parents .. who may just be wondering ‘but why ? “
Interesting journey for sure
Why are they just so cool!!! We love your mom and dad 🤩 Ariel loves when they're in your videos!!!! 🥰 They are saints for this xoxo
Awesome. I love when folks figure out how to make something seemingly impossible become a reality. Good show!!!!!!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Who would have known after I watched your video of the Birkenstock repair that I'd be so pulled in to watching a wonderful family in the PNW. I just spent a gorgeous Thanksgiving in Victoria, BC. ❤
Love spending Saturday morning with your Family! ❤️💙💙
Everything is part of life’s adventures, as you both know. Thank you 🤗
How absolutely fortunate one is when they have good family and friends ready to help. This was amazing!
Yes we are so blessed! 🥰
It totally doesn’t matter that there is snow in the trailer. At this point you could leave it outside through the winter with both vent fans removed. The only thing left in the trailer is the subfloor, which you are going to replace anyway. It is a fiberglass shell. It’ll be fine.
Truearth laundry strips are great! I have used them for over a year. I typically only use half a strip for full loads. I will occasionally add some laundry booster if it’s a really dirty load.
Definitely just had a “dont trust what you see on youtube because it’s probably gonna be harder in real life” moment last week trying to fix my washing machine…😂
Hahah yeah it's always easier in theory... or on youtube. 😂
I loved leah doing the sponsorship it was so good so funny
Watching you all try to bring the trailer into the garage is reminding me of when my brother couldn’t fit his couch through the front door so my brother-in-law took the frame off the door to make it work. Watching your whole process here is impressive!
Haha yeah it’s exactly that but on a much bigger scale 😅
Family (&friend) team work!! Mom & Dad are so freakin’ cool! 🤓
I was holding my breath watching that camper scooch in!
On the diaper rash: if you have a compounding pharmacy, my ob/gyn would send off an order for Dr-something’s diaper cream. I know it had Maalox and an antifungal in the preparation and was absolutely fantastic. I can’t remember because my kids are adults, but I’m sure pharmacists do. ❤
Your parents are soooooo awesome! You are a very lucky son!
Just Wow! Also, Frankie is getting so big! Love to you all.
I think Leah needs to do more sponsor clips, I loved that! 😂
Hahaha she's a natural! 🥰😂
haah yeah I usually skip those but with Leah it's just too much fun to miss out!
Loved your ad break Leah! Make me chuckle so much ♥️
The world is truly blessed with people like your parents.
100% Agree with the A&W -- although the "Beyond" stuff not so much. Leah was obviously having way too much fun with that ad/ sponsorship, lol -- I guess a new Mom is entitled to a little too much wine after going dry for 9 months.
I'm so jealous of your parents, Levi. The projects I might have dragged them into.... They absolutely rock!
Looking forward to the rest of this build out!
Cheers!...from North Vancouver
This video was -SPECTACULAR! Everything about it from content to editing to Leah’s “infomercial “. I feel like I can guarantee these are memories you will cherish! Thanks so much for sharing. You’ve nailed keeping an “audience” engaged and wanting more! ( and just btw you are all great but can I just say your mom hit it out of the park” !!!)
Hahaha well you'll be seeing more of her as we go along because we're going to need her help 😂😂😂
Levi , your family is ridiculous, soooo lucky to have them. I think my family would have just said, lets get a new trailer ha
With that, the Galileo 7 Shuttle is nestled home in the Enterprise's bay. Nice shop! I'm quite jealous!
What an amazing feat! You got this 👏
Your parents rock Levi! As do the two of you ❤
Your dad is a rock star. Love the model. Wondering how hard it’s going to be to-get the trailer back out after the renovations? 😮😅
I honestly did not think it was going to fit. Consider me amazed!
Wow! 🙌🙌 now to get it out after being finished.
Jamie, you have a great attitude!!!
Levi, your father is a genius! What amazing parents
Your parents are legends! Wow!
You and your family are awesome!
I love how Leah’s basket came with you x
I love how methodical your parents are. I would have just wing'd it and hope for the best. Probably ending with me angry for stupid mistakes. It's my process. haha
Was on the edge of my seat, will it fit? There was drama, with the door jambs and rack in the way and finally victory at the end...
Tbh you and me both. This whole process was a SAGA. 😅
You have amazing parents. Well done.
WOW! WOW! WOW! Talk about persistence!
Your parents are Rock Stars!
What comes in must come out 😉😝. I see dad’s shop door being exchanged down the line 🤣🤣
Tell your dad that I love the stache!
Yep confirmed we have the same dad -retired cabinet-maker who thrives on weird projects that others don't think are possible. Also oof that ferry fare, as a fellow Vancouver Islander, i feel your pain
Yeah it’s a big chunk of the paycheck but the island is worth it 🥰
Please don't put the new roof vents on until after you move the trailer back outside. Your dad reminds me of my dad who was a Manitoba Mennonite, he was so creative and like your dad could solve any problem. ❤
He's a Manitoba Mennonite too! I guess it must be a prairie thing haha
Dear Levi, I am so happy to see that you are really invested in the trailer project and are enjoying it and hence are pulling through every challenge coming your way. Above all, my brother, you shall consider studying architecture or engineering - I have come to realise you appreciate technical and mechanical projects.
Best.

Hi! The diaper rash could be from detergent residue on the cloth diapers, if you’re still using them. We also had a diaper rash that would go away and it stopped when we lowered the amount of laundry detergent and added an extra rinse after every wash. Good luck!
We found success with disposables sadly and now we alternate back and forth and it seems to have kept it at bay. But that’s good to know!
Great that you found something that works for you. Cloth diapering can be a lot, and you have to find something that works for your family. We didn’t do it properly until our baby was a bit older, and we still use disposables at night. Maybe when you have adjusted to parenthood and your new family dynamic you will try cloth diapering again 😊
Just imagine how hard it would’ve been without a loving partner and parents. It ended well 🤗😎🤗
We love the detergent sheets for travel with our baby.
They're the best! ❤️🙏🏻
When you park a trailer, park across spots. It's fine. It's what we all do. Just park away from everyone else, away from store.
G and J are the best! Amazing stuff indeed! One day you’ll be doing it all with little Frankie too! ❤
We hope so! 🥰🥰
If there's an apocalypse I want to be around Levi's dad. Also, Levi you walk around in your towel in front of your parents!
Having a new baby is a whole lot. Sometimes it’s better to cut bait and recast. Those old trailers aren’t allowed in USA 🇺🇸 RV parks either bc of insurance. I found out the hard way in my reno.
100% your Dad knew this was going to fit before you even began the journey, great job!!
You’re mum and dad are amazing but once you have rebuilt it it’s going to be a workshop man cave 🤣🤣good luck and love to your family
Your parents are so cool!!
I can’t wait to see when you have to get it back out?!😂
😬😬😬😬😅
A victory for determination, patience, perseverance - and love. I have this mental podium in mind and can't decide which (or perhaps who!!) gets gold silver and bronze.
Hmmm how will it get out once the walls aren't soft 😅😅😅😅 so fun to watch
Would be have been cheaper to buy a new trailer? Glad you have your parents to help! The mini trailer was very cute
Try Bag balm on him originally for cows but it works on people too
Levi your mom’s one of my new “she-roes” 💕🤓
Parents of the year 🎉
So how will you get it out of there? Thanks for sharing.
it's going to be a lot heavier that's for sure. But those bump strips are living their best life.
how are you getting this out when its done?
your dad is the most PNW dad i swear.
And getting it out once it is filled with furniture and other heavy stuff 🙃
My parents would literally dish out cash to NOT do that😂😂😂 they would be like here, $$$ go buy something newer!
Those are my kinda folks! 🤣 This is way too much work for me!
Cornstarch is awesome for diaper rash!!!
I recognize Hope!
So my son also had bad diaper rash that keep coming back. I was Brest feeling and found out he was allergic to fructose.. every time I eat sugar or fruit it would turn into fructose in my milk and then he'd have poop that would make him get really bad during the rash that was like burning his skin...
When our daughter was born 30 years ago, the nurse in 100 Mile House said to use lots of Vaseline to avoid diaper rash. Worked like a charm.
Before your dad cut some of the frame off the doors I was wondering if y’all were gonna slap some Vaseline on it! 😅😅😅
leah you made me watch an add haha
Have you all tried using a cloth diaper service? Any thoughts?
More Leah ads please 😂
your parents are badass 🤣
I feel like I'm watching the RV trailer version of the 80s movie Money Pit. After all this work, I hope this trailer is passed down to Frankie and then his kids and his kids kids. 🤣🤣
Totally agree with others, you (and Leah) have THE BEST parents. They are in it for the long haul. Thanks for sharing.
We couldn’t do it without them! 🥰🙏🏼
whahahah the two squares of snow inside whahahah
100% lanolin is the best for diaper rash.
Your dad clearly thrives on slightly weird upcycle/restoration projects ;)
It’s his happy place 😅😜
I hope you never plan to ever get that back out of that shop 😂
I was thinking the same thing. Lol
Ok, so it’s in now… but how are you going to get it out? And will you be able to actually get in and out to work on it?
...I feel like you could sell a million of those models!!...I immediately wanted one haha...
… removal of the roof vents should have been the last thing before you move it in.
With a single row parking… most would take up 3-4 spaces going wide, if you can find a pull thru double as best bet
