    i know this is an older video but i just had to say it, im going camping for the first time by MYSELF and the first time since my mom passed. she used to do all the planning and grocery shopping and im only 19 so this video was a huge help and i just LOVED how you Mom-ified everything! amazing tips, good ideas, and always thinking ahead.

      Hi Sarra 👋👋,
      First, I am so sorry for your loss! I know your mom is super proud of you. Second, did you ever go on your solo camping trip? If so, how did you enjoy it?
      I love camping!! I always encourage everyone who enjoys camping to go by themselves at least 1 time. 🙂🙂 Take care.

    We love camping! My hubby grew up camping with his whole family and introduced it to me....it’s been 25 years! We have gone from basic tent camping to a pop up back to a bigger tent and a few years ago we bought a 42 foot trailer on a permanent site at an awesome family friendly campground complete with activities, pool, and restaurant! It was super affordable and just a little over an hour away from home! We go every weekend from April until October!! Camping has helped us create so many memories!! I can’t wait to see the vlog of your trip! ❤️

    (I am more of a camper kind of gal... more comforts built-in.) Keeping the food cold and cooking it is my challenge. I have seen everything from electric skillets ( handy to have to fry eggs, pancakes, hot dogs or burgers) to crock pots to people using their oven in those huge 5th wheels (the kind that has flat screen tvs... bump outs and the works... maybe that IS their home... who knows.) Coffee maker or something to set over a flame, percolator type. Flip flops for the shower/bathroom. Ear plugs (for those car alarms accidently set off ... or the very early risers starting their cars.. and general noise in the am... ug.) A good book or two and a lounge chair. Hopefully your campsite will have some shade. Have fun!

It's the little things that matter. Glad you have carried on the camping vacations through the years. I am looking forward to you sharing this camping trip with us...your followers! Have fun...and try to relax. You're always cleaning and cooking. Love and blessings!

    Boy you just took me back in time, my mom and dad always had a travel trailer, we pulled out trailer from Ohio to Myrtle Beach SC, our camp site was right across the street from the ocean, it was a dream! And when they got older they parked it permeant at a camp ground. Ohhhhh the memories. Have a fun and safe trip.

    Love this video! We go family camping multiple times a year as well and have been for years. I came across your channel because our first trip of the season is this coming weekend and I am geeking out about it...binge watching family camp videos is helping me to subdue my excitement lol. Thanks for sharing about your camping experiences...camping is very sentimental to me as well. Our family can never afford a big luxury vacation either and camping is perfect for vacationing on a budget. We usually camp for at least three nights because I agree that it is so much work to set up camp just to break it down the next day. I agree Pringles are a great camp snack since the can protects them and we always bring them. Have you ever made walking tacos while camping? A walking taco is where you put your taco meat and favorite taco ingredients into a small bag of Fritos so you can literally walk around with it! So easy to make and not much to clean up! One thing I cannot do without while camping is my cast iron skillets, single burner butane camp stove, and my coffee. I used to use a French press, but those grounds are messy. So now we have a coffee pour over and we love it!! I definitely want some of those hanging lights. Other than that, our camp bins seem very similar. The games we bring are UNO, Jenga, checkers, and Apples to Apples. It is so nice to have the family be out in nature and off of phones, tablets, and computers. Next, I'm going to find your camping vlog! Happy camping!!!

    We love our camping trips and having lights around the campsite as well but we use rope lights. I found that they are so much easier to clean, store and hang than the kind of lights you showed. I love the strand that you showed but for us, they aren't the easiest to travel with for many reasons. Just thought I'd put the suggestion out there for the rope lights. Hopefully your family is still camping, gaming and making memories! ⛺😊🗻
