If folks will watch y’all on a week-to-week basis for 18-24 months, they will know what RV life is like - - keep on keeping it real. Thank you!
Thank you! We are so glad you enjoy watching our channel 🥰
I absolutely love how this family makes RV life look so adventurous and cozy! The mother-daughter singing session is just the cutest! 🌟🚐❤
Awe thank you so much 🥰
This is the thing I think we hate the most with Tornadoes... and there has been a LOT this year my friend! We've been at our home base in KY and it's been a crazy 2024!! Always leave! Weather is just way too unpredictable! I think Hensley and our daughter Chloe would get along lol. Chloe always has a go-bag ready as soon as she hear's there is "possible" tornadoes lol. Also, I miss your videos like this!! These are my favorites. :)
You’re right the weather is getting worse each year. They would get along great I’m sure ☺️.
This has to be one of my favorite LJMJ tapes ever! Thanks for sharing your ordinary side, which is what we all experience daily, along with the exciting times. I smiled the whole time watching it. I consider you all friends though we have never met face to face. Watching Hensley's karaoke with her friends and Marissa was just adorable! Nathan that chicken looked amazing! I could almost smell it. God bless you all. ❤
Thank you, so glad you enjoyed it ☺️ he did a great job on the chicken!
An oak tree blew down onto our RV last year during a severe storm , and crushed the front end. We were fine but had to get another RV. We moved here to Oklahoma a couple of years ago, and all of this violent weather makes me want to return to Colorado!
I washed dishes too - it's preparing you for real life when you are on your own.
Y'all sing good😊
Oh I’m so sorry that happened! Washing dishes builds character 😅.
At 3:10 I love how Nathan is backing truck in and your blocking the entire mirror
😅😅😅
I have been full time RVing for over three years. It is A LOT of work. I am constantly doing DYI projects to fix all of the things that break..or making appointments for larger broken things. I think I’m going to move into my house again for awhile..to rest.😀
This lifestyle does have a lot of logistics and repairs but it’s worth it!
I’m 50yrs old & I was singing 9-5 when I was a child. My friend & I made a dance to it & made our parents watch us 😂. Some things never change ❤ And I used to think it said, “smoking dope with a lot of your friends waiting for the day” 😮😮🫣🫣🤭
And now everyone just trying to get away from the 9-5
😂😂😂
Hensley Go bag👍👍👍 All kids should have one
She’s always prepared
Thank you for sharing your everyday life of RV living. The look on JJ's face 😂, beautiful singing girls. ❤🇬🇧
He’s so funny! Thank you!
Safety tip…..don’t scoop your ice with a glass. If you get a piece of glass in your ice, it is difficult to tell.
Thanks for the tip!
As the son of a professional bartender, Never ever scoop ice with glass🥛🍷🍸🥃
Thanks for the tip!
This was an amazing video! Loved it so much. Love the concerts!! Chicken looked great Nathan!! The kiddos are adorable and growing up so fast.
Thanks so much!!
Thank you for sharing your daily family's journey with us. I love your videos. God bless you all
Thanks so much
Great video! Marissa, I have big feet and my husband does too. So of course our kids do too! Nothing we can help!! Better stability??!!!
Yes we have great balance!
Finally, we are back at it. After a 5 year break. I can only hope our families paths cross eventually… I love following you guys. Kinda crazy watching y’all’s family grow throughout the years.
Congratulations 🎉 thanks so much for watching us!
One of the best videos for the past 6 months. good job.
Glad you think so!
We have lived in OKC for the last 19 years so I know exactly what you are going through with the severe weather. We watch Ryan Hall Y’all on CZcams in addition to the local channels.
We will have to check out his channel thank you!
Fun video! Loved Hensley singing! Absolutely precious.
Thank you 😊
Love that you were watching Anthony on Upper Cumberland Weather. He’s my go to guy here in Smithville.
He is great 👍
This really captured RV life. Glad that the tornado missed you, but it was comforting to see you prepared. Such bad storms these past weeks. Keep smiling!
Thank you,RV life is full of ups and downs. Thankfully everyone has been safe through the storms!
These are the videos that I love the most where it includes behind the scenes! Take care. Love your family!
So glad you enjoyed this day in the life style vlog!
We actually rode out a tornado in middle TN about 30 years ago while in vacation with the family and a very pregnant wife. FYI, BBQ, beans, and cornbread are not good just before spending time "together" riding out a storm in the basement
😅🫣
Hi Nathan and Marissa! Great video! So glad you were ok from the tornado. I concerned of my sister who lives in Tennessee as well with the tornado but she said it flew by them and went else where..Thank goodness you all and my sister and her husband were ok. Love how you trying to hide from the Nathan’s meeting to get your clothes. It was seeing the entertainment with the dinner. Nice dinner show. lol! 😊 Great video! Love you guys! ❤❤🤗🤗 Have a great week and see you soon!
😅😅😅 thanks for watching!
We are full time and had 5 tornadoes while in Tennessee, you may have seen our video. I wish we would have had a basement, that is a best case scenario for sure….take care.
Yikes! That’s scary!
You crawling on the floor while he was in a zoom meeting 😂
I love y’all! It’s good to see others share the real life. I feel like we spend so much time with non-RVers or dreamers dispelling the myths!
That is so true, glad you enjoyed this video!
I so love your guys! You all show what real life is on the road! Thank you for what you do!
Thank you 😊
You all just make me smile 😊 Thank you for all your hard work to share your beautiful life with us. Much love from Canada ❤️🇨🇦
Thank you 😊
Ryan Hall Y’all is great on CZcams. He covers severe storms across the US. Stay safe!
Thanks!!
Thanks for sharing. You guys are the best.
Our pleasure!
🤣🤣 I love my hot dogs burnt!!!🤣🤣🤣
Yummmm!
This might be my favorite video of y'all's of all time. Love the reality. So fun to see inside your daily journey. 👏❤️
So glad you’ve enjoyed it! We love sharing real life in the RV!
Y’all always have so much fun and I really enjoy watching!! ❤❤❤❤
Thank you 😊
Thank you bunch for sharing your lives with us!
Thank you for watching.
A great video from your home base. RV life / living small is still great. At 50 we moved out of the city into an older 5th wheel that was home for 6+ years. Building a very large house our selves & being able to provide daycare for our 3 grandchildren as they arrived. Now 25 years later we are looking forward to life in a 5th wheel again. Snowbirds in reverse so to speak.
That’s awesome 👏🏻
Lordie How Time Fllies ! I have been watching you since Hensley was a baby..I love your family and your contribution to each other and your viewers. Thank you for sharing your journey.
Thank you 🥰
You both are doing such a great amazing job with those children teaching them the importance of chores and the school and a routine and also giving them some pretty epic Life Experiences
Thank you, we are trying our best 🥰
Great video. Your hard workers and you do a Super job. Thanks for sharing. ❤❤❤❤
Thanks for watching!!
I love you guys. I really enjoy the way you show us the behind the scenes portions of your life which is why I look forward to seeing your next video. Thanks for being awesome.
Thank you so much! 🥰
There is so much truth in this video. Thank you for the great editing, photography, and videography that went into this. And the heart. 🥰 - Michelle
Glad you enjoyed it!
You guys have such a great channel! Livin’ the dream!
Thank you 😊
Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for watching 🥰
I finally broke down and bought a travel trailer and a new tow vehicle. It’s only been 2 months full timing but I already love and hate it. 😂 There are all the things you see on CZcams, then there the things you don’t see like unclogging the toilet, setting up the rig in the rain, or forgetting to turn on the water heater when you really needed a hot shower before going to a work meeting the office. I’ve already battled storms in Tennessee and rough roads in New Jersey. So far, the worst of RV life is the drive between camp sites. Driving stinks!
There’s a lot of give and take in this lifestyle but it’s worth it!
Love your vlogs, sending love to you all from the UK
Awe thank you!
Loved the concert! Great show! ❤
Thanks!
What an awesome video of y’all family life. ❤
Thank you 😊
Thanks so much for sharing your family time with us. Please tell me those were plastic jars going into the ice for coffee and not glass. Glass can chip off into the ice and you'll never know.
It was glass but thanks for letting me know that!
❤ The Concert. Great job.
Thank you 😊
Loving your video. It is real. Love seeing Marissa and Hensley in the kitchen singing 9 - 5. Love the song and the movie, which I found at a Half-Priced Bookstore for $4.99 a little over a month ago. My Dad, sister and I took turns doing the dishes when my mom cooked. So, it is good that kids learn and do some chores. This is a great video, thank you all for sharing. Also, I love you all's outdoor concert on the deck. Love the Northern lights. You all are lucky in Tennessee to have basements in the permanent buildings, Texas doesn't have basements, they just build houses on slabs, and we get more than our share of tornadoes. A little over a year ago in December 2022, the Grapevine area, (not far from Euless), Texas had a breakout of tornadoes, that damaged a Sam's and a Walmart, a car wash and various other places, the carwash got rebuilt, the Walmart got fixed, and the Sams had reopened earlier this year. One reason I love the west side of the Rockies (Utah side), is that we didn't get tornadoes, when I went to college there back in 1978-1982. They did get one in Salt Lake City, in August 1999 which surprised me, but it is rare that Utah, gets in tornadoes.
Thank you, tornados 🌪️ are very scary we used to get them less frequently and it seems like they’re trending more and more.
went to school uphill both ways! love it
😂😂😂
It's not 'big feet' it's 'superior balance'. For Nathan, something that might be useful from a noise perspective is something I had to solve. I record content for a youtube channel where I teach illustration software. Being in an RV exposes us to a lot of background noise. Turns out in this age of AI, we can get rid of background noise through a nifty piece of software called Krisp. It's on the Mac and PC (I believe, I use it on the Mac). It removes background noise in real time during audio recording. A car drives by, or a child singing outside, no problem. They have a free version that lets you record up to an hour at a time or for like $100/year you get unlimited. It's a game changer for me being in an RV.
That’s a great tip, thank you for sharing!
We just purchased a weather radio to feel more confident we will receive warnings in our rv. We just need to tell it what county we are in when we are parked.
That’s a good idea!
Storms, shout out to the ryan hall y'all channel.
Thanks! Someone else mentioned him as well!
We just got home from camping today and we had to take shelter in the bath house because a tornado went right over our campground. What was concerning was we were in a hollow where signals are non-existent
Glad you’re safe 🙏
Yall are so COOL!
Thank you 😊
Bless your family glad all is safe
Hilarious Marisa but great job sneaking 🤣
😝😝😝
Thank you 🙏
Noodle was very excited to see Coffee Bean and Pinto Bean singing 9 to 5. The whole talent show was great. Grandma Sushi approves.
Hahaha so glad everyone loved it!!!
You're pretty good at this lifestyle. ❤
We have had a few years under our belts, and we still have challenges from time to time.
Good video. Thanks. Blessings
Thank you 😊
Another great video!
Thank you 😊
Kids need to do small chores like dishes it's a lifeskill lol. I'm No. 1 of 8 kids plus my parents , so we all pitched in and got the laundry 🧺, dishes, bathroom chores it prepared us all for life.
Yes we agree!
Me too! I am oldest of 5 kids and by the time I was 12, I could do just about anything; cook, clean, laundry, baby sit...It really prepared me for life! Kudos to you for teaching your children life skills!
Happy Nomadiversary! One random tooth under the slide can case a lot of damage, true but funny! 😂
That tooth could have been a disaster 😅
Well what do you know? We were in Monterey at the same time you were at your base home! We went to the camp office when the Tornado warnings were out. All o.k. We did not see the Aurora though. We didn't know about it and were sleeping! 🇨🇦
So glad you’re safe from the storms!
You two are so funny.
😅😂🤣
I am watching this while folding clothes. When Hensley was washing dishes and said "I don't want to be" (a helper) I laughed and said, " I know me either! "
😂 right!
Fun video!
Thank you 😊
Happy Nomadiversary!!!!
Thank you 😊
Nice one Thank you
Thank you 😊
Down load Ryan Hall Y’all….he is the best for severe weather, is always on live with warnings when there is bad storms
Thank you we will check him out!
We are 🇨🇦snowbirds and not used to tornadoes so Ryan Hall is the you tube channel we follow when traveling in the United States. He is awesome and also helps victims of these horrific storms. ❤️
Hey guys my favorite Family 👪 love your videos an all the cool places you go. Thanks for taking us along with you everywhere you go. It was fun seeing all the cool places 😊 your kids are getting big already . I remember when your sweet kids were little 😊 . Stay safe out there on the roads Take care God bless you guys 😊 keep the videos coming enjoy your weekend. Happy Memorial Day to you y'all ❤😊🇱🇷🇱🇷🎊🎊🍺🍺
Thank you so much! We love sharing our journey.
Nothing like a Green Mountain Grill we have the same grill. We also have the bigger one at home.
Thanks we are slowly learning how to use it!
@@LessJunkMoreJourney, the trick is... I clean ours with a vacuum about every three cooks. One other issues I feel is the pellets get moist if they sit long in the hopper. and it will seem to never get to temp... and what happens is because the pellets are damp they do not burn well and the auger overloads the fire pot and I have never had that problem as long as the pellets were fresh ...Steaks and ribs on that thing ....
I'm in Oklahoma and we are experiencing tornadic storms as I watch this. 👍🏽
Praying for you 🙏
Hey, I was at San Jon, New Mexico (time stamp 12:33) back in mid March. It's a free town boondocking campground.
That’s awesome 👏🏻
Thank you for your videos!!!!! What workouts do you use that were shown in the background on your video? Thanks!
I love the MadFit workouts on CZcams
Marissa I have big feet too, but I’m 5’9” so I need big feet to stand stable. My mom used to tell me that I’m standing firm on the ground because of my feet! 😂
They’re good for balance 😅
Girl, how did your instant pot get crushed?? lol!!!! Just kidding. My nephew and his wife are full time RV’ers and are traveling now. We miss them when they’re on the road but we know they are having a great time. I love your videos. Thank you, for sharing.
Thank you so much for watching 🥰
You don't have big feet, try having a size 15 shoe size.... We have indoor Crocs for times we are inside. It's also good protection from stubbed toes.
I guess I meant for a woman 🤣
We love your content. Keep it coming. Who cares if you have big feet. lol. You’re totally normal.
Thank you 😅
the random tooth thing was hilarious... lol
😂😂😂
GOD BLESS YOU GUYS LOVE YOU ANNAMAY
Thank you 😊
I remember you anxiously looking for the northern lights in Alaska and Canada and you come home to your own backyard and see the lights.
Yes! Crazy!
We live in our rv with 2 grandchildren and its not camping anymore for sure..
No it becomes just living life differently.
I honestly don't like smoked meat but love cooking over a fire. I have done this well over 50 years but it's getting harder because of "Fire bans" more and more.
Yes that is a struggle.
❤
🥰
I remember when you had an issue with the front part of your Grand Design. I was looking back to see it again and couldn’t find it. Was that anything to do with the frame flex and what did you do for the repair?

I saw a video about people finding random teeth in their house and no explanation. Did you find out whose it was? Cute video!
It was one of Hensley’s she lost.
How often do you go out exploring? Do you designate full days for that or do you have half work/school and half exploring?
We try to have a work life balance, sometimes we are on the road the road for 6-8 weeks at a time.
Girl, You need a bigger platform when you're carrying all that AWESOME!! That's what my daughter says and she's a size 11!
😂😂😂 good point!
Marissa, is there anything you feel like the kids don’t get from homeschooling that you have to supplement? Whether that be from the curriculum itself, the fact that all kids are different learners, being on the road, or just in general?
I feel like this curriculum along with real life experiences provide our kids with even more education than they would get in a traditional school setting.
My brother is selling his RV Trailer...my Mom wants to sell a truck perfectly capable of towing it....and I keep doing the calculations on how to make it possible, given I'm a few years out from retirement.
Hope you can make it work?
Ryan Hall y’all on CZcams for any storm watch live. He is great.
Good tip!
YES, YES, YES follow Ryan Hall!!! He and his fantastic team have been credited with saving lives, in particular when storms go unwarned, or take unexpected turns. They also help people after severe weather events thru their 501C3, supported by their listeners. And Ryan posts quick updates and forecasts for days and even weeks prior to severe weather events! He is extremely accurate.
I always pray for you guys and your property when I see that Cookeville might be affected. I'm very glad to see that you had a safe place to be during that storm! 🙏❤️🤗❤️
Best weather guy is Ryan Hall Y’all. He covers the storms better than anyone. Thanks for the great videos!
Thanks for the tip!
You don't have "big feet", you just have a "good understanding".
😂😂😂
Great video, but who's tooth was it ??? 😄❤
It was one of Hensley’s she had lost.
@@LessJunkMoreJourney Thanks 😊
I have those exact same shoes, same colors, and they are huge 11:41 ! Makes my feet look gigantic too, but it’s because they have such a big base. Let’s go with that! (wink) 😊
😂😂😂
wait, are you saying that apple's weather app doesnt show weather alerts? android has been doing that for as long as i can remember
They just started to I guess we are behind 😅
@@LessJunkMoreJourney im not surprised, every time i use an apple device, i find something else that needs improvement
