First night in the rv

I wish I had pictures to share, but we are staying at the in-laws for the night in the rv. I am updating the blog with my phone - holding it by the window for more service too of course. :)
Everything went well today. We have the dolly for towing and the rv and we are getting settled into bed.
Goodnight from the Pathfinder!!

Today is the day!

We received our call yesterday afternoon that the hitch had arrived at the dealer and they were installing it. We would have tried to get there to pick up the RV, but we knew we also had to go get the tow dolly in another city and go through our "RV class." The dealer is going to go through everything with us on the RV so we know how it works.

So once James gets out of bed, we will be on our way to pick up the Pathfinder. Our new home on wheels. :)

Expect pictures soon!

Hitch ~ today?

2009-09-17T05:41:00.000-07:00

The dealer said there is an 80% chance that the hitch arrives and will be installed today. I hope so!! I can't wait until we have it here and I can start moving in and decorating it. I will be sure to post pictures once it's OURS! :)

Found a winner?!

We may have found our RV that's been waiting for us. I surely hope this is the one. I can't go through dreaming about moving into and organizing another one. :)

Introduction

2009-09-11T06:53:00.000-07:00

Welcome to my blog!!!

I have kept other blogs in the past, but I am feeling the need for a fresh start. I believe that life has some changes in store for me and my family (awesome ones at that), and I'd love to share these things with family and friends.

The first is that my DH, James and my baby girl, Val and I are planning to go to AZ for awhile this Fall. James has business partners there that he would like to work with, we'd like to go somewhere warm, and travel and possibly live in an RV during that time. My inspiration for this has come from Sara and her family's tour.

Our first obstacle is getting an RV. Yeah, I know, nothing like waiting 'til the last minute!! I'm feeling the pressure of it all, but I believe that the Universe will have the answers and give us just what we need when we need it.

Hopefully by Monday, we'll have closed on an RV! Stay tuned!
