Meet Winne!

Where Bohall family memories are made! For a few years now my husband and I have dreamed of owning a camper! I have longed for that experience to hit the open road and find the closest camp site and make those lasting memories our kids will never forget! 

This past weekend those dreams became reality as we took our "new" 1994 Winnebago Vectra out for a test spin at Starve Hallow, a park not far from us! Now, our dreams technically consist of a new travel trailer on a smaller scale however, when the "gettin is good" you get it, so that's just what we did...we came home with this beaut...
She may not look like much, compared to what's out there but her motor runs good and she's got amenities you wouldn't believe! Including my personal favorite...a radio on the outside with a table that pulls out! She's all that and a little more than what we need! 

It was beautiful weather!! And even Sawyer at nearly 7 months old loved it! Camping is definitely something we love! I can't wait till our next venture!

Here are a few more pictures of Winne..



And here are a few pictures of Sawyer! It's safe to say, he enjoyed himself also!



Soo...whose ready to go camping!???

Christ has RISEN!

Sawyer's first Easter has came and gone! And of course, all too quickly like everything else! :( Easter has always been one of my favorite holidays for obvious reasons and now being able to share that with our Sawyer was...AMAZING! I love that he will grow knowing the Lord and all the sacrifices that have been made so that he could live!
 
Here are a few pictures of our Easter holiday...
 














 
I hope you all had a blessed Easter holiday!

BEACH BABY!

Sawyer's first trip to ocean=complete! Though he is only 6 months and will have zero recollection of seeing the ocean for the first time, something inside of me LOVES being able to experience these "first" with my sweet baby boy! I am constantly looking forward to all the "first" that Daniel and I will have with Sawyer! I have to say it was a success! He was such a good boy and absolutely loved the sand! Here are a few pictures of his first time to the beach:)!

How To Survive A Road Trip With A 6 Month Old!

This past week my family including my Mom, Stepdad, Sister, her boyfriend, my husband Daniel, our sweet Sawyer, and myself traveled to Gulf Shores, AL for family vacation! While planning this trip, my biggest worry was how will my 6 month old handle the dreary 12 hour drive!?? Well good news is WE SURVIVED! Here are my top 5 tips for traveling a long distance with a little one!:)

1. Plan Ahead! Being prepared is a sure way to eliminate unnecessary stress! We planned to start our journey at Sawyer's 2nd to last feeding before bed time and drive thru the night. He ate his dinner at 6:00pm and we were on the road about 8:00pm (the time he lays down for bed) he usually sleeps for two hours and then eats again at 10:00pm and is out for the night! It seemed to work for us this way! Obviously every baby is different so adjusting times based on your baby's sleeping and eating habits are probably going to work best;)

2. Pack Accordingly!! I packed everything he could need including extra food, clothes, and diapers in the diaper bag to stay easily accessible. (This came in handy when he had a massive blow out on the way home and had to do a complete wardrobe change!) The rest went in the suit case stored on the luggage rack. 

3. Dress Comfy! Make sure baby is as comfy as can be! 
Here is Sawyer all comfy in his onesie and cotton pants:)

4. Make The Most Of Every Stop! We stopped when it was feeding time and filled up, stretched, bought junk food, etc,. Making the most of every stop insured spending the least time possible wasting time off the road!

5. Bring Entertainment! On the way home we got an earlier start which meant we had to entertain Sawyer a little more than on the way down. I packed plenty of toys but his favorite was his Nene's phone of course! ( 6 months and already loving electronics...We may be in trouble!!) He loved watching this video of a dog doing tricks for its owner! He watched it and laughed over and over! 

....passed out!! Haha 

Good luck on your next venture! Enjoy every moment!!😘💨

Have a BLESSED day!!
