I know this is a giant pain in the ass, but you will end up with something so incredibly nice and customized to your lifestyle. I am fully onboard with this journey and cannot wait to see the finished product.
Thanks for this comment! With mom and dad on the job I think we’ll be able to get it done!
The way I see it, the more you remove, the more you and especially your dad have the ability to make things absolutely perfect!
Love your parents! You are so blessed to have them. I am confident that the travel wagon will be stunning because you have you dad leading the project. Merry Christmas!
I love Leah's True Earth speel. It's just so humble and funny. I also use True Earth for my laundry.
Hahaha she’s developing a style at this point 😅🥰
I love it!! Can’t wait to see that trailer getting in shape!!
And the tree from your backyard??? Whattt! that’s the dream!!!
What's really cool is that Frankie isn't old enough but he'll have the videos to experience picking a Christmas tree and rebuilding the trailer!! Merry Christmas and Happy New Prosperous year ahead 2024!!! Love and hugs to both parents and friends helping you guys out❤❤❤❤❤I know my searly departed in laws were so amazing the first couple months!!!!!😊😊
Thanks so much for being here! We’re documenting these special moments and it means a lot to have you guys here for that journey 🥰
Leah, you absolutely crushed the sponsorship 🎉🎉🎉 Proving it can be used while still in the grip of post-birth breastfeeding custard brain is a great advert for how simple it is to use. Guy and Jean are the best parents and I hope you know how blessed you are to have them, they are the best. I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas. Much love xxx
Hahaha thank you so much 😂❤
Yes, our adoption pickup trip, she was 4, but the size of a 2 year old. So much tiny clothes we had to wash in the tiny European under the kitchen counter washing machine (with only a drying rack next to a steam radiator in a weird open spot in the kitchen of the short term rental we were using.) That was 5 years ago this month, she just turned 10. Holy cow time flies.
It sure does! 🙈👀 thanks for sharing ❤️
Frankie watching you put the lights on the tree - absolutely beautiful 🥲 (also he looked kinda like he was chewing tobacco which added a certain swagger!)
Have a wonderful first Christmas with him ❤️
He certainly has some unique and peculiar expressions nowadays 😅
As someone who has had a lot of old vehicles with no way to play music you can buy converters (Canadian Tire might have them) that will play your phone through the radio via the cigarette lighter. It's a game changer!
The rebuild is going to be amazing; don’t fret the challenges and difficulties you’ve already faced, look forward to what an amazing camper trailer it’s GOING to be! Starting from true scratch gives you the ability to do anything you want with it - blank canvas! 👍🏻
Thanks Christian! We're pretty stoked 🥰
You seem so much more positive about the trailer refurb now your parents are helping. What great family time to tell Frankie about in the future x
Yeah we needed the help that’s for sure 🙏🏼❤️ good to have family
People "cobb-job" projects for all sorts of reasons(none of them good, in my mind). Sorry, you have to deal with more of the same. But when you are done it will be right and last a second lifetime. Crazy about the windows though. Keep, keepin' on! It's also a great, greater bonding experience too, a project.....thankful for your Dad's wood supply too! Hooray Levi's Dad! Chamomile tea for inflammation(make it hotter than normal and steam while sipping)and local honey not only helps with allergies, but sinus and colds(my experience). I say, as my source has been moved away from me locally, so on the hunt for another local to me honey source....sad. But grateful for bees!😊❤
My friend grew up camping(not traveling like you kids have and will do), but when she had a family and camped.... what did they use? The same trailer her parents had! Good bones, kept up last! Keep the faith, you kids have dreams, hope, love, family and hard work on your side....always!😊❤
That’s awesome to hear! If it’s treated well it should last a lifetime (or two)
Heads up they make “ac adapters” that you plug into your cigarette port and you can play Bluetooth music that way!
I used one when I had a smart car and they are super easy to find second hand on eBay!
Yeah, I think I have the same set-up in my 08 minivan. I use a Bluetooth speaker that I charge with a charger that goes in the cig lighter. It's a dual charger, has a cord for the speaker and one for my iPhone on the same charger.
For someone from a tropical country, a white Christmas and a REAL tree, it's truly magical. Happy holidays to you all. 🥰
We are super lucky to have the white Christmas experience 🥰❤️
I love Leah’s TruEarth commercial 😂. If I wasn’t already using it I would buy it immediately!
Merry Christmas :) The baby is so sweet! Wish you all happy holidays and all the joy that comes with it.
Happy holidays! Little by Little the trailer is getting there!
I love watching your videoes and look forward to many more.
To you and our families, Have a Happy Christmas and a Merry but Safe New Year!
Thanks being here! Happy holidays!
You guys are so adorable ❤❤ love yous!! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!! 🎄🎅
Merry Christmas you all! Fijne feestdagen en een gelukkig nieuwjaar ❤
Merry Christmas 🎄 love seeing progress on the trailer with family
Happy Holidays! Love the journey :)
Merry Christmas, you guys!
Merry Christmas to your little family 🎄 with love from New Brunswick!
Happy holidays everyone 👊🏿💜🥳
Merry Christmas! (If that’s your thing 😊)
😆 I was thinking you guys should recruit Johnny to help, looks like it went well! 😊
Merry Christmas to you and your family!!!
Great to see you all having fun together. Great Christmas tree for Frankie's first Christmas :)
Happy holidays Donna! Hope you and the family are doing well 🥰❤️
Merry 🎄 Christmas
Merry first Christmas with the bambino!
This series reminds me of the age old question; how many boards of a ship do you need to replace before it's a brand new ship? Lol like I feel like this is just... a trailer build
Yeah at this point we’re just building a brand new trailer from scratch 😅
13:19 the Becel container for the screws SENT me - v. Canadian
Haha oh yeah there’s a bunch of classics around dads shop😅
Another very enjoyable video. Very best wishes to the 5 of you. Allan in Tokyo.
Thank you! You too! ❤️
Everything will be just what you want, but bonus is that you will understand EVERYTHING about how it was put together. And when it comes time to maintain it or make alterations, that knowledge will be worth gold!
That’s the idea exactly! 👍🏼
Another successful ✨Leah's Unhinged Ad Read✨!
Merry Christmas!! See ya next year.
Yesssssss! 😅🥰 glad you liked it
hire some of that shit out haha. My husband and I used to reno old houses together and that was such a game changer for us. Did I spend hours and hours drywalling our house myself? yes. was it still lumpy. yes. Some stuff is just cheaper and more time efficient if you hire a professional who does it on the daily. Frankie is looking chonky and beautiful! Also love the Leah ads haha.
Hahaha yeah it’s something we’re realizing is going to be needed. 🙈 but as you said well end up with a better product at the end of the day too
This video is making me want to start on our vintage trailer restoration
Don’t buy one from Robert 😂
@@LeahandLevi 😂
I want this fridge now.
We have a discount code coming!
I have a rule about no Enya in the car. Makes me too sleepy! 🤣
CDs are a great way to go, although you may be able to find a new head unit with a screen to accomodate a back-up camera as well as Android Auto / CarPlay. Good investment if you're going to be travelling much at all.
May 24.... hmmm AM - BISH - US!!
Cheers!...from North Vancouver
No way did that truck spend time in Ontario. Yahoo BC ! Great looking truck.
Someone needs to invent a nursing seat belt. I remember terrible drives with hungry babies.
3:32 you can get an FM transmitter and use that LOL
JBL mini speaker, sounds great! And very cheap! 😎😎
Is this the Trailer of Theseus? When does it go from restoration to building a trailer from scratch? Good luck and happy holidays!
Hahaha that’s a great question 😅🙈
Loved the TrueEarth spiel. But why-o-why did you put that worse-than-Costco tinsel on that pretty tree??? Kinda undoes all the back-to-the-earth vibe of getting a tree from your land. (don't ask why I'm willing to overlook the blinking lights - seem natural enough to me!). Merry merry, all.
After watching this I will not be buying a used camping trailer I will be buying something new. Also enjoyed your trip I saw a lot of the highway that I always see from my semi truck including Cache Creek husky truck stop
haha yeah that highway is used by a lot of folks! I'm glad you're going with something a little newer lol
Wouldn’t you want a fridge to go under a countertop? I’ve used both the chest fridge and a door fridge. In a trailer I’d definitely pick a door fridge personally. But to each their own of course.
Levi explained in the video one of the reasons they wanted a chest style fridge was that it’s easier to get in and out of. Also it has wheels, they could pull it out from under a counter and put it back when they’re done.
@@sailorbrite yes I noticed that. I was just surprised since that wasn’t my experience.
Yeah we’ll see what happens but the idea was to put it under the counter with a drawer to pull it out?
Awwww. that baby cry. I miss it.
I remember the "portable" days when my son was an infant --- they actually require a lot less "attention" and entertaining traveling than when they get older and there's that whole wonderful period where an atom bomb could go off and they don't even hear it ... we would pop our son in the middle of a table at the busy, noisy pizza parlor in his car seat/carry seat and he'd happily sleep through dinner (once HE was fed, of course) ... it was great. Of course, they DO require a lot of "stuff" to go anywhere, but that's a given.
That sounds LOVELY. Haha
Question about the Bigfoot, are the overhead ceiling supports original or are they the ones your father made?
We installed them in an earlier video! 👍🏼
What are your thoughts on the pva in the tru earth strips and other companies like it? Also lol at Johnnys single, where are the comments asking for his number I was expecting 🤣
From my understanding the PVA study was conducted by a competitor brand without the ingredient in their products to disparage its use. A lot of detergents today have it and it’s considered safe.
Johnny doesn’t know that I posted this actually so well have to see haha
Omg I’m sooo late
Removing something in order to fix it can like a backwards step, but in reality, they're all forward steps
Please send Johnny to Victoria! 😂 I have about 5 incredible besties to introduce him to! 💘
(Not all at the same time. This isn’t the Bachelor lol.)
Hahaha well that’s a good distinction 😅
❤
Hope sushi also makes great fried chicken!
Come onnnn guys. If you're out in public while you're sick, mask up. Especially in a small space like the ferry. It's the holidays. No one wants your germs.
Maybe they don’t care if they spread virus and sickness to others? Just a thought. Somehow I’m not surprised.
We clarified in an earlier response but we were infectious at this stage. It had been over a week since we got sick
You could have built your own trailer from scratch at this point 😂
Great video as always but the clickbait is really getting a bit much tbh
Yeah sadly the videos just don’t get clicked otherwise 😔😢
What… you can't feed and drive at the same time?
Trucks are so much better for road trips. Much more comfortable and you basically have unlimited space to put stuff. And they are much safer. My wife and I take all our trips in my truck
We've been tempted to continue the journey with my wife breastfeeding... But it just never been worth the risk, litereally risking it all to save 30 mins
Geez Louise, it seems like bare bones just keeps getting more and more bare!
I find it interesting that people try to shame people for traveling while sick (not covid) when almost every work place in America expects you to come in to work if you’re not completely incapacitated (and the healthcare industry is the worst offender). The people in any store? Working while sick. People in restaurants? Working while sick. Guess these people who want to shame people for continuing to choose paying their bills and putting food on the table are stay at home moms/workers or so rich they don’t have to worry about working.
Agreed! They're all the "new, kinder" socialists. It's only doable if the government gives them someone else's hard earned money -- so it's really not even "sustainable", to use their preferred language. Sigh. They also think wearing masks actually helps.....
also if you are sick the road trip is atleast better than in a plane. It's your own space.
Couldn’t you just bring a Bluetooth speaker in the truck?
Yeah we don’t have one but maybe Santa will give us one 🤷🏻♂️🙏🏼❤️
The way you picked up that child in the restaurant was frightening. His head snapped back as he had no support.
whats with this clickbait title lmao
The thing is RSV, flu and covid are still going around . Yet you go on the ferry sick and possibly infect others . You could postpone your trip or at least wear a mask/stay in your vehicle . Not very conscientious of other people, and or their health ?
You don’t know their circumstances. Perhaps they couldn’t postpone.
Not actually allowed to stay on the vehicle decks in BC. The largest quantifiable studies have basically come to the conclusion that wearing masks doesn't make any appreciable difference in transmission, although avoiding sustained close contact is still potentially helpful and recommended -- I saw lots of empty seats around them from the video...
We clarified in an earlier comment. We were 10 days post infection with lingering symptoms. We felt like our infectious stage had passed.
Traveling while sick and infecting people along the way.
That’s what I was thinking , at least wear a mask and don’t infect others . Stay in your vehicle …
You can't stay in the vehicle in you are at the ferry 😉@@Moms1958
Come off it people! No wonder the world is going the way it is. There’s going to always be sick people just get over it for gods sake!
To clarify, we had a cold 10 days previously and our symptoms were unchanged for days so we felt like our period of being infectious had passed. We agreed as a family that we would take the risk coming to visit. And sadly, you can’t stay in your vehicle on the ferries.
@@Noniinthebushperhaps there could less sick people if a bit more consideration and caution was used. Maybe that is what is wrong with the world. Too little consideration of others. It doesn't take much to help decrease the spread of your own illness. A mask, proper hygiene, distance, avoiding being in public spaces when ill are all simple easy options and you can pick and choose and maybe save someone else from getting sick.
