@@celtic4033 love AZ so much! I’ve been 4x and the family has yet to visit. Can’t wait for them to experience it on our US adventure. Thanks so much for your friendship! We appreciate you! 💕❤️

[@SantosChronicles]

With Chris new found skills, I feel like your next step after the RV is create a log cabin from scratch un the winds. Showing my wife right now the before and after. Amazing.

[@TheLiveOutLoudFamily]

🤣🤣🤣 we just might have to do that- I’ll let him know you want to pitch him an idea Carl 🤣 hope you guys had an amazing 4th! 💕❤️

[@SomeplaceOrAnother]

That does make things cozy 🔥

[@TheLiveOutLoudFamily]

Thanks so much! Starting to feel like home! 💕❤️

[@Citystead]

Nice little touch for those cool nights

[@TheLiveOutLoudFamily]

Yes! Thanks so much! How are you and your cute fam? The kids must be excited for summer! 💕❤️

[@thetravelingbuddy6104]

Wow Chris your getting so good at this you could start a RV restoration business.

[@stewartshazminors9251]

It looks beautiful guys, well done 👍

[@TheLiveOutLoudFamily]

Thank you so much! Would love for you guys to see it in-person. 💕

[@pamelawaterman3960]

It does look beautiful. Can’t wait for the launch👍

[@TheLiveOutLoudFamily]

Thank you so much! We can’t wait either. We are debating on solar so we can get going earlier! Campgrounds are really booked up. We really appreciate you and always look forward to seeing you in the comments each week! Did you have a nice 4th? 💕❤️

[@pamelawaterman3960]

@@TheLiveOutLoudFamily I recommend solar it ,we have panels on our 5th wheel and we very seldom use our generator.

[@TheLiveOutLoudFamily]

@@pamelawaterman3960 that’s amazing! Do you boondock a lot? Did you get it professionally installed? Really appreciate your advice!

[@pamelawaterman3960]

@@TheLiveOutLoudFamily We usually boondock only going to rv parks for laundry and dumping of tank. My husband did the install with the help of KZbin🤣 but we have been using it for three years. But it’s just the two of us.

[@TheLiveOutLoudFamily]

That’s what we are hoping to do too! I’m hoping if we are pretty careful, because the kids are so little we could get away with it too! 💕❤️

[@chrisvanarsdall1643]

Amazing transformation!!! So beautiful! Next time we are out that way will need to stop!

[@TheLiveOutLoudFamily]

Please do! Anytime! We’d love to show you around and see you! 💕❤️

[@chasingadeline]

Wow that looks so nice!!! It does look more homey:)

[@TheLiveOutLoudFamily]

Thank you so much! Can’t wait to move in it full-time! How are you all?! 💕❤️

[@lifererouted]

Looking great guys! I really love how well all of this is coming together. "Just another day in Eagle" 😂😂😂

[@TheLiveOutLoudFamily]

Haha it’s pretty slow paced out here! 🤣 how are you guys? Just watched you last vlog and thinking of you! Man, what a crazy day!! ❤️

[@crazycutecritters2059]

Wow! Love it! Great job! 👍🏻

[@TheLiveOutLoudFamily]

Thank you so much! Will you be hanging o with your sister this summer? We all have to meat up at some point! It would be so fun to meet you in person!

[@crazycutecritters2059]

@@TheLiveOutLoudFamily Yes, we have been hanging out almost daily since I got back from Florida. She has been camping next to my house. We have a few adventures planned, it’s just been to hot to do anything outdoors.

[@TheLiveOutLoudFamily]

@@crazycutecritters2059 that’s so cool! I know! The heats getting to us too! 💕❤️

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Congrats on your fireplace! It looks like something straight out of HGTV! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@TheLiveOutLoudFamily]

Thank you so much! How are you guys doing?! 💕❤️

[@TilFurtherNotice]

Soooo beautiful!!!! This makes me happy and not just because I voted for the fireplace lol but because you are so close to joining us on the road!! You have transformed this RV into a stunning home for your family! So excited for you all 🎉🤗

[@TheLiveOutLoudFamily]

Thank you so much! Your beautiful RV definitely looks like a home, it’s so exciting ours is starting to feel that way too! Can’t wait to see you on the road! We are now contemplating solar so we can just get started and not have to wait on campground openings ❤️💕. How was your 4th? 💕❤️

[@TilFurtherNotice]

@@TheLiveOutLoudFamily good morning! Solar would be great! It’s on my list for future upgrades too! Did you find a truck?!

[@TheLiveOutLoudFamily]

Haha not yet- we’re trying to manifest it! 🤣 we’ve been looking!

[@TilFurtherNotice]

@@TheLiveOutLoudFamily I’ll be visualizing it fir you too 😉

[@TheLiveOutLoudFamily]

@@TilFurtherNotice thanks so much! We need all the help we can get 🤣💕❤️

Good job guys!❤

@@TheLiveOutLoudFamily 😊

[@SantosChronicles]

I really like how you put the after and show us how you got there!!! Mom for the win!!!! Great story telling and also keeping what the problem was. That is something I’m working in for our channel. So much work but it will totally be worth it.

[@TheLiveOutLoudFamily]

Haha thank you! I knew it would make it feel complete! We are trying to develop some sort of predictable format too- it can be so hard! Can’t wait to see how it works out on your channel! You always kill it with best practice. Always taking notes from you Carl! 💕❤️

[@AlwaysAnAdventureWithKids]

You're getting there!!! Sometimes it seems like you will never reach the finish line, but you will!! You guys should take it out for some trial runs before you go out full time. Then you can figure out if there is anything you want to change. I don't think our van will ever be done. It's a work in progress! Hope you're having a good summer and life is starting to feel more back to normal :)

[@TheLiveOutLoudFamily]

That’s a really good idea! We feel like we are thinking of everything but I imagine so much will come up! Things are starting to feel a bit more “normal” but definitely not like they were. Does your family here think the same? How are you guys? 💕❤️

[@PawsToJourney]

Wow! That turned out amazing! Definitely makes it extra home-y!

[@TheLiveOutLoudFamily]

Thank you so much! Did you and the first babies have a great 4th? 💕❤️🇺🇸

[@PawsToJourney]

@@TheLiveOutLoudFamily We did! We took our one dog Selene, and new kitty Loki on a walk during the fireworks. (Selene is okay with fireworks outside, not inside weirdly; and our other dog, Jezabelle is okay with fireworks if she's inside, but not outside LOL). How about you guys?

[@rafsworldtravel]

Such an upmarket addition to your RV space, but it’ll be so worthwhile when you’re holed up somewhere in the winter needing a bit of real and aesthetic heat to keep warm :)

[@TheLiveOutLoudFamily]

Thanks so much, Mart! I definitely think it was worth the time and investment - so far 😂 when will you post your next video? I’m Anxiously waiting for it! 💕❤️

[@GoandLove]

Absolutely gorgeous job!! And for WiFi, we used a “AT&T Nitehawk” with an unlimited data iPad plan and just took out the SIM card out of our iPad and put it into the Nighthawk and it was super fast internet (we often had speeds of over 100 upload) and only like $20/month or something like that when you do it through the iPad SIM card way 👍🏻👍🏻

[@TheLiveOutLoudFamily]

I have never heard this option!! That could be a game changer! Did it work well in remote areas when you all were van lifting it? So intrigued!! 💕❤️

[@TheLiveOutLoudFamily]

And thanks so much about the fireplace- knew it would transform the space - glad Chris finally agreed 🤣🤣🤣

[@GoandLove]

@@TheLiveOutLoudFamily yea, the only catch is that it only works where there is AT&T cell reception, so that is MOST of America… but there will be some areas where you just won’t have internet. Btw, you can’t just go into a AT&T store and talk about the iPad SIM card thing, I think it’s kinda a loophole that is also happens to work in the Nighthawk :) But the only other real option that we saw was to get horrible satellite internet that is super expensive and super slow and a super long contact. I think the Nighthawk is something like $300 at Best Buy… but we might have our old one laying around actually. Not sure how much and how long international shipping would be though 😩

[@TheLiveOutLoudFamily]

Haha that’s probably why I haven’t heard about it yet- love that ninja tip! You’re the best! I really appreciate that - I’ll look into this week! Thanks so much, Nick! 💕❤️

[@tinastheoutsider]

That looks amzing🥰🥰 I love it. Nomadic Fanatic n Crystal Vanner both have discounted links for that Nomad Internet..prices are like if u have a cable n internet package back at home (when we all had that) just for their wifi . Its probably better then my myfi box from Verzion. I can upload about 4 vids a month with it, I try n only use that for uploads. Still I have to go to family n friends house for more during month. Its only 30 gigs a month😲🤔

[@TheLiveOutLoudFamily]

Thanks so much! I’ll have to check that out- it’s been stressful using the internet out in the country, so I bet that would work better! I definitely feel your pain lol how was your 4th Tina?

[@tinastheoutsider]

@@TheLiveOutLoudFamily Those 2 channels have discounted links but it will still probably run ya $150 a month or so. Maybe less Idk. If I could afford it I would try it. I went to Sleeping Bear Dunes Sat n Sunday.

[@TheLiveOutLoudFamily]

Ahh that is pricey! 😳 will Still look into it though! Omg that’s so fun!!! Did you have a blast! I want to take the kids there! 💕❤️

[@tinastheoutsider]

@@TheLiveOutLoudFamily You all would enjoy it🥰

[@jennifervelazquez8834]

Does it work the rv ??? Is good for the winter??

[@TheLiveOutLoudFamily]

Yes! It’s been amazing! We have been using it for a year now and it really helps take the chill off and helps save on propane costs! Feel free to reach out if you have any questions!
