Austin, TX

The last time these two met they were both about 6 months old. A little more than a year later, we're finally camping with @mastermarx and @margaretleonard. Plus we get to meet and get to know @takethatexit. It's a mini-fulltime-family-Airstream rally in Austin! #littleairstreamfriends #airstream #airstreamwithkids #liveriveted #myrivetedlife #fulltimefamilies #butsomenonASfamiliescomingsoon!

Question: If a boy and a girl from two nomadic families form a lasting bond (primarily based on Paw Patrol) and end up getting married, do they go to live in the girl's parent's Airstream or the boy's parent's Airstream? I'm asking for some friends. Oh, and those friends are @mastermarx and @margaretleonard. #littleairstreamfriends #littleairstreamarrangedmarriage #airstreamwithkids #airstream #myrivetedlife #liveriveted #childhoodunplugged

There was no way to capture an evening of local Austin BBQ and beer around a campfire with @takethatexit, @takethatexit_jeremy, @mastermarx, @margaretleonard and @advodna_ann plus cameos from @thewhitegomez, @foreveraventura, @huckleberry_adam and @huckleberry_jenn, so here's a shot of the Airstream in some of the rare sun that made its way through an otherwise cold and windy day. The kids all had a blast and passed out, and I have a feeling the adults may make it back out to the campfire. #airstream #liveriveted #myrivetedlife @toyotausa #toyota #sequoia

The rule is only four stuffed animals allowed per child, but that only applies to those out on their bed. Occasionally, we dig behind the toy boxes under the lounge to reach the stuffed animal backstock, and it's like Christmas all over again! Still, if one comes out, one has to go in. We definitely find that rotating toys like this keeps things fresh and cuts down on clutter (mental and physical!). #tinyhouseliving #tinyhousewithkids #airstreamwithkids #rvwithkids #declutter #hoarderswithoutborders

While we're sharing #airstreamprotip 's, the awning helper pole makes a great carpet beater! #airstream #liveriveted #myrivetedlife #springcleaning

We made it out to Barton Springs with @mastermarx and @margaretleonard this afternoon. After half an hour letting the kids loose on the awesome playground, we wandered down to the river's edge below the pools.

Over a span of about 5 minutes, we all went from "No! Kids, don't get close to the water!" to "Well, okay, maybe just your feet..." to "I think we have emergency pants in the car" to "Toss me your undies." Naked babies everywhere. #herecometheleonards

While sitting on the bank taking in the spectacle in the beautiful light, all I could think about was the Simpsons episode where the kids decide to sneak into an R rated movie and run off chanting "Bar-ton Fink! Bar-ton Fink!" #childhoodunplugged #bartonsprings #austin #austintx #bartonfink

You know those Instagram pictures where people say they are working from their hammocks? Does it count if you're "working" on a maple bacon donut (yes, it's so gooey you have to eat it with a fork) from @gourdoughspublichouse? Don't worry, their food truck is - surprise, it's Austin! - a vintage Airstream.

And yes, that was after a dip in a hot spring-fed community pool (that we've been sworn to secrecy on 😉) and a shrimp tempura taco from the @mellizoztacos truck next door. Austin does not suck. #thestruggleisreal

But don't worry, the afternoon was all heartburn and laundry and car washes and gas and groceries 'cause we leave in the morning to join @rvlegend and @livingistheadventure for some beach camping near Corpus Christi!

Roadschooling is hard. @advodna_ann and Wynne have been doing a few workbook pages, the Texas State Park Jr. Ranger book and a bit from a chapter book each day. When Ann asks her if she wants another chapter, Wynne says "I want ALL of them!" Sorry for the double hammock post today, but it's the first time the weather has been good enough and our pace slow enough to enjoy it again!

@advodna_ann read somewhere that unsweetened cocoa was good for you and has, much to their delight, been mixing it into the kids' oatmeal in the morning. We call it "choatmeal." #yeahijustheardittoo #dontgooglethat #kidchocula #airstreamwithkids
