“God’s got this”..... How true that is... Love it!!🥇🏆🥇
Yes indeed 🙏🏼🙌🏼
So very thrilled that you are honoring God in all you do!!! I look forward to spending some time in Heaven with you!!!
I just want you to know you are a joy to watch. Strong women are rare on this platform. God speed in all thing and please keep making videos. Best. Saylor the artist.
Love it. He listens. He rescues. He loves and cares for you. Thank you for the tour.
The end made me wanna cry . You guys did a great job! You’ve got wonderful parents. You radiate their goodness and love 💕.
Your Dad did an awesome job with your assistance. You are so blessed. God is good!
Van tour! 🥳
You and your Mom and Dad did an amazing job! I love the van's name! ❤
Thanks so much Grant! I’m glad you’re happy with the name! 🙌🏼
I was sooo excited that you mentioned God, your Bible and praying. It really made me smile ☺. You go girl!
i love how she has a busy life but still makes time for god
🙏🏼 Always!
Don’t forget, Spiritual exercise is good for this life and eternity, physical exercise is good for this life. 1Tim.4:8
I’m soon to be 81 and still riding my mountain bike on single tracks. God has been good to me, not because I deserve it but, His love, mercy and grace.
So happy you have no more leaks
Me too! Thank you!
😩😭😭😭why did I get so emotional at the end when you revealed the name? 😭😭😭😭😭 I love you and am so proud of you my sweet friend!!!!!
It’s a big moment! Thank you for all your support and encouragement friend. I love you toooooo!!
Many smart, independent and talented ladies are living in a van.
You did a great job But.....you might want to think about an enclosing those batteries, and make sure there is enough ventilation for them, and the inverter. It should have an internal fan but without ventilation it will not help much. I work with them for a living so i just want to keep you safe. Remember, the more power you use the warmer your whole setup will get, especially during summer. I think the van is great, i could live in it comfortably myself with how you have it set up. If you are ever in PA near Hershey Park give me a shout, i can tell or show you some fun places to visit!
Ty🌿
So happy for you!!! Congrats
Love your van built! 👍👏💖🎉
Thank you! 🤗
Totally respect what you have one and what you do. Good luck on your journey x
Lovely van set up you have Allison. It is very cosy inside there and I simply love you big chunky furry pillows. Stay safe and God bless you 🙏🙏
I love it! Happy Travels 💜
It looks great!!!
Love it. Picking ideas as watching your ideas
Cool !!!
“God gots this “ Amen!!🙏 may the most high Jesus Christ of Nazareth bless you!🙏 Your van is beautiful build ..... love it!👍🏼👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I think maybe the simplest thing for the privacy curtain is to put another small curtain right above it. I like your channel. You seem genuine in your videos. Careful with your thumbnails though. Stay safe out there.
I actually fixed it already! I took the wire hanger down and replaced it with eye hooks and a bungee. It's working much better now!
The Van is Great!! Thanks for sharing!
Impressive! Happy travels!
Been following you for a while now. Great job on the van conversion. Have a great time traveling the country. Looking forward to more videos.
I LOVE 💕 the van’s names and the meaning behind them..... Keep GOD first and enjoy #vanlife!
Love it🥰
Oh Allison - the van is just beautiful and fabulous. You, your Mom and Dad should be so proud. I absolutely love the color scheme. It is cheery and bright with that lush blue. It just looks so great - and I love the name(s). God bless you and keep you safe my friend!
I love the fact of that you reference God by asking him for direction and guidance in your van journey. I too have done the same. I'm waiting for my van to be delivered and can not wait for what he has in store for me. I hope that I can help someone and inspire someone along the way as you have inspired us. Blessings to you and your wonderful parents who helped along the way. ☺☺🙏🙏🙌🙌🎊🎊
I am so happy for you, you deserved some more space. You’re so inspiring, always so happy and upbeat. Keep going!
Nice!!! I love your journey
So cool!
Thank you 🙏🏼
Y'all did a beautiful job! I love it! Thank you for being so inspirational and down to Earth!
Thank you so much! I appreciate your kind comment!
I love your channel it makes me feel better when I watch it God bless you
You are an inspiration!
Nice!
Suggest: velcro tab (hook side) near the privacy curtain wire, attached between the two cabinets, onto the black trim right where the ?screw? is. Then, on the hem/rod sleeve of the curtain, at the midpoint of the curtain, place the loop side of the velcro. Then when privacy is wanted, pull curtain and velcro up the saggy bit.
I love all of your storage!!! All that hard work (sweat and tears!) putting in that fiberglass top paid off - it looks SO good!
Great vid
Very impressed its wonderful
Great design and layout
Cool setup!
Having driven trucks with sleepers and sleeping at truck stops, I've had some experience before retirement. For heat there are diesel parking heaters, have your parking heater powered by a house battery isolated from the starting battery so if you run the house battery down you don't find yourself stranded. Solar panels and a jackery or goal zero will keep a chest compressor refrigerator running. A jet boil or sterno inferno gives boiling water for instant soup, mush, or hot beverage.
Nice job on conversation!
Love your van
Super cool. 😎👍
Crazy good❤
Her coming timing is splendid! She's hilarious!
I'm sure you meant comic timing, sabotaged by autocorrect again.😀
@@ex-engineer6657 thank you! Please help find an assassin for auto correct.
WHAT A GREAT JOB! BEAUTIFUL!!!
Thank you!
Awesome build 🙌
I like Aileen. Cause the struggle was real. Big hugs for your dad and mom and you.
It sure was! Thanks so much 🤗
I LOVE YOUR VAN BUILD
Looks good! Efficient use of space, not too cluttered, you can stand, cook, and most importantly you can go potty without leaving the van. On no wind days you can slowly finish painting.
that is a great buikd. very useful use of all your space. i am impressed
Yay!! I just recently finished watching all the van renovation videos and I’ve been wanting to see the full tour so bad! It looks awesome!! Great job!!
Yay! Thank you!
Very nice.
You and your Dad did an amazing job of utilizing every bit of space for ease and practicality as well as making it look great! Happy trails!
Thanks so much!
Ok, now i can back track and watch what I skipped. Had to watch start to finish of your van build. Very inspiring. My nest has been empty for awhile, my grandkids come and go, but i long to hit the road and be in a comfortable home while i go look for myself. Thank you for sharing.
