Thanks so much, everyone! I'm really glad that I started by asking you all who have more experience with this. I think I'm just finding the home ownership lifestyle to be extremely mundane. My kids don't seem to enjoy being in the house very much, and mostly it just seems like a waste of time and money. I do like the idea of maybe buying a smaller trailer and going camping every weekend/vacation. Ultimately though, I really want to sell the house. Maybe not live in an RV, but I think I would like to downsize and have much less land, or live in the woods. I know that 1700sf isn't considered large for a house, but to be honest, we only use about 1200sf of it at most, and that includes a playroom. I don't like heating or cleaning extra rooms. I guess I'm kind of a minimalist at heart.
By the way, I cannot fathom even bringing 12 children on a camping trip, let alone living in an RV with them! That's pretty impressive, and they must be incredibly organized.
Maybe I'll head over to the trailer forum and start looking into that idea :) thanks again and happy camping!
