4:15 - 5:06 i loooooove how patient he was, even if there was so much more to do!
I have binged watched so many of your videos! and his is my first comment...I teared up watching dad help his daughter go through her things...it's such a small thing but every child deserves parents as patient and loving as you guys! your kids are so blessed to have you as you are blessed with them!! I am so inspired by you guys in how to treat my own children and to seek adventure and experiences with my family!!

I agree with Stacy. Your patience and love comes through in all of your videos. Even when you are in the middle of a topic and one of your kids asks you something, you stop and listen to them and answer their question without any big sighs or eyerolls (haha) or "hold on just a minutes". You put them first, which is incredible. I'm also so impressed by how you interact with each other as spouses. Even when you are at the most stressed, you don't seem to take that stress out on each other. I've also got to say your kids are amazing. I love seeing how loving they are with each other. Your older kids take after your example and are already demonstrating how wonderful they will be as parents. I see Elijah and Esther carrying the little ones around all the time. It's heartwarming. You are doing things right. Thanks for sharing your lives with us.

should she pretend that Chinese children are not adopted? how? you can clearly see the difference :)
Would love for you guys to make a video addressing the bigger picture of how you planned and executed your plan to sell your home, lease, RV, what kind of careers you had that you can leave your jobs, save for and ensure you have enough money to subsist on, etc. I'm in awe of how you're pulling this off. Enjoy your channel.
Eve is so cute! She must be a blessing!
Came back to watch where it all began. Can’t wait to see your new adventures on your RV Trip 2.0!👍🏻🥰
Dec 2021 and I haven't watched some of your older videos. I actually found you a few videos before you sold this trailer. I have always watched your videos weekly and you are one of my favorite channels to watch. I follow you on instagram as well. Love seeing your kids grow up and its wholesome entertainment. I don't watch tv. Watching your family gives me a sense of connection to people since I"m a home body mostly but especially during the fall and winter in Washington state. I am currently binge watching your old videos and crocheting on my blanket. Everyone has changed so much over the years. ❤️😀
Just found your channel. You guys are awesome. We have a few things in common as well. We are quiet a bit older but we are also LDS and we have 8 children (4 homemade and 4 adopted). The youngest are now in college. Time flies....enjoy every minute!!!!

New subscriber here, and I have no words to say how amazing you guys are ! I pray to God give you both long life , health and much more to inspire and open all the people hearts to be compassionate and less selfishness. God is great!
I love Eve! I have a granddaughter with Downs Syndrome and she is our blessing!
I love how you have 9 kids and it doesn't stop you from going on an adventure of this magnitude! I hope you have a wonderful 18 monts!
So understand about get rid of things. My husband and I have been RVing full time for almost a year. This last week I went through the trailer and boxed up things that we haven't touch this last year. So much for "I ready need it" amazing what you can live without. Love our tiny home and thank God for this opportunity. Happy trails guys!
so exciting and soooo beautiful! Such a brave journey with 9 little ones. I love every minute of it with you! Thanks for inspiring us!
I want an entire episode of Eve rolling her eyes. Capture it before she stops doing it! So excited to watch you guys and definitely planning to meet up somewhere along the route. And don't put baby in a corner (dance in every video)!

We are literally just starting to downsize getting ready to move in to our Rv full time quiet draughting, but watching your videos for the last month really has helped us. Have a truly bless life love the Core Family 😘
Thank you for posting this! Not everyone posts the process of moving into a smaller space and this was great!
I've been watching you guys for a couple of months now, how am I just watching the first video?! I love how you've remodeled the fifth wheel to make it feel like home. You really did a wonderful job with the decor!
the amount if patience you both have is inspiring.
You are truly inspirational, the way you focus on what's important and find ways to stay calm and let the rest go. Amazing 😀
Binge watching your videos! You guys are having the best time of your loves and you guys are amazing in every way. Godbless you and the kids they're all perfect.
This showed up in my feed. I hadn't watched it yet. From then to now, you guys have seen so much and grown so much! You are world travelers now 🌍
Your kids are so sweet!! You're right, they're happy sounds!!
I came here because of This Gathered Nest (she's amazing btw) and I'm so happy I did! I can't wait to see more of your family adventure!

I think that's how I came across them too... around the same time. Burt I think I failed to subscribe and just came across them again last week. Binging to get caught up.
Omg, I've been watching this awesome Family for quite awhile now and can I just say Megan and Mike are just the coolest and loving parents! I only had 1 brother and 1 sister,and my parents weren't so great unfortunately...what lovely people
I can see your babies love you both so much ! Wow how lucky you're family is to have all of this love . I can not get enough of watching all of the great journeys that each if you head into. I am so happy I found your channel I wish you guys had a television show now this would be something millions would. and could watch. God really knows what he is doing this is just another example of the great love he has for us.
You guys are just great, amazing and cool and I am at loss of words... I feel like I have trouble keeping my life together and you do THIS with NINE kids - I have only admiration for you! We need more people like you in this world :)
I have watched all of your videos and you have given me so many ideas for the future. Also, I love your kids so much, they are so cute and caring. You guys are such great parents and can't wait to see more!
Way to go you two. It is past my ability to do this but what a super thing to do for you two and your kids!
Ok, I'm going to defend Dad here about wiping the kisses. LOL Obviously he is a very loving, caring, and engaged DAD! As a Mom, I had to get used to my youngest son just not liking to be kissed on like my older one did. He doesn't give kisses, he offers his cheek to you (to this day and he is now 18). It's just his thing. Kudos to this WHOLE family going on an adventure together. The memories you're creating as a family are PRICELESS! Can't wait to see your adventures and may God bless you with a safe and fun journey!
so excited to see your adventure, you have a lovely family and are a pleasure to watch. thanks for sharing
Eve loves her daddy....I love how you 2 treat all your kids equal
This is Amazing doing this journey with your children! I am Van Camp Traveling with 2 pups across America. I subbed!
With all those kids. Good Luck!
Have no idea how I found your lovely channel but I'm so happy I did !! You guys are awesome and I just binge watched a bunch of your vids all day. I'm now so driven to both adopt one day and live in an RV, I've had the idea of doing both but watching you guys actually execute it so well really inspired me. Hope you are all having an amazing adventure so far. -Emily
We are in the process of saving up for a motorcoach and getting out on the road. We don't have children, but I am disabled and we have 2 puppies. We entertained the thought of a 5th wheel, but knew if we had a motorcoach, the puppies and I would always have our home available. I have drawn so much inspiration from y'all because if 9 children and 2 parents can live in this small a space, so can we! Our decision was based on the need to see loved ones and my limited time left. My mantra is, if I'm uncomfortable, I may as well be with loved ones and seeing the country too!! Thanks for the videos, inspiration, and helping us find a positive life change!! ❤
You guys are inspiring in so many ways. Looking forward to more videos of your journey. All the best and keep it up. Hi from Melbourne Australia.
I have only seen few of your videos so far but I absolutely love you guys! Everyone in your family seems so polite and I just love your attitude towards everything in life! Even when things go wrong you seem to keep your cool! I thing what you are doing is absolutely awesome! Keep on traveling and maybe come to Minnesota sometime when its not -20 out! Its actually quite beautiful out here!! :)
Safe and happy travels to all of you!
Eve is so cute. What a darling!
This video was filmed months ago, but I'm just viewing it now......did you rent a storage facility for all the stuff you will need when you are done RVing and moving back into a house?
I just found your channel. Looking forward to watching the rest of your videos. Hubby and I think about living in an RV fulltime from time to time. You all make it look so easy (so far). We too have a 3000sq foot home, 5 bedrooms, however we only have 4 kids. Thanks for sharing!
what a cute house... must have been hard to leave, but what an adventure it opened up!
This is the first video I've watched of yours, so excited to watch more! I love the family already! I absolutely love the "seek" sign you made and all of your decor! It's beautiful!!
Aww y'all came to my town in Lynchburg,VA. How cool!
Watching your new videos compared to these older videos is so fun. Something your family can look back on for years to come. BTW... God knew you were meant to be Eves mom with the dance moves in this video lol. God bless you guys and safe travels xoxo
You guys are great!! Can't wait to see more!!
Gettin down to basics, SO, SO hard to do. I love your family, your lifestyle would be such a life saver for SO many families, if they were just able to do it!
Just found your channel today. Looking forward to watching your journey unfold. Great video, thanks for sharing! And that Eve of yours is such a cutie-pie! All kisses, snuggles and smiles 💗 You have a beautiful family. Best wishes and many blessings to you all on your journey.
Your daughter is sweet! Can't wait to follow your journey
Wow what a transition and with 11 kids no less. Good luck on your adventure! :D
This is the second video I've watched from you guys and I love you already. Please never stop uploading!

Love this. Many blessing.
Just hit Subscribe because I, like many others, are amazed you guys are doing this. And so many funny bits and fun to watch! And this whole time I thought we were the only ones who fought while the washing machine is running! Such a weird coincidence....
Bravo to a brave family's new adventures and a lifetime of memories!
I am so psyched to watch your journey!!!!! We are a family of 11 (at home anyway.. we have 3 who grew up and LEFT US!) and I would absolutely LOVE to do this at least during a few summers with our clan. I am going to live vicariously through you as we pack our family and move to CA this coming summer!

I'm so glad I found your channel!
Just started watching your videos love seeing what you and your family get up to xx
Forgot to add to my comment that I have subscribed to your adventure and I am looking forward to following it. Looks like great fun will be had by all. Good luck. Enjoy
you guys are Awesome... God Bless your tour..
You people are great parents you two love and respect each other putting god first in your life is the key to true happiness
oh my goodness! that looks like it would ve amazingly fun! of course my hubs spent the last 30 years as a truck driver so this would be something him and our kids would LOVE. I think I would last MAYBE 2 weeks. I have to have my own space every few days to decompress lol. not sure I could do that in an RV. however it would be so much fun on the other hand!
Could you guys do a video on how you planned this trip? All of the "behind the scene" things that went on to make the trip happen, such as financially, buying supplies, planning a route, etc? If you could make a video like that, that would be awesome!!
God bless you on your journey......Amazing!
❤ living small(er) feels so good!❤
New subscriber! Your videos are so inspirational and love the humor too! I'd love to hear how you planned/saved for such a journey (wo being too detailed). Just the thought process and how you know you'll be okay financially to be away from work that long😊

I wish that all of the videos were numbered so that I can watch them in order. Love the Knorpp Family and wish you all wonderful Blessings as you get to go on your new travels! It must have been a HUGE Shock to move from the huge house into the RV! ❤️🐱🐈
Hi guys! My husband and I live in our RV as well. We downsized from a 4000 sq ft house to a 250 sq ft Class C RV. I'm sure we haven't faced anything like you and your HUGE family will. My husband is from a big family as well. He is #2 of 10. Good luck to you. I'm excited to join you on your journey.

+"C" Our RV - man! Then you know exactly how crazy it is! But so liberating too!
Y’all are champs.
This is so funny, I'm just watching random RV videos and I hear you all mention Lynchburg, VA. I hope you like the area Monticello is a bit north of hear in Charlottesville but there are a TON of interesting historical spots closer by. If you are still in the area you might want to check out the Old City Cemetery in Lynchburg. It's BEAUTIFUL and full of history. Enjoy your travels.
WOW ! My hat is off to you Guys ! Just subscribed, and viewed a couple of your videos. I see your from the state we live in. We are planning to make the move as you did, but our kids are grown. We look foreword to your future videos !
Great video. Thank you.
You guys are super precious!!!!! May our Good Lord Bless You!!!
I love the dancing in the beginning of the video.
Currently going through the "de-junk" process, two weeks till we are moved out of our home and into the RV!! Can't wait till we pick up our RV Tuesday so we can start moving stuff in and figuring out how to organize it all! Dish rack on the wall, genius! Loving being able to watch your videos, giving us lots of insight to our very near future! Eve is adorable! Let us know when you are heading to Florida!

Knorpp and South I'm wondering if each adopted child is now eligible for SSI and disability, which would help for sure
5th wheel is an old term, it comes from the pivot point from the front axle of a 4 wheel wagon, in the days when a horse(s) were used to pull the wagon. More recently Semi's use the name for the hitch portion of the system. So it goes for 5th wheel RV's.
Such a beautiful family! It's going to be a blast watching you guys (;
You were so brave.
Gosh everyone has been watching you for years. I just found you recently and have been trying to catch up. So much fun watching your beautiful family grow up. I homeschooled 2 of my children so understand how that all works. Have to been down under yet?
Eve is so adorable!
Hello Knorpps just watched your first video really like it. Funny dancing💃. Looking forward to see more of you. Greetings from Austria 🙋
Man, thats one big RV!
i adore yall and your big beautiful family...
“While we run the washing machine (wink wink)” So funny! I’m a future sub and just had to go back and see where it all started!
Are all the children adopted what an amazing couple new subscriber x
Lol, dad stop wiping off those kisses!!! Mum love the dancing!
I love that you guys just popped up in my email as a KZread I should subscribe to!! 😉 Love you my friend. Let me know when you come through Houston and please stop by for a visit, swim, and BBQ!
Impressed!
Only on word comes to mind BRAVE, enjoyed your video. and sub.
SO COOL!
Only just found your channel, love it, love both your sense of humour, But OMG what a challenge to take on, keep up the good work, safe travels. You'll know this by now but the fifth wheel is on the bed of your Dodge truck which connects to the fifth wheel pin under your trailer.
Can't believe I won't see you guys at girls camp this year!!! I hope you have fun on your journey!

+Miriam Needles - I know. Sad!
I'm so excited to follow your journey! And can't wait for you to come up this way! Megan! I did the Konmari Method for my clothes, as well, and then I also applied capsule wardrobe principles, and got my clothes down to a SUPER minimum! What I recommend you do now, is take what you have and chose ONE neutral color, or TWO if they work together: Black, Navy, Brown, Grey. Then pick ONE or TWO accent colors that work with your neutral(s) AND each other. Make sure those colors look great on you and you love them, and you'll end up with a perfect, minimal wardrobe. I had cut my wardrobe several times, but still had tons of clothes. I realized it was because I had three different wardrobes (a black set, a navy set, and a brown set, plus all the coordinating accent colors). I decided on Black, Grey, White, and Blues (so I didn't have to shop after clearing out, I kept everything from royal blue to turquise to peacock). Everything coordinates, so literally everything can be paired together. Deciding on the colors and then being ruthlessly strict about cutting everything else takes away those tons of mini-decisions. And now my drawers look empty, but I have tons to wear. :) And I still kept a workout wardrobe! Much easier on the brain! Hope this helps!

I am amazed that you were able to downsize that much as we all live in a world of 'stuff'. Obviously you have realized there is more to living that supporting department stores. Now, HOW IN THE WORLD will you keep a family this large entertained when a short road trip normally drives adults batty with small children ???? Someone must be super organized, since in RV everything has to have a place and after use it has to go back to it. To keep a home this small and home school is truly a testament to your commitment to instilling a better life. I look forward to future episodes of this adventure you are on.
