Should we really buy a trailer?? Help us decide!

Ok, so it has been a while since my last posting. We went camping a couple of weeks ago and it was quite the trip! It seemed like anything that could go wrong, did! We got to our campsite and things went pretty well until the night came and we went to bed. We woke up to the carbon monoxide detector going off! We finally got it to stop after about 20-30 minutes of messing with it. The next morning it went off again, and we figured out that we had the generators turned the wrong way and the exhaust from them was coming right into the trailer. So we got that problem fixed. Well the next day, it was a little warm outside and I forgot to bring sunscreen for the boys and Gaige got so sunburned on his face that his eyes were almost swollen shut! Then on the last day we were there, I borrowed some sunscreen and was putting it on Gaige when I thought I saw a booger on his cheeck. I wiped it off and then realized that it was a blister from the sunburn. So he had this nasty looking scab on his face for a while. We got everything packed up and ready to go, we were driving off and my uncles dog went right under the trailer, we hit him a little. He is fine, it just rolled him around a bit but he is alive and ok!! We FINALLY got home from this awesomee experience, only to find that somewhere along the way we lost the keys to the trailer, so we had to call a locksmith to come open it and make us new keys! The best part, the carbon monoxide detector was going off AGAIN!!! So, needless to say, it was quite the camping trip and definitely one for the books!!!
