Before-and-after photos show how a family of 5 transformed an outdated RV into a modern space that they now live in full-time

Kimberly Dekker said most of the inspiration from the camper came from their home.@thedekkertrekkers/Instagram

• The Dekkers, a family of five, recently renovated and moved into an RV.
• The family found a camper that fit all their needs at the beginning of this year, and with the help of a contractor, they gave it a major face-lift.
• Kimberly Dekker, the mother in the family, picked out fresh paint, new flooring, fabrics, and decorations to transform the camper.
• "Now it looks like home," Kimberly Dekker told Insider. "It looks bright and cheery and light-filled."

From Glacier National Park to geysers in Yellowstone, the Dekker family has explored some of the country's iconic nature destinations, all while bringing their home along for the journey.

The family of five lives and travels in an RV. At the beginning of this year, they purchased a 2010 Jayco Jay Feather.

In a few months, Kimberly Dekker, Brendan Dekker, and their three boys have created lifelong memories and learned powerful lessons.

"Obviously the changing scenery outside our door is pretty amazing, too," Kimberly Dekker told Insider. "Our front yard is not the typical front yard."

But before their journey could start, their camper needed a renovation.
