Kim gets a ton of Fed Ex deliveries but is dismayed to discover it is all camping stuff for Kroy. Kroy is forcing the family to go on a camping trip. Kim thinks that taking kids camping is not safe. Does she think a dingo might take her baby?
But before in camping trip, you must take your assistant and your husband to the cosmetic doctor for Botox and a facial peel for Kroy. Fairskinned people should not have those peels, their skin is too sensitive.
Kroy goes over the camping rules which include no cell phones. Brielle is refusing to go, but Kroy says she has no option. Kroy continues on with what to do in case you encounter a bear. Kroy and Kim make fun of Lana’s weight.
Shun arrives with shopping bags from Dick’s Sporting Goods. They try to get Shun to go and she says she doesn’t want to sleep in a tent with the help. Sweetie is no more the help than she is. Kim decides that the babies are not going so Sweetie is staying behind with them. That sucks. 
It’s the first morning of camping. Kroy is frying bacon and making breakfast while Kim, Shun, Brielle and Ariana bitch. Seriously? They are practically glamping ffs. Oh and KJ is there. Kroy wants to go fishing and asked the girls to go fishing. Ariana was very successful with finding worms. The lake is beautiful and Kroy and KJ and Ariana are having fun. No one had any luck catching a fish. Not even a nibble.
Finally, Kim drinking out of a red solo cup is appropriate. Kim is finally getting in the groove. Everyone is eating hot dogs and hamburgers and marshmallows around the campfire. Time for campfire games. First two truths and a lie. Shun says she has been a stylist for six years, she’s been arrested for disorderly conduct. And she used to sell shoes to pimps and hos. The lie was the stylist one, she’s been a stylist a lot longer than that. They move on to truth or dare. Brielle asks Kroy when he knew that he wanted to adopt the girls. Kroy said after the second or third date. Truth or Dare for Brielle, did you run the Escalade into the Range Rover. Kroy says they have it on video. Brielle still denies it. Then Shun asks Kim if she misses her mom. Wow, way to ruin the fun vibe, Shun. Kim says no. Brielle seems very sad. Kim says that when her mom sold tabloid stories about Brielle and Ariana having too different dads she crossed a line, permanently. Brielle asks her mom how she thinks they feel. Everyone else has grandparents.
Wow, Kroy’s parents hate Kim and Kroy has stopped talking to his parents too. So sad. Especially for the kids. Kroy says that Kim has done enough to try to fix things with his parents. Kim says she was very hurt by it and it took her away from the happiness in her own family.
Lana says she dated a famous drug dealer and gigolo.
Next Week: Kim gets a consultation to get new boobs. Ariana wants to date.
That was a cute episode.
Kim’s mom sues for grandparents visitation.
More info on Kim’s mom’s visitation case.
Kim tries to have the case thrown out.
“Kroy has stopped talking to his parents too” – I completely missed this … what happened?
So did i
Me too!!!
Tamara these episodes come off as scripted.
Keep in mind, they are not to far away – production is filming.
I wouldn’t be surprised if this is reenacted.
i particularly liked the part where Kim was saying how great it was to be away from the paparazzi while the viewer is supposed to suspend belief and not think about the Bravo camera crew surrounding them.
So you don’t understand the differences between being paid to film a show and a bunch of photogs stalking your every move?

I am loving the versatility and depth that they all bring. I even love Kim. She’s loving the life and they are the quintessential family…MODERN family.
I’ve been waiting for this recap to comment. The campfire conversation was extremely sad to me. I appreciate Kroy’s loyalty to Kim, but I also appreciate that his family has kept silent in the press about their disapproval. I really don’t think it’s fair that they are being discussed on TV in a critical way, but the moment they have any criticism of Kim, they get shut out. And there is plenty more to criticize about Kim than simply her preexisting children and the “smoking and drinking seen on rhoa”.
I don’t like that Kroy dips, and I don’t like that Kim was photographed smoking while pregnant, but they do make me smile and this show is probably the best thing that’s been on Bravo in a really long time.
I keep thinking back on Kim’s comment that 14 year old Sweetie Hughes put Brielle on the bus most days, because her own mother didn’t help her.
I’m not a huge Kim fan, but I feel for her on that. And it endears Sweetie to me.
I didn’t know an out the history with Sweetie. Did Sweetie give up her own childhood to take care of the girls? Did Kim take care if sweetie too? What is sweeties story? Didn’t she have to get on her own bus at 14?
Lots of 14 year olds help younger siblings, neighbors and friends get on buses in the mornings. It’s called real life. It doesn’t mean Sweetie “gave up her childhood”, or that Kim ” took care of” Sweetie. It DOES mean they have a lot of history, and loyalty beyond what Kim can expect from her own parents. Which sucks really bad.
How precious it is that some people have no concept. The struggle is real.
I watched. Meh. No real impression either way.
Are we REALLY down to ONE HW franchise being in season??? I don’t remember the last time there was just one. It’s sad that they dropped Miami.
When Kroy’s parents were on the show you could tell they weren’t exactly delighted with Kim. It’s really sad to hear neither of them are talking to their parents anymore. I always thought kim didn’t speak to gets due to the fall out at the wedding and I thought it was petty; but to hear it’s bc they sold stories to the tabloid seems justifiable in cutting them out of her life. I want to know more about why Kroy and his parents aren’t on good terms…
This is the first I’ve heard of Kroy’s parents not interacting with the family. So sad that they are alienated by both sets of grandparents. The girls seemed really saddened by the BS of the parents and grandparents. It was pretty glib of them to attribute Kroys parent’s disapproval to the fact that she had children. Really? Maybe the fact that you were a Ho on TV carrying on openly with married Big Poppa for years previous might have affected their impressions of you? How sad I feel for those kids.
That is my exact impression of what you’ve termed the glib attribution. That’s clearly the way Kim and Kroy have been advised to spin the grandparent alienation. There is clearly much more to the story than that. I would like to see more background as to Ariana’s biological father’s family, considering the speculation that they have provided so much financial support to the girls, as it might put some of the escort speculation to rest. I can’t imagine Kim cutting the Toces completely off from Ariana in that case, but maybe she has.
Since Dan Toce, babby Daddy #2, spent time in prison on multiple child sexual assault and is reported to be a crackhead, it’s a good thing he is out of their lives. And apparently the multimillionaire Toce grandfather information was not true, grandpa died when Dan was very young.. Babby Daddy#1 was the 47 year cop Kim had the affair with which rocked the small town. So, uhm, no, I don’t think Kroy’s parents disapprove of her having children, just her being a gold-digging ho, stripper, marriage-breaker, cheater skank!
Nothing you said is new information. You have added absolutely nothing but negativity and nastiness to a sincere comment thread. But at least you feel better about yourself.
They need to watch Briell she is going down the same path as her mother. That kid needs some big time rules and be made to follow them. What did she ever do in school. Is she hard of hearing of something. The most simple of things she doesn’t know anything about. Maybe Kim should have been more attentive to her in her everyday learning.
I thought it was truly sad to hear that both sets of grandparents are out of the their kids lives, but Kim’s mom is insane and Kroy’s parents seemed to be the ultimate in uptight conservatives…which sucks, because those are great kids and Kroy seems to be a really great dad.
They only showed Kroy’s family on the wedding show. We have not seen them since. I guess Kroy feels that Kim and the children are his family now and he is not going to tolerate his parents talking bad about Kim. If they want to see the children they will have to keep their opinion to themselves.
And that is a good thing. The family one creates must take the priority above the family that one was born in to.
I’m sorry but didn’t nene spill the beans a long ass time ago about Brielle and Ariana having different dads I feel like we knew that way before her mom said this.
That’s not really the point, though, in this case. The point is her parents were very attention-seeking and actively pursued financial compensation for information about her and kids, via tabloids and a tell-all.
Kim didn’t say that the girls did not know. She said that they didn’t want the world to know that they have different fathers.
I don’t usually watch this but catch it on re-runs. It is SO scripted, like Kim bitched about camping but at the end was enjoying it. Camping is fun, if you don’t have a narcissist along. Brielle is on her way to be like her mom, but Ariana is still a sweet girl.
I love this show. It’s so cute! I love that they just enjoyed each other as a family. It’s really sweet. Brielle seemed to be a nice, mature and responsible kid. And I’m not saying that because that’s what I see on TV but my daughter and Brielle have some mutual friends and they say that about Brielle.
Kroy’s giggle drives me crazy. Anyone else? I want to slap the chew out of his mouth when I hear it.
That chewing tobacco is disgusting! The man has 6 mouths to feed and Kim’s big ass to maintain….the last thing he needs is mouth or throat cancer. Gross!
Yep, extremely annoying. So much so.
I was surprised that they did not flashback to Rose telling Kim that his parents did not want him to marry her, They discussed that his family’s opinion was based on RHOA, and it would be difficult to change their preconceived opinion of her. I wonder if this is part of the reason he changed his cross tattoo.
I liked the camping storyline and agree with Ariana that how Lana sleeps is TMI.
WTF is wrong with sleeping nekkid?

Nothin’ :)) Just really like how Ariana is coming into her own with the facial expressions and tmi comments.
Sleeping sans-clothing is the only way to go. Best way possible if the situation allows.
Why would kim and kroy make fun of Lana’s weight? What’s
Funny? Oh maybe because Lana doesn’t constantly have doctors
Cutting and sucking out fat like kim. Who knows what she would really look like without all her cosmetic procedures wigs, excessive make up, false teeth. Now she loves sweetie!!?? How fake and phony
The Lana comments were cruel and hurtful. And Kim and Sweetie have been friends for many, many years. Which is why making a close friend your personal assistant is a bad idea.

Thank you for seeing the point. So many people make a huge deal out of Sweetie working for Kim and make it a racial issue. It is just like Kandi and Carmon. Bad idea in both situations.
