Thank you for the reminder that I needed to order our summer kiwi crates! Your code made this even sweeter, so I ordered for my youngest for the first time, who will be 4 in a few weeks. We already love them and I order every summer for my school age kids!
Natalie, this video is extremely encouraging to me. I noticed that there are projects not completed like a missing picture above the piano and that honestly made me feel so much less alone with the little projects that need done around my house. I'm not the only one that has those. ❤
I am not picky at what videos you post.... For me I will always learn something new from you. I always like learning something new and that helps benefit my life. It is always peaceful watching your videos, especially when I just need to relax. There had been good reminders of what I need to hear or that I had forgotten about.
I'm so excited for a little garden content, and it was nice to hear the kiddos in the background! Also, the little Natalie quirks I've come to know and love made me smile🥰
Fellow southerner here… I’m in Texas… growing up my mom would make iced tea every day at lunch:) I will make it every now and then for my husband and my kids :) mine just isn’t as good as my moms is

I loved when you talked about gardening as a learning experience. We bought a house last year with these gorgeous raised beds and crazy garden in the backyard. I really wanted to make use of it... but I have a 3 year old boy and one year old boy, and work full time so my approach was plant everything with no research, see what happens, if anything grows, go and learn from there. I'm already seeing green beans sprouting!
Your tulips are so pretty. I love your motto "progress over perfection" It's a good reminder for me also. I have had my vegetable seed for awhile but today, I went and bought my vegetable garden plants. It's wet here but it will happen.
Thank you for sharing a little bit of your springtime garden prep! It’s fun to see your garden again. Maybe this is kind of weird, but I’ve been slowly watching through all your past RU-vid videos over the last several months, which has been fun seeing how things have changed from back then until now. I think it would be so fun if you did a favorites video like you used to do back in the day! Thanks for always being encouraging and not being afraid to point people to Jesus. ❤️
Love your videos, Natalie! I like the variety that you have from cleaning and decluttering to room makeovers to favorites videos. I think I'd enjoy any content you put out 😂
Nat, this vlog was so needed and so laid back, so relaxing to watch and your soothing voice i can hear all day long. I always take away some sort of learning something new from your vlogs. Thanks for your kindness for the giveaways :)
Glad you are feeling better. Chickenpox are not fun. Here in the Netherlands, most children get them when they are in the beginning of elementary school. I remember me having it and it was tough when my daughter had it when she was 6 or 7. Here summer term is almost beginning. my daughter will be free from school for the summer, It's not until the middle of July though. Can't wait, we're all tired and can use some weeks off. What a great idea the clothes line for the garden gloves! Garden seasoning is about to begin, another week and a half till my expected last frost date.
What a beautiful flower arrangement. Just a Little tip here, dont mix daffodils and tulips in one vase. Daffodils will reduce the lifetime of the tulips. They loose some kind of glue which cuts other flowers from water supply.
I set the timer on my phone to let me know when the wash is finished and it's time to put in the dryer. Remember to carry the phone with you inside and outside your home. Arlene
Would you consider doing an “end of the school year/realistic” school supplies rundown of what actually ended up getting used and being useful? I am over 30 but I just love school and office supplies so much lol. (My planners are for stickers, not plans)
So glad your family is feeling better. The vest is so cute, and perfect for cool days with beauty. I never seem to think to add that to wardrobe for outdoors. 🌷 Tulips oh my they are beautiful! I remember watching you plant them on one of your videos. Bless you all with all the wonderful things Jesus has for you all.
I love cleaning our home "with you" on the Smartphone. Whenever I watch your channel, I'm inspired to be a better mom and houskeeper. Thank you! Lots of love from the, still in snow covered, swiss alps ❤
This video was so timely and enjoyable. It brings me back to different seasons I have enjoyed your content. It gets me excited for our own gardening adventures. It feels like a slice of peace for a season that is fraught with a lot of anticipation (wrapping up this year and gearing up for our first year of homeschool). It feels like the next season of motherhood while also like being a new mom again. Thank you.
I would love to see homeschool curriculum updates. We just finished kindergarten, and I'm thinking of switching curriculum, but have no idea to what. Especially since I now know my girl, who will be 7 starting first grade, is mildly adhd.
Just want to give you a shortcut for making ice tea. I have been doing this for years, instead of using boiling water, you can use tap water or even water you keep in your refrigerator. Just pour it over the tea bags in your container and place it in the refrigerator. Much faster. I love your greenhouse! I'm jealous!!!!
Hi Natalie, oh, I love your garden & your garden shed & how you hung your gloves! So cute! Those cute little shelves are darling & holds quite a lot of things! Just a thought about the merrygold flowers you were talking to your kids about them. They are also bad for allergies. I'm definitely allergic to them. So, in case you have allergies, I wouldn't plant them. I know they have some good things, too. It has to be your choice! Oh, I love your sweater vest! It's darling! My Mom was a knitter & crocheted too & she could have made that. She made me & my kids sweaters & sewed clothes for all 4. She was a special lady! I miss her terribly! My kids had chickenpox, my younger girl got it first, 5yrs old & then all 3 got it next. They were 8,7 & the youngest 4yrs. She teased them terribly. But they teased her for having it in the first place. Ha! So, thanks for sharing! You'll make a great grandma!!! You have a great Mother's Day!👩🌾 ♥️☺️🫂🦉🌹🦋🐾🐾🪴🧵🪡🧶✨️
We are going to be spending a month RVing Washington this summer, I’d love to hear about summery things to do and places to see with family while we are there!
⚘️ Your tulips are lovely. I have a couple of colors that grow in my landscaping, but not as many as yours. It's so fun to bring them inside to enjoy. 🌷
I love supporting your channel by liking your videos but I always forget!! I’m currently going through all your videos and liking a bunch. I always appreciate when you remind us to like the video because I sincerely want to support you but my brain just does not want to remember haha! Hope y’all are having a good week🤍
I was dreading doing the big pile of dishes in my kitchen but then I saw that you posted a video! Love the content and always look forward to your videos. Watching from Connecticut
Natalie! Make the tea as sun tea instead of boiling water now that the sun is shining. (From California where we do this often but don’t sweeten it usually)
I love the vlog style videos ❤ the garden and home stuff is good for the soul but then I’m happy to watch anything you do. I wasn’t keen on the decluttering content but would just let the videos play in the background to help support the channel 😊 so glad to see more of what you are doing. I’m starting to get more hand in my my own gardens (although only tiny compared to the space you have to work with) and find massive inspo from your content! I was unable to comment on your patron video to enter the comp though xx
So sorry chicken pox kept your kiddos down. One year my 4 children got them one week apart, ALL of May😢 Such lovely gardening tips and tour. Have fun with your cut flowers!
I have really been debating on Kiki co I definitely think we are gonna give the summer box a go to test it out😊 I can't get over how beautiful the tulips are!!!
Im trying to talk my husband to let me plany lavender, maybe in pots. I love it, but the last time we put some in our garden, pests ate them. Plus, I'd like to have a huge bunch. Lavender is my most favorite flowering plant. The bees and butterflies would love them.
Hey Natalie, I signed up for the free membership and was still not able to leave a comment without upgrading. But, I must say I loved your Ireland vlog ❤
In your grandma-era, have you considered other "grandma-esque" hobbies (i.e. knitting, crocheting, etc)? I could see you doing that on your porch swing. Making more cute and cozy things like your vest 🙂 I taught myself to crochet about a yr and a half ago and now it is something my mom and I do together.
How do you guys handle having all the crafts/toys/experiments leftover from the KiwiCo boxes? My kids are young enough that they still have a toy box full of toys. That's my main hang-up.
Greetings Natalie, from Pennsylvania! I love your channel and all of its beauty and simplicity. I would love an update on your chickens. Any eggs yet? We have 5 ladies, and I just love them so much! They provide us with breakfast every morning and loads of entertainment! I hope to see some video of them soon. Thanks, and have a beautiful day! 😊
We were getting eggs from them in the late summer early fall until the cold set in! Unfortunately, during the winter time a predator picked them off and we are so sad to no longer have any. But we plan to get chickens again someday and look forward to sharing that with you when we do!
be careful with the vinegar/salt mix. It actually kills the weed by changing the pH and salt content of the soil which makes it difficult for anything to grow. In your drive way you probably don't mind, but be careful in other areas or even along a flower bed.
How have you done so much planting already? Are you past the threat of frost? I am in the northeast (CT) and we usually have to wait until after Memorial Day weekend to plant our veggies and many flowers.
I love being in my garden. I have had lots of issues with creatures eating my starts this year. I am on my third lot 😅 i am have popped over to Patreon. Just to let you know that only paying subscribers can comment on the video over there 😊
Sorry for the hoops to jump through. I really tried to keep it as simple as possible but I'm at the mercy of how these platforms work. Thanks for the love!
