Their wife's in the future are going to really appreciate yours and Mark's input for them to be independent and resourceful! AMAZING, and yes lots of family around is a blessing, you all rockx🇬🇧🌻🌹🌼💖🇬🇧

We take fish eggs...batter them and fry. Of course they areBASS, crappie or catfish.

What a beautiful view from the cabinet. I would build a more modern cabin. It would be worth it, having such a beautiful location.

You yelled “dinner five minutes” and then my oven beeped right then 😂 perfect timing, I am amazed that your children just eat pretty much everything. They are also so sweet, the “mom I love you, you’re a good person” was just the cutest.

@mimi0424 2 года назад

Your boys are the sweetest 💗 I really like how you talked to him about taking taking a half of sandwich 🥪 & if he was still hungry he could have more..thats teaching them sooo much! these are things most people would just waste the sandwich..not anymore! food is too expensive to waste. you have awesome parenting skills! I love how your are w your boys! Let me say that stew and grilled cheese looked delicious! if you're at home and making it try the oven. you really don't need to flip it sometimes I do..but it's the best. most buttery..perfectly cooked grilled cheese PLUS you can make everyone's at once....and I like your pizza idea on the grill! you can get 2 reusable grill mats under the brand VILA for $3.91 w prime..just passing that on

We call the ceviche here in the Philippines "kinilaw". Thats a staple esp.for those cities near islands like us.a super staple esp.on beach days.we do a lot of variety of that here.with cucumber,raddish and other spices and aromatics and our holy grails,onions,ginger and chili's.lots of it♥️

@cindyjarskey3931 2 года назад

Lauren, no no no lol. Octopus, Salmon eggs. I love how your boys love food all kinds. I don't eat anything weird lol. The eagles were awesome. It's a lot of work but you are a great mom and making many memories. You deserve a girlfriend night out and a spa day. Love your energy

@paulinemaclellan8204 2 года назад

The cabin looks like a lot of work for you Lauren but it is beautiful. I would love a big family but we are a small one...we welcomed a beautiful wee girl into the family on 4th July. My niece Claire gave birth to Mia, a precious wee sister for Ben. She's lovely, so smiles and happiness all round for the Fordyce/Goldup and MacLellan clans. Thankyou for sharing your wonderful Alaska Life with us xx

@NayStouffer 2 года назад

You have the cabin cooking down to perfection. A lot of planning and prep before you go I’m sure. Creative meals, and treats. I wish I liked fish because your meals looked delicious. Watching the eagles was very cool to see. Your trip looks like it was so fun!

@meka5815 2 года назад

Thank you for sharing your meals. It’s so nice to have the freshest of the fresh fish. I was wondering how you caught octopus, so cool. If only Mark’s fish filet were sold at McDonald’s, I would be there everyday. Your boys are lucky to have never tried one from there, lol. Take care ☺️

@stimmy86 2 года назад

Wow!! The difference in store prices is wild, but it’s being shipped in and you have to account for that. Thanks for sharing the trip to the store. Guess I won’t complain about grocery store prices anymore. Love those fish pictures at the end of video. How did you make them?

@barbthomas4492 2 года назад

I really enjoyed the video…..all the delicious food, the tour of the store, watching the eagles, & Hunter did a great job of showing us how to make the rhubarb pies 😃 ) thanks for sharing 🌻 ( it always feels good to be back in the comforts of home afterwards 😂 )

@leekorten1791 2 года назад

Watching the eagles on the beach was spectacular, it great that you take from nature what you need and give the rest back to the wildlife. The little shop had a wonderful variety of things, and yes the prices are high but it must cost a absolute fortune to get it there. Luna was telling us all about how you abandoned her 😄. Great video, have a wonderful week 💞
