As a kayak coach, young Lex did so well and in my eyes won, he paddled the furthest and didn't have a grandparent pushing him along. Lex all the way!!!😂❤😂❤
Yes!! Jami & Lester hosted the celebration big time. Lots of work! The place looked awesome and, oh my, that meal Jami cooked was FANTASTIC! I wanted a plate of food too. 😂 Everyone having a blast. So very special. 🎉
Yes! Such a great day. So fun to watch all the channel’s different perspectives on the same event! What great family fun and memories. And what A LOT of work for Lester and Jami! I don’t know how you guys do it!! Thanks so much for sharing with us! ❤❤❤
@debbiewood6928 Yes!!! What a beautiful event... from Lester waiting for their arrival til the very last camera turned off! Not to mention the countless hours they poured into preparing. They could literally host events as a side hustle. But they preserve their slice of Heaven for themselves and those that they love most. And most deservedly so! The Morrows, it seems, are a most authentic, hardworking, big hearted, fun-loving, salt of the earth family!!! Now, if they could bottle all that energy, they would be gazillionaires!❤️
@elizabethbarker3216 oh yes he was!!! He showed great sportsmanship and maturity... which won the race all over again for him in my eyes. Looked like everyone had a great time!
Totally think Lex won that race, he did all by himself with no help... Love watching your Family Events, always a great time. Thank you for sharing it all with us. Blessings to everyone - and the babies.
I think uncle Dan owes Lex an extra big trophy himself for cheating Lex out of what was rightfully his! Pay up uncle Dan!😂 You all did a great job love watching the videos of all the family’s!
That was fun for ALL, including everyone watching! Good food, fun and fellowship. Each year gets better. And the porch area is spectacular-you did a wonderful job with all the plants. Thanks for carrying us along.❤
Jami, thank you all for sharing the boat races with us. It was fantastic and I laughed so much at all the antics. And the rain was definitely a huge highlight for me as I have been praying for rain for your area. Take care and stay Blessed. ❤️🙏
Next year you will need trophies for the kids race as well as the adults race. Love how the whole family gets involved. I love the boat names, & costume idea for next year. Love that GiGi & Kim got in the boats. I look forward to this every year. The competition in the family make it so fun to watch. Love your family
Lex is looking so grown up and he did a fantastic job in the race. Stephanie’s family looked amazing! Jami does deserve an award for putting on such fun event. The food looked delicious and the patio is beautiful.
Norma here. What a great annual event. Lots of fun and laughter. We all saw that Lex was the true winner and that he acted more like an adult than his Uncle Dan.
Lex won that 100%. So fun to watch and see how creative everyone was. I live in maine and a cub master for the local cub scouts and we did something similar to this. But made cardboard snow sleds during the winter. They could be as creative as they wanted but had to be made from cardboard
I believe I’ve watched everyone’s footage of the breakfast and boat race and my heart has been warmed by each one. I truly hope y’all know how blessed you are to have a family that comes together like this. Thank you Jami for sharing your video with us. Btw…I don’t ever think there’s been another goat that more people have loved and wanted (myself included) like Finn.
Great pre-game interviews, Jami. Happiness, joy, and laughter, sprinkled were a dash of competitiveness. Everyone seemed so very relaxed with each other. PawPaw seemed so proud of his family, and especially with his son Lester. God is never late. He's always on time. 🚣♀️⛲🥰
Great Video, Jami! I have LOVED everyone's coverage of the boat races! Thanks for showing us each of the boats and for interviewing the participants before hand. Everyone was so comical and ultra competitive! 🤣 This was so much fun. You and Lester really know how to put on a fantastic and fun family event. Your breakfast looked wonderful and you and Lester had LHL's looking so beautiful. I know you both worked so hard preparing for this event and you guys did great team work and I know everyone really enjoyed themselves. I have laughed so much watching everyone's videos! Lex did a great job and actually won, but, he exhibited great sportsmanship after paddling all by himself, unassisted too! He let his little cousin have the limelight and he really wanted redemption from last year! He's such a great young man. Wish Xander, Kendra, and your Mom could have been there with you too! Maybe next year. The Denman's don't play! 🤣Loved their costumes and their boat!
Talk about a fun event! The enthusiasm was amazing - it seems to increase each year. I think there's one more trophy necessary and the winner would definitely be Jami! She is truly The Hostess With The Mostest . . HEART!! Before everyone fully recovers from this extravaganza that also included RAIN it will be time for the MP = Morrow Prom. Good times! Lifetime memories were made.
I have watched two different versions of the boat race before yours. It’s so much fun to see how everyone captures what is happening. I’m so glad you caught Conner flipping over. That was so funny. Poor guy tried everything not to tip over. Why don’t you put together a day for the Polk County firemen to have a boat race. It might give them something to look forward too. I’m sure they are all worn out from fighting fires. They might be able to have a day of fun. They could always bring the fire trucks with them just incase they would have to go out on a call. Jami you are all wonderful. Thank you so much for all you do.
It almost looked like (to me) that Connor should have been paddling his boat @ the other end & then he wouldn’t have taken on the water. If so, I think he could’ve won that race. 🏴☠️ 😊
Looks like everyone had a fantastic time at the boat racing, you must have been exhausted with all the cooking Jami and the porch area it looks awesome ❤
This looks like so much fun! I actually showed one of the videos during a party at my house yesterday. Everyone was cheering on their favorites. We enjoyed it almost as much as you did.
My family did reunions with games for a few years and then lives change. It’s fun watching this event and you both did a great job. Steph’s family…wow, loved it. I was screaming “Go Bre, go”. Can’t wait to see who got the end video. I do want to add, watching Pawpaw’s video where he is teaching Lex was heartwarming. He is going through the steps with the paddle. In the water, Lex struggled and it felt like he could hear Pawpaw over all the cheering. Then Dan gets in the water…again…and poof…Lex’s diligence, learning and hard work was gone. BUT in saying all of this, Lex handled it like a champ and he will be proud of what his Pawpaw did and will do for him. In the end this shows and helps build his character. I’m personally proud of Lex. Great job, young man! Jami, glad you got a nap and awesome job. Oh, Jake had to have cheated lol. ❤
So much fun! Great commentary. Lester could have used his bull horn for this day! I want to be a part of your family! Can I move down there and become a surrogate ‘Aunt’ to y’all?! ❤❤😂😂Seriously you are such a fun family. Hopefully your son ( sorry I can’t spell his name 🤭) and his girlfriend can join the fun next year! Oh and your Mom! She could help build the boat!
Awwwww Lex totally won that race . I'm so proud of him for being such a Gentleman and letting Brinley take the trophy. I'm glad y'all had such a great day .🎉💯❤🇺🇲🛶
Hey Jami, That was so much fun! You really cooked a lot, and it looked good... Thank You for thinking of adding the Cardboard Race to the Morrow's Family Gathering & Fun ❣️. You and Lester worked hard to make this happen. Thank You for sharing Your Video with me/ us❣️ Nancy
Fun times at Longhorn Lester’s cattle ranch. I was very impressed with the pirates ship and costumes they all wore. Some serious work will need to go into next years boats and now even costumes. I am already thinking about next years boat race and what the boats will be designed like. Well done Marrow family. I also watched Lester’s video last night and I just want to give a big shout out to Jami for the breakfast layout. It was better than any restaurant I have been to or have seen in commercials. Jami you could run your own business catering for people. When I saw it I was immediately hungry and I was not before watching the video. The power of videos is amazing. That is why I don’t watch tv that much. Awesome job again Jami. The boat race was also amazing with the kids. I wish my family did things like this but everyone lives to far apart. ❤all of it.
Had to put this on the big tv and watch! It was hilarious!!! Looks like so much fun and I know you have to be exhausted with all the decorating and cooking! Lord what a beautiful food spread!!! Can’t wait to see next years as the Denman Homestead set the bar on “Best In Show” … maybe not the bar on being unsinkable though but definitely was the nicest! Lol!
It was so much fun to watch! I think Jami is so, so smart and hard working! Lester worked so tirelessly getting the pond ready! I love all of the family! ❤️❤️❤️
The Morrow family is a joy.& pleasure to feel a part of. I loved the costumes, friendly banter, comradery & competitive spirit. Your post this morning is a nice end to the Labor day holiday weekend. Jamie, your breakfast looked amazing! Thank you all.
Well worth the wait! Amazing that y'all got some rain and everybody celebrated that too. I had fun watching and happy you had fun doing. Thank you so very much💛💛💛
That’s just too much fun! 😂❤ Jami you sure come up with fun ideas for the family. Love seeing them all out there having a good time together. This is better than Sunday Dinners! 😂😂
Hello Jami. Lex was so good he won but his adult sportsmanship was second to none well done Lex you were brilliant in your boat and I know Pawpaw is going to reward you with your very own cup too. Well done to all the children they did so so well. The boats were amazing and loved to see another video they are all brilliant thank you Jami for bringing the boat race to IMASS and now LHL. It’s a fantastic fun family event for you all to make memories. Sharing this with us too is awesome. Have a rest take care God Bless. 🙏💕👢
The kids looked like they had a blast! It's always fun to see them making memories together. They'll remember this and have fun conversations about who actually won years from now
Love the boat races. I already have suggestions for next year 😊 Have timed races, the best time wins. Have teams and relay races and best team wins. Lots of things to do with the boats. So happy to see the rain, a happy sign from God for the family and friends. Hats off to Fire Chief Chris. He rescued GiGi 😂 and took off running after the goats that was running down the driveway. Chris is a great guy. Ms Pat was so funny. It was good seeing Ms Pat and Dave watching from afar. Looking forward to next year ❤❤❤ Great job Jami❣️ You outdid yourself and all the breakfast foods you prepared. I hope you finally got some rest. ❤ (Sheila T)
One suggestion Is next year each kid have their own boat cause I think some adult boats sunk due to they were already wet. And the adults have their own boat too. Also I want to say Lex should get a sportsmanship trophy 🏆 cause he truly won. Beings Dan pushed the other boat not once but twice!! Lex took it like a CHAMPION 🏆!! MADE my heart melt seeing how he handled the situation he's growing up. Hats off to you Jami and Lester for hosting the Event. The food looked delicious 😋 and yall had it set up just right! Thanks to Ben for helping! And Thanks for sharing ur FAMILY FUN with us!!
Good morning Jami ☕❣ After all the ups-downs lately. This event certainly was just what the family needed! Everyone, had lots of fun and I enjoyed watching the race.👍 Everyone's participation made them winners 🏆 And, I'm sure the plans, for some are too build-back-better😅🤙Lester! Furthermore, a bigg shout-out too Ms.Pat🌸 Truly, blessed🤲Jami💝
This was a huge success. I loved that it became a neighborhood event. Love seeing Kenny there helping out in the water. Chis was in the water helping Gigi. Grandma Pat was toting Kater around. Whatever needed doing they jumped in and did it. This event is all over YT. So many channels in the same place. I think the "new rules" really helped, boat builders. Sadly Lester wasn't any better off for it but it was impressive.
I wonder what Chris was thinking 😂 during this epic race. You all are crazy in a good way. You all stepped up the building of these boats. Nice entry into the water. Lester 😂 guess it back to the drawing board for Lester. Looks like you all had a great time. Jamie amazing spread of breakfast 🧇. That was a look of food. Bloody pirates.
Those kids will remember this for all time! I bet they will be doing it someday with their own. Its a BEAUTIFUL thing Jami...you sure done goid girl!!! 💖👍🎯
I'm Anita: I was looking so forward to the Cardboard boat races. I had never seen one! So Much Fun! Thank you Lester and Jami and All the Family! Poor Lex kept heading to the same place. Next Time Lex! I luv Morrow Family So Much! God Bless Y'all and God Bless All the Animals
This was wonderful!!👌 Seeing a family having so much fun together is getting rare now. Thank you Jami and Lester for putting last year's race together as it sparked the joy and interest for this and future years Morrow Family Cardboard Boat Race(s). You are all building enviable family memories especially those kids. 🤗🤗💕
You have to give respect for the boat that Steph built. If she can use that creativity on something that floats a little better next year, Conner will be hard to beat!!!
Jami, I saw your live with Lester lsst night and you said something that I totally understand. You talked about how happy your heart was that everyone had a good time but especially because the kids had so much fun and were talking to each other and the adults about their race and thinking about next year's race. That's it. That's why we do these things. To create memories. It's all about the memories! Your event looks like it was a BOOMING SUCCESS again this year Jami. I am SO looking forward to The Morrow Fall Prom. And Halloween. I can only imagine what Halloween will bring! Thank you for making and sharing your videos with us. 💜🐾🐾💜
Thank you so much for all you do! I appreciate seeing a family sharing such joy. I can see how hard you work to make everything so special. You are a beautiful soul.
A BIG THANK YOU TO CHRIS! for helping with rescues! i love you all and made my day! i am senior with anxiety and this cheered me up and made me laugh! xoxox sending hugs from Ct
Poor Lex. He paddled in circles, then went the farthest past the fountain, and still was only a foot behind the cheaters. He really earned the legit win!
The judges should have held an enquiry into the children's race. Lex did amazing and would have won if Uncle Dan hadn't cheated. Looked like a fun filled day and The Denman Household have risen the bar for next year, their boat was amazing and their costumes were a perfect touch. Jami next year maybe cater for half an army lol
You pulled it off Jamie and Lester. The food looked great, everyone was having so much fun, and the yard and pond looks super, and it rained. You all are winners. ❤
Dan is teaching kids the only way to win is cheat . Lex was definitely the winner but he took it like a man when Dan made sure his granddaughter won . The rest of the family made me laugh my butt off . A lot of fun and good food . 😊😊😊😊😊😊 GO LEX !!!!
SO MUCH FUN!!! It was really good to see the run up from your point of view. Being across the pond was a good vantage point. Too bad you weren’t able to capture the second race. Still, the joy and competitiveness and out right memorable time was evident. Already planning on next year’s race. I’m purchasing stock in 3M.
Lex and Paw Paw did a great job and I was proud of Gigi for being brave enough to take the boat out a second time. Jami you do a mammoth job of working, feeding goats and calves gardening and cooking mixed with some boat building. What a wonderful multi-tasker you are. You deserved that afternoon sleep. (personally I'd need a week of sleep after all you've been through with the added stress of the fire) Lester you forgot to save your voice by not thinking of using the megaphone you had for the rooster. You looked good but so far I haven't seen your effort in the actual race yet, but I havent seen all the posts yet. It was a wonderful day and I enjoyed watching it and had some good laughs. Thank you all.
So far I have watched Hanging with PawPaw, The Denmans Homestead & Suits to Boots videos. Have enjoyed each and everyone one of them. Good job guys! I like to mention how well Lex did in the race. He handled that so well. So proud of him! Congratulations to all the winners!😁💞
Jami, this is one of my fav ideas you've ever come up with!! The "Glow Up" from last year in the creativity is Amazing 😂...It was fabulous then and it was even better this year!! From all the vids, everyone looked to be having soo much fun and that's what matters the most when family/friends (that are family too) get together! Soo happy to see Ms. Pat and Mr. Dave at the race again this year! Thanks for sharing all this fun with us, I could practically feel it through my screen Lol
It was fun had by ALL. I think the kids had an absolute BLAST. Poor Connor 😅 he stayed with that ship until it went down, like a true Captain. Elora is beautiful and tried her heart out. Brynleigh and Lex competition. I'm most certain it would have been a close call anyway. They all JUST LEARNED to paddle and I think every single one of them did OUTSTANDING. They are so cute and humble. Love you all!
Congratulations Lex 🏆 PawPaw was so proud Alex won, he was cracking me up saying over an over how Lex won fair an square 😂 He’s right though! I’ve said it before an I’ll say it again… I wish I had a family like the Morrow family. Y’all are awesome!!!!!
Jamie! This boat race is so exciting!!! I watched all day and some were posted yesterday! What a wonderful boat race and the entries were great but I have a suggestion for a category for next year's race! How about the "Most Colorful' boat?? Everyone put so much work, effort, thought and love into their boat and having a 'most colorful' category will bring some extra colors I didn't know they made in duct tape! You put on a great show! Everyone feels so comfortable that it makes this so much better. The yardgate for kids and petting zoo was a great idea too!!
I think it’s Steph n Buddies vid that caught the look on Lex’s face just after he reached shore… that smile as he looked out to his crazy fam is all that matters…❤… good job Jaimie❤
What a very special tradition. These are memories the kids and adults will both treasure for many years to come. You all give me goals to live up to with our family❤❤
Lester should have gotten his bullhorn out lol. That was so fun. Love your perspective. Too bad you didn’t get the adult race. Oh well you live and you learn. Lol. Have a great day
