Caught off-guard by REGRET - Farm Transformation 

I think Arthur’s courage and vulnerability will really help others. I for one, need to see this struggle. It is helping me deal with my own struggles. Thank you, Arthur. Be kind to yourself as well

I remember when people were telling Arthur to get some help with the house. He refused. So getting some help with the mowing is great! It's not failing to need help.

Arthur, you are NOT alone. We all have our messes and our regrets. One day at a time.

Art you look good with your haircut.😊

I'm SO PROUD of you Arthur, that you chose your family over the alcohol. Alcoholism killed my dad and really damaged us kids. We lived with it for a Long time, walking on "eggshells" around him. Our mom eventually told him he had to stop drinking or leave and he chose to leave. I can't tell you how sad and damaging it is, that as a young girl I was relieved he was leaving and that I knew he chose alcohol over us. I'm 58 and still deal with it from time to time.

Congratulations at being 10 months alcoholic free. I'm so proud of you. You are blessed and highly favored. I love how God is restoring you and your family. I am continuing to pray for each of you.

One of my favorite things about the Scriptures is how many people have deep regrets and yet also much deeper joy in looking ahead. Your whole crowd is making wonderful progress!

Bri, don’t go back to the camper.

Art, do not overdo and get over whelmed by planning to do too much. Baby steps to take time to slowly move forward will keep things ❤ and happy for your family. One day at a time with LOTS OF HELP to be asked for when needed.

I love seeing how the kids thrive at the farm and being with their dad. They want to learn from him and be hard workers like him. Bri you've been their security during your family trials and those babies all know that. I'm so proud of you Bri for having that unconditional love that we speak in our wedding vows. Arthur, everyone makes mistakes and messes up. A real man can admit his mistakes, and try to fix them. You are doing that. Your family, even your children will have a testimony to share. I'm so proud of each one of you all. God is truly amazing. Ty for sharing your lives.

Arthur been there done that!!! It Definitely Doesn't take the pain away!!!! I have been FREE fo 4 1/2 years now!!!! Life is had but Absolutely Amazing!!!! I don't regret it for a second!!! God Bless Us All!!!!

10 months!!! That's impressive!! Bri, I love your face at the end. You take such joy in your children. It's beautiful to see.

Thank you for being willing to share this- you will never know all the people who will benefit from your courage. We lost our home to fire two years ago and in the overwhelming aftermath my daily encouragement to myself has been: "What is the next right thing for me to do?" It helps to push all the other stuff away so I can focus on what needs to happen now. The occasional what I wanna do creeps in as a treat, but what moves me forward is the next right thing.

Arthur, your story is such an inspiration to so many. My husband is a recovering alcoholic. He drank several years trying to get rid of pain from his childhood. Finally, after almost losing me and his kids, he was saved by Jesus Christ and one day he was drunk, the next day he was sober. He has been sober for over 36 years and now. He was a Cobra pilot in Vietnam and ended up flying for an EMS helicopter company. He is an amazing Dad to his grown kids and an awesome grandpa. Our married life is amazing. That is his story and you have your story. He has helped so many others and I know you will to. Whether you know it or not, what you have been through is your testimony to others. You are so much stronger than you will ever know. My husband helped start a Celebrate Recovery group at our church. It isn't only for alcoholism and drugs but anger, and all other hangups people have. The group is amazing and they have all become so close. I know you will be helping others and seeing you with your family is just amazing. You are a wonderful inspiration to so so many. Keep up the great work and know that there are many of us behind you praying for you.

So darn cute, especially with a new kitten. Arthur please keep going forward! Lost my youngest daughter at the age of 42 almost 2.5 years to alcoholism. She left behind a beautiful 5 year old daughter who is now my oldest daughter and is now thriving. She asks about her Mommy in heaven all the time and questions why she died. It’s 💔💔💔. We tried and tried and tried but to avail. Keep thriving for Bri and your children, hard journey I know but so worth it in the end. ❤❤❤

I think the mold affected you as well as the rest of the family

I clicked so fast when seen was a farm video just love that place. I been watching you 6 years now sometimes I go back and watch old farm videos.

Arthur be proud of how far you have come! Stay strong, I believe in you. You are an amazing dad to your children. They are watching and believe in you. Seeing them on the farm, playing down the River, eating the peanut butter sandwiches you made, and learning all about how to be a man from you. Praying for you and your beautiful family. 🙏🏻💕

Be proud of those 10 almost 11 months ❤ not everyone gets there.

Arthur one step at a time and always with the Lord leading you on is the way to make. I pray for your family.

Great job on the 10 months Arthur! Thanks for taking us along.

Congratulations on your 10, almost 11 months of sobriety!!🎉 every day is an accomplishment. Well done!

Sorry but I just wish this channel was Bri from Scratch only. I enjoy watching all you do Bri and how beautifully you keep your garden and your home and watching the amazing meals you make for your children. I’m so proud of you Bri you are a very hard worker and provider for your children. God Bless.

Back when I was in first grade, my little brother and I were having a blast at our local creek until we stumbled upon a sad sight-a dead fish floating by. Startled, we ran to the shore, but in the chaos, I didn't notice the broken glass from a 40z beer bottle lurking beneath the water's surface. I stepped right on it. At first, I didn't even realize I was hurt until I saw the bl00d trailing behind me. Panicked, I checked my brother, thinking he was the one injured, but he was fine. Confused, I looked at my foot and that's when the pain hit me like a ton of bricks. My foot was cut deep in a circle shape, and I had to get a lot of stitches. This experience left me with a large scar on the bottom of my foot-a constant reminder of the importance of keeping our waterways clean.

10 months and continuing sober, Arthur, and with God you can continue to walk this path! He is a constant source of peace while drink only numbs you temporarily as you know. Joyful is being a wonderful mother/pet owner to the new kitten with the skills she learned as a big sister!

We admire u being so honest and vulnerable Arthur ❤ u r such a good daddy

Proud of you, Arthur. 10 months is a great accomplishment. Keep up the good work.

Art I know you don’t need external validation but that’s an amazing feat and I am so proud of the hard work you’ve put in for your life. Praise God for giving beauty for ashes

I'm so glad to see you guys in videos together. Please both of you remember to take it easy on yourself. Take your breaks when you need it.We will still be here.

Arthur you are strong and so very capable of staying that way! Your viewers continue to pray for your continued work to bring your family together again❤

You are a true man that recognizes your weaknesses. Every man goes through a mental breakdown, especially you. I am not going to list everything that you have on your plate as a man. But the fact that you overcame it makes you solid. Remember that you need alone time as a man so that you don’t fall.

That kitty is beautiful😍 she is going to be so fluffy ~ the home is looking beautiful🏡 the garden is looking beautiful🌱🌾🌷 the farm is looking beautiful🏞 you all are looking beautiful...❤ you can see the joy in all your hearts just over flowing into what you all love the most...and nature boy Wilder is getting so big now🦖🦎🦬

Arthur, I totally envisioned you climbing up the tree & nailing it on there!😂 Also, so proud of you for your recovery! Joyful, may I recommend a cat collar I've used for 20 years called a 'Beastie Band?" It's made of neoprene (wetsuit material) and Velcro fastener, is stretchy & able to slip off if caught. They come in very cute designs & are less than $10. The trick is to put it on kinda tight at 1st so they can't pull it off with their mouth. Once they're used to it you can adjust it a bit looser & cut off the excess. I LOVE your new kitty, she is adorable😻Bri, thx for the explanation about Thrive Market, I've been wondering how it works. Love you all. Grandma Kim❤️

Why in the world would you all move back in the camper? You have a stylish modern farmhouse that is so big and beautiful.

progress is awesome - God has perfect timing, His pace is always right 💖

Congratulations on your 10 months clean Arthur!! You look really clean too! I am still praying for your family.

Like everyone is saying..we all have our regrets,some are big and just small regrets,some consume us more than others. You're doing so WELL! We're cheering for you and your family.

Your vulnerability is beautiful Auther❤

Arthur congratulations on 10 months sober!!!! My husband will celebrate 13 years sobriety on November 10 of this year. He says it was his greatest accomplishment. That’s huge for you, and you deserve congratulations 🎉

I'm so proud of you, Arthur!!!

You got this Arthur! 22 years sober for me

Arthur, God sends us reminders of what we have gone thru to be grateful of where we are today. Past bad choices dont define who we are they are just reminders what amazing things we have today so we can try to maintain and continue to prosper. So happy you and Bri are working together to build a better life. Be proud you have conquered and are succeeding over the past. Bri you have shown us all what a forgiving heart and working to repair a broken home. 🎉to many happy years ahead.

So many of us rooting you on!

❤❤❤❤ u all, watching, seeing, listening every little Good job Arthur God is so good. Good to hear u, doing ur best for the family ❤❤❤❤❤ God blesses u alll

Sweet Kitten. Good choice Joy. Art and boys are so great together on the farm. The river’s the best.❤

You both are good people and good parents❤

It is really good thing you have trained your children to check for ticks!

Arthur, please don’t let the regrets bring you down. Look at all the good things you’re doing. That’s all that matters going forward. Just one good day after another one success after another. We all have messes that we have to clean up no matter what our circumstances are. Even if we haven’t gone through a hard time nobody’s life is perfect. We just have to pick up and say let’s start doing things better and just stick with it. I think you’re doing great and sometimes a little regret is good because it keeps us going forward but just take every little victory as what it is enjoy it and go forward. I appreciate like many people here your honesty in your struggle I am sure there are many people that you’re helping on your journey to get started on their journey to better. As always you and Bri and the kids are in my prayers every single day. I’m very happy for your family that you’re on a journey to get back to where you wanna be!

Joyful, you picked such a pretty kitten! You are going to have so much fun! 🤗👍👍🐈‍⬛🥰

I just love seeing your family healing

I’m proud of your vulnerability & progress in recovery ❤️‍🩹 10 months is something to celebrate. Love to see your beautiful family healing. 🙏🏼prayers for you all 🙏🏼

So proud of you, Arthur! My hubby has been sober for almost 28 years. Looking forward to you being able to say the same! You can be victorious with God! Thank you for being so vulnerable and open. God bless!

Greetings Been watching a long time. Don’t give up. Your remorse is from the devil. Your on the right road don’t give up. I love to watch you cleanup your place. Stay in the word.

Congratulations Arthur!

❤ 🐈 make sure to get lots of scratching posts! Cant wait to see the new kitten and dog playing in the house with everyone!

Well done on 10 months sober ….I’m now 4.6 years sober ….if you still have difficult days it does get easier ….keep it up !!M

At the end maybe this is what you all truly needed for yourselves and for each other🤗❤️

I hope everyone is mindful of the newest member(kitten) so it doesnt accidently get out thru an open door. Shes a sweetie and everyone looks excited

Good grief you have some really unpleasant people commenting on YOUR channel Bri..noone has time or energy for hatefull people! Love to you all.

Thanks for the honesty and help for those who need to hear this. In helping yourself you are helping others. 🎉

Good for you art. It’s not easy. But it’s worth it

Arthur you are doing a great job getting the mobile home cleaned 😊

Congratulations to Joyful on getting her kitten. Whimsy is a wonderful name too.

You need a European Scythe, like Ben Hollar has been using! It's amazing for tall grasses!❤❤❤ Good luck. God bless you all and many prayers 🙏🏻 Nurse Judi in Scottsdale AZ and Eucharistic Minister 🙏🏻 ☦️

I've been watching for a long time now and I'm so happy that both of you and your family are going to be going back to the farm. Mom, dad, and all the children seem so happy when you guys are there😊

Arthur, God bless you and your sobriety. What a huge success. My grandson is now 2 years sober and we are so proud of his efforts. Your kids and wife will bless you forever for your efforts to be clean. Keep up the good work.

One day at a time and the serenity prayer get us through every day. God is good.

I’m so proud of you Arthur. Your doing so good.

Delightful video. Celebrating with you Arthur ! God's mercies are new every morning! Great is His faithfulness!!

Congratulations on your sobriety 😊❤

Thank you for choosing sobriety Arthur! As the child of a alcoholic I an so glad you chose life.

They didn't name it spirits for nothing,huh? I managed to stay clean until 40. Fibro, 2 types arthritis,broke back, and a hard life fineally was too much. I gave almost 10 yrs to that devil. Im still dealing with fallout! Im so glad you're free hun. Im happy it didn't tear your family apart for good. Be Encouraged, we all have a cross to bear!❤❤❤

What a beautiful place

The kitty is beautiful. She’s a gorgeous calico. Get a pair of nail clippers, and start clipping her nails very easy to do and the faster you do it as a kitten the more she will be used to it.

Congratulations, 10 months dry, I am proud of you, Art. Don't be a Trash hole! That's awesome 👌

just so wonderful seeing you taking care of your beautiful land ..I so miss our farm property and the woods..take each day and enjoy

Glad to see Arthur working with the children at the farm!

Congratulations on the kitten! A beautiful Tortious Shell coloring~

Good morning Art and Bri and crew ❤

Brother....it doesnt make the pain go away!...It temporarily hides it...Look at each one you find as a gentle reminder of what you've overcome I spent a year drinking 3 fifths of jim beam and a fifth of vodka a week...That was over 30 years ago! Keep moving forward!

Bri, you truly are blessed and a blessing to others. Your children are exceptionally adorable, all of them, I loved seeing how careful and sweet they were with the little kitten! Joyful, I am so happy for you! My first pet was a kitten, too (now I'm a dog mom :) . I wish you all nothing but the best in life

Congratulations Arthur. That's tough. So glad y'all have overcome this. Blessings, julie

Arthur, our story is so much the same!!!

that can of liquir my friend is what sent my wife, mother and oldest child to live with Jesus in 2005, it was in the hands of a teenage driver who lost his life as well, miss them dearly

Art, Bri and family...thank you all for the beautiful video!!

That can can only take the pain away for just a little while. Doesn’t take it away. But I’m glad you are in recovery from it. Family s are more important.

To me, you have always been awesome Arthur. And you continue to be. Thanks for sharing yourself with us.

Such a beautiful family! Thank you for sharing these precious moments with us. Joyful- so happy you got your kitten. 😊 The river scene and garden moments were so beautiful. Great videography and editing as always. ❤️🙏🏼

I said out loud Truly looks like Grace and 2 seconds later Bri said it. She probably says it a lot but I just noticed. Beautiful family none the less. ❤❤❤

Takes bravery and character to admit your mistakes…one day at a time Arthur…we love and support you! Prayers and much love guys❤🙏🏻….edit:….whomever did the edit..with the music while the boys were at the river..was beautiful…great edit..gave me the “feels” from head to toe❤❤❤

It is so beautiful to see little boys collecting flowers and appreciating them for the pretty part of nature that they are 🙏❤️

I love seeing Arthur share his vulnerability. He’s doing what he needs to do to heal and he’s probably helping others who are or have walked in his shoes. It won’t be easy but with your love and forgiveness, I believe he will be successful. The kids and you look so much more at peace and I’m glad you are working on the farm to get it back in a livable condition. I believe this will help Arthur with his healing because it will take time, not happen overnight. I do have. Question about your garden. When you cut the romaine lettuce, is it supposed to grow back? I just reaped a nice harvest out of my garden yesterday with beets, bell peppers, onions, cherry and beefsteak tomatoes. I pulled the Romain out after I cut it because I didn’t think it would grow back. Same with my head lettuce. I have green beans and snap peas that look ready to harvest, and my cucumbers are growing great. But my squash and strawberries are another story. This is my first year doing a garden so it’s a learning process for me. We leave AZ next month to head to NC and I’m hoping to take some of the plants in my motorhome, but most will have to either die or go to someone’s house. Most of my garden is in container pots so easily transferred. But the plants in my two garden beds I’ll have to let go unless I can get a neighbor to water them. But neighbors here are not well known.

Dish washing up soap drowns ticks. They breathe through their legs! So dousing an attached tick will causing them to let go and they drown. It is bittersweet to see how far you have come.

Thank you ❤️

Fantastic progress through love & family & friend connection! Thanks for sharing bits of your lives that help strengthen us & your family. Blessings to all 🤗🇨🇦

Love learning about the plants you show us!

Congrats Arthur on staying sober ❤

I was thinking Lulu looks so much like Grace...and Bri said the same thing. Hey big bro Wilder!

Stay strong Arthur! My husband quit drinking 15 years ago. His problem started when trying to quit smoking. He went on chantix which caused all addictions to snowball. A drug can never take the place of physical, spiritual and mental will power. You are in our prayers.

Congratulations, Arthur, on your sobriety!
