I am Canadian by birth but American by heart. I am reminded of that whenever I see the flag lifted to the sky. The raising of the flag and your explanation that it represents faith and freedom gives me goose bumps. God bless your family and God bless the America it stands for. Your home is so beautiful with the mountains pointing upwards, a reminder of the Creator of the heavens and the earth and all that dwells therein. Love watching the building projects and the kids and animals antics. See you on the next one.

🇺🇸 I’m just an old veteran talking, so nice to hear and see people respecting Old Glory! Thank you.🙏

Thank you for flying the American Flag God Bless You and your family from a U.S. Army Veteran

I cried at the end when you talked about why we Americans fly our USA flag. Our country is in a hard and difficult time and so much is at stake. God bless the USA 🇺🇸

I especially loved the end when you raised the flag. God bless America! ❤️🇺🇸❤️

Good Job teaching your children about the Flag and what it means to each and Every American.

It actually gave me chills to watch you raise the flag. Thank you very much. I love your channel.❤❤❤❤.

You had me in tears with raising the American Flag. I love this Country and the men and women who have fought for our freedoms throughout history. As I watch pro-Hamas/Palestinian "protesters" on college campuses scream, "Death to America" and "From the river to the sea" I shake my head in disgust and sadness that they spit on the very foundation of what gave them the right to do so.

Navy veteran here. Thank you so much for honoring our American flag and all it represents! God bless❤

The current division our country is currently experiencing upsets me as a born and raised American. I felt a rush or pride and emotion watching you raise the American Flag over your beautiful homestead! God Bless America! I look forward to your show every Saturday! Thanks!

American born and raised! I cry every time I hear the anthem. I cry when I see a member of the service returning home to their families. I cry when I hear that one lost their life serving. Although all of that, I now live in Australia. I *live here, but my heart ❤ is there in the USA 🇺🇸. God bless America, land that I love Stand beside her and guide her Through the night with the light from above From the mountains to the prairies To the oceans white with foam God bless America, my home sweet home!

As an Army Veteran and Commander of my local VFW, I still find warmth from seeing our flag flying free. Thank you,

I Laughed out loud when Jeremy ripped his jeans😂. The breezeway looks sound. I felt such Gratitude while you raised the Flag 🙏🙏🙏Blessing’s

Love to all of you!! Happy Mother’s Day tomorrow!! ❤🎉❤

Just a quick comment, I don't know about anyone else but as a 60 year old, who was used to programmed shows I find myself excited for Saturdays to just catch up on my favorite family show! Thank you for sharing your life which brings me so much happiness. Yeah for Saturdays!

Love the flag and pole and the honor you're giving it. .....excellent.

Thank you for flying 'Old Glory' and teaching your children the true meaning of our glorious flag!! You are truly great Patriots.....in word and deed!!! 🥰

Another great video. I am a Vietnam Veteran and have US Flags on the front of my trailer and on my truck. Thank you for showing your love for this COUNTRY. I wish some of OUR leaders had that kind of LOYALTY and LOVE for the country. God Bless You and the USA. 🙏🙏

Army vet here. Let's never forget what the flag represents. Thank you for reminding us all. And happy Mothers Day!

Love that you fly our national flag and for what it stands for! We also have a flag poll with a solar light to show our national support for the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave. Our son-in-law is a veteran who fought for our freedoms. Let us stand for freedom not take our freedoms for granted .

Great episode, glad to see the breezeway finally getting tackled. Left me in tears with the flag, great closing!

Another great vlog, thanks! It’s true. As an American ex-Pat living in the UK, it is completely noticed by Brits how patriotic Americans are with flying the flag. So glad you’ve chosen to incorporate one in your build! Looking forward to next Saturday.

Happy Mother's Day to Melissa, one of the best Moms in America.

Thank you for flying the American flag. As a mom of 3 military veterans, thank you! God bless you and your family.

It actually gave me chills to watch you raise the flag. Thank you very much. I love your channel.❤❤❤❤

Thanks to your family for being the patriots that you are. I am a veteran and served our country with pride. Our flag says it all. Blessings to all!

Love seeing our flag flying on your homestead. Thank you!

The family flag ceremony was so great! It's nice to see parents teaching their kids the right things these days! 😊 🇺🇸

Thank you for flying our American Flag!!! We need more families like the Souza’s!!!! You guys ROCK!!!!!😍✝️🇺🇸♥️

Tears at the end when you were talking about why Americans fly the American flag. Our flag is truly a symbol of freedom and all that this country stands for! Thank you for teaching your children about the importance of this flag! 🇺🇸

I love the way Melissa was holding that piece of sheeting. Like a Model 😂 I love all of the wildlife that comes across your property, always an epic view.

Seeing the American flag raised still gives chills 🥰

Great start to a Saturday, good job on what you’ve done to the breezeway so far. Loved seeing the family with hands over hearts at the flag

Melissa, have Jeremy build battery boxes on the corner posts to where most animals cant reach the charge wires. 😊

Saw a guy cleaning dryer and vent, he found socks in the dryer below the lint catcher.

You guys are amazing. Love the flag pole. Thank you for being you and installing in your children the pride of being American. Happy Mother's Day Melissa.

The house is looking so good. Nice work. That was hilarious when Jeremy ripped this pants. He’s such a character

Thank you for showing the younger generation love for the flag, country, and our men and women who have served this country. Without whom we would not have the freedoms we all enjoy today. God bless your family! From a United States Navy Veteran.

Good Saturday! Time to catch up on the Souzas and then out to enjoy this day. Blessings to you all.

Happy Mother's Day Melissa. Thankyou for raising that flag. I also liked that song playing in the background.

Your endings always get me in the heart, but this was very special. Thank you for standing for what makes this country great!

Always such a wonderful way to start my Saturday!! Of course when I show my hubby and say, “hey, this is what I want to make our house look like” he isn’t as enthusiastic as me. 😆 You guys are so hard working and so inspiring. Thank you!

I am Canadian, but I know that the world needs a strong America. I love this channel and your family like you're my family. God bless all of you. God bless the United States of America!

Well said about why you fly our Flag with pride. As a Retired Military Veteran i salute you and thank you for your Patriotism and love for our great country.

God Bless your family.... And God Bless America... God should always come first.....

Thank you for expressing my own thoughts on the flag and what this country represents to me and many others…rarely is it spoken so well lately.

From a U.S. Navy veteran and a proud American, thank you for your explanation of why we fly our flag. God bless you and God bless the United States of America.

I am a Marine Corps veteran and am very thankful that my God saw fit for me and my family to live here, in the United States of America. I love my country. Thank you for making room for the Stars and Stripes Forever (a march that I heard ever so often during my 4 yrs of service). God bless your family!

The U. S. A. The land of the free and the home of the brave. There is no free without the brave. Stand up for her on your knees in prayer rise up. Great post as always, God bless you all.

Beautiful flag. God bless America and those who still appreciate it, and fight for it.

Your husband is a genius! Your home is beautiful. Love your respect for God and country! ❤️

You are a wonderful family and a shining example of what more people need to be like!

Good morning Melissa and Jeremy and kids happy mother's day

We have always had a flag hanging on our homes, no matter where we lived. 30 years in the military, 4 sons currently serving... I remember living overseas in the late 90's and the first time we came back to the states (after 3 years) we went to a 4th of July celebration and the radio station blasted God Bless the USA along to the fireworks. Imagine sitting on a blanket hearing multiple radios all around and seeing the sky. It brought tears to my eyes. I think the American flag represents what can be. It is the potential of what could be if we help each other and be kind.

I have 2 sons that served in the armed forces. Thank you for taking the time to raise that flag. That means a lot to me and to my boys. Thank you so much!

Your closing this week is so well stated, and an excellent reminder at this Very time in our great country. God Bless America. 🇺🇲

What a blessing and respect for our flag and what it stands for! As retired Army veteran, thank you and God Bless you! We fly ours in Tennessee ❤️

I have an Uncle who died in WW2 and he’s buried in Italy. My dad was a WW2 veteran and the flag is a symbol of what they fought and died for! MY FREEDOM! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

I loved your whole video…definitely, the best was the ending ! Awesomeness 🇺🇸🫶🙏🏻

Every person in the world should proudly display their country's flag, either by flying it from a flagpole or attaching a representation of it to their window or door. Regardless of what kind of government you have, what faith you practice or not, never be afraid to display your country's colours. It represents everything you and your country stands for and the sacrifices that others have made so that we may be always free.

Perhaps a mini-shed for the electric fence gizmo would help? Progress! Yah Bless all there, love your episodes... 🙏🙏🙏 👍😎👍

This is such a great episode!!! Loved seeing the flag go up especially!!! And the other progress that you have made!!! May God continue to bless each member of your family and all of your animals!!!

Thank you for proudly flying the flag. Loved your sentiments at the end, but that’s not odd. I always love the way you wrap things up Melissa. Thanks for sharing and happy Mother’s Day Melissa!

I just received my first order from Factor and so far it’s been great. The meals are great and easy, especially for me with major surgery pending. I like how your helpers collected the scraps of wood and put them in the firewood stack . When you raised the old glory, that sent chills down my spine I’m so proud to say I’m a Veteran and appreciate the sacrifices our men and women have made for our freedom. From the bottom of my heart THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH for the Flag.

🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸So very well said. I never thought about why other countries homes don’t have a flag flying. It’s just a natural part of our day that it’s just not thought about much by me. To me flying a flag means to me how proud I am of the men and women that have fought for our great country. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Has to be so satisfying to see all your hard work become permanent structures for your families future. Congrats!

Well hello Jeremy and Melissa and FAMILY my name is Denise and I live here in Oswego New York and I just wanted to write to let you know that I’m sending out a package tomorrow in memory of your dog Kenji . and I hope you know that I was crying when I saw the news that he had passed I am so sorry for your loss but never forget the memories that you’ve got to make when he was there on the farm and tell the kids that he’s probably up in heaven now chasing all the cats and playing in the snow. And also I’d like to say thank you so much for your wonderful show on RU-vid it’s been an honor watching all your shows and you and Melissa are both doing a wonderful job on the house and I’m so proud of your kids. on how far they’ve come and how much they’ve grown up over the years too so please take care and never forget that they is always someone praying for you all amen from Denise RHINES in Oswego Ny-5-17-2024-✝️🐕✝️🐕✝️🙏✝️🐕❤️

I love that flag and everything it stands for! Thank you so much for the love and respect you show for this great country of ours!

The American flag looks beautiful!

The finishing touches make all the difference. You already have the cladding, I remember when I said to a friend that it is made of concrete, she took some convincing. Good luck with the remainder of the build, love from Mike. ❤

It is so good and warms my heart to see the American Flag flying at your home. I have one in my front yard and it stays up all the time, day and night only taken down with very high wends. I am a National Guard vet and it means a tremendous liking to see it there. Thanks

Thank you 😊. My husband is an Army vet. 2 daughters one Air Force and one Army and a son-in -law 25 years - Air Force. Veterans all through our families. We are from Colorado and have always had a 20’ flag pole at every place we have lived. So proud to be an American.

Love your music, and the breezeway! So thankful for our America…God Bless America!

The ending - best part of all! Thank you!!!!

Happy Mother's day Melissa! Hope that it is a great one! One of rhe rarest & blessed mothers that i have gotten to know... God has blessed you with honesty and love ❤ You & Jeremy push me into my 70's 😊 ... Look forward every week to your videos 🤗 Having served over 24 yrs and then working over 17 for the military... seeing y'all raise Old Glory over your home brings 😢 tears to my eyes. May god bless y'all and keep y'all's close! 💘🙏

i🇺🇲 THATS REALLY AWESOME, HAVE A GREAT WEEK AND GOD BLESS AMERICA, AMEN. i🇺🇲

Thank you for flying our beautiful American flag 🇺🇸 ❤️

Breeze way is looking good, enjoy our Saturday mornings together!! 😀

I always pick up feathers and say "Thank you" they are gifts from loved ones on the other side ❤

I enjoyed the video especially when you raised the American flag at the end ! God Bless America ! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Thank you for raising our flag high and proud

Thank you for sharing the flag going up.I proudly fly my flag on my garage. A privilege to be able to let old glory fly in the breeze.

U.S. Navy and Coast Guard Veteran here. Thank you for flying our flag so proudly. Every time I see it raised it gives me the same feeling as when I wore the uniform. ❤Proud American !❤

I live in the city and I too fly the flag on the front of our home. Thank you for remembering our veterans. Thank you to all that served.

Your final words today where spot on. Well said.

Love your videos. Thank you for sharing part of your lives with us. May God continue to bless your beautiful family.

Thank you for flying our beautiful American flag. America the Beautiful needs more patriots like your family to give recognition to the freedoms that this flag represents! God bless you all, we are so proud to be a part of your RU-vid family ❤❤❤

Thank you Melissa for those words about what the American Flag stands for. Many have given their lives for to have many freedoms and blessings. Jeremy great job on the roof rafters on the connecting breeze way you were meticulous and it paid off. Nice to see two up and coming acrobats Khiamani and Kerah doing excellent somersaults. Olympic material in those two offspring of yours. Until the next one be safe and prosper.

Great video of the work you all did around there so far. It's looking so good. Seeing the flagpole install in the last video was super and then at the ending of this video the flag being raised and the tribute to the flag was awesome. Keep up the great work around there and the fun you share is fantastic. Stay safe. Fred.

Thank you for flying old Glory 🇺🇸. Watch your videos every week. ❤️ from Kansas.

Thank you for today’s video and the raising of our flag. ❤🇺🇸❤ It honors the men and women who have served and died for our freedom and country! Praying God’s Grace continues to Bless us. I love Saturdays! Happy Mothers Day Melissa.

Thank you for flying our American flag. I’m a proud grandmother of a Naval Academy graduate. My grandson worked so hard as did all the 2023 graduates who are now continuing to learn and train to protect our great nation. I tear up whenever I see the red, white and blue and pray for the safety of all the soldiers from every service branch for all their sacrifices for us. Great job 👏 👍

Thank you for explaining to me the reason the Flag is so important to Americans. I have really wondered about that. Great work guys! I love your devotion to your family

Americans are very proud of their flag just as US Canadian's are proud of our God Bless Everyone❤️🇨🇦

We are the home of the free because of the brave. My husband served 20+ years in the military and I’m very proud of him. I am so glad that you have the flag raised high and proud. I love watching you and your family. Much love coming to you from Colorado 🇺🇸🙂

Thank you very much for flying the stars and strips it brings tears to my eyes everytime someone raises our beautiful flag i salute you for this opportunity and to the ones who have gave their lives for this great nation . Larry ( Vietnam vet )

Good morning to my beautiful family❤❤❤❤.

Love, love, love the flag!

Thank you SO MUCH for putting up a flag, and explaining to your foreign viewers how important it is for us Americas, to display our flag. It’s our sign of INDEPENDENCE, UNITY, and FREEDOM that WE as Americans uniquely enjoy, without persecution. I am a Retired Naval Veteran, and I’ve flown a flag at every home I’ve owned. If that offends anyone, I’m sorry, but I sacrificed a LOT in order to have the freedom TO display that great flag! So THANK YOU!!!
