I LOVE that their son just comes out in a Dino suit from time to time! Hahaha. EVERYONE needs a kid who's not afraid to come out dressed like a T-Rex!

@GoodSimpleLiving 3 года назад

Right!

@hillshawn 3 года назад

Lol. I'm 49 & I randomly show up in my T-Rex suit too 🤣

@Angela152half 3 года назад

Our 6 year old grandson has a T-Rex suit like that and so does his other grandma. They like to wear them at Halloween. Our two grandsons are obsessed with dinosaurs. It’s a good thing.

The struggle in Melissas eyes to not comment during the discussion of the caulk gun. You guys crack me up.

I was thinking the same thing. Her facial expression was hilarious😂

Actually to be honest my wife is just as bad.

Of all people, I expected Melissa would've noticed that was the big size caulk that wouldn't fit in the regular size gun.

Question: Do you think it might be time to build a ramp, or a set of stairs to get on & off the house? I'm surprised you haven't done something already. You'll likely have difficulty finishing this house if either of you get hurt jumping down all the time. Let's just say, I'm speaking from experience. 🤪

Garage or carport? I don't think we've ever talked about that. 🤣 OMG! I had not realized Kenji had gotten to be 10. I swear yesterday he was just 7. 😳 Girl, I can't believe you broke me down again! The narrative at the end got me right in the heart strings! I had forgotten it was Easter morning! How could I have forgotten that?!? I prayed all that day for y'all. You guys have come a long way in a year's time. You have much to be proud of! ❤️

Here’s a suggestion for you , put your extension ladder from the bank to the floor and put some pranks on it for a walkway to get back-and-forth without having a drop down into the hole

@debbiputman3482 3 года назад

Y’all should build a temporary bridge over your “moat.” It would eliminate the expenditure of energy just getting up on your “dance floor.”

Melissa you have a lovely voice and how you value your family and what they mean to you is lovely. I hope you all enjoyed seeing your family and spending time together and that you said it was a year ago that you came to the property and look what you have both achieved in that year, a tiny house you completed, three lambs born, built a chicken coop etc etc. Not to mention Neveah helping with the household chores and the little ones all pitching in. What a lovely family you have not to mention of course Jeremy who with you, the banter, the joking, the little belt snacks, victory dances, and ads that you play out make our day. Thank you for sharing your journey and I am sure you had a lovely Easter.

That subflooring is amazing. Took 12 months to build our home and it rained ALL THE TIME!! This is flooring was amazing. After all was said and done, there were 2 pieces that were laid out on the mud to provide access for the workers! They did not warp or swell or anything. In fact, my husband rescued them from the dump trailer and we used them for workbenches in the barn we just built. They are so level, flat and stiff that we didn’t need anything on top. We pressure washed them before using them to build the benches! Perfect! Well worth the money considering that we have no squeaks or uneven floors after all the rain even after 2 years here. Good choice!

@GoodSimpleLiving 3 года назад

Thank you, that is encouraging and reassuring to hear!

Enjoy those kiddos, time will slip away and they will leave the nest, but I know they will take with them great memories but more than that, the love you both have for each other and them will last a lifetime.
