Walmart bags instead of waterproof bag because then if they blow out the pants you don’t have a bag to clean.

I can't believe how quickly 2023 flew by!

I agree, 2023 was a whirlwind of excitement and memories.

Too many ‘SUPER’s’

Being a fairly new resident, I was looking forward to your video..then I saw your masks..imbeciles

Just curious where are you on creation vs evolution? Personally I’m a creationist but would never give you any shade.

I have a funny idea for dad 😅 love your page

Bought old diesel tractor with 6 ft. front loader, hay spear and rear spear for $8100. Old and reliable. Buy old and take time looking, asking and cheap. Got twice the tractor for half the cost of new. Fifteen years later still going. Maybe I am just cheap.

Thank you so much. We’re cruising w/4 kids as well.

Im Ruby! Love your vids and meeting you was super cool!

Wow, great footage of your time in Niagara Falls. The Sun and your viewing angle of the actual falls was really incredible. Great family memory. The only thing missing was footage of Ethan rocking his Pink Headphones.

Hey Music Man & Chicken Lady Sup..

😮😅

I was intrigued by the title of your video and expected to learn the basics of operating a Kubota zero turn and was disappointed. I did comment which will help your channel, however I didn’t subscribe because it seems that your channel is more about getting subscribers, comments, thumbs up rather than sharing “how to’s” with your audience. Maybe this method works for you guys. It must be since you guys were able to purchase $14k lawn mower. Kudos!!

Must say that this was a very unusual but creative way to celebrate Lydia's 30 Birthday. It is awesome that everything worked out and that she really enjoyed it.

HOW FUN!!! New subscriber.

Hi Ethan and Lydia, great update video on your lives and also all the highlights of your time in Cabo.

Are those the scout or sport fish pro?

I got 24 acres and only a 60inch zero turn haha i need a good upgrade soon. Do have a rzr though!

If you guys haven't be to Sight & Sound Theatres in Branson, then you're missing out. They put on amazing Biblical productions! I've been there 3 times to see Jonah, Samson, and Miracle of Christmas. I'm hoping to make it 4 with Queen Esther this year. Next year is David and I hope to make it to that one too, Lord willing! But you guys should really check it out, if you haven't already. They also have the main theater in Lancaster PA, which is playing Daniel this year and the return of Noah next year.

The Wild Olive is fantastic... Excellent food and Service.

Thanks

Weird people

I would feel the same exact way Ethan! LOL

Love your vidoes

I'm going to guess that Ethan is a Leo and Lydia is a Pisces.

This is great! Thanks for sharing. What area are you guys in?

Ogdens trail?

Oregon?

You should have a septic inspection done as part of the home buying closing process. It should be part of the inspection process or separate. We had a home inspection, a water well inspection and testing, and a septic system inspection. I recommend all three. Current owner should have to be responsible for at least part of the costs, or reduce asking price, if that septic system was about to fail. You could have gotten some/most of it knocked off the selling price or they could have repaired it for you during the closing process.

Hi Ethan and Lydia, enjoyed this video of your Cruise experience. The ship looked absolutely amazing so it is sad that the food quality has diminished. Happy 10 year anniversary and hope your overall experience is a good one. I recently watched some videos about a Norwegian Cruise line experience. They did mention that the food choices and quality were really good. Food is so important, especially on a cruise. Enjoy your time alone and not having to worry about keeping your kids entertained.

great video! u should put some livestock on the land with grass, then u wont have to mow the lawn! Cheers!!

What are your go to things you do during the coldest months of the year? 🥶

Hi Ethan and Lydia. Great camera angles on this video as well. The footage where it looked like you were driving on a globe looks like it was from a 360 angle camera. It is great that Ethan still has grandparents still in their own home and your children can have great grandparents. Looking forward to your videos from your trip to Costa Rica. Happy 10 year anniversary.

Great video of your time Sledding with your 4 wheeler in the snow. Grayson had a couple good wipeouts. Glad you finally had enough snow to make it happen.

Nice! Good luck!

Great video. Good to see the close relationship that you both have.

Wow, your channel is so close to 2,000 subs. Like the idea of putting your daily goals in a planner instead of just on a piece of random paper. With as hectic as life is today it is so much better to plan out your day's activities.

What Habits and Routines are you trying to put into place this year? ✍🏼

When we started homeschooling 9 years ago it was super overwhelming trying to keep up on everything. I started making a chore chart that we still us to this day. It has things that need to be done daily, weekly, and monthly. The daily chores are then divided between all of us (age appropriate of course) and the weekly chores are divided by days, and monthly are done every 1st week of the month. This really helped me to get organized and stay that way. It also helped the kids learn responsibility and start learning a work ethic. Hope this helps 😁

2023 gave me such good memories but it went by too fast.

Good info. Thanks !

What about car seats for from the airport to hotel for night before a cruise? I’m not sure what to do! I know the rooms are not that big so I don’t want a car seat to take up more room!

Get the tractor, but don't get new paint with debt payments. A true homesteader should find a used tractor and repair it into reliable function; all of which can be done with cash and not on a banker's schedule. What's with mowing with a brand new zero turn? You need to convert all that land into crop production to feed the livestock, at a minimum hay but also corn and wheat/rye. Hay balers are hard, start with a wagon and a pitchfork to load loose hay in the shed like farmers did in the 1920s.

Just a thought about Ethan's comment about kids moving on and out at 18. I know the 2 of you married early, but today a lot of kids are living at home past 18 if they can. With the cost of living it is so expensive now for them to live on their own at 18 or even 20. You guys should consider doing a video where you ask your viewers to give assumptions about you both and see how true they are. Also, have a Q & A video were you ask to have questions submitted and answer them on a video. Just some ideas for future videos. Catching up on your older videos.

I hadn't heard of Upper Room church but will have their website. Must say it is an interesting name for a church. Do you know if their name refers to the Upper Room where Jesus had his last meal with his Disciples before he died on the Cross?

PERFECT list !!!! moved from los angeles to rural kentucky. found out the hard way.

So surprised that with so few views on this wonderful video's. These are so beautifully done, so much energy, so smartly presented. I am from India, came across your videos today, enjoying them a lot, so much of positive vibes/energy in your videos, keep it up. People will find your wonderful videos.

Wow, Zeal is so cute. Never heard of a Bernedoodle. Is that a cross between and Bernese Mountain Dog and a Poodle? Looks like your other dog is a Golden-doodle. They are supposed to be great dogs.
