I hope your kids know how lucky they are to have mom like you. I’m 52 and my mom left when I was 6. It was tough growing up without a mom. However, not having a mom, has made me a better parent and appreciate the mom my wife has been. That was just God’s plan. You remind me of my wife of 30 years. She has been a great mom to our kids. Moms are truly a blessing from God.

Wow just wow admiration and respect for this beautiful and hard worker lady and also the family ...

Great job driving the tandem Sanders

[@clydemarkham7915]

Fabulous video great talented kids you have. Awesome channel.

[@robertpsieving4401]

McKenzie, you have learned almost every machine on the farm. Just practice, although the drama is great to watch.I know you can do it!! Yes, I want to see you run the chopper

[@patrickt4384]

That was funny! You kids are so lucky to grow up on a farm, with great parents! Wishing you a great weekend!

[@BTqwerty187]

farm kids never fail to amuse and impress. farmers and ranchers are just built different. much respect to yall. this was my second vid of yalls that i watched and as someone who loves driving stick shift, i can say one thing for Kenzie. it is incredibly nerve racking, yes, but with patience and a bit of practice, you can get it down and it will be like riding a bike. i know that im commenting this when the vid is a couple years old, so i hope that you have got it Kenzie and didn't give up after this.

[@nealreissig9072]

Never a dull. Moment. In ur vidios. . very relaxing. . I 'll be waiting on ur next. Vidio. . always awesome

[@ihms6gmail.comgorjup834]

Wow what a strong young women. She stuck with it and drove a semi. Most teenagers would have run away and given up. You did great Kenzie. Give yourself some credit. You have seen and done more things than most teenagers do in the suburbs. Someday you'll thank the Lord for all these life experiences on the farm. God bless you and your family

[@joed9908]

I admire your dedication to hard work and family.

I miss cutting silage, working the farm, and tending to livestock. Since the passing of both parents in the late 90's I miss many things about the farm life. God Bless

Wow what a driving instructor Nice job by all

Mackenzie loving your T shirt, Seek ✝️ Find.🙏 Your some laugh in that truck 😂😂🤙🤙👍👍

[@rdyardie]

I can appreciate your frustration Kenzie. You are doing well. I was about 12 when I was driving "old Beulah" on grandpa's farm. It was a flathead 3 ton grain truck. It even had mechanical brakes. I had to stand on the brake pedal to get enough force to slow the truck down. I did not go fast. I filled in when I was needed. I felt uncomfortable driving it but I coped alright. You show your feelings well. It is good to express your feelings. Forgive us for enjoying what you do. It is most likely that we empathize with you because we have been there at one time. Your mother is very patient. You will look back with fond memories when you get older. . . . It happens.

[@ronaldpiper4812]

Dad explain clutch break to her and It pressed all way makes that stopped shifting hard. Listen to mom off clutch make gears come closer to both speed.

[@dwyaneengle9621]

Great video Rhonda and Kevin great to see your kids helping out they are very good to help

[@10to1imjokin]

Sanders has that young man and machine confidence and inherent knowhow, but Mackensie is my daily dose of entertainment and joy!! I can only give this one Thumbs up, but I'll gladly give it ten fingernails!!

Your dad is so happy to see you in that truck

[@jimaalbers857]

This was fun to watch. Rhonda watching you try not to laugh was like when I taught my kids. Keep up the video always enjoy watching.

[@raymondrapp6303]

Awesome MacKenzie, you do a great job. And remember we are laughing with you. Not at you.

[@johncarlsen9318]

Tell Miss McKenzie she did great driving the Volvo. Like you told her, practice. It won't take long and she will want to drive it all the time. She is a great source of laughter which, we can all use some these days. Must have been hard not to laugh a few times, you did great holding back.

[@rosthi]

This was the darn nice vidio. I see Mom enjoyed Mackenzie's misory as did I. lots of fun to watch. I look forward to "The Mackenzie Chopper Show" .

[@jaccotomassen5454]

I enjoyed watching, your daughter did an excellent job👍👍😉

[@patkelly7999]

Great job Mackenzie and Sanders, and a great teacher to guide them safely:):)

[@MrKonradWhite]

Twins are back in the field :)))

[@jbmbanter]

I want to see her drive the chopper! You did a great job with the Volvo Mackenzie!

[@keylargo2001]

Rhonda just a little professional advise for you all. When you are off roading in a truck. Never place your thumb inside the steering wheel. Tuck it back so it touches your index finger. If for some reason your front wheels hit a hole, a rock, stump or what ever. That steering wheel can get ripped out of your hands quicker then lightning. If it happens you risk dislocating your thumb or worst. They are both doing a great job learning.

[@stevesteffes2543]

Great video Rhonda tell Kenzie it will get a lot easier

[@bradmoyer9737]

I think McKenzie harbors a secret ambition to be an actress and win an Oscar (She has a good jump on it) LOL 😂 The baby has become a man - 😮 Wow! if people didn’t know and just saw you they would never believe you have a grown family, you are a beautiful person inside and out! Blessings for a great fall on the homestead.

[@SawmillerSmith]

Sanders looks like he has grown a foot or more this year. Probably hard time to keep up with out growing pants. And I like the sound of the truck with no Muffler. I like the drama queen too 😆

[@acresofclayhomestead]

Yes, Sanders definitely is growing! 😊

[@chuckstorie9086]

Maybe that's why she so bitchy driving the Volo lol

[@Jon-mt5ov]

McKenzie, I feel your pain girl. Your doing an awesome job with that truck. Hey we all had to start somewhere!

[@adamthayer9995]

McKenzie here is a tip for u when u back up u always wanna turn the wheel the opposite direction we’re u want the trailer to go then then follow the trailer when u are to the spot u want to stop and unload sometimes u gotta pull forward but that’s ok and when u turn corners turn wide until u clear the obstacle u will get better at it it takes time

[@Adam_Poirier]

This is super good advice. First time I ever backed a semi truck, a guy told me to turn the steering wheel towards the mirror that you want the trailer to get out of. Now I’m in my 30s and I still do it that way

[@dannytharrington6361]

I love to hear Mackenzie going thru the gearbox on the Freightliner, she's driving that no problem.

[@bobearl7859]

I see mom's having a lot of fun

[@jonryan5339]

There's always a first for everything lol.

[@johnswartz6321]

She cracks me up.

[@acresofclayhomestead]

She laughs right alone with you all! 😆

[@Ausmerica]

Nothing like being thrown in to a rig you never driven. Consider yourself lucky, I remember when I got thrown into an old Mack with 2 gear sticks, and nobody showed me how to drive it. Then drive it to the dump site. It was fun to learn the hard way.

[@jeffrust8947]

That's a great farming family...

[@dwightarnold6980]

I LOVE IT! TAKE YOUR TIME !

[@markshaffer1108]

You will get the hang of the semi’s just practice in the yard if there’s enough room

[@PhilGoldblum]

Great work McKenzie. If you can get a load to the bunk with the the volvo - running the chopper will be easy.

Lol Kenzie love ya your so hilarious you did a great job for driving the Volvo for the first time keep up the good work Kenzie you got this

[@brianmartin4487]

i have 2 sons and then 4 girls . The boys could always find the wet spot in the field . The girls seemed to end up crying and would make a wet spot. The fun of trying to teach and get something done. Know I have grand kid , Watching your family bring so many good memories back. My adult kids tell me that there memories are a lot different.They all have turned out fine and are busy raising there own families,and one is raising her kids on a dairy farm. One out of 6 ain't bad . For today.

The "Trials & Tribulations of Mackenzie!" The daily life of youth is a crucible, for their maturation process, that hopefully solidifies into a competent, well-rounded adult! Remember, mannerisms (are a very loud silence) that may reveal far more than had been intended! Like Acres of Clay!

We call those neckin' knobs. Anything without power steering had them - which was most cars at one time - so that way when dating, girls sitting next to boys driving, boys had one arm free to put over their girls' shoulder. My tractor still has one. No buddy seat so no neckin' going on.
