It never ceases to amaze me how well your children work together. You are very "Good" parents and such an awesome experience this is for them. They will carry this adventure with them the rest of their lives.

[@annedarbyshire7634]

Ken Hughes I second all tjat

[@Superduty_59]

This build keeps getting better! That table is a work of art! Very nice craftsmanship!

[@sunnyk1233]

Beautiful table

[@LifetheWildRide]

The kids in the video are great. The bus is looking great as well cant wait till we get to that point.

[@46lfries]

Those girls can't wait to get their hands on that baby they help mom out with smiles :-)

[@michellebarham326]

Omgsh, Seth is SO adorable..love his sweet lil voice 😍😍😍

[@kenlynch6332]

Quality craftsmanship

[@ernstcanche4267]

The bus is looking great

[@AnnMcDan]

The bit with Seth is adorable! And very "real life"! How patient and kind all the Good's treat one another. The fruits of the Spirit are strong with these kids ;D What are your parenting secrets?! Lean on the Lord obviously! Great video, keep up the good work! Y'all are so close to moving in!

[@dougduncan5223]

I’m honestly blown away by everything you have built from scratch. I can’t cut a square corner! What a cool bus you’re going to have. Very cool y’all

[@jonathansouthwick1095]

Looking really good. It's awesome to see your children involved in the conversion process. Also, I must say Seth's little soliloquy about his toys and their names was a cute addition to the vlog. Glad you kept it in there.

[@adamdaughtrey8676]

Congratulations on the new edition to the family. Lots of memories.

[@jerrybrooks870]

That table is too cool. One of the biggest problems in a tiny home is being able to have a decent sized dining table. Your design is so ingenious. Also, your new bus turning into a real work of art. Thank you for sharing your build as well as information on where to find various components.

[@TripleXclown]

I really love the simplicity of the table, I was way over thinking how you were going to make it.

[@KauaiMike1000]

Smart focusing on importance of kitchen table. LED light strips a sweet touch. Love the stove! All good!

[@veraopdebeek9183]

Thank you very much for the explanation of the dining table. Wonderful how it worked out! We are looking forward to see the new baby. The new member of a beautiful family.

[@billridenour1]

You are doing an awesome job. What a blessing for your entire family to be part of such an amazing build. Only one family member missing out on all the fun.

[@1banos]

It's coming along great 👍

[@kimosabbe50]

As soon as you showed the bottom of the pedestal I thought, "Noooooo....he has to cut a hole in the floor!" :) Beautiful job .... everything is looking really, really, nice. All the best to Julie for a smooth delivery.

[@Johnitacc]

It looks so amazing! Julie is a trooper! ❤❤❤

[@Pennisshop]

Congratulations on your new baby girl. Can't wait to see her.

[@cleodiebleu8793]

wanderfull table !

[@yeah4me1]

Every toy truck has a name! Lol, so cute

[@terrinadeau8965]

Trains, every toy TRAIN has a name...very important.

[@terrinadeau8965]

"Gordon, Trevor, Rusty, Terrance." Terrance is my fav

[@UberAdventure]

The finish line is near I cannot wait to see it all done

[@roxanapanaro252]

I hope Julie has an easy delivery soon. The table is impressive. You all have done a beautiful job.

[@liyan00]

Congratulations on your baby!

[@fynbo1007]

Congratulations with your new born baby daughter, thank you for sharing your amazing journey. God bless you and your family

[@wagnerfamily2043]

Julie looks amazing! I can’t wait to hear when the babies arrives. (If he/she hasn’t already 😉)

[@PatriciaDavidsonPhotography]

Aww, such team effort! The bus is looking great. Your kids are such great helpers.

[@willymags123]

It's looking beautiful. I had a camper one time that had a huge beautiful marble table and what happened was it was folded into a box from the front wall and when I wanted to use it I would lift it up and unfold it about 3 times and it came to about 10 feet it was a beautiful thing

[@kevinburke4197]

GREAT Progress.

[@markjones8704]

Looking awesome guys! Thanks for the tip on the wood that’s damaged, I’ll have to remember that next time👍

[@ladyglittersparkle6451]

Baby defiantly dropped. Your tummy is low so I think baby will be here soon if not already. So excited for baby and bus ;)

[@nowhereman8422]

Looking so amazing and congratulations on your new daughter she is so beautiful

[@scottdamato5829]

[@sharleah2279]

Wow your build coming along great the love and care even detail in this build shows Shane what an awesome builder you are.Yes babies come on there own schedule lol. Julie I'm jealous I was in labour with one child for 13 hours so you are outstanding.

[@johnralston5818]

... IMO... you've made great choices throughout your build... may it bring ya'all ( that's Texan, so it is grammatically correct ;) happiness & adventure. God Bless & prayers for safe journeys.

[@andressepcid5487]

Shane, as we like you, we are several (nine in total), I have been complicating in thinking how to do with the table, where we all have our place and do not occupy much space. With today's video you have answered that question that I have been doing for some time. Thanks for the videos you post, they are very helpful. Greetings from Chile. P.D .: I see the videos but I do not understand what you're talking about because I do not understand spoken English, but just look a little to know what you're doing.

[@exithappiness]

Very very nice! It turned out really well so far. Greetings from Germany.

[@natewilson9933]

But you did a much better job installing them than I did.

[@TheRedneckprepper]

Awesome the daughter in law last week had a 9.6 lb boy ! im a grand papa again

[@jackgiglio]

Nice Thomas HDX!

[@blacknight771]

Very impressed 🙌👍

[@kimjsplace]

Awe you guys have done an awesome job!

[@KIDHLRGarage]

Awesome table idea! We may try that in our RV

[@nataliejones1385]

Congratulations on your new little girl. I've been hanging out for news of the arrival 😊. Hope it all went smoothly. It's interesting hearing the statistics of how many women go overdue, I'm part of the other 30%🙂 3 babies and not one made it to their due date!

[@hoangtu69]

I've seen a lot of van/bus conversion videos and I must say yours looks the best. I compare your craftsmanship vs. others using the comparison between Apple and PC. Both work but Apple products look much nicer. Your bus conversion is like an Apple product vs. other van/bus conversions which are like PCs. They work but do not look nice and professionally done. I enjoy your videos. Keep it up.

[@TheBusLifeShow]

I like Apple! 😆

[@jakeandcassie]

I don't know if you'll see this being an older video, but if your led tape adhesive fails you can use contact cement to secure them. A thin layer on the tape and the surface, let it dry enough to be tacky, and youll never have problems with it coming off.

[@lolcott]

The bus is looking great! Soon you’ll be back on the road. Oh I prefer sweet tea. 🤓😋

[@MrBaker-fr8xg]

The way this bus looks now makes it hard to believe that it was once a school bus.

[@MoralesssVlogz]

you guys are awesome love your family and bus take care!!!

[@michellebeebelewisfrith1544]

July 4th baby heck yeah

[@debbieohneck2645]

Looking awesome love everything love you guys

[@79z2804sub]

its looking awsome

[@nocturnalpete1]

great thinking on the table with such a big family oh and just saying i think she is having a boy ..big pete from Australia..

[@natewilson9933]

I have the exact same counter lighting!

[@demetriuscarr9563]

U really do good work bro

[@jonettabates8638]

Wow, it seems like yesterday yall were showing us when yall bought the new bus. The progress looks amazing. Any baby news yet?

[@TaylorRose981]

Great channel! I watch all our videos. I'm curious about how you did you know how to balance the weight of the build on all the axles? I hope that makes sense.

[@jameswiththegermanshepherd6628]

I hope your close to a medical facility. As a paramedic I was always nervous when a mother had several births. It seemed like labor wasn’t very long. I had to deliver 2 baby’s before. It’s fascinating but nervous...

[@SteampunkSteve]

Beautiful job on the table. I love how your family all works together on this project. Eight pregnancies? Have you figured out what caused that? lol

[@cleodiebleu8793]

waw kisses to all

[@jimdavis8804]

The coffee machine is the most important thing. Now you need to learn to roast your own coffee and Brand it Good news Coffee. Freshly roasted. You can start roasting green coffee beans as little as $30. Sweet Marie’s.com. I think I smell the coffee roasting. And our On board Barista Brewing up a cup. Can’t Waite. The second largest commodity sold in the Worild is. You guessed it Coffee. Number one is Petro.

[@terrinadeau8965]

I want to try to start roasting my own coffee.

[@paul-bo5dm]

Just one more thing I wish you guys could come to Hawaii but I know that that would be really expensive for you to do that and where are you guys located are used to live in Florida along time ago are used to live in Key West is well I was there during Hurricane Katrina Walmart and there was one more I was there during for other hurricanes back late 90s I believe is When I hit Key West I have a lived in Hawaii now for about 15 years anyway I’m looking forward to getting to know you guys and I know your family you guys are very special

[@TheBusLifeShow]

😆

[@madeinmichigan6773]

After you cut the light strips what did you attach to the end for power? Could they be wired to a AA battery pack or just 110? Thank you and sending Julie a giant hug and best wishes for a less than 45 min birth 😘 Prayers and love sent to the whole family in this wonderful time of new growth in every way 😄 Take care and I'm so excited to see the newest "Bus Life Baby" 💖 and the completion your of your gorgeous home.

[@TheBusLifeShow]

The LED lights are powered by the 12V “house” batteries.

[@flamesvarietystore1439]

So what about the fireplace?? I don't hear you saying anything about it,, or see you make a place for it,, or you change your mind about it?? Anyway looking good can't wait to see the finish,, by the way I like the floor

[@TheBusLifeShow]

Soon enough...😊

[@ThrottleStopRacing]

Looks like the bus is sinking into the ground, maybe move it a foot or so and up on planks?

[@TheBusLifeShow]

The bus isn’t sinking the glass is growing...😆

[@johnarmstead5548]

[@georgeericson4000]

[@sbb6779]

Where do you store the table when not in use?

[@TheBusLifeShow]

Under the seat

[@Matt-zx9dl]

What are you guys going to do with the old Good News Bus?

[@TheBusLifeShow]

It’s sold

[@Matt-zx9dl]

The Bus Life Oh that nice better than it going to a junkyard or to just sit there. You guys are doing so good with the new bus and I really liked the old one too! 😀😀😀

[@46lfries]

Time to quit having babies or you have to buy a double decker lol

[@terrinadeau8965]

Or use both buses to live in...the kids can drive the old bus.

[@NoName-ur5yg]

First comment!!!!!!

[@ckolosky]

A lot of conversions are built for a couple. You have taken this stigma and destroyed it with the incorporating space for the children, yourselves and guests.

[@michellebarham326]

Baby here??? 🙏🙏🙏🙏
