Hi

[@rmlrl1971]

For the kids who cook. Each kid takes one week of the month, and on their day that week, they need to make a new recipe they have found. It is just myself and my husband, and once a month, I try a new recipe. Sometimes I decide on a country, then try to make a dish from that country. It's a great way to change things up.

[@Stephrp613]

you can go to Ireland and get a ferry to Scotland or fly for not too much

[@MommaC1106]

so kool you respond💝😎

[@MommaC1106]

🤷🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️

[@billieolson3903]

For your SJ house, could you change it to a VRBO/ AirBNB? If could still generate some income, but when you want to visit you still have it for your usage.

[@terriehumphries6028]

I think having a car specifically for the teens is a good idea. You would be able to teach them about saving money and buying their own gass and being responsible about cleaning it, letting you know something needs work on it and driving each other around verses asking Mom and Dad. After they get their licenses of course. Okay Shelly and kids, let's hope Jarred is on board with this. 😂 You could just get a large RV that would fit you and the kids to take with you to saint Johns; it would be cramped but you just have to remember it is a trip not a permanent and you could just park it in families driveway. But I do realize with a large family that would be a bit much. It is just a thought.

[@phoebebuffay1566]

For the plates in their rooms, I have a solution! Keep a cart / little table outside each level where there are rooms and have them put their plates on there when they are done eating. Then make it the chore of the person who did not put their plates out to gather them all and take them to the kitchen :) This is how we used to do it at our house and it worked - worth a try!

[@qhaireeniqa7936]

Great idea..

[@bridiesmith5110]

One rule in my home, no food in bedrooms. Of course they ignored it but they were told if I have to come to bedroom to clean up, everything is fair game to be thrown out.

[@ThatColtGuy]

Or just take the dishes to the sink once done with it, and if you can’t do that then they shouldn’t be allowed food or drinks in their room.

[@caitlinmorris7789]

COME TO SCOTLAND!!!!! 🎉 I think you will all love it. It would be awesome to meet you all. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@marizaanvisagie9537]

I love scotland its very beautiful there

[@maryluce8495]

They have cruises that go around scotland

[@alyssakostiew5072]

I'm excited my family and I are going on Alaska cruise at the end of June! My birthday is in early JUNE!❤

[@beckscroft18]

I'm only an hour away from Scotland too so if they show up I need a message haha 😂 ❤

[@fionamckinnon]

Scotland Forever!😊

[@ilovebunnies1190]

Kylie wouldn't survive in Scotland. She would freeze. Mark wouldn't have any socks left...😂

[@nonondriessen]

I second that! And driving on the left side of the road can be confusing too!

[@lillipad3503]

Definitely A NO. Too american!

[@Countriesbabe46]

Shelly and Jared I want to say it's great how you include the kids in decision making for the family ,way to go to the both of you

[@ednanelson1897]

So many parents tell their children what's going to happen so it's refreshing that you ask for their opinion about everything. Although Scotland sounds fun, I think as a family a cruise is the way to go.

[@michellesantiago1235]

They could go on a cruise that makes a a stop at Scotland

[@michellesantiago1235]

Having three vehicles means waste a lot of gas

[@allyriley2095]

i love this so much. love how you give all the kids a voice and a say and have such open and honest communication and decision making in your family. so inspirational. i’ve been watching your family for YEARS and I just love you guys and always look forward to your videos!!!!

[@nikkicox5802]

A Kia Telluride is what you need! I got a 2024 in the Fall and it's amazing!! There are 3 rows and every row has plenty of legroom.... adults fit great in the very back. And it drives super smooth!

[@darci5604]

Thanks for sharing this, it’s so important to have kids to feel like they have a say! Never have I experienced a family meeting of my own, I really enjoyed watching this. And to Jared speaking about money and the importance of saving, you and Shelly are amazing parents! ❤

[@FLWM45]

I love how you’re honest with the viewers about your kids not being perfect like most YT families do. Best family on YT ❤

[@ashleyg0418]

13:06 Aubrey wants to do a cabin, and everyone wants to do something fun. Gatlinburg Tennessee has cabins in the woods and a lot of fun things to do there.

[@SuperGigi06]

Love that idea

[@lillipad3503]

Aubrey is a Fall-baby - totally get het.

[@JustBethTrying]

“People don’t go broke from making huge purchases.” That’s wisdom speaking right there!

[@kashiaschwab]

For Aubrey… I too have a huge fear of water, especially open/large bodies of water. I went on a single cruise & this is what I recommend. I was told an exterior room was best… lies! You do not want to be looking out onto a desk with only water. Participate in all the activities on the ship, and go out on port when the ship docks. When moving around on the boat, travel in the center, and try not to focus out the windows. Cuz yes I have anxiety attacks and got a little sick because my husband wanted to RELAX in our room more than I could handle. Keeping busy is the way to go. I for one don’t ever want to go again, but that’s due to my experience. Do better than me!

[@AdalynWilliams_8]

A red Nissan pathfinder!!!

[@jenniferrigney-munson7668]

For groceries - I had my son put the Walmart app on his phone so when he wants something he can put it in the cart if we approve it then we'll buy it. If we go to the store to shop we use the cart as the shopping list. As we put stuff in the cart we remove it from the cart online. So it's a list we all have access too and see what everyone wants. You can do that for your grocery store if it has online shopping option.

[@ASLLover666]

i just appreciate that you give each kid the time to voice their opinions

[@ruthc4458]

A cruise wouls be great for your family. There’s a lot to do for all ages. A cruise includes travel to different locations (most have beaches), all food and most activities included. Aubrey will love it, trust me. My son in-law was hesitant but now loves to go. We just got back from 12 nights in the Caribbean! 🚢🛳️🚢🛳️🚢🛳️

[@agbs_creations]

I live in the caribben in one of the islands and I dream going on a cruise but can cost it.

[@juliaconcepcion8392]

I'm happy that you are talking about it, cause I be looking for you like every other day, and there's nothing, I appreciate it ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@lauriena23]

I love y’all so much. Your family is amazing. I understand you can’t Vlog every day but I wish you could because it makes my day when I get to sit down and watch you guys. ♥️♥️♥️

[@dawnbrown2673]

I absolutely love that you prioritize the kids' opinions!! More parents need to incorporate this!!

[@lorishaw4923]

I enjoy seeing all the kids not just one dominating your vlogs

[@kiersten7190]

Love your family. Your family is such an inspiration to me

[@ashleycooper.426]

I have a 2021 Kia Sorento and i LOVE it! It has 3 rows and a spacious trunk. Plus it looks very sporty and has tons of safety features. 10/10 would recommend

[@krznb]

I have a Suburban, and I love it! I especially picked it because of the 3 rows and larger trunk space than other cars. When we travel, that extra space really helps! Or even if you go shopping lol

[@Lindsay-D]

Im going to Scotland later this year. Super excited.. we are traveling by train all over scotland. We went through a company so accommodations and tickets excursions will all be paid for already

[@Lindsay-D]

I've never been flown or been out of my country before either. Hopefully I enjoy it. There are cruises in Europe too. Maybe do both. 😊

[@hopehawkins8384]

I can't wait for y'all to get your routine going on your vlogs. I've been looking for y'all for the last week. This is the first one I've seen in this week. I love y'all, crazy pieces, and anything Kylie puts out.💞💞💞💞

[@susanreed9173]

Me too! I check all 3 pages every morning hoping for new videos!

[@karenthomson9120]

Scotland is beautiful. I live in Scotland, lots of lochs for fishing, beautiful beaches and lots of gorgeous scenery.❤

[@victoriamoore4011]

Yea same except the weather can be unpredictable 😂😂

[@annaluse9694]

Awesome family meeting! I would totally be interested in more help with finances and how to save. I am extremely horrible at saving money. It's like the past few years I've gotten worse. It's almost like walking around the store makes me feel better🤷🏻‍♀️ I could really use some help. Thank y'all so much for inviting us into your lives. Lots of Love from NC✌🏼💜🤗

[@vladislavatc332]

It's cheaper to rent a house when you go to St.Jhons. In this way you can sell you house, if you are not going often, renting when you visit it's an option.

[@pamelabounds8593]

Family comes first! I love your vlogs but I appreciate how you value of family time too!

[@judycline4211]

This sounds very interesting!! You know you have such a big family and so many different opinions on all things so this voting thing sounds like it could be a great idea. Can't wait to watch this.

[@meech232323]

I own a Ford Expedition and its actually my 3rd one since 2004. I cant drive anything else. Its big enough for my family with plenty of extra room and the 3rd row seating is awesome. Scotland and Ireland are on my bucket list for sure!! Hope you guys make some wonderful plans

[@joegorbecki2054]

Hi Crazy Middles!! I am a mechanic in New York, and I feel through my years of experience with cars, a Chevy Tahoe or a Hyundai Palisade would fit your family perfectly. They have 8 seaters depending on the model you get, they are both reliable as long as you keep up with maintenance as with any vehicle, and they perform very well. I have never had any problems with them breaking down, not starting or anything like that. My personal opinion... the Tahoe does eat gas quicker than the palisade. But in New York we have some crazy hills depending on the area you are in. Arizona is different so I can't speak on behalf of that state. But those are the 2 bigger vehicles that I personally would get for your size family. One side note... they are both very easy to drive. Just want to put that out there lol. Best of luck with car shopping!!!!!

[@teresadbejarzambrano991]

Keep up the work u guys are the best channel on yt ❤ luv u guys!

[@conniewalker9430]

You should ask them if they want to go to Williamsburg VA . So much history. It's beautiful there. I lived there for 2 years and I'm only an hour and a half away and they have so many fun things for the kids . 😊

[@vernaseace7340]

Get a hotel or a RBnB for a long weekend whenever you go. A couple times a year will not be so costly. Makes more sense than spending over 3000.00 a month.

[@rickkiesman2114]

I agree. I came here to say the same thing

[@lindadriessen9027]

Thank you for sharing this interesting family meeting. It allows to discover some more of the individual personalities and the organisation as a family. It is fascinating to witness the evolution of the dynamics of this group of your kids. Jared and Shelly, for your versatility and mindfulness I applaud you! Scotland/Ireland is worth a visit. But do your research re climate, culture and daily life (driving on the left side) thoroughly. Vlog as you can 😊

[@brendad940]

I just joined the family! I don't know what one is supposed to do on the website but I'll learn! So happy to see another couple of videos so soon! Much love from Wilsonville Oregon

[@aliceborey4602]

I love your family so much! Shelley and Jared, ya'll are such amazing parents! I love how you include the kids with decisions. Love you guys ❤

[@kimblair3034]

I can’t wait to see more video’s , on a down day , it’s uplifting and exciting to see all the silliness and love !!

[@stephanielevesque-sj9ox]

Agreed, when I’m having a bad day or stressful day I turn to crazy middles or crazy pieces

[@sarahebobo]

We have had a Toyota Highlander for so many years and we replaced our 2007 Highlander with 2019 but our 2007 was still in great shape and hadn’t needed any big repairs or problems with it. I have 4 teens and they are all happy with it too. They are very safe and reliable and I highly recommend;y recommend it.

[@alikillion9802]

Kia carnivals are 11 passengers and are a mini van style but a little bit more sleek. I would look into those.

[@lucyblackk]

As a Scottish person when I heard Trey say ‘Scotland’ I was shook. Yes come to Scotland it’s beautiful ❤

[@maceykintigh8601]

I feel like you guys would get into a routine, if you did 3 to 5 days a week, breaks are okay, but you guys are so loved by those that watch. We'd love it!

[@maryhopcroft4263]

Omg if yall want a cabin, come to the smokey mountains in east Tennessee, you have Dollywood theme park (dolly parton) and sooooop many activities, it's a huge tourist place and omg it's soooo fun and the cabins are beautiful

[@beckywiese2270]

You can take a cruise to Scotland. See a little bit of it and see how the weather is. Aubrey cruising isn't bad. I been on a few cruises and they can be fun.

[@fionamcphee1337]

As someone who lives in Scotland, please come and see us. You will love it!

[@triciaharvey9936]

If you have an opportunity to travel to a place like Scotland , I'd definitely jump on that. You can take a cruise anytime. These are the kind of experiences to be grateful for if given a chance to go.

[@deto324]

i agree

[@marjoriemoore3546]

My husband and I have talked about the “ I don’t know what I want “ …..there needs to be a restaurant with that name…lol.

[@surferbob9419]

Scotland is amazing. I feel like whatever you guys are comfortable with vlogging. I will watch whatever you put out.

[@crystalbenneyy9723]

cruise are fun there you can go to the beach lots of activities for all the kids its like being on a hotel you will love it

[@GS-kv3zy]

I love love love how you parent, your an amazing family

[@ashleyriley1179]

Love love love the long videos. And the dish and silverware stuff I get it ours is missing too lol.

[@carwashslayer4235]

8:48 Jacob and his Counter Argument is me at a work meeting. Most of them all say the same thing 10 times and it gets the same response.

[@theresalacour9600]

I love and look forward to your blogs but I understand that life happens too!! Love you all ❤❤❤

[@Nan-vx4hf]

I live in Scotland and the weather is terrible where I live most of the year. If you want sun go on your cruise. The Ohana adventure are in Scotland and they would be able to tell you, x

[@froggoonalillypad8440]

For the car situation, we have a Ford expedition you can have 2 rows in the back or you can do captains chairs but it’s a very big car and can fit lots of ppl hope this helps!!

[@kimp9377]

We have a Buick enclave. It gets awesome gas mileage as well as has 3 rows of seating

[@abigailbailey6849]

You guys are so fun. Thank you for sharing the family meeting 💕 it’s been a while for me.

[@lesleycox1333]

Yes we have stores like home depot here in the UK / Scotland for home DIY

[@joemiller401]

There are cruises that cover Scotland and Ireland too - do both at the same time.

[@katstonerock]

My kids are adults now and say we had the same thing everyday. I rotated meals every 2 weeks between 8-12 meals. Meal planning was hard with 2 kids, I can't imagine with your family!

[@marlenelehano4996]

Oahu Hawaii is expensive but it’s beautiful n I wouldn’t leave this island for any other part of the world. Blessings to all…

[@Brenda-f9y]

Aubrey I'm with you! No cruise for me either. I won't even go to a beach near an ocean I'm so scared of it and have been since seeing the movie JAWS at 5 years old after my older brother who was babysitting me let me watch it. In real life I am paralyzed from the waist down and wheelchair bound but in the nightmare I had after watching the movie I was able to walk and was walking near a boat ramp when I slipped and went clear to the middle of the ocean. I looked back and saw a shark chasing me so started swimming as fast as I could to shore and as soon as I got to the beach I noticed the bottom half of my body completely gone. No oceans for me!!!

[@notsayingmyname9529]

I've had this thought about y'alls pasta salad since the beginning! I introduced my kids at a very young age to "balsamic" dressings and it is acquired. I always wondered your ratios or how they all love this! You put sugar in it!?? When I make the food a little too spicy I add sugar! It looks great, but i get your point it might be weird at first! I just can't believe you got that many kids to love it!!

[@dawnbailey4455]

If you decide to go to Scotland, maybe you could do what my son and his friends did when they visited Ireland. They rented a houseboat, and hired a captain to navigate. That way they didn't have to worry about changing hotels and dragging their things from place to place. They had an absolute blast, and saw some wonderful sites.

[@traciek3946]

I'm so glad you are going to vlog more, You guys get me through my day Seeing Kylie fix up a castle would be gold Love you guys HERVEY BAY QUEENSLAND AUSTRALIA

[@kaylapugh9622]

Loved the Vlog u can’t even tell u are on the water on a cruise the kids would have a blast they have teen clubs a roller coaster water slide and basketball courts and games that all the family can do I keep waiting on y’all to announce y’all are going to adopt again I just joined the family

[@louisemullins9258]

Scotland!!! Hahaha the weather is super unpredictable... Wrap up super warm....

[@kimberlyhyde3040]

My husband solve the leaving dishes in the bedroom with our daughter. He took her bedroom door off the hinges until she got in the habit of returning the dishes to the kitchen. It took about 2 months.

[@amybynum8962]

Happy mama, happy family and husband🙌🏽🫶🏽👍🏽✌🏽🫵🏼👏🏼🙋🏽‍♀️

[@cataudiobook6257]

I think the teens can do the shopping and cooking when it their day to cook. Set up a menu on Sunday for the whole week.

[@aj27550]

You guys should definitely come to Ireland it may be small but it has the most amazing mountains and beautiful beaches and coves during the summer, you should visit Howth and balscadden beach (Dublin)they are so popular during summer because there are so pretty.

[@sharonj7274]

Aren't the bugs huge and plentiful in Ireland and Scotland?

[@megancoleman9061]

I love all the crazies!!! You guys are amazing individuals, and I would love to meet you all! I come to the page every day to see if you have posted, I would take 2 a week haha! New brunswick, Canada 🇨🇦 would love to have you all here this summer for a visit!!!

[@angs2587]

You can go to beaches on the cruise they stop on multiple islands with beaches

[@jackierice4254]

We are from England but spend a lot of holidays in Scotland which is beautiful. The literal only ‘fly in the ointment ‘ in the summer is the mozzies.

[@KirstyM100]

Scotland and Ireland do have heritage listing on buildings like castles so you're limited in what you can do

[@bonniesterritt6419]

Love watching videos. I also see with you having teen drivers and as busy as your family is you really could use another car. I think you should keep the van for the times you need to take most to all the family. Love your family.

[@michelandree]

Love the cabin in the wood. Dont like be on water to long. For car. I thing hyundai santa fe. Or à litle vanne like à Dodge caravane.

[@TheSarahlou]

Visiting Scotland is an amazing idea. I live in England and have to say Scotland is absolutely beautiful there is lots of beautiful places to visit. Its also the same for England Ireland and Wales there is lots of castles from every century to visit and see. Just remember the weather in the UK is crazy in one day you can have snow rain hail and glorious sunshine haha. Just be prepared xx

[@alexandrahall1886]

I've been missing seeing you so been watching older 1s from 8yrs ago

[@lindyadams.9755]

I LOVE ❤ my Honda pilot. 3 rows and a big back for when I go SHOPPING!!! lol it drives and rides so well. Also doesn’t have many recalls. I really hope yall vlog more! I look everyday for y’all’s videos!!! I wouldn’t mind if cutie Cody was in more of them either. 😅😂🥰

[@savannahsnaps6]

Buy in Scotland as its connected to England and Wales for driving to see other places and also there's a store B&Q it's the UK version of home depot

[@katihill8117]

I love my Toyota 4Runner but the only downside to using the 3rd row is a very small trunk

[@teresacox9426]

What about giving the house to family so you could then have a place for visiting. Could Destiny live there? Maybe do pasta salad once a month on a set day like always on the 5th. As for meal planning, maybe those who have their meal plan ready on Sunday get some kind of reward.

[@SarahBevan-p2l]

Weird configuration of the house, some bedrooms in the basement

[@rachel......2222]

I have a 2019 Acura MDX and I have 3 kids I love it ! It's really great on gas ! I love the third row seats too

[@kaelat6316]

We just bought a Volvo XC90 and looove It! It has 3 rows (7 seats). Not too huge, but great space for our family and extra trunk space.

[@txbearlover1]

I drive a kia sorrento that I love....it has 3rd row seating. I get great gas mileage and it is great for budget minded families.

[@katieamarshh]

Cruises are soooo fun!! I went on one around Portugal Spain and France last year and it was unreal!

[@yvonnearmstrong469]

Also when are you doing the vlog where you buy all the food again from certain places

[@marenfjestad6834]

With a cruise all your meals are built in the price. You get a group rate. If you doing a trip to Scotland you will be paying for all your meals, hotel rooms( think 5-6 rooms) and everything you want to do

[@hannahhopkins8195]

I just bought a Kia Serento. It has 3 rows and doesn’t feel like you are driving a huge SUV. I feel like it’s a compromise having the 3 rows but also being more compact and easier to drive for new drivers.

[@Lowkey.Jules_13]

I love Scotland so much!! I went there in summer 2023 and it was so fun! Also the food is amazing and the whole country is so chill and awesome. If y’all go I hope you guys have fun!!

[@michellebrooks424]

Hello crazy middles thank you for sharing another amazing video your family is absolutely amazing and beautiful I appreciate you thank you again for sharing ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@karenjoyce7719]

Three comments 1. I've been watching all your old videos and brings tears to my eyes seeing how little they were 2. I love my Toyota Highlander 3. Cruises are amazing

[@kerryburns9878]

Loved this video! It is great to see how your family navigates differences of opinion. 😁

[@brittanyfegett7612]

Why did the Money Management moment make me feel attacked??? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@sengvue8924]

Land Rover Defender, great family car for road trips, offroading, and for driving on dirt roads. Also seats up to 8 people.

[@ryannebergsteijn5573]

You can do Scotland and Ireland in one holiday. And also include England and Wales and see bits of the whole place depending on how long you spend there. All together it's just a bit bigger than the whole of Arizona. It's beautiful!❤

[@lornahutchens4598]

I live in Scotland and to do it properly its not doing it at same time as rest of uk.. you can easily spend a week on East Coast another week driving the nc 500 and you've not touched the west coast or the borders etc ..its going to feel very cramped doing Ireland and any of England at same time

[@ryannebergsteijn5573]

@@lornahutchens4598 I know. I don't think they are going to spend a whole holiday driving with so many kids in one van. Meant it more like if they wanted to visit the two castle's they talked about and see some other stuff, they can do that easily. Not if they're going for a few days, but you can see a lot in like two weeks.
