Florida Getaway!! (I finally met Lynette Yoder!)

Uploading a day later... video took so much longer to get finished than I had wished... and this pregnant momma needed some sleep in there, too! 😜 hope you enjoy coming along with our family on our recent getaway to Florida. Have a blessed day!

We want to know how your speech went at ladies night ?😊

You should of recorded your speech and shared it with us 🙂

What a sweet Video !!! Great memories So much fun , your son is so sweet and cute and loves to laugh. Can't wait to see him as a big brother .

Good thing there aren’t any gators there!

Zander giggles and giggles before he ran after the birds!!!

[@brianhudson7822]

OMGOODNESS! I SPIT MY TEA EVERYWHERE. WHEN THAT LITTLE GENTLEMAN SAID "WHY" IN RESPONSE TO NOT THROWING ROCK'S AT THE DUCKS. WE ALL KNOW THAT XANDER HAS NOT THE FIRST MEAN BONE IN HIS BODY. I KNOW THAT I MAY NEVER MEET HIM, BUT I KNOW THAT WITH YOU AND NOLAN AT THE HELM HE WILL GROW INTO A PRINCE OF A YOUNG MAN. YOU GUYS ARE JUST ROCKING THE PARENTS THING. GOD BLESS YOU!

[@theMennoniteMom]

Lol thank you. He asks why for absolutely everything without thinking. Takes some patience 🤣 had someone tell me they left my channel cuz he asked why he shouldn't throw rocks at ducks. Made me laugh. They obviously have never had a child go through the "why" stage

[@stuckinmopro8533]

Sometimes I think that Zander’s smile is going to stretch so wide that he will actually grin from ear to ear! His joy and happiness is so apparent!

Thank you so much for sharing this trip with us. I can't explain how it touched me. I haven't had a vacation in so many years and right now with all the stress in the air, it mad a serious difference to me. It was like going back in time. It was so nice to recognize again how beautiful life can be - IS. I watch your site as often as I can. I come from southwestern NY and so am very close to the Amish life here. Love it. Hope your feet recovered quickly and you are feeling good now. I hope the delivery goes smoothly. I am sure the baby will be beautiful. Love to all.

So sweet! There is nothing better than a vacation with little ones! They are so excited for everything. We are going on a family trip to Europe this year with our 5 year old grandson and all his uncles and aunties. I'm more excited to see it through his eyes than my own.

[@alfiesflower8218]

Hello, what a beautiful, beautiful video, zander at the beach just did it for me, watching him on that beautiful white sand and the sea just looked so inviting. His laughter and running around, to feel so much freedom, it looked amazing and I loved the flamingos. It is an honour that you fill that you can take us along with you on your journeys, I will never be able to afford to go to these amazing places, but seeing it through your eyes and a child’s eyes is truly magical and I feel like I am there with you. Thank you so much, to all of you. Keep safe and be lucky me lovely 💞💞💞

[@joanneconnor4319]

love hearing your beautiful laugh and giggle when watching Xander and Nolan's mild mannered enjoyment of you and your son. Xander is gorgeous! xx

Beautiful footage of your son and making memories as a family!

[@robinlee3018]

I just loved the montage of Xander at the beach. The combination of regular and slow motion,, along with your use of the “through your eyes “ lyrics timed perfectly with Xander looking directly at you was magical. You have such a talent for that kind of work. I hope that your speech went well and that your poor feet have had a chance to recover. It took about a year after my first pregnancy for my feet to return to their usual size!

Thank you for sharing your vacation with us. I love the beach and knew exactly where you were. So glad that you visited with Lynette while you were there. I kept hoping that you were slathering on the sunscreen for all of you, that sun can be brutal to our skin that isn’t used to it. Praying for your family and the new bundle of joy!

[@elainekleinsasser4307]

I was delighted to meet and visit with you Jeannine at the Ringling Park. You and your family are even sweeter in person. Ira was impressed to see himself on your video! Thank you for including him. We have been waiting for your Florida video. Now we have to go back again and see some of the things you did as well. ❤️

[@janetsways4176]

I was thinking what if one of the seagulls held its ground… what a surprise that would have been! I just love his energy. Seeing him so concerned about you getting chomped was touching. I was listening to the Christian radio station the other day and the question a listener had was how do I know when God is prompting me to do something verses me willing myself. The host used the same Bible verse and followed with look for an open opportunity. How wonderful that you had an open opportunity that provided to other and to your family. Im so glad you got to meet Lynnette, too! As always thanks for taking us along.

[@theMennoniteMom]

Thank you. It can be hard to know what we are to do. Yes, not sure what Xander would've done had the seagull just stood still 😄 no fun in that!

It was hilarious how Xander grabbed his daddy’s pants when that first flamingo came up. So, so cute. When my youngest met his first peacock he was 18 months old and I do not know what possessed him to grab a feather and that bird chased him. It was hilarious and to this day he will not go near a peacock! Thank y’all so much for all of the wonderful smiles and laughter.

[@kimmerrou]

Well this seemed like a wonderful opportunity for your family. The warm weather and beautiful sunshine was probably a wonderful break from the wintery weather of Pennsylvania. I imagine you probably did just great at your presentation for the ladies retreat. 😊 🦩The flamingo feeding was pretty cool! Having never been to Florida, I didn't know such a thing was possible...of course, with all the sorts of parks that you can go and do such things, I should have figured one could. 🦩 If you take such great videos with your GoPro, the video would be unbelievably amazing to watch. I think you are very talented in that area...I'm not, but I appreciate those that are. Xander's enthusiasm is so sweet...I love his overactive imagination and concern for you- if the alligators chomped your leg off- "chomped" really cracked me up. Thanks for bringing us along!

Thanks for taking us along... I enjoyed the trip! I never had a desire to visit Florida, but I must say after watching all of Lynette's vlogs and now your trip, I think I may have to put that on my bucket list. The Pinecraft/Sarasota area looks like a lovely place to visit with much to do. Wondering if all went well at the lady's retreat? I applaud you for your willingness to speak, I would have been terrified and probably would have fainted before I uttered a word. Until next Friday have a wonderful week. Peace and Blessings, K.

I’m glad you shared your pregnancy and your Florida trip ! No shame ! Everyone has there own flare and different personalities, personally I loved each one .

The gardening ones are the number one for me, since I’m out of the mothering stages.

[@kathleentoothman4826]

just watched your sewing video from 2019. I am an experienced seamstress and admire how well you do being mostly self taught.. I have a couple of pointers to make it easier, I am all about easy and short cuts .Check to see if your machine has ability to change pressure on the presser foot. The manual will tell you. Less pressure keeps knits from pulling and stretching. Next, if you use a lightweight interfacing on the fabric edge it won't curl when you are putting in the zipper. The serger can make the easing gathers on sleeves or anything go smoothly if it has the differential feed.. These things will make sewing easier and more joyful. Again, you do a great job just wanted to make sewing easier for you ..Believe me when I say a sewing mistakes can make me "lose my religion" sometimes. Happy sewing!

[@OccamsRazoretta]

Aww, Jeanine, so glad you, Nolan and Zander got to enjoy your vacation and women's conference. Glad you got to finally meet Lynette -- I follow her, too. Christ's blessings on you in the remainder of your pregnancy.
