FUN IN ISOLATION! : Adventuring Family of 11

[@divinespiritztacogirlmessa7608]

Whenever I first started watching this channel Eve could barely talk now she can hold whole conversations she is doing extremely well in your loving caring family ❤️ stay safe during this time knorpps

[@beccaphillips4689]

“Bye Dad, I love you!” Such sweet children. Oh my heart 🥰😍😘

[@Ashlee1985]

That was soooo sweet!

[@JASteelman]

Awesome that you didn’t automatically all freak out about the snake, and you took the opportunity to learn with your kids. I would have run for the house. Lol And I love the late night cornbread feast.

[@Baumgartnerrrrr]

I am a herpetologist! Its definitely a watersnake :) a lot like a garter snake (which also actually swim)! That's a pretty cool find!

[@nataliafrancisco9211]

I was thinking it was a brown water snake. They are known to live on North Carolina and eat fish.

[@SillyMe2718]

It is so great to see Elijah...he has truly matured while in Japan. Glad your all healthy and staying busy. Blessings!

[@angeleay3067]

Eve's speech is improving so much.... or I've just watched so many videos im just picking it up better. But i really feel like she is getting clearer. 😁💖👍

[@melissaholman2605]

Its really nice that you capture so many memories that you can look back on later in life.

[@jojob211]

I’m a 69yr old retired gramma who’s been following your family for a while! Love your family! Just want to put in my two sense here. I am blown away at where you live right now! My gosh you have a whole forest right behind you ! A camp and a river too! What an amazing place to grow up!! Are you sure you want to build that other house? Lol the snake incident was wild!!

[@daddywantsabitmoresimmy]

They're building it cause they're only leasing the place they have now, they actually weren't allowed to buy this house, which was the original plan, because they don't have regular jobs, which sucks.

[@urfaveinternetauntee]

The Knorps: watching the snake 🐍 to see what it’s going to do. Having a lesson on snakes. Me: I’ma head out now 💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾

[@TheTuellfamily]

cimogm, I had no idea snakes were so invasive and destructive! That’s awful what you have had to deal with. I guess because you aren’t there year round they decided they would squat!

Great job at updating anyone who might be new to the channel. Glad you are all safe and healthy.

I'm watching all of your videos and I have so much respect for you. It is clear you are raising your family in such a fabulous atmosphere filled with adventures and most of all..love. Im one of 12 and know the advantages of such a family...it only gets better. Peace to you.

[@mkenz4227]

Sorry for the commentary as I'm going, here, but this. is. AMAZING! Homeschool lesson FOR THE WIN! I loved watching that whole thing play out! And the cheering when it got it swallowed! 😂 Love this so much!

[@vivianwilliams2216]

Congratulations Daniel on making your delicious looking cornbread! So happy the family enjoyed it!

[@lola-littleoldladyadventur5353]

I would love to have to have a river like that behind my home. Such a great place to relax. What great memories are being made there. And Megan, even with no makeup, you are beautiful!

[@rebeccaalbrecht771]

I am so proud and happy for you that you all have created this beautiful spot that brings your family closer. Your seating area around the fire is great! I love how the teepee turned out. The blue and red marks on the trees to indicate the trail are very smart.

[@caliprisock]

I have to tell y’all, I always almost cry every time I see the into and see Megan and Elijah hug. I have three sons and it makes me miss them so much through this virus mess. May we all learn and love more !

[@britaneelilly8147]

Loved the snake bit! I have been teaching my 5yo about the food chain and this was quality learning for her! My 3yo just stared like she was watching a trainwreck. Lol

[@jessicalewis714]

Loved the snake documentary eating his lunch. That was very awesome to watch. Would have been amazing to actually see. I love how you almost always are making after dinner things and end up having midnight snacks. Love it. 😊

[@krewetkaaaa]

wow, your backyard with woods and river is incredible

[@Mtthyman]

What a fun unschooling lesson!! Thanks for turning it into a learning experience instead of running away. 😘 happy spring

[@themillerfam]

You guys’ back yard is amaaaaazing!! That Teepee and camping area is incredible.

[@tammy4him42]

THAT is one of the most amazingly, awesome AND terrifying thing I have ever seen!! I am a Western NC native, I learned to swim in the Davidson River in the Pisgah National Forest, I thought “going swimming” meant going to the swimming hole at the river until my cousin took us to the swimming pool at the Elks Club one summer. Lol! We live close enough to go tubing at Davidson River 3 or 4 times a week to cool down after my dad got off work and I NEVER, EVER saw anything remotely as AMAZING as that snake eating that fish!! What an AWESOME lifelong memory!!! Y’all need to submit that footage to the NC Wildlife people!

[@makeupmama1984]

I liked that this video had a home video feel more than a vlog feel. Very organic.

[@tvommy]

The kids got a free nature lesson!

[@marielinejuillard9495]

You are all so much fun !!! Love your videos !!!

[@sherbrownsf2]

Water snakes gotta eat too..they dislocate their jaws to eat their food whole... Then they slowly digest the food and don't eat for a few days.... They run from you all... Can you tell I lived on a farm with both a creek and a big pond? A glorious childhood with a lot of education...was livin' my best life.

[@melissalahr6691]

Hello fellow unschoolers doing a phenomenal job! That was like National Geographic in your back yard.

[@mom-mawm8192]

Country girl here who has lived in your area. Snakes are tricky to identify sometimes because they become dulled before shedding their skin. Good idea to have a school class on watching for snakes...also..watch for the turtles in the water too. Have fun.

[@Goldiloxandthe3bears]

Your kids are going to look back at this time with such amazing memories.

[@alexandraschmidt4487]

Mike goes under and one of the kids: “okay bye dad I love you” my heart ❤️

[@HomeSweetHomeschoolLife]

The snake with the fish was awesome. I love how y’all show that learning can happen anytime.

[@NinetyOneAdventures]

Your Quarantine adventures are just as fun as your normal adventures..... You guys are just awesome no matter the circumstance 🤗

[@hayleycharles997]

Thank you for showing your children how to observe a snake❤️So glad no harm came to that beautiful Northern Water Snake who only wanted to enjoy a good meal 😋

[@priscillabarr4783]

Such a beautiful blessing to have a back yard like that❤ I'm really enjoying your adventures in your backyard 😊

[@AM-sx4es]

Love watching your videos, have been subscribed for a couple years now! Hope your whole family and friends are doing well under the current situation, both physically and mentally- also lovely to see Elijah back, even if it is under these unfortunate circumstances :( Hopefully once this situation dies down he will get to continue his mission at another exciting location!! A big hello from York, England!!

[@Dpbantam]

That was a fun day for you all! There is nothing better than water to relax! The snake was a cool thing to see. Thanks for sharing...I have never seen a snake eat a fish before.

[@debcarpenter8519]

Just a water snake! Probably a good idea to look up North Carolina venomous snakes, so you can identify them(with photos). The fish in his mouth? That's a good thing. They can't bite with food in their mouths! LOL!

[@monamorgan8614]

Deb Carpenter that’s what I was thinking too. The snakes are crawling out of their winter “nests”, which three of the deadly ones are copperhead, water moccasin and diamond back. By clearing the land you are likely to see many others as are wasps and hornets

[@debcarpenter8519]

@@monamorgan8614 yes, and I'd rather see a snake than those pesky wasps! I can count on them chasing me, as opposed to the snakes! Stay safe!

[@wilmacguzman4405]

Calm looking rivers on the surface can have strong currents underneath. Glad to see the younger kids with well-made arm floats. Do you pair the children up to watch each other?

Some of these comments are so hilarious to me! 😂 Obviously, a lot of your viewers aren’t country people. We live near AL/FL line and seeing stuff like this is an everyday occurrence for us! You have such a beautiful piece of property! Our little creeks and streams don’t run that swiftly here.

[@gaillittle1700]

I am out went right past the snake part, and I wouldn't be swimming in that river again. Watching this right before I fall asleep, I hope I don't have nightmares.

[@peacelife]

I'm amazed the moment I hear or see one if I dont have to make sure it not going into my house. I'm already gone. Amazed how u guys were still in the water. I wouldn't step foot in it again doesn't matter if it venomous or not. "Nature show lesson" hahaha. You guys vlog are entertaining. Love how u guys have big family, big forest now, exploration everyday, always have new projects to do.

@Zartelle Rose Im from New Zealand, beaut day here, im in a no sleeve top the window is open, and like i said its a beaut day but its officially winter here supposed to rain later this arvo.

[@lorelletravis2650]

Still piles of snow in Northern British Columbia too. 😊

[@meiraloraduncan8953]

I live in North Carolina a few hours from the Knorp family in the foothills of the mountains and our weather can change drastically throughout the day . In the “winter “ it can be down in the 20 degrees Fahrenheit overnight and in the morning and by noon it’s gotten up to the 60s. It can also plummet 40+ degrees from a high of in the 80s which is what happened on the beautiful warm days we had last week. This is especially common whenever it rains. I am a retired elementary school teacher and a parent and picking out what to wear can be a challenge with our crazy weather combined with the heating and cooling system in the school building. The only thing I miss where we live is the lack of snow. We occasionally get snow , but mostly we get a wintry mix of snow and freezing rain that coats everything with ice and can be quite deadly outside and inside because the electricity goes off and many don’t have heat or a way to cook. I wish that we got more decent snowfalls of more than 6 inches more often.

[@tinasmith9550]

I am sooo jealous! All of our trails and parks in Ontario are closed and where I live it is being enforced with $650+ tickets. It’s much busier where I live so it’s for the best but can’t wait to get back out again. For now I will have to live vicariously through you guys 😊

[@rebeccaalbrecht771]

I'm so glad we don't have a lock down like that in the Netherlands. My husband and I have been going on long bike rides through woods in the many Dutch nature preserves. In them are old, several hundred year old, enormous trees planted in rows. It's been very good for our spirits.

[@meiraloraduncan8953]

The snake is not a cotton mouth or water moccasin because it doesn’t have a yellow tail. It’s either a Brown water snake or a Northern brown water snake neither one is dangerous. I love what you have done in the woods. Would love to see you do more with the teepee sewing triangular panels of the canvas drop cloth would help you create a proper cover for it and then the kids could paint designs on the outside. Put a plastic tarp inside the teepee with the plastic going up on the inside of the poles to keep water out. This is the kind of things I did as a child with my siblings,parents and friends. We had woods on three sides of our neighborhood that separated it from a number of farms. Over time most of the farms were sold and new neighborhoods were developed, but a large section of our neighborhood was kept wooded behind some houses in the lower part and behind the lake and ball fields and community clubhouse and pool. Our neighborhood was once a large farm with an orchard and the main road into it was actually the street I lived on and much of the street that wasn’t part of the neighborhood was still a large wooded area with the occasional house. Depending on the weather we could take a shortcut through the woods to get to school otherwise you just followed the sidewalks because the back gate to the playground was at the end of the block one street over.
