I started watching the time when Jeremy left his job as a police Officer and you guys started your journey to build your new home. You guys accomplished a quite a bit in the last few years. Take time to enjoy it. Cause the kids will grow up quick and time goes by quick.

[@GoodSimpleLiving]

❤️

[@marilynharper9307]

I started watching you around that same time and am so amazed at all you two have accomplished in the past few years. You have created some of the most wonderful memories as you built your own little paradise. Your generosity paying it forward is awe inspiring. It’s so nice to see a young couple with such GREAT values. Am enjoying your podcast as well. I especially liked your conversation about the state of affairs in policing these days. I had both a husband and a son in the field and it truly can take a toll. You are living your best life now. Treasure these moments. It does go by all too fast. Love and many blessings to you and your sweet family.❤

[@bobbyphila623]

A new follower I found your channel a week ago little bit older than you guys a young 61 don't feel like I'm that much older. But watching your Channel with your children your animals your clean living you guys are truly blessed. The first one I seen you guys asking for donations at first I went I'll go here we go again. But the see you all fill the trailer up and transport them toys and gifts what's truly amazing truly amazing what you do. And really nice watching you build the additions on the home the barn Etc. God bless long life

[@dennislamers986]

Do you guys have an electric or a hammer tacker stapler? Watching you gave my hands cramps. Inslation went quick almost like you've done it before.

Love the overnight time lapses, and the one after finishing all the wall insulation, with the evergreen covered in snow, is magical. As is the shots of the kids enjoying the snowfall, catching flakes… 💕 and Kenji eating the snow off the patio. 😻 Seeing Riley… tears of joy seeing how healthy he looks. I hope he continues to get better.

Horses also stay warm by mobilizing food. Together with a thicker coat they do just fine in the cold.

[@GoodSimpleLiving]

Yes, more frequent grazing and good food.

[@karencody1826]

I love videos. This time of year is so hard for me. I lost my sweet momma several years ago and I was heartbroken. This time of year we would all gather together and just be a family. My 3 boys are grown and married and have their families and their own traditions. My husband and I are all alone. I haven't put up my tree since my momma passed. (My husband and I lived with her so I could take care of her after her stroke. Plus she had dementia.) It hurts so bad some days. Momma was my best friend. We went through a lot together. I just miss the old days. Thanks for the video,it made me smile today. Now to wait for next week's video.

[@GoodSimpleLiving]

I'm so sorry. I hope you can find joy in the glow of a tree again ✨️

Remember 15yrs ago, I went out of my way to get a barn for my 2 Horses. First big snow storm, they ran outside and put their butt's into the wind. stood there getting covered in snow and ice???? I was more worried for them than me but it never happened. We moved from the desert to the mountains and it was a real learning process for me. Horses have a wild side in them, right

[@GoodSimpleLiving]

For sure!
