That viewer's comment was just so true and it was wonderful to have given them a shout-out since it must have made an impact to you. Gabby is coming along great and I can't wait to see the countertops installed and to see the tile done in the bathroom. Although I'll be sad to see this project come to an end, I'm sure you have others lined up for Jeremy (lol). Have a blessed week!

[@ruthw1079]

The siding needs to be done on the garage yet

[@ruthiebabe3638]

I remember reading that comment. 😊

[@larrycaughron1321]

Your homestead is becoming a showpiece for what good old-fashioned hard work can do. I've been meaning to tell you all the horse apples you've been taking off the pasture really need to stay put. It will do so many good things for soil and the grass. 🇺🇲🚜🇺🇲👍👍👍

Love the Happy & Blessed shirt and the CK shirts with the flags. You guy's absolutely ROCK! Also, please, whoever is reading this; will you pray that neuropathy leaves my body soon. This thorn in the flesh is costing my family everything, as I am unable to work. Thank you, Royal Family. 🙏 God bless you richly, in the name of Jesus! Amen

[@bowed305]

What an incredibly beautiful way to start a Saturday morning. Loved watching the work get done outside and inside, loved watching Ludo being right there in the heart of it all, loved watching Eli pursue his dream, and most of all, loved y'all sharing your positive mindsets about it all. I hope you realize what a blessing y'all are. Thank you!

[@GoodSimpleLiving]

Thank you so much 💓

The viewer who made that comment is so very correct. Eli is so committed to rodeo, good for him. The progress with Gabby is fantastic. I love Ludo, he's so cute. Can't wait until the next post. Have a great week.

[@Denise-ln9tz]

Melissa I just love how you end each video with so much love in your heart for all the things in life that you appreciate. There are not many people in this world that totally appreciate the little things in life anymore but you are such a wholesome and wonderful person and it really shows in each video. Thanks for sharing all your love for life with us all because this world truly needs that!!! Love your videos and love watching you share your dreams with us all you are making a difference!!!

It is Saturday baby, let’s goooooooooooooooooo🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉.

All of the progress on the addition is getting exciting. I can really see the character of the rooms now and it’s beautiful! Ludo is super cute.

[@GoodSimpleLiving]

Thank you so much!

wow the house looks amazing Jeremy is just not playing at all building the 2nd home

[@fletch61]

Can't believe how quickly it's all coming together !

[@jennylittle6852]

Y'all are doing such a wonderful job with GABBY and I love how it is turning out! Also, I just cannot get enough of Ludo!! He is the cutest pup and I find myself smiling and laughing at him constantly. Have a great week and God bless!!!

[@EvaVilla-pm5mv]

Perfectly said Melissa. Your channel has been a pleasure to watch. ❤God Bless

[@GoodSimpleLiving]

God bless 💓

[@brookiebakerie]

Thank you for sharing that comment from your viewer at the end. It's true. And it is a good paradigm shift.

[@MargaretUIUC]

Ludo obviously wants to climb that ladder. Give him a tool belt and some tools and put him to work.

[@shelliregnier1712]

So exciting to see this addition! It's amazing to see from begin to end. I love to see Eli's passion for whatever interests him. Thanks for sharing! Have a wonderful week!

[@countrylifetales2700]

It's awesome that Eli loves exploring new activities and possibilities. Doing new things, to see if you like them, is an excellent way to learn more about one's self. He's going to be an awesome man one day, full of confidence and character.

[@sharonlundquist8433]

Loving the trim in the addition, it's beautiful. Love watching Ludo, he is adorable. Keira and Eli look so at ease on the horse. Love the video this week Melissa.

[@GoodSimpleLiving]

Thank you so much!

[@catZ468]

Hi Melissa and Fam! Just wanting to compliment you on your Timelapse in your videos Melissa. It is just so beautiful! You have come so far on how you are shooting your videos. Congratulations on everything you and your family have accomplished!! Just amazing!!

[@CraigClifton-wz8ck]

Great shirt Jeremy.

[@bowed305]

Yeah, can't believe an earlier commenter said negative stuff about it. Just because some folks misuse it's purpose doesn't mean we abandon the cause of backing the blue altogether, especially from someone who knows what it's like to walk in those shoes. I love seeing those flags and those shirts.

[@larrygizinski9378]

Your channel is the most organized that I have seen, keep up the good work.

[@charlotteforrester3118]

Love the color of the wood trim, doors, and windows! It is so beautiful. Can’t wait for the counter tops! ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@earlaagaard8175]

Living in gratitude is the key to a happy life. Congrats!!

[@beckyjones6956]

The apartment looks fantastic. I see bright pillows on the furniture and dishes on those shelves! Eli riding the sheep is adorable. One of my favorite events at the Fair.

[@klaire74]

I am constantly admiring that dark wood throughout your home(s). Such a mood setter. And is like you have always an elder to look after you - a sense of security and safety. Doesn't matter in what shade of darker wood, is stunning. Your little bundle of joy is growing, and your boy is really a doer. He will succeed in everything he wants. I loved the comment of your wise subscriber, for sure is the desired perspective. Have a great weekend everyone!

[@cherlgolja5402]

Love your pup more pup please ❤

[@Mr05Chuck]

The pup makes sure he makes it into the shots lol.

[@jimjasper9314]

Time for a mother daughter road trip to pick up some special items for the new place. Looks great.

[@maryeliason1504]

Ludo hangs out just like Keji did. So adorable. Love your family. ❤

[@judycarter8199]

So much hard work but it brings progress! Ludo thinks he could help if he could climb that ladder-precious pup.❤️

[@trudievanjaarsveldt6759]

Hi there from South Africa. Butt on chair, coffee in hand and it is my favourite time on a Saturday afternoon (17h00). Every time the pup is in a shot it seems it grew more from the last shot. You have some seriously fantastic planning and decorating skills. The addition looks fantastic. Good luck for the week and see you next Saturday afternoon.

[@GoodSimpleLiving]

Thank you so much 💓

[@dalandamcgee8752]

Great shirt Jeremy and thank you for your service. Having had brother in law and two nephews serve the police force I respect the blue line. There are always idiots who wish to put a different spin on something that others respect. Continue to wear your shirt with pride as intended, you earned it and still stand for what it was intended as!

I know it, but he got 2 solid 8 second rides afterwards!

There's the old saying, " It's not worth it if it isn't hard. If it's worth doing,it's worth doing right. Im an avid crocheter , If i make a mistake in the beginning, I'll pull a hole project . Because if it's worth doing, it's worth doing right. It looks great your house! Itll look even better looking at it finished when you know it was done correctly! Good job!!!

[@DLRyoung]

Same here! I start a project look back and say… on my… time for yarn vomit because I have made a mistake and no way will I be happy with it. So out it comes to fix then continue on. People don’t understand how much work goes into an item you have created. God bless and happy stitch counting!
