It's Time to Move In

[@jessieeads6569]

Welcome back, so very happy your move went smoothly. Wishing you all the best of luck 🍀 in your new adventure. Thank you for sharing your journey with us. 💞

[@spencerreid1459]

Such a uplifting spirit you are Julie. Need more positive people like You! ❤

[@Crystin1982]

I agreed

[@amandagibbs5597]

20 years from now, when this house is nothing but memories in a picture frame, you will shed tears over those “quirks” all over again, just for a different reason. Enjoy the holidays and special occasions you’ll share here! Life is short 💕 good job mama!

[@magnolia31611]

I completely understand some of the upset over the dirtiness, and damage to the house, BUT that is a beautiful cul-de-sac! Like one right out of a book, or movie! Definitely an area y’all can make feel like a true home. I hope y’all make many wonderful memories while you’re there❤️

[@sharonfeatherstone8219]

Was sad to see the tears in your eyes when you were giving the house tour. You’ll make it an amazing home for sure - two years will fly by!

[@Susan_Deckard]

The way your kids show their appreciation over even the little things is so nice to see. I loved how you said you were going to compare it to anything else. Comparison is the thief of joy. I loved your whole outlook on it…it’s only 2 years. I often find myself comparing and then it just gets depressing. It’s a very nice home and I know there will be tons of love going into it and love is what makes a home. ♥️ Will you have another video of once everything is put together?

[@meganyounger4842]

I've lived in my house in KC for close to 20 years and had cracks in walls (and driveway) repaired numerous times. Sigh. But the scorching summers to freezing winters, plus not enough rain to too much rain makes things shift around a lot. I can say this last year was terrible for that, my floors actually feel tilted. Lots of people will do mud jacking to try and make things level for a bit. Seems like good sized rooms, so hopefully you guys are settled in and the kids have made new friends to bring laughter and joy to your house. Moving is hard work, you've done great.

[@nancypullen2939]

It may have a few flaws (don't they all?), but it's really a lovely house & looks like a sweet, quiet cul-de-sac. You're probably homesick, missing what is familiar and what you'd already built. I've been there and had to put on a happy, positive face for my kids. I know that you know it will all be fine and you'll make a million happy memories in this house. That lump in your throat will ease and you'll find your groove.

[@kalalockhart09]

Oh goodness Julie… you have such a beautiful family! My husband was in the military for 10 yrs and to say we’ve lived in some questionable homes, is an understatement! Haha! But what I learned is “home is what you make it”… the important thing is you are all together, happy, healthy, warm and fed. I used to criticize the homes we would move into down to every crevice. One day, shortly after we moved to new place, my kids were little and I just watched the excitement on their faces. They were so happy and didn’t notice any of the things I criticized in the home. They didn’t care. To them, they were on a new adventure, with new rooms, a new yard, and looking forward to making new friends. That’s when I realized that they only learned the things I would say out loud about our home. And I stopped doing that. Because it was their home too and I didn’t want them to feel like anyone was judging where they felt safe and comfortable at. Now we own our home, and when I don’t like something, I change it and keep the opinion to a minimum about why. Because I know I’m probably the only person in our house that noticed it in the first place and had a problem with it! haha! I think your home is adorable and will be homey and comfortable before you know it! I love older homes because I think of all the memories that were made there before me. And you’re only adding to the storybook of the house! Hope you all have happy holidays and stay warm!

[@mary.1984]

Oh the kids level of excitement when you pulled up to the house, and then going inside. So precious.

[@heidiclarke2333]

I always think empty houses look awful, as you can see every little defect etc then once the furniture is in and it starts to smell like home it all seems so much better, love that view out the kitchen window 😊

[@kathleenschoultz]

It is a nice house. Dont be stressed. You always need to change things when you move anyway IN ALL HOMES AND APARTMENTS

[@sallycroft2191]

So glad the children are enjoying new school. Moving is so exhausting. No doubt you woll make the rental your home. I love the cul de sac and view of backyard. It will be great for the children and you seeing them at play. Sending ♥️& hugs to you all.

[@sandyc6569]

Hey for a rental i think it's in pretty good shape!! Once you get yur stuff in and it has all julie's touches in will be beautiful for sure!! So happy for yur family!! Congrats! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@lonelinessinmilan6486]

I'm married forty one years, with two grown children and we've only rented, so i can tell you that this rented space will never be yours. Focus on the kids, not the house. The house will shape memories, just the same.

[@Bogwater156]

I think this rental looks more modern than your old house . Looks more cozy with that fireplace and the kitchen is way nicer too .

[@Chell1496]

So glad you all made it there safe and making your rental a home. Can’t wait for more videos to see your house become a home like you do so well! 🍂 so glad that the kids had a great first day at school! What a great comfort to you and Landon as parents to know they will all love their new school! 🍂

[@Cornerstonewtl]

I'm really happy you made it there and you're safe. Thank God. You've probably been there a while by now. We moved into a less than stellar rental almost 2 years ago in a city that isn't what we wanted. Our previous homes were owned by us and well cared for. (We were traveling and 1 of us got deathly sick and needed to be close to hospital. Well, we still need to be here. We are so grateful for the roof over our heads. We've made it a home for now. When we leave, we will be thankful for this old home for keeping us safe and warm and we'll be so grateful to move into our own home again. What am i saying? Similar situation. I understand. Its a means to an end...but i think you'll end up loving this tired home with all its flaws because of the laughter, love and memories youll share there. Sending hugs and love from northern Canada❤❤❤

[@mary.1984]

I think they moved like two or three months ago??? The videos ( for obvious reasons ) have been pushed back with uploading.

[@Cornerstonewtl]

​@@mary.1984 I think you're right❤

[@HB-wn4mb]

Loved the video and seeing how you choose to look on the bright side of things. In time, you will make it your own sweet home. Glad the kids seem to love it and they liked their school!!

[@margeellewellyn938]

After spending 22 years in the military and moving so many times with our family of 5, the best way to approach each home is, making g it your. Putting your things in the home, continuing with family traditions and parental attitudes will make this move as lovely as it can be. Welcome Home Drew Crew!!!❤ love from Northern Idaho!

[@carolmccormick1628]

I know your Family is going through a hard time. It is good to see you back on KZbin.

[@PiNkNeOnz]

Julie and Landon, it's nice to see you and the family. I am so glad the kids love the house. My husband was in the active duty military for many years. I feel your pain, but like you said it's just temporary and it's going to be a lovely home. The home is the heart not the four walls.

[@claudettemalespina60]

So nice to see you settling into your new home. I hope all your days are filled with love and joy. 💐🙏🙌

[@elizabethcabrera5718]

Julie bless your hearts . Arriving in a new state is exciting but still very rough . Especially when your used to having your own home and then you go into a rental . We went through this transition almost 19 years ago from California to Texas . I hope it has gotten better for y’all .

[@brittanymcguff]

It’s so hard to move into a rental after buying. But speaking from experience you will make this home yours and have the best memories!

[@irenemathieson4229]

Welcome home drew family. Soon you will be unpacked, the house cleaned, and then you will feel more content. You have the right attitude, it’s only for two years and I predict you will make this a happy home. May your new home and all who enter it be blessed. 🙏🏻🏡💕

[@jadebur]

Julie. I love the house. I think you will make it such a comfy home. The street even looks pretty. I was so glad to see Landon's parents there to give you some help too. 🙂🏡

[@tmuir2801]

Love your new home, especially the neighbourhood, and back yard. Super happy for you and the family Julie. Great tips. Thanks for the share. Moving forward and onward!!! Bless you.

[@janetdamboise6225]

Awe I so loved seeing you all today! Your new rental looks great and so don't you all!! I really hope to see more of you guys and I hope you all are doing well!!! Love and miss you bunches!!!❤❤❤

[@englishrose1957]

❤so nice to see all of you again. Have a very happy and healthy time in your new home🏡🏡🤗

[@_Nat_A_]

I’m watching and seeing you point stuff out. I have a prediction, in two years, the landlords are going to be thanking the two of you for how much love you put into tat home and added value to it. Maybe ask them to fix the cracks, and repaint the walls. Ask if they mind if you landscape the gardens a bit, and make it home. I have a rental, and my renters love their home and I encouragement to make it their own!

[@DRMTTJ]

Happy for you all and know that you will truly make this house a home for the next two years. Love your vlogs.

[@maureenlarsen2399]

I think this next chapter is going to be AMAZING . You have such wonderful patience and you've Got This !!!

[@marenslife8181]

I love your new home ❤ and the neighborhood. You will make so many new and fun memories there 🥰

[@cindygraham1357]

This has been so exciting to finally see your new house!! Julie, you and Landon have a talent for making a house a home. I know you will put your cozy touches on this house and make it special. It was a joy getting to watch you all again! I have missed you!! 🎉❤

[@tennesseegirl2985]

Thank you so much for sharing your new home. I have missed you all. ❤

[@KitstoKradlesNursery]

I think it's beautiful, especially for a rental. Once you clean it up and move in, it will be very comfy & homey! The holidays are coming, decorating & new memories will make it home!

[@ivysweets]

So wonderful that Landon’s parents were able to be with you guys during this move!

[@kathyparker9683]

So excited your moved. You have a great team. I live in St. Peter’s Mo about 3 hours from Independence Mo. your in a good spot. It was heart breaking to watch you all carry that fridge in.

[@jane.elizabeth.mckenzie]

I love watching your videos. Your family is a bundel of joy . keeping your family in my prayers while you go through this hard time .

[@Mydaintyhomestead]

Life is so much better with a Deru Crew vlog! Thank you for sharing such sweet videos!

[@TheHandy24]

I can understand your feelings, but overall it looks like a lovely house in a lovely neighbourhood! Hope all goes well for you there. I'm continuing to think of you all and send lots of love.xx

[@dawnhaton247]

🥰😊❤🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻 So glad to see how happy you and family are.. Good luck on your new job, Landon. Hope to see more of you and your family...

[@terri9547]

I think Julie could make any place a home.They way she said she will look past the imperfections is such a great quality!

[@9384cows]

So, so glad you are back. I have really missed you guys! I hope you are very happy in your new home! Please tell your mom and dad that they are missed and that they are loved, too. I hope they are doing good! 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@cindyb8775]

[@big33bug89]

I love seeing your home come together.❤

[@sonjahurst9726]

So good to see your beautiful faces again! Continued prayers for your entire family

[@cheryldemouey1068]

I just moved from GA to WA and we picked our house online and had the same shock when walking in. We’ve been here almost 2 months now and it’s clean and our stuff is in and decorated and it feels more and more like home everyday. I pray the same for you and your family! ❤

[@deniseryan4146]

What great in-laws you have Julie! And you know if your parents were in the country, they would have been there as well! Happy home-making!

[@novasoto5092]

Happy you made it to your new home. I'm sure that by now you and your family have added your own special touches and it will be a great home for the next two years. Hugs and Prayers to you and the Family 💙♥️💜💚💙💛💖

[@debrawronker4932]

I love how Emma just gets in there and help out with everything it was cute with Cooper wanting to get his room done first I'm glad you made it safe hugs and prayers and love always♥♥♥♥♥♥🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@birdervaughn5435]

I love your positive attitude about the house. For two years,you can do this. What matters is that your family is safely together.

[@KickingItWithTheCapers]

Love you Julie!! It’s so good to see you guys back! Your positive energy and good vibes motivate and inspire so many. For the time you are in the home, I know you and the family will make beautiful memories! Much love from South Carolina!❤

[@janiearledge8174]

I’m hoping that the cracks in the walls aren’t water damage BUT I’m so happy for you guys for how clean the place was when you moved in! That is rare to find in a rental!

[@keepsmiling1982]

Glad you got moved. You'll make it home it's what people do. Anyplace you lay your head may not be perfect but it's home. Keep Smiling :)

[@_Nat_A_]

It is so nice to see you. I hope this brings you some normalcy, peace and a bit of happiness.

[@jessicafromtexas2868]

[@heathercreates8406]

Cleaning a house makes all of the difference! I think it will be amazing!! Congrats!!

[@navjotbal6904]

Thank you for sharing this amazing video.Onto making new memories in a new home Awww Millie is so adorable. Can't wait to see the house tour.God bless the family 🩷🩷

[@conniemckenzie7801]

Looks like a great back yard. So, house has some settling cracks and needs some cosmetic work. People have this with brand new homes too.

[@sandyc6569]

😊👍

[@kerryharding5587]

Moving in is one of THE most stressful and exhausting things in life. All the cleaning and kaos ☹️ But your hearts must be full that the kids had a good first day and made friends. Your homemaking skills are one of your biggest super powers Julie and Landon. Thanks goodness for sweet family helping out. I hope you feel much more settled 🥰

[@JulieDeru]

☺️ thank you so much!!

[@annekennedy8127]

Moving is always chaos for a while....

[@Cherie-y9s]

You guys made it im happy for you glad and welcome to your new home❤

[@brendasurmonte6096]

So glad to see you Julie and your beautiful family. It’ll all work out!! Much love always!! ❤❤❤❤❤

[@dukeblockington1179]

Something enjoyable for your family. Just focus on the family.

[@Natie9229]

The good thing about renting is you get to look at the cracks and say, “not my problem!!!” 😂😂😂 that’s how I’m looking at it for me.

[@candyhr4152]

When we rented our little 1920s house in independence, we never saw it till we moved in. The photos were just so cute. We ended up being able to roll a ball from one side of the house to the other without pushing it because the floor was so slanted!!😂 All is well.❤

[@robinnieto2703]

Julie, I know you don’t own the house but with your skill in decorating and making the house a welcoming and beautiful home, it’s going to be nice. Emma has such a fun side to her, loved her little clip there in the kitchen.

[@EllieKinard]

Phew I can't imagine this move for you all. Prayers that it feels much more like home now that you have been moved in for a little bit.

[@mrscrocks6558]

Julie you are amazing. A huge task to undertake, moving to a different state with 5 young kids ! You remained calm and positive and were able to support Landon too when he was having a wobble. You are super woman!

[@angelinakinsel9899]

Julie it's so nice that your posting again miss watching you guys .you guys are awesome. May God keep you guys in a positive attitude .

[@claudialeger3208]

Looks like you have projects for the next little bit but from chaos comes love and home. You will whip this into shape soon. Kids adjusting is half the battle. Onward!

[@debbiealtman5373]

It’s just a rental. Not perfect but , when you buy a house you’ll get what you want. I like the house. Good luck.

[@Micah-sj7hd]

Love this video! I’m sure moving from your beautiful home; to a rental is hard. Prayers for you all and your adjustment to the move, may God bless your family ❤

[@Traci-o5b]

What a fantastic attitude you all have about moving! So inspiring! I Enjoy your family so much

[@rawlyroo5975]

Wow moving is a lot to process but you all did an awesome job . It will be so exciting to settle in and make this house a home together.

[@teresanorris4769]

We u see u-pack 13 years ago and it was great. The cost was so much more economical than hiring a company and better than renting a uhaul and driving yourself.

[@beckykukoski8678]

It is November. I don't know if this is an old or newly released video but it is so nice ti see you aand your happy family again. You are always so positive.

[@brandybarnett9953]

It’s different to go back to renting once you own. The homes in Utah are in better condition than other states

[@michaelleary9233]

Cooper sounds like me, whenever I moved, I wanted my room set up immediately. I think it helps calm the anxiety about the whole process and gives you a place to relax.

[@laurasorrell9713]

Thank you Julie and Landon for sharing miss you guys

[@lilysgram5886]

I have to say your kids are wonderful. They are happy, helpful kids with positive attitudes. Your new home seems great for your family and you will make it yours. Best of luck settling in. Moving is hard and you made the best of it. 💞

[@gaylelamborn1457]

It's a foundation problem with all the cracks

[@tammyhart6023]

Love your new home! I have so missed seeing you guys,but totally understand with the move and all that’s going on in Utah.

[@julietchristensen3957]

As long as you got the fridge and water line hooked up, that's enough. Its so stressful to have it empty at first, but it will get better.

[@JulieDeru]

It definitely got better and those first 4 days without the fridge were not fun ;)

[@LinaRempel]

So precious, so many blessings on this new journey of yours! ❤️

[@brittnifigueroa3593]

We moved from California to South Dakota and bought a house unseen. Husband and our boys drove with the animals and picked me and our girls up at the airport. Got a chicken from Costco and air mattresses for 3 weeks when the movers got delayed in weather. Welcome to the Midwest ❤

[@claudia7653]

Loved this video the excitement it was so sweet❤Hope you will have a good 2 years!

[@VermontFan1]

Oh Julie! This was so so gratifying. So happy that you’re getting settled - and there is no doubt you will make this a wonderful and happy home while you’re in KC! The best thing is that the kids love their new school and made new friends already. Can’t wait to see your next video with things put together and comfy cozy! So happy you and Bonnie are back, as difficult as I’m sure it was to hit the restart button. We love you all so much!!! (PS. Sassy Emma is so fun to watch)❤️❤️❤️

[@Oyimtalkingtoyou]

Why does every house need to be perfect?? Not a big deal. That yard looks unbelievable!!! Lovely place ❤

[@Cherie-y9s]

Most old homes come with flaws our home is old has lots of things needed to be done .y parents love to fix up old homes❤ i understand
