No matter what life throws at you guys you always pick yourself up and carry on! Much respect to you all and I’m happy to see life getting back to normalcy

[@TheHolgates]

You are the best. Thank you so much!

[@joanne_luvsdisney534]

I’m so sorry you guys have had to go through all this especially after getting back from your cruise… so much stress. You will get through these trials as long as you have each other, your doggies and kitty and of course, all your Kermits! ❤️❤️

[@TheHolgates]

Thank you so much!!

[@suewalters9822]

What a mess you came home to! Exhausting to start over again!!!!! I hope things are going better now. You took spring cleaning to a new level. Kenzies basketball game was a fun distraction. Your Kermit was hilarious. Love it. I think now is a good time to declutter, get rid of unused things feels good. Have a great Sunday!!

[@TheHolgates]

Things are going much better now.. thanks, Sue!

[@Tallulah-xs1mu]

My sister in Australia just had a storm and a tree came through their roof, no, power for a week and such a mess. I think they’re tired of BBQ’ing and takeaways. Your situation is different but I know the stress that comes with living in chaos. It gets better!

[@TheHolgates]

Oh no! How awful for her. So sorry!

Hi Diddy! Just wanted to say Thank you so much for continuing to share the cruise vlogs & updates while you all have been trying to get settled in to the new place.

That is so awful to happen to you after you come home. I hope your kitty isn’t too stressed. They are creatures of habit. Dogs are much more adaptable. We always have someone stay with our kitties. Hope it all works out! Just found your vlogs love it.

[@TheHolgates]

Thank you! She’s doing amazing! ❤️

[@cayleenasworldi3647]

I actually once had my house flood. It was during a horrible rain storm and the people who were fixing our roof didn’t put the tarp on correctly. I walked into a whole entire house that was just gone. Literally took us almost a year to get it fixed cleaned up and to get back into it. It was horrible. Hoping that you get back in quickly, love your content you are amazing.

[@sarahdore7884]

Ummmm…. Sorry about the “let’s sniff butts” box 🤣🤣🤣 I get BarkBox for my dogs every month and the boxes are always funny so I passed it along. Didn’t occur to me it could be scandalous hahaha. I’m sorry you’re having such a hard time finding furniture and handling the insurance stuff. That sh*t is so frustrating. I hope you find something you love, I can’t wait to see what you pick. Please send your rain to me, rain makes me so happy and we haven’t had enough. We’re getting fires already, in February…. I hate to see my besties feeling gloomy 😢 I have Frisco on my weather app so every day I check what your weather is, it looks like it’s been summer, I hope you’re feeling better since this was filmed 🤗🤗

[@TheHolgates]

Oh no! Sorry that happened to y’all! And thank you so much!

Hi Holgate Family! Stephan, you have to stay positive about your situation. Take pride in what you have accomplished in the past week. Bryan has gotten the garage all sorted out and you have finally moved all your belongs from your old place. Yes, you still have some issues with the insurance company, but this too shall pass. You have a great support system in your friends and have many on-line fans wishing you well. Your vlogs have shown us that your families are their for you. Glad to see that your life is continuing on with Kenzie cotillion lessons and after school activities. As the song goes "Grey skies are going to clear up, so put on a happy face." All the best to the Holgate Family ❤🧡💛💚💙💜 James🏳‍🌈 p.s. You are still receiving unexpected gifts and cards from your fans. You touch are hearts, so hang in there!
