We (Pat and Cathy) met/recognized Katie and Judah at the airport in Honolulu on 12/17. What awesome young adults. Katie has a special warmth about her; her bright spirit shines thru her eyes as she speaks. Both are truly a bundle of sunshine.😊

[@OurTribeofMany]

Oh yes they told us hi from Pat and Cathy!!

[@gramnenew6196]

Love this! ❤

[@shordae]

That’s awesome 😊

Thanks for watching!

Wishing your family a very Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄Praying that your mother will be able to come for a visit.

[@haleyheb1996]

We use a plug-in electric fireplace in our bedroom! It does use some electricity, but we have not noticed an increase in our bill. We use it to knock off the chill before bed and during the day if needed and it has helped tremendously! I turn it on in the mornings and it is so, so cozy!

[@mayravalentino4682]

Awww this was a nice Q&A and updates! You guys are so wonderful together! Thank you for all of the updates!

[@encyclopediaofelizabeth]

I think you will find that your kids are a lot more comfortable with driving with all the gaters and quads. My family also used church parking lots to practice in before we got on the road, having an empty space or an acerage for those first few lessons is so helpful.

[@SherrieRead]

My favorite things when you guys sit down and do a video together is the admiration, love, and respect you have for each other shines through every time and you two together make me laugh out loud the way you guys bounce off of each other. Merry Christmas enjoy this awesome season!!

[@laurenpatton3941]

I just love you guys so much. Sarah, you are always smiling. It is so refreshing 😁😁 nothing more beautiful.

[@VanessaPage-ic2bd]

Good morning Sarah and Solo! I really love the Q&A videos. The two of you are so connected with each other, it is truly refreshing.

[@marykaymacshane1001]

My favorite KZbin family!!

[@stephaniecamille947]

Same! I'd rather watch them than watch tv.

[@catherinehunter3509]

Good morning. Love watching you and your family. The love of God shines through. God blessing on your family.

[@rubyjackson5630]

We had a donkey, and it was great for keeping coyotes and other predators away from our dogs and things! They are a great asset to a homestead!

[@pattywhite5437]

I love this family You 🙏 two are made for each otherl love when a Father speaks about his children Momma you got your hands full but you are doing an Amazing and AWSOME JOB Love it when parents work together 😊😊😊😊😊 Merry Christmas

[@lindascott6637]

We have fans that sit on our wood stove, made of metal, and the heat makes them turn and move the heat around the room. Not sure if they have ones for fireplaces but ours work great! No wires to run!

[@ednabart1199]

You two are so refreshing to watch. 🥰

[@RachaelSparkles41]

Thank you for posting about Gabb! We just got one of their phones to give to our kids for Christmas. Great video and thanks for the tips for teen drivers. Ours are currently 12 & 10, however I know that the time will fly by.

[@jamiemarsh3422]

Merry Christmas to you all 🎄! I’ve enjoyed the recent recipe vlogs, but have missed Solo in the kitchen. Hopefully with the new home office we will get to see him more often 👍. Hugs to Gramma 🤗.

[@ajdavis3798]

Love your videos. Thank you for sharing your life and family. It’s encouraging to me💕

[@kellygrundhofer5212]

Solo and Sarah thank you soo much for the link to the service. I was really touched by it.

[@lisaparker3751]

Great Q & A time! I enjoy seeing you both together, you both have & show so much, respect and love for each other. Y'all are a blessing! Thank you!

Praying for your mom to be here in 2025.

[@cmconcon]

Been watching for MANY years now My 19yo walked in the room and said “mom you’re really loyal!” (She’s seen me watching for so long now)😄 I enjoy all your content!! Your niche in the best way! Love this season you are in!

[@OurTribeofMany]

awww, thank you!❤

[@heidibarker2120]

My youngest child is 11 and my oldest grandchild is almost 9. I spend a lot of time with my 7 grandchildren (youngest is only one month old). It is a blessing having my grandchildren right on the heels of my younger children. I never really went through a strong yearning for more children since we are experiencing two chapters of life at the same time. I love watching the dynamics between my younger children and their niece and nephews. God has continues to bless us with lots of babies to love on.

[@alisien6227]

I'm the youngest in my family and I grew up with my nephew and he's 11.5 months younger than me 😂

[@tiffanygossett3447]

Lots of questions and lots of information received. Happy Holidays family ❤

[@louannpatton8754]

My Mom and oldest sister in law were pregnant at the same time, so my nephew is older than I am by 2o days. We grew up together and all through out school everyone thought we were brother and sister. He always thought he should be my uncle since he was older. I truly love your family and am so happy that your life keeps moving forward with God. Your new home is just beautiful and even more so with it being full of children. A house is not a home without love, and yours is truly full of love. God Bless you in this wonderful season.

[@Patricia.711]

My youngest daughter and my oldest grandson are 3 years apart. I was pregnant with her when his mom, my oldest, was graduating high school. Neither my youngest or my grandson where planned but God had different plans! ❤

[@sharonlchambers3555]

Good to see you now advertising mobile phone service for children and youth. It was always disconcerting when you talked about your kids being out driving without gps, and sometimes being lost. And it was really scary when Sarah and Noelle were out on the streets in Japan with no mobile phone. Really glad to hear that you are being more proactive in providing communication services for your kids when they are not at home. In the old days, we always carried coins for the pay phone, and they just aren’t available anymore.

[@k.annasavage6851]

So excited to see this and watch it good morning to your whole beautiful family!

[@kimmyjo52]

I listened to that message at it really blessed me! I love when you guys minister together!❤

Hi beautiful family love the painting in the background 👑💖💖💖 happy holidays

It hit me after my wedding the next morning that I had became not only a wife but a step- mom to six kids. Five girls and one boy the youngest.

[@onlyyeshuasaves4679]

Yikes

[@mkinder9557]

Sarah, when my youngest brother graduated from high school my mother breathed a sigh of relief and said - I’ve been making school lunches for almost 40 years! (38) it was fun, but she was done! 😂😂

[@somersetflower]

That's hilarious. I wonder how the contents of the lunch boxes changed over the years!

[@lindalong8403]

Thank you for this video and updates. It’s always great to see you two together. Merry Christmas to you and your family.

[@dianeleitzow7294]

This has been a fun video!! Thank you ❤❤❤

[@kelly-annejenner486]

I’ve just started yours and solo preaching at church and I have to say after watching you and following you on here for many years I feel that I am on the level as a friend/peer and listening to you talk felt like you were just having a conversation with me, not preaching at me so what you said meant more because you want me to have what you do, like sharing something. You’re very good at it and I really appreciate you sharing it and I will definitely be following on and watching each week the whole service so thank you. Hope what I said makes sense x

[@OurTribeofMany]

That’s great!

[@nancycolbert2703]

How do you follow their church? Is it online?

[@tinatippin5705]

You made perfect sense. I have had the same experience. Blessings all over and through.

[@julien2912]

@nancycolbert2703 they put a link to one in their church services in the description of this video. Go to the description and click on the link. It will take you to a KZbin video of their Church sermon on their church's KZbin channel.

[@MeMelovesjesusnfamily]

Thank you for your time and sharing with us. Thank you for the link to your church family. Truly enjoyed listening to you share your faith life too. I can't imagine your life, but so appreciate what you share. Thank you for using your hearts to make us better! May you continue to be blessed. Merriest Christmas to you and all your family.

[@thehamfamhomestead]

Love the frames in the background! The gallery wall turned out so good!!!

[@lisat1825]

I’ve always heard that it is very beneficial to have donkeys in the field because they keep the wolves and coyotes away from the animals. Plus, the cross on the back of a donkey is representative of the cross and Jesus.

This was so much fun. Thank you both. We have older and middle aged kids, mostly boys and we live in a tiny space with lots of grace. :) It's great to feel connected to you all as you do life in Christ together. Hugs and blessings from cold and snowy northwestern lower Michigan. xoxoxoxo

Hi Sarah and Solo. Ty for this video. It was great. I love your family. I've been watching your church services. I love that as well. I feel like you're sitting in a room talking to me. I'm really enjoying hearing Solo preach. He's amazing. God is definitely using him. Ty for sharing your lives.

It’s so lovely to see you. I hope you have a very happy Christmas and that 2025 is the best you could wish for. You’ve been so busy for quite some time. Is it time to chill and distress? I love your videos and this catch up was just what I needed. 😊❤

[@greyeye5345]

Thank you for this Q&A video. I often thought about what it must be like to be the father like Solo in this situation, so I am not surprised to hear that he expressed the realistic responsibility about the care of all the children and his family, not to mention animals. I'm sure it's a lot to carry, so I respect that and admire him for his courage. It is a realistic and responsible concern, so I am glad he mentioned it.

[@debramage739]

Hope you had a great birthday Sarah🎉😊 Love these q and a's. Have a blessed Christmas. Love Deb from Melbourne Australia 😊

[@starrperry6395]

Love all the vlogs but it’s such a treat to have you and Solo together. You are such great role models for your children and others on how relationships should be. The positive energy that Sarah exudes in every vlog makes any day better. Thank you both 😊 Merry Christmas

Nice update! I’ve been a supporter of a mid-winter trip for years now. Winter can really be hard mentally and physically and SAD is real. Maybe just you two could take a trip for Valentine’s Day weekend 💡.

[@BeverlyBussey]

I love looking at your pictures on the wall in the background. My kids love to hang picture groups. You can always use 3 M tapes rather than drill holes if you feel you may want to change picture groupings.

[@rosa4563]

I just love hanging out with you guys

[@sheriturner6118]

[@CretivityAj-nr3dg]

Love when the two of you have the time to sit down & do a video for us. I can't tell you how wonderful it is to see a "normal" you tube family. I know families have their challenges at times, but I almost start to think, what has happened to people & the way they act & raise their families & the poor children are a product of their raising. So enjoyed your video

[@Shawn-hs7qp]

I always like it when you two are on together. Love to see your interaction and how you compliment each other so well! God's hand Is certainly shown through your marriage.

[@delindawilliams3935]

I can only imagine how much more fun you're having in a bigger kitchen. I am looking forward to seeing more of the meal, preps. I am so curious about how to milk a cow by hand; I think I would love that experience.💖 I am really interested in hearing about financial planning, and financial freedom, therefore I'm looking forward to that video.👍🏽👍🏽💖💖

My dad taught me to drive, starting in an empty parking lot. We drove forward in a circle. Then, backward through the same circle. Until I was comfortable with how the car moved.

[@Reichenbachm]

Such a beautiful family, great video!

[@Shelly1990]

We have goats too! Do your research about them as they are not as easy as we thought. We had a hard learning curve at first, now we’re more comfortable with raising them-having kids etc. Kidding season is happening soon at our farm.

[@somersetflower]

I learned so much more about your lovely family from this vlog. I love all your posts Sarah, but you and Solo together was so fun and heartwarming. What a team😊 Thankyou. Wishing you all a Blessed Christmas Season and lots of fun for the children. Thankyou for friendship in sharing. Love Janice 🇬🇧 👵 xx

[@catherinetozzi8056]

Thanks for update,,,,,,Happy and Healthy Christmas to whole family! 🙏🏽❤️🌲

[@Riiseli]

Awesome video! This was definitely fun. You have excellent plans lined up. Hand stripping a cow before attaching the machine generally helps with milk flow. I don't know if you got the strip cup, but if not I will still encourage you to get one. It's very good for catching possible problems early. It is somewhat common for milk cow farms to have a wet nurse for their calves. It usually works just fine, so them nursing each others calves isn't particularly surprising. You discussed difficult road conditions previously. Now I don't know what type of tires you have for your cars. I talked about this (not you, but the weather in general, because it seems to be a big problem for many US drivers) and the general consencus from many US drivers with experience of both was that winter tires will help more than going with a say AWD. This obviously would require two sets of wheels or sacrificing some performance in the summer. I've driven 3PMSF tires to the ground over one summer, it was fine, but it will definitely wear them out faster. We usually have two sets of rims, one with winter tires and the other with summer tires. Changing them for the winter provides a lot of practice with it, which is a good skill to have.

[@RAM-eb2te]

❤❤❤ Welcome to winter dairy life! 🐄

[@sabrinachalupiak2759]

You can get a fan that sits on top of the woodstove and runs on the heat. No wiring required and they work amazingly well.

[@FraggleRockFever]

I bought a Wall Fireplace for my bedroom, it's beautiful, keeps us so warm at night, we really don't have a need in the daytime unless we are sick and in bed, I haven't noticed any increase in my electric bill. also using the ceiling fan above your bed on he Winter setting will help a lot. If you had your corner stove going and did have a Ceiling fan it would help to circulate the air. Living in a HUGE home, a pointer I will give is ceiling fans during all Seasons helps with the Power bill. you have so much wasted air not circulated. Just always have i turned in the correct directions, and they have such beautiful ceilings fans now. Hope that helps. God Bless

[@nan14397]

I see all kinds of homesteaders that just place a small fan on their wood stoves and they say it makes a world of difference, really spreads the heat outwards and upwards you may not need to rewire, at least you can try the wood stove fans and see how it works, would at least help until then anyways❤

[@jan.shifferd4181]

I hope you get another baby, Sarah! I know What you’re gping through. I’ve tried to have a fourth since I was 40 and have had 3 really bad miscarriages (requiring hospital care) and serveral early miscarriages but hope is hard to let go even though I know I’m too old now at 47. Being thankful for the wonderful family I have helps with the longing (and grieving) and transition into a new season a lot. ❤ from Sweden
