If you have any more questions, let me know! I can try to answer them! 🧡

[@Organizedmeals]

Megan Fox Unlocked We are Christian and in many of our churches it is either encouraged or required to attend a marriage counseling class. Usually it’s the pastor and the couple- he asks questions to bring up those ‘harder’ issues before we get married. Did you guys have to do that? They ask questions on how many kids, finances, schooling children, if one spouse was severely sick, ect...

[@MeganFoxUnlocked]

We did go throw a weekend Marriage course with a group of about 6 couples. It covered everything from communication to budgeting.

[@KiwiKrusader]

Right before you said "it's kind of hilly here" I was thinking oh my gosh everything is SO FLAT! I live in at 9000 feet in the south west!

[@janebleakney2293]

Are there any traditions that you carried on during your wedding? Or anything that is particular to a Mennonite wedding?

[@erinkimmel9479]

I live in an area with lots of Mennonites (Ontario, Canada). I've always wondered, what is the dynamic between old order Mennonites and modern(is that a term?) Mennonites like you guys? Is there tension or something? I occasionally go to a pretty liberal church that is anabaptist and part of the MCC (mennonite central committee). It seems anabaptists run the gamut.

[@Kathryninchrist]

Aww! Thanks for sharing! Such a great “dating story”. My husband and I met in Bible college and had similar standards to you two, but I’d say we had less support, especially from family (which would have been nice). We started “dating” with the intent to marry at 19/20 (I’m older) and got married at 21. We have been married 17 years, and are both serving the Lord wherever He leads! We have 6 children and my husband now pastors our church! Marriage is a wonderful adventure! I’m glad to hear another couple who looks at it that way! 🥰😌💗🙌

[@henny1fan561]

Megan I have so much respect for you and your morals and values. You are a great daughter, sister, wife, mother and friend. You should be proud of yourself and your choices.

[@momtypes]

A friend calls arguments “intense fellowship” and I think that’s an accurate statement. I have lived in Lancaster County my whole life and loved your Spring tour of our beautiful county.

[@bethhoppes6388]

Love to hear stories of how couples met and when they got married. my husband and I were 20 when we married and we have been married now for 36 years. We are best friends.

[@deliciawratten9385]

This was so cute! I loved seeing all the places that are woven into your story!

[@MR-jq7bk]

This is super cute! I love hearing how people met or fell in love. Thanks for sharing. (Josh cracked me up when he said, "I dont remember anything." Regarding the fight/argument question.)

[@grandmashomemade9204]

Me and my husband started dating in November 1984 got engaged in January 1985 married March 1985 and just celebrated 35 years and still love him more and more each day....He's my best friend

[@SarahLizDoan]

[@brendafoster2424]

Wholesome, and very refreshing to watch.. thank you for your content! :)

[@cookieisacutie]

Such an interesting glimpse of your dating/engagement/marriage journey. Lancaster Co. is lovely.

[@lynn7348]

It was a great idea to take us through Lancaster. I almost forgot the stay at home order...Thank you!

[@johnburkholder5936]

This was so much fun! I could tell it was fun for you to make the video 🙂this will be fun for your children to watch some day when they're older! Thanks for taking us along!...Melinda...

[@ejgillem1888]

Loved the tour of Lancaster Co. I live only minutes away in Chester Co. and love this area. Your story is so sweet and inspirational. God Bless.

[@courtneypiper4732]

One of my favorite videos so far!! Thank you for the amazing content during quarantine time! ❤️ Watched this while doing some cleaning this morning. 😊

[@ChildofGod318]

What a fun video! I love seeing the countryside there! I went to college near Wayne, PA and it brought so many memories back. I love all the little PA towns! Also I'm so glad you can share your dating story and be proud of it. It takes intentional thought to have good dating standards and stick to them. Thanks for sharing!

[@celebratecreatingwithkathr9353]

LOVED this video! Great videography and fun to get to know you're husband a little bit better! Very creative!

[@varlaw]

It was lovely to see the places particular to your story. Such a great use of the medium!

[@denisekorver2047]

Loved listening to your dating story, makes me reminisce ours! 😍 Love how God worked/is working in your life!

[@susanjedziniak6997]

Loved your Lancaster tour and your dating story, so fun. Oh how I miss our visit there. My husband and I got married at 18 and 19. We certainly were not ready for all the adult stuff that came our way. I think we finished growing up together a little bit through the years, and also waited on children until my husband was done w college which was about 10 years later. Ya'll have a safe and wonderful week, so thankful you are continuing your video's through this time, gives me something to look forward to.

[@PatMcFadyenGrowingGradeByGrade]

What a great video concept, Megan! The scenery was beautiful and the content was very interesting. I love the way you and Josh collab on answers.

[@Jennawashere9707]

What a fun video idea! Loved hearing your story and seeing some familiar roads, I live on a farm just outside of Strasburg and always feel so blessed to be surrounded by such beauty.

[@sallycroft2191]

Lovely to hear your engagement story and travel the memory roads with you and Josh. I visited Lancaster county a few years ago, brought back so many memories.

[@akontilis1792]

Aw, thank you so much for sharing your story. And your community is beautiful.🧡

[@joolzmac1]

I loved your story. LC is so beautiful, it’s now on my bucket list for when we visit the US again.

[@yvettewalshe9130]

It's great to hear your story! Josh seems to be getting out of his shell! It great to see you both laugh and smile together! Love it! God bless

[@tawnytuppence5573]

So sweet! Thank you for the tour! Your story took place in a beautiful area. You can always travel when you’re older.

[@carolwood3665]

You both are so together with you thoughts and life. Such a blessing to see you true love. Wishing you many years of happiness. Thanks so much for sharing.

[@christinewells2204]

Loved this video. I went to Lancaster twice last year and this was wonderful to see the beautiful scenery again. Thank you. Lots of love from Florida

[@jilllocklear4763]

This was so fun! It’s such a beautiful place and you two are so sweet! 💗

[@marybethhostetler]

So interesting Megan, I loved listening to your story and details!

[@jenniferdoud2846]

Great video!! Love hearing more of your story! Also love seeing the sites. We would be there now with my family celebrating Easter but we are not traveling due to everything. I got tears seeing the sites!! Happy Easter Fox family!

[@januarmama2012]

This was so beautiful 😊 Thank you so much for showing Lancaster County 💜 I really loved it and I was somehow hoping you would do that someday. Also a big thank you for sharing your story. Definitely thumps up here

[@cherylperryman9257]

Best video ever! Thank you for sharing. It’s so much fun seeing the sights in Lancaster. Would love to see more. Blessings to you both. 😊💕

[@MeganFoxUnlocked]

What a high compliment!

[@theresaspray7081]

Such a great video! I spent my childhood visiting Lancaster County and surrounding area to see my grandmom and my mom’s family . Such wonderful memories! Thank you for sharing your story and the tour of one of the prettiest areas in PA! 🤗

[@kaitlyncooper2743]

I loved this Megan! You live in such a beautiful place that I hope to visit someday! Love stories are special, and it made me reminisce of our own!

[@jackieaudus9829]

That was lovely... I live in England, so it’s wonderful to see your county.. thank you for sharing where you live and about your lives .. it’s a real Joy

[@cherylknepp8894]

Awesome advice....make your future self proud! You two are so adorable together!

[@ellantz]

Oh, Megan, I loved this video, seeing Lancaster County again, and hearing your dating story. My dad was born and raised on a farm outside of Strasburg. It was purchased from his elderly parents by an Amish family, and is located on what is now called Lantz Rd. My dad and mom started their family in Texas, where I was born and now reside, but I visited Strasburg last fall for the first time in about 50 years. It is a beautiful, culturally rich part of our country, and I am deeply grateful to revisit through your videos. Also, thank you for so openly sharing your values, without judgement of others. May God bless your family always. ❤️

[@danadahms362]

This was really interesting and I liked the format!! Not just another q&a, very creative! Thanks for sharing :)

[@amyt8475]

I agree this was great, especially for us overseas people 💜

[@maryqueenofScots2023]

Josh and Megan thank you so much for this video I can't begin to tell you how much I appreciate seeing my home, Lancaster County and hearing your story, thank you! x

[@lovinabaer1487]

That was fun! Thanks for taking us along! My husband and I were married 7 months and 16 days after we were engaged.😊 We didn't have a house to fix up because we moved into his parents' farmhouse, but they put up a new house in that time. We also lost my husband's older sister to cancer 3 months before our wedding. I think back now to all that my in laws were going through, and cannot fathom being as strong as they were.

[@lindaschneidewind8164]

Loved this video Megan. It was awesome going on the drive with u. It is beautiful there.

[@sarahfarrell8214]

Awww, Megan, I loved your love story! Pennsylvania is so pretty! Happiness and love always!

[@amykolstee5212]

Megan, I always enjoy your videos! We have been through Lancaster a few times, beautiful country! Thanks for sharing!

[@keeptrying5962]

I really appreciate your story. Love your Josh, such a good choice! XOXO

[@SylviaPenguin]

Beautiful landscape areas! And it was great learning from your time dating until you got engaged and then married! Every story is special in it's own way.

[@barbararosebrook3813]

Aww, I really loved this ❤️ your story and values. ❤️Love the beautiful Scenery.❤️ Many blessings to you & Josh and your family. Love from Ohio

[@pegginspep1239]

Just the pandemic distraction I needed. Thanks Megan. Loved this video so much 💕

[@rebecca.m6068]

It's been like 16 years since I was last in Pennsylvania....you guys driving around makes me really miss PA. I loved just driving around the countryside. I lived in PA off and on for 2 years. Originally from Colorado.... I absolutely love PA!!!

[@thespicyrose]

Megan, I really enjoyed this video. I loved listening to your story while seeing Lancaster County. I’m from NJ but live in California now. I used to drive up to Lancaster County with my friends for fun. You made me realize how much I miss the East Coast! God bless!

[@sarahsheartshome]

My answer would be very similar to yours in wishing maybe that I had done some missions trips before I married at 21 and started having babies! Its not that you can't do those things after marriage, its just harder! What a fun video!! Loved the scenery, the reminiscing and the story!! Great idea, Megan!

[@ajahnicole]

I am from Lancaster as well, love that you are showing our beautiful county on KZbin 😀

[@marilynweist2645]

Loved this video! ❤️❤️❤️

[@tanyamoore5009]

What a fun video!! Beautiful country views!! Y’all are such good examples of good and pure relationship goals! And y’all are just precious people inside and out! ❤️

[@sunnyflyer7708]

I loved seeing the sights of PA and hearing your story!

[@kelsbells1006]

So happy for this video!!!! Love your love story

[@cindysteffens8065]

Super cute story. You're such a sweet couple. My husband and I knew each other 3 months when we got engaged, and were married 6 months later. We'll be married 50 years in July.

[@joycebrown9430]

Glad you caught that! You have a lovely marriage. Good video.

[@shesacamper1497]

I really enjoyed this video. Thank you Megan and Josh for sharing your dating story with us. May God Bless.

[@LivingForJesusMennoniteMom]

So interesting to hear your dating story and ideals. We saved our first kiss for our wedding day. We did a hands off for the most part. Such a blessing to look back with no regrets! God bless.

[@jhernandez891]

This video was SUPER enjoyable!

[@danabrum]

So sweet! I rarely comment, but watch every video. You all are a breath of fresh air!

[@MeganFoxUnlocked]

Awww I really appreciate that!🧡

[@janwittman595]

What a cool video! It was really fun to see the country side while hearing your story.

[@karenc3788]

Thanks for the road trip, we miss just jumping in the car and going to Lancaster for the day...can't wait till this crazyness is over so we can plan a trip to our favorite place. You are a very special and lovely couple.

[@cdtracks9440]

Loved this video...Videos with Josh are nice...Love your shopping and cooking videos too.

[@ruthorlitta5606]

Y'all are too sweet, love this!❤

[@elizabethwilliams1523]

Thoroughly enjoyed this video. Thanks

[@jennmable]

Wow! What a beautiful part of the country. Thanks for the gorgeous tour!

[@ashleywagner8082]

Your channel came up as a suggestion for me with this video and I live 5 minutes from the church on the hill! How crazy! Glad to have found your channel 💕

[@joannelucille]

This was so much fun! 😊 When God writes your love story, it's bound to be great! Thank you for sharing!

[@GOTTshua]

Amen. Jesus' timing is perfect. He is faithful and true.

[@mlm7598]

I loved this vlog and the discussion. Very sweet and enduring. I admire you both for setting example and doing things your way and not feel being pressured by any outside influences. Very wonderful time you had courting and dating. You seem very happy and that is what it is all about.......holding your spouse up and they in return hold you up in the same respect and honor. I think communication between you is awesome. So many ppl don't communicate and take things for granted that their partner/spouse may want and that can cause so much friction. Be open, honest and communicate from the get go and from your heart. Megan I just loved this vlog that you and Josh have shared. Sweet, innocent and just raw truth and honest......so cute watching you sort of still blushing. Just very sweet! Blessings

[@SarahsOctoberHome]

Fun Video, Megan ❤️👏🏻❤️

[@NeemahJ]

Aww such a simple yet disciplined couple... I love that.

[@rebekanemcova7068]

Megan, I loved this video!!! It was probably one of my favourites😊I had two questions; for one, do Mennonites have specific music standards(as far as syncopation or style?) and what advice would you give to a girl who is in a relationship? (Just one thing that you find really important.)Thanks! Have a great Easter weekend!

[@melindajohnson9726]

aw, thanks for sharing! we had a somewhat hands off relationship/engagement and started dating when I was 17 and he was 19. We got married when I had just turned 20 and he was 22, and he had graduated college, so very, very young and then had our firstborn less than a year later. But we don't regret that. It's been almost 19 years now (wow, what?!) anyway, I'm glad you shared your story and how a morally responsible dating relationship can turn out to be a beautiful thing and a marriage that lasts. more young people need to see that! Thanks!

[@whitneypea]

This was so much fun to watch!

[@LifeWithFlowers]

God Bless you and your family. Thanks for sharing 🙏🏽🌿💗 I hope you have a Blessed Easter.

[@taramorrison5845]

I love your story! You guys are so cute. Good for you for setting high standards for yourselves!

[@marymaco]

I loved hearing your dating story and really enjoy your videos. I met my husband sophmore year in high school. We have been married 44 years. We have 3 sons and 4 grandchildren. I live in neighboring Chester County. Loved being along on your tour of beautiful Lancaster County. I noticed you drove past one of my favorite shops, The Old Country Store in intercourse. Cannot wait to go and stock up on fabric. Be safe and enjoy your beautiful family.

[@carolschapansky1747]

Interesting!! I love hearing love stories.

[@paulam9838]

What a sweet video. Love the two of you going down memory lane. Thank you for sharing. Your children will enjoy this video one day too.

[@MeganFoxUnlocked]

I never thought of that!

[@Gabbiegirlpup]

Absolutely so precious! Thank you for sharing your story. You are a wonderful couple; so mature and wise at such a young age. I have regrets, and when you said you hate having regrets - I must say it was a bittersweet moment watching your lovely countryside in the video and starting to cry remembering how stupid I was, and yet rejoicing that you listened to the Lord and your heart and now you have the testimony you can be thankful for. Keep up the good work! Megan, you are a disciple and I thank God for you. 💗

[@marysparr7075]

Love this video! I’m from PA close to Lancaster, living in NC now and enjoy hearing about your lifestyle.

[@valerierennell9680]

Great video. Thanks for sharing your dating story. I loved the tour of Lancaster county. I had a trip to Strasburg planned for next weekend. :( Can’t wait until we can reschedule.

[@MeganFoxUnlocked]

Awww. Yes, reschedule it!

[@resellereverafter4235]

Your dating story is so cute!

[@elainehorning7720]

Love this. I also grew up Mennonite in Lancaster Co, in Farmersville and and Ephrata area. My mother was a resident at Fairmount. Lived in Maine now for 27 years, was good to "travel" the roads of Lanc Co. again. Love enthusiasm and good, clean content you bring to KZbin. Blessings

[@cindykaye3152]

Sonic started in my hometown- Shawnee, Oklahoma! I remember when their food was way better. LoL Still love their drinks though, especially cherry limeades & vanilla Dr. Pepper! Loved hearing about your dating story & seeing the beautiful scenery of Lancaster county! Peace & joy to you this Easter!

[@kittyfarkas]

Fun video and love 💘 the story and travel through Lancaster Pa.Laughed at your Nov 31 engagement but you caught 😜 it before end of story.

[@rosalie2762]

My husband and I married at 19 to!! Still going strong 🥰. Didn’t know this about the two of you 😄. Need to watch more videos on your channel 👍🏼.

[@joannleboeuf1739]

I just LOVE Lancaster and have been there at least 6 times. Coming from southern Louisiana I don’t see those beautiful rolling hills and beautiful pastures. I so enjoyed this road trip through the county and your sweet story of courtship. This was one of my most favorite videos. And after all this distancing is over one of our first places to visit is Lancaster. See you there. LOVE

[@MeganFoxUnlocked]

Yes come visit!

[@sherreepeterson3496]

Aww you two are an adorable couple, what a fun dating story. I loved see your beautiful part of the world.

[@ktroyerrocks517]

Thanx for sharing your story! I loved hearing it! We actually went to Olive Garden the night we got engaged too!! 😊

[@libbygibson5612]

This is awesome. I lived outside of Lancaster for a year and I miss the beautiful area! Thanks.
