Our RV Tinyhouse Renovation Begins... again.

[@FleshEatingBeagle]

Your journey has been amazing to follow over the years. ❤

[@arsenemercere8059]

I remember clicking on that for the first time. I was worried you'd be the grumpy guy who complained about everything, but you showed enough of a sense of humor and good nature that I kept watching. And then I clicked on the next video in the series, and then the next, and... Well, I've been watching ever since. I love watching such good-natured people like yourselves. I'm sure I miss the cursing when things go wrong, but on-screen you have a delightful "Well, this isn't working, but now let's fix it" attitude. I never feel like you smile for the camera, but you smile because you want to. It's always nice to have someone genuine to watch.

[@LiveSimpleLiveFree]

The last time Elizabeth or I uttered a curse word was probably about 30 years ago! It's just not part of our vocabulary, or thinking. If I smash my thumb, I don't even THINK a curse word! The most I would THINK when I smash my thumb is AAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

[@arsenemercere8059]

I wish more people had your attitude! I really, really do. I wish you could see the grin on my face right now.

[@jeanblythe1595]

What I love is that you could have been so bitter about everything, but instead you are so grateful, seeing possibilities where others might have grumbled about Life in general. Your attitude is so beautiful! What an amazing job you did to create your little house! May God keep blessing you both (and Leo).

[@JeremyCDunn]

Thanks for reposting! I loved watching this and seeing how far y’all have come. It’s reminded me of a common misconception so many people have; the true definition of the American dream. It’s not all about having millions, nice cars and a big house. Living DEBT FREE, being content with your life and having a great person to spend it with is the true American dream. From what I’ve seen, y’all are living it. Keep up the good work with the videos, we sure enjoy them!

[@loisxander6321]

Bill you are so fortunate to have the knowledge and ability to make all these improvements. Elizabeth you and bill make a great example of how to support each other with Gods help and lots of love.

[@TrinityRidge1959]

That's awesome you two. Me and my hubby lost our home to foreclose and ended up in chapter 13 for 6 years. In that time p&is and saved 29900.00 bucks and found after searching a few years, found this home. We had to replace the floors and all the pipining.we did o. Our own. Very proud of what we did ad well. You should be proud. We owe nothing. We paid cash for this hunt cabin in the back woods. We got 18 acres and a big fixer upper but we grow our own food and can it for the first time. It was and is a true adventure. Your both are awesome. Adapt like a true soldier. Fantastic to watch this. Cash is king..Thank you for sharing..4 years at our place now.

[@LiveSimpleLiveFree]

Sounds like a great place you’ve got there!

[@TrinityRidge1959]

Tinyhouse Prepper thank you. We had a hobby farm big house big farm and I'm very happy in a needs work modular. When it's all yours right. Great feeling. You guys rock..

[@maryanne9993]

LOADS OF POSSIBILITIES, beautiful, nice piece of land, and tarmack this is a dream waiting to emerge

[@JanesDough855]

You two are some of the Most Incredible people I have ever witnessed! With all that you've been thru, all the trials and tribulations, you're together, you're happy and most of all, you never gave up! What an inspiration to others! I see your lives just getting better and better. God Bless!

We love you! God sent! Blessings. Puerto Rico USA

[@RichieRouge206]

Glad you reposted this! You are nothing short of an inspiration! You’ve turned disaster into a really positive experience and your life is definitely better. Bless you both

[@BabsLongfellow]

Wow, amazing to see the "prequel" of your tiny abode. It's unrecognizable! Not sure anyone but a builder could have saved this little place! Congrats to you both for your vision and handwork. Loved seeing this.

[@gracel3320]

I’m just watching this and I see you have 91k views, awesome! You are helping so many people! God bless, you both have a true ministry!💕

[@RosieTheRiveter07]

Thought of ya a few days ago, I said a prayer that God continue to bless you brother n sister. I prayed for Elizabeth, God give her strength . We love you both very much. You have done an amazing job with your tiny home. I miss seeing your pretty kitty too.

[@manny4445]

Your famous! LOL I love your video's, you two are wonderful! It is so good to be able to watch something that is as wholesome as your channel! Your Christian walk is a help to me also.

[@LovingAtlanta]

👍Thank goodness that you’re pretty handy and could do the work yourself. 💞

[@soblessed4766]

You see this video and then the way it looks now and what an amazing job you did!! 😊. It's a little doll house now!! 💜 Thank God for your skills and both of your talents!! 🙏 God Bless You Both!! Luv you all too!! 💙💗 Deb from Kentucky!! 😊

[@ParadigmBlaster]

GOD already IS watching over you two(!)...AMEN(!)...

[@TheMendipman]

Having discovered your channel just a day or two ago, I was trying without success to find your first upload. Now this one explains why. I've watched several of the milestone episodes so far and plan to bring myself up to date with the rest. A great story. God Bless, Noel - Somerset, England.

[@valeriewolfset214]

I don't recall seeing your first video. Thanks for reposting it for us all to enjoy your start and progress. You two are very charming and sweet. Two thumbs up. Keep them coming please.

[@rosilynvyhnalek7783]

I've enjoyed going back to watch your progress and how you've turned this tiny house into a true home. I've been watching for only a couple months .

[@carolyngossett3241]

You two are worker bees and were so smart to see what this rundown travel trailer could be. God bless you. Enjoy!

[@luannbriggs1917]

I just love your tinyhouse! ... you and Elizabeth are wonderful and such a God send! ... love your channel and have learned and gotten so much enjoyment watching! ... God Bless you both...

[@cindy2252]

I cannot believe this "is", what is now, your beautiful tiny home! Can't wait to watch the transformation!

[@jjdrummonds]

This was the first one I saw.First channel I subscribed to.Amazing everything you have been through and all that you have achieved. 💜

[@cyndyt9470]

You are both adorable people! Thank you for sharing your lives with us.

[@thinkingofothers353]

~~~~My wonderful friends Bill and Elizabeth , I am viewing this video from the past.. It is a real joy to see how you both made your lovely home. I can see the love in your home. We thank our LORD that we have you both as friends.....GOD''S JOY .~~~

[@pebo5371]

Hello Bill & Elizabeth, I was/ am watching the video where you guys are de-cluttering your desk and upper cabinets (above living room windows), I was thinking about what my son & I came up in my granddaughter's room w/all her cords and chargers and etc.anyhow I bought really great gorilla glue, strips of velcro ,from fabric shop- and surge protecters and glued the velcro strips to the side of the headboard, under the bed on the inside of the legs of the bed, in other words hide-away and yet handy, then glued the other part of the velcro strip to the surge extension cords,w/more than 3 plug ins, then the extra cordage tie together w/plastic ties ( like the kind the police sometimes use,hee-hee), to hide them and keep the cords nice & neat, with your desk, you can glue the velcro and cords to the side of the desk, back, underneath, underneath the top of the desk top but on the underside, anyhow see what I mean? You would have more room, if you took the doors off the cabinets and replaced with lift type doors, as for Elizabeth's stuff, hang a type of shoe sack with slots or make one and hang it on the wall right by your left side where the mirror is. Anyway just throwing some ideas at you both, and next time you come to Salt Lake City,Utah, let me know, I live about 15 minutes north of the Airport. You're welcome at my home, I love you both, you're very loving ,respectful, humble and courageous, Bless you two. Love you two, your friend Rosie. Email me and I'll give you my cell # and address.

[@MouseToes]

Thank you both for sharing this amazing transformation with us here on YT. And Elizabeth do not worry about the Umm's!

[@boondockingbecca]

Amazing work you have done. You have come so far. A true little doll house!

[@joelhill4107]

You have come a long way!! Thanks for sharing your journey!! You two are a match made in heaven!!

[@marionweigel3542]

Very nice and cozy.

[@fancysfolly554]

I’m glad you showed this again...I hadn’t seen it...shows how much you all have done!

[@lynnen264]

I love your tiny house, then and now

[@Marimarr59]

Glad your back!!

[@ellenfisher6341]

WOW, what a transformation. You must be a huge inspiration to so many who are @ that crossroad of down sizing , whether out of desire or need & aren't sure if they can tackle a job like that ! Many people would have NOT taken that on, but you did an amazing job !!!

[@LiveSimpleLiveFree]

For me it was no big deal because I have been a contractor for decades.

[@coffeefetcher]

Aw, I thought we were going to see you dismantle the summer house thingy and put up a substantial and warm replacement! But I did enjoy the video (again) all the same, thank you.

[@rustykatt3870]

Hugs!!!! We admire both of you wonderful people's courage!! :)

[@anitaronquillo1410]

We watch because you are So awesome!

[@eratoisyourmuse659]

Your vids alwaya make me squeal. So excited when the notification comes on. Not only do your vids fascinate and teach me so much, but no matter if I having a bad or discouraging day, Elizabeths voice, warmth and positive demeanor just melts all the negativity from my spirit. Much love from you Northern (Manitoba to be exact) neighboura.

[@isabelledauch5780]

The two of you are so sweet. I love watching your videos. God bless you both!

[@DanaPatriciaMary1]

I remember that video. And now we can see how much work and how many changes have been done. Good job! I really like your tiny house. It seems incredibly cozy and comfortable. And I love your videos too, because there is some kind of peace and calmeness radiating from them. Greetings from Central Europe. God bless you both.

[@joanmilano5302]

You can tell how far you've come when you look back at where you've been!

[@LovingAtlanta]

👍Loved watching this again. Thanks for sharing your journey. Wishing you both the best. 🤗💞🤗

[@samanthataylor3372]

You two 💜 the love you have for each other, your grateful spirit I just love. And Elizabeth's radiant smile I just would love to hug her. God bless you both!

[@sandrawomack6122]

wow...I have enjoyed your video's from the beginning, and did not even know it.....I never really comment....I just enjoy you both....

[@LiveSimpleLiveFree]

Well... we're glad to have you along as a "silent partner!"

[@karenbrandenberger517]

If you didn't know how to do that stuff to the trailer, it would be so difficult for someone else. Smart man.

[@keithc9257]

Absolutely love your zeal for what has been given to you. and making the most with what you have. Subbed

[@angelanicholson951]

You two have infectious enthusiasm, which I really appreciate. Bless you both!

[@suzi7715]

Thanks soo much for reposting this video, I looked for it a few months ago and wondered where it went.

[@lori5142]

I remember watching this..been watching for quite awhile. I forgot some of how bad it was. Amazing skill and it is so great and homey now. Absolutely love you both & your videos.

[@GoofieNewfie69]

The thing most don't realize with old campers is that they say if not properly supported. The supporting tabs for the floor under the walls tend to rust and sag from snow loads. Especially if the bottom is skirted, it's always damp under the trailer. As for roofs, yes some of those sealers work but it's only a temporary fix. With the trailers I've done for people, I remove everything sticking up through the roof (all venting is done out through the side, much easier to seal) then fiberglass/gelcoat the entire roof. Plus, fiberglass is much easier to repair if it gets damaged. On RV's, I only use marine products(if it's good enough for boats in the North Atlantic, it's excellent for trailers) . Yes it's a bit more expensive, but you only need to do the job once, which saves money in the long run. I did my buddies fifth wheeler 20 years ago and he's never had a problem. As for RV and home sealers, if they were as good as they claim, they would be used in the marine industry.

[@arlenekorth2253]

Really enjoy watching you two kids!

[@wandadoty]

Thank you both for for sharingLOVE, and GOD bless!

[@marissaalonzo7997]

You know what I appreciate...along with pointing out what you need to do, you also say how you are fortunate. Like with the bathroom. I love this point of view. Deal with the reality but also making the best of the situation. Been there too....

[@rbsamar]

Omg very nice love all ur hard work.

[@bluesingincat]

I love watching you guys. It always makes me feel good for some reason. God bless. 🙏❤️✝️

[@pammiedoodle8693]

I remember watching that video way back when. It was fun to see it again! I don’t remember how I found you guys originally, but I’m sure glad I did. You are both so much fun and very informative!😊 God Bless🙏

[@TeresaAlley]

Wow you’ve come a long way! So glad you shared this, it gives me hope for my RV! Love you guys and God bless you two!

[@gregscrap]

Great video guys I have tiny one like that good ideas

[@leahveal9501]

Hi Elizabeth and Bill, y'all are awesome! You did a wonderful renovation. God bless you and have a great week.😃❤

[@jamiewooten2736]

i am so glad you did you guys are a blessing to me and many others

[@monopolylife]

Sorry to hear, but I’ve viewed this new one. Still great. You are proof that God is good! Bless you both.🙏🏼

[@dianedeck3128]

Love it , really lets you see the before and after , it amazes me how you live in such a small space. I'm not knocking . I want a small house just not that small, but I love your videos, and I think you two are the sweetest people on KZbin. I have been watching you guys for awhile now and only just recently ordered my first Thrive order. I am a single woman in my late forties, and I like the idea of living small, and prepping for hard times, especially since I gotta fend for myself, no one to help me, so I better think ahead, you never know.Anyway Love you guys. Hugs tight.

[@michaelnoakes8566]

Thank you for sharing this again. I have been watching your channel for awhile now, I pray for you both. Haved a blessed day.

[@daveanddeb5629]

That is so cool! I do remember watching this first video. So nice to be able to go back and see how far you've come.

[@GinaSiska]

Ok, I’ve been watching a lot, now I’m going to start at beginning and binge watch! Oh Bill, you could put big flower pots around the outside of the house for herbs and flowers for Elizabeth 💐🌷🌹🌿🌱❤️😁

[@lindyworthington1651]

I remember watching that first video so long ago...I think I was one of your first 500 subscribers! I was researching tiny houses and found you guys...You have come a long way! I love the Tea with Jesus episodes.

[@LiveSimpleLiveFree]

[@ruthmaxwell60]

Thanks for sharing this beautiful video with your friends,.....all 32K+ of us 😁👍🐢

[@pebo5371]

HI you 2, I've been watching some of your videos, I started with the little heater you installed and it was freezing outside, anyhow it led to the 2017 Christmas video, Thank you so very much to both if you, the love you have for each other, your happiness & smiles, your videos that are very instructional and interesting, and etching me about Thrive products, and most of all, teaching me about debt free living, anyhow in your 2017 Christmas video you both start to sing and I started crying, I had been praying about something for days and Heavenly Father's answer came during your singing, Bless you both and keep up the videos, make sure you mention all the businesses an f companies you buy everything from so we can purchase products or items from them and also we can pass on the info to them that we obtained their business/companies' products or knowledge of them from your KZbin site ,thus giving you and the companys Thumbs Up and acknowledgement. Keep up your cooking videos and Thrive recipes and info. Love you both Rosie from Utah. Blessings to you and my prayers to you both.

[@kristinaclark3357]

I am always so encouraged by you guys!!!

[@dawnbaker9274]

What a transformation! So fortunate you had the skills.👏👏👏

[@roxanaconception]

That was awesome....😊 Ms. Elizabeth, so cute : “I was a little ummy” Just love your personality and your positive attitude. It’s contagious. May God continue to bless you both!💕

[@Lee-rx8mi]

I love this chance to see it all from the beginning... such good warm feelings to think of all the hard work and time you both put into it. Wonderful!

[@mararoy5274]

Love your channel! You are both so sweet!

[@J.Cameron.Stuart.Adams.]

Awe... Isn't that sweet. The previous owner custom fitted his door going to the sunroom so all the rodents could come in and share bed and home on chilly or hot nights. Ewhhh! Excellent work Bill. Elizabeth is so blessed to have such a loving, dedicated, and hard working husband. You're also blessed to have a wife who appreciates everything you've done to ensure you both have a comfortable home. It would have been easy for her to give up after her stroke. But she pushed herself, with your help too, to make the most of all the rehabilitation so she could regain control and continue to do her part in your union. A marriage is a partnership. If one spouse checks out emotionally or chooses to not contribute, the partnership falls apart. Just as with business partners. Each must carry their own weight and contribute to success. Bravo you two bravo. It would have been so easy to go your separate ways after losing everything. But your love prevailed and grew stronger as your comfortable lives crumbled around you. Congratulations, you've passed the most severs tests any couple can face. Many would argue losing a child is harder on a marriage. And for them it is. I won't deny anyone that. Cheers from Seattle!

[@J.Cameron.Stuart.Adams.]

If you haven't replace all windows yet, pull these and add a new layer of butyl tape. Add around all exterior doors a d windows. This is a second layer of protection if the caulking fails after really hot or cold days/nights from expansion and contraction of the siding or window frames. Always add caulking to screw holes and the screw themselves. This ensures water does not travel down the threads and into the wood or wall cavities leading to rot. Replace all rusted screws. These will continue to deteriorate cause more issues. I have a restored vintage trailer with modern amenities insidea for travel. Roughly 90% of all the exterior screws were rusted when I started the project. Those screws caused a lot of damage. All were replaced with stainless steel. Cheers!

[@thepricelife2374]

Great update! We have almost been watching you from the beginning! Love to see how far you have come. Your channel is one of the ones that inspired us to start our own. Thank you so much for all your hard work! You are an inspiration! Jesus bless you!
