Crystal, you're a great mom! A moms job is never done and i can tell you truly love your family. You are making great memories with them and giving them a great childhood. I envy your kids for what I never had growing up. ❤

[@marshacollins6235]

I would love to see patriotic decor in your new home. I enjoyed watching you decorate for the seasons in your old home. Enjoy the Summer with your family!

[@lisawfriday]

I agree. I love seeing the blue and white chinoiserie vases, dishes etc for summer and adding American flags to them, so so pretty. It’s my favorite Summer decor ever. ❤️🤍💙

[@Rebelhomeland]

That yard! So beautiful!

[@lisawfriday]

I also love the Siete brand and the La Tortilla Factory brand. I’m an ingredients label reader and pay close attention to added chemicals in our foods and I love the challenge of finding real clean brands in the stores. I agree with everyone, your coffee bar area is absolutely my favorite part of your kitchen, love the way you style it. Your new nail color is my go to, love it.

[@kimacker8594]

Your girls trip with Macy sounds fun.

[@pansyross8862]

They're only little for a little while so enjoy your summer with your kiddos.

[@pamelamaurer2076]

I really like your new nail color. Also I love CHOMPS. I like the turkey one.

[@heart_towards_home]

Your newly organized refrigerator was inspiring! Maybe I'm just old but it's funny how little things like that are exciting. Lol. I was actually admiring your dining table. I love it! ❤

[@AmandaRam]

Looking forward to weekly vlogs..hope they work out well for you!!

[@suecorrigan1216]

I think however your summer uploads go will be great!! Do what works for you and your family!! Give yourself grace!!

[@MSCD51]

Happy Summer break! I always looked forward to Summers with my kiddos home. It is a special time. Enjoy it and cherish each day. I was a SAHM too. Loved we could do it too. Now I will have my grandkids this Summer. Lol at 72 going to be a challenge keeping up with our twins!!! But good challenge. Nice seeing the kids. Whatever video schedule you do will be great. Happy Memorial Day!

[@megroux]

Love the coffee bar so pretty.

[@tatih4984]

I’d love to see a video of what I eat in a day! We store our applesauce pouches in the fridge.

[@anitaelliott5194]

Crystal, you are so refreshing. You just don't know how much I enjoy your videos. I feel like I have known you forever. Thanks for sharing your family. You have a beautiful home. Enjoy the summer with your children.

[@marjiemadlena5871]

My hubby and I love the Power Crunch bars and I love a good fridge organization!

[@kimberly4120]

Crystal even as children grow you will find each stage all the way through even into adulthood is filled with the magic you now give them. You will always be that mom thinking of what to surprise them with, how to make the moments in their lives special. I know as I am 71 and I believe a house that is a home never stops when you keep that magic alive.

[@phyllisanngodfrey6137]

I like the “week in the life” idea and will certainly follow you this Summer 👍🏻❤️

[@SharonHayduk]

Enjoy your time with your children. Time goes to fast. Look forward to anything you post.

[@dianejohnson7235]

Happy Memorial weekend!!!!! Love your upstairs library!!!!!

[@jenniferbuzzard2992]

I can’t believe summer break is here we are ready for it ! I like the idea of your new summer video schedule can’t wait for that and I liked this longer video ! I’m excited to see patriotic decor in your new home !

[@IamSnowbird]

Every year I am so surprised at how early your kids get out for the summer.

[@mello3214]

Tara you are very blessed honey, and I’m so happy you realize it! Our children will not always be there when they grow up so enjoy it now! Love you Tara so sweet and precious! I’m loving your channel take care and God bless and enjoy your trip sweetheart!!!!!! 🙏😍 your a wonderful person and mom 💪🤗👍

[@stephaniealbers1518]

I have turned my fridge drawer into a beverage drawer. I have seen other videos where people do store their applesauce pouches in clear containers in the fridge 😊

[@stacieguzman871]

Enjoy your summer with your family! Thank you for bringing us along when you can!

[@sharonalbright1334]

Hi Crystal, the cinnamon rolls made my mouth water! Your nails look great! I may do a similar color for vacation. Love the library! Aww! The kids were emotional to be leaving each other. That’s sweet. Looking forward to future videos!

[@dotmaines3684]

All your projects are looking great! Enjoy your summer with your kids

[@inagoff7887]

Really enjoy seeing the kids again. They are growing up so fast.

[@susansolomon2770]

Enjoy your kiddos during summer break! I’ll be happy to see you when I see you😍

[@joannbaroud542]

Crystal, you’re such a great person I’m sure an awesome mom. I feel like we are friends, love your style and just your sweet attitude

[@KittyLove-ts9we]

The library nook looks interesting. Looks like it should be something for your mud room. Your saying someone is going to sit on that tiny hard bench and read a book? I think some cute wall shelves and a big bean bag chair in the corner would have worked and looked better for a kids reading nook.

[@donnajohansson4105]

3 schools to deal with. Your going to be busy on the school run in the new school year! Enjoy your holidays. We are in Autumn in Australia,heading for winter ❤

[@rhondahigginbotham968]

Have a great summer vacation!!

[@sherrypatterson3518]

What a nice surprise this evening!! I hope your kiddos have a wonderful summer break 💙

[@JalynnPatterson]

Can’t wait to see the week in a life vids! Love it!!!!

[@dawnhoffman8526]

Looking forward to week vlogs!!!

[@marybollinger8668]

Your home is beautiful and every project or addition just makes it even better and more special. What a great mom to always try to make days special for your children. How lucky they are to have you! Enjoy the summer and I look forward to your videos any time you have them online! They always make my day!!!

[@suescheuch2164]

Ohhh…great….you’ve come to keep me company while having dinner! What a nice surprise 😊

[@christygardner3829]

The power crunch bars are a total 10/10 😍 so happy I found them!! Great when you need a sweet treat. The mint flavor tastes just like girl scout thin mint cookies

[@zenaidalugo7707]

Just know you’re doing great as a mom and wife I can see how much you love your family and your home, when you said “you only have so many summers with your kids” I got choked up, my kids are grown and married living in different states and I miss those summer days so much, I too was a stay at home mom and I loved spending time with my kids 😢 enjoy them while they’re near ❤

[@brookeclayton7056]

Crystal, I love your channel and all you do here. I have been so impressed with the editing of your videos lately! They look so good and cohesive. The flow is great and they are very enjoyable to watch! Have fun this summer! ☀️

[@maryannkilduff8659]

I love Americana decor! I'm excited to add some for 4th of July!❤🇺🇸

[@patsycash8648]

Happy Memorial Day!! Have a great summer!!

[@camilleatdecorate8468]

Hello beautiful family thank you for your videos love following you have a blessed weekend ❤

[@nancybarta8167]

That view of the water is so inspiring.....love it!

[@AcC7314]

I think "Week in the Life" summer videos is a great idea. I love that you are wanting to soak in the time with your kids. You are right, it passes by all too quickly. Enjoy every moment ❤

[@sharronb2476]

What a nice surprise, seeing a new video of yours, Crystal! I just noticed after I got into bed, and thought I can't go to sleep yet! I've got to watch Crystal's new video! 😂❤ How exciting about all of the projects happening in your beautiful home! And all of your sweet kiddos being out for the summer! 😊 I was always at my happiest when my 2 kids were on summer break, I sure miss those days! Crystal, you are such a fun Mom! I hope you all have a great weekend away and fabulous summer, and we will just enjoy your videos when you can put them out! ❤ Your library is going to be so nice! The cabinet will be so useful and the bench seat was a great idea! 😁💕🌷🩷 Your nails looks so pretty!

[@michellewissler3013]

Crystal you are the sweetest! Such a thoughtful and wonderful Mom! I hope you and your family have the best summer! So happy for you with all your projects, gym and pario furniture! So very exciting! Your coffee bar looks amazing and your front porch looks beautiful with the flowers and accent touches! Love your style! I hope you have a fabulous weekend away with your family. Safe travels and Happy Memorial weekend 💖🤗💕

[@MunchKim0929]

Week in the life sounds great! Enjoy your summer with the kiddos

[@kimacker8594]

I keep fruit pouches in the pantry. It just depends if the kids prefer them cold or room temp.

[@dianefuchs5700]

Enjoy you summer with your kiddos.

[@reneekarakatsanis989]

Happy Summer! Enjoy your kiddos❤❤❤

[@shannonjohnson2105]

Yes . Interesting videos for a week long . Love it when you add in cooking because that’s what I most likely fix for our dinner !

[@sondrasix1668]

Awesome video. I’m excited to see the new projects done. Have an awesome weekend 🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵 The fridge looks so nice

[@dawngamez9761]

Love, love all the new projects!! Can not wait to see it all come together!!💕 Have a great weekend making memories!

[@mariawilliams1314]

I was excited to see you posted a new video. I remember those days many years ago when I would get excited about going shopping by myself. I also remember looking forward to summer for slower times and fun times. Love the new library area and that you put a bench there too. I am looking forward to your back deck reveal and also your fitness room. I hope y’all have a safe and fun Memorial Day trip. 😊❤😊🌼🌸🇺🇸

[@memphis2375]

Love your decorate with me videos but frankly any video works for me! The library is going to be so pretty!! 😊

[@jessicamcintosh9008]

Any Crystal videos are good videos!!!

[@jeanneewaseck6635]

Hi, Crystal! I especially like that home library wall! As a kid, that would be a daily stop for me - especially as there was also a bench, so I could sit and decide which book I wanted. And while I'm not usually one for dark colors in the home, the stain on that unit is just right, with the immediate walls and the other furnishings in your house.

[@4evermydoodles]

Great video Crystal!! Happy Summer 🌸

[@fletchfflctch]

Enjoy the coffee with your view. Apples, I keep them on the counter but put a few in the fridge, I like them cold. We add them to the fridge, same with oranges. Enjoy the summer with your kiddos, mine are 22 and 17.

[@michelebaldwin1942]

Your videos are always the ones I reward myself with!

[@margieneary272]

It’s the little things that make us happy. I bought 2 new floor register covers the other day at Home Depot. They are a pretty cocoa color, and they blend in with my carpet and walls. The old ones were brass, and beat up. I was so darn excited. They were $12.00 each. I heard recently, from a decorator, that you should blend them with your floors. “ The little things.” Have a great summer with your family . Looking forward to your upcoming videos, sweet Crystal❤

[@YouCanCallmeNet]

I think I would be on that patio every moment I possibly could ! Such a beautiful view ! 😀

[@joyb2456]

I so enjoy your videos Crystal, you are like a breath of fresh air! You are such an inspiration to me to get organized. Thank you for sharing your life with us, you are loved! Blessings!🦋

[@kellieroth1710]

Would love to see your trips!❤❤❤ love you!❤

[@SimplyEnjoyingLife]

I enjoyed the video and whatever you decide to do over the summer will be great!💜

[@jinxie228]

Ooh my goodness, busy busy busy!!! Ooh patriotic decor, LOVE that!

[@relliot1000]

You’re exactly right. Time with our kids is so fleeting. 2nd graders are the best!!! Happy Summer!

[@bettyloar2238]

I always enjoyed when my kids got out of school so I could spend more time with them, enjoy your summer

[@cc3kidsl8ter78]

This is such a nice surprise watching a video from Crystal in the evening! I agree time definitely flies. My son just graduated 8th grade. My youngest daughter's last day of 3rd grade is the end of this month. And then my oldest daughter is moving out of state for the first time in July.

[@stephanieniemoeller6994]

Please feel free to make your summer videos longer since theres one per week & you’re covering a whole week! We need our Crystal fix!!! 😂😂

[@bonniemossman2156]

I am like you I would rather organize my frig than socialize and I feel it is OK.

[@jeanettescavuzzo3852]

Happy summer brake enjoy😘

[@rhondarude9460]

My husband and son are heading to Madden’s May 31 through June 3 for a boys golfing adventure!! They really like golfing there. Have a great time and enjoy your summer!!

[@johannabennetts64]

That Siete brand is the BEST. And such clean ingredients! That popcorn is my fave, too! Happy summer break! Hope you guys get some warmer temps soon.

[@fondapassmore5256]

Crystal this was a great video! The longer ones are my favorite. Your frig is gorgeous, so beautifully organized. Thanks for the awesome content!!

[@AcC7314]

I'd love to know what you think of all the new snack options u purchased. Can u give us a follow-up in next video? The simple mills Himalayan chips, I used to buy until I tried their seed crackers & now I like them even better. So if u dont like pita ones, maybe try those :) i like Siete too! Did u know Siete also makes sandwich wraps? I found i like almond ones better than coconut because they hold together better, just fyi 😉 Also, i recently discovered archer farms makes a really good protein snack in turkey & beef flavors if u decide chomps isn't for you. I enjoyed this as always ...I think we're on the same snack food journey 😉 Thanks always for sharing your grocery hauls with us, Crystal. So fun!

[@junehudgens]

Oooooooohhhhhh Wow! Those gym doors are gorgeous. They will make the adjoining room so light and airy. I love your videos! You are looking gorgeous, which is such a motivator for me right now. I’ve never been an exerciser, but I know that I will feel so much better if I do. I’m decorating for the summer with patriotic red, white, and blue as I watch and listen to your newest video. Love your ideas for the summer! Thanks, sweet KZbin friend! PS: Your children are growing up soooooo fast! 2nd graders, 5th grader, and a middle schooler - how did that happen? HA!

[@GaryWilkinson-y1l]

I love patriotic decor. Teaching your children about or freedoms is important.

[@sheilavanduynfote5539]

Crystal any content you give us will be great!!!!!!! Love the windows in your gym

[@LaQuidaHightower]

I love all your videos of you decorating your house. It’s all beautiful.

[@pam7825]

You only get 18 summers with your kiddos & those go so fast! Enjoy every minute with your kiddos!!

[@BeingTink]

Yessssss! I love week in the life videos!!! Have a great summer Crystal and enjoy those kids while you can.

[@michelleleonard5296]

Hi Crystal, can you please link your pendants? Great video as always.

[@StacyBerger-b8h]

I found you when they were about a year old wow it’s been fun watching your family grow

[@joycehobbs7564]

I have a fridge like yours so would like to see how you set up the doors & inside fridge more & freezer. Looking forward to seeing your back deck.

[@CarleneAkins]

I love watching your videos Your organization skills are wonderful. Keep up the good work. Happy summer

[@shelleywall5556]

Thanks Crystal for another great video! Happy summertime to your kiddos! Summer break starts end of June here in Ontario. Enjoy this summer and one video a week is more than enough. Love all your house updates. I workout but can’t say it’s my passion lol so I need to rethink my attitude I’m thinking.

[@Christal-r4y]

Love all your videos and content!!! Can’t wait see all the projects come together. Thank you for sharing. You have a beautiful family , God Bless 🤗

[@JamieMarieKY]

Happy Summer Crystal! I hope ya'll have a great summer, looking forward to all of the vlogs! Everything is looking great! Looking forward to seeing the new gym set up!

[@debbiemccann3711]

[@annfoehner4240]

Summer is way too short so enjoy it while you can. Before you know it, kids will be back in school, and the fun begins again. And kids are only young once and blink and they're grown up. Looking forward to whenever you post another video. Have a great Memorial Weekend. Looking forward to your patio make over.

[@barbb.7028]

Crystal, spend time with your family. It's hours you will never get back. We'll be happy with whatever you put out there for us. A week in the life sounds fun-"run with it"

[@zestyolive1353]

Happy summer! Excited to see your home gym when it's done! Hope you get some down time soon - you're so busy - even in the summer! :-) Great video!
