Please don't let anything happen to all your lovely videos. Someday, you'll grow old together in this wonderful home into which you're currently pouring all your strength. How wonderful it will be to go back and watch yourselves do it all over again, and trigger all these precious memories!

[@chrisdouglass7962]

And get a glimpse of themselves thru our eyes 🥰🥰❤️ very eloquently put!!

Illia, The Terminator!

[@deliadruhe7156]

Annika is a very diligent inspector.

[@JudithGolding]

First you do the impossible, again, then celebrate with beer. Perfect. Cheers!

[@wileycoyotesr8623]

I foresee many more video's on this part of your renovation. This video was pure pleasure to watch. Pets, nature, a friend, achievement, and BEER. 👍👍👍

[@teepeeX]

Thank you to Oldies lol for helping this massive task of getting beams up. Well done .. let's continue 😅

[@lulubelle0bresil]

Now, this video has the exact, CORRECT amount of Anneke content! Thank you! 👑🐈‍⬛✨ 🙏

[@eastafrica1020]

Why don't you find yourself a cat channel. There are many on KZbin.

[@bobbiebrandel3152]

The Black and White Unit (cat) is always around......probably to assure that the chimney will indeed work and there will be a warm spot for the winter. Loved the video. Thank you!

[@imochiexe5056]

Bully Beams!!! Bravo to Illia, Marina, Mighty Helper/ Friend/Neighbor/Relative?, catspector, Trappist Monks' beer, measuring 4x and learning from each and every facet of this restoration/renovation. You guys are unstoppable!!!❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉😊😊😊

[@margaritagerman]

My husband and I bought the family home from my parents. We can document family use back to 1840. We have the original deeds. No floor is level. No corner is truly square. Each window is a slightly different size. You get the idea. It is our home and we love it.

[@Simonb1977]

Zundert is a Dutch border village next to Belgium. It’s also the birthplace of the painter Vincent Van Gogh.

[@vanDeudekom]

En zo is het!

[@thatdudeinorange5269]

Moving to another country, learning new languages and alphabets(?) working full time to save up for everyones dream (personal space) adapting to everything and bringing up two children at the same time. You really deserve those beers! 🍻

[@jaymanishere]

I wouldn't have thought of using a hoist to bring up the beams. That was a wonderful idea.

[@kikoc71]

C'mon! Terminator 2, of course! Good job with the beams. Actually, good job everywhere in the farm.

[@walkingstick6655]

Kudos to Illia's ramp/winch/leverage contraption-process. It worked startlingly well. Congrats on using your brain power on making it look so easy.

[@jeanettesantarelli1795]

Ingenious how you got the beams into the attic area. Exciting that now you have started again on the farm house.

[@richryan8904]

Fabulous movie reference! Go Arnold….👍🏻

[@lujeancastleberry7310]

I miss your beer drinking😊

[@jimdelong949]

I bet you're glad that's done The hoist setup worked. I'm so happy for you.

[@leonvanschaick5004]

Zundert beer, its a nice beer. I lovin it.

[@marilynlautner2454]

I love how you work hard and take the time to celebrate your accomplishments. 🍻

[@nativetexson]

Glad to see you guys had help raising the steel beams! The beer looks delicious.

[@JohnBare747]

Oldie on duty, "I'll be back!"

[@2CODO1963]

I am glad to see you continue to sample the various beer from the region. You are so lucky to have access to the best beer in the world, namely Westvleteren #12. That is without a doubt the best Belgian beer I have ever tasted. Also, St. Bernardus gives #12 a run for its money. Je suis heureux de vous voir continuer à déguster les différentes bières de la région. Vous avez tellement de chance d'avoir accès à la meilleure bière du monde, à savoir la Westvleteren n°12. C'est sans aucun doute la meilleure bière belge que j'ai jamais goûtée. De plus, St. Bernardus donne du fil à retordre au n°12

[@phillipdickinson8557]

Great job you two beams in place thank you Illia and Mariana turffic job great beer explanations thank you for sharing and your time thank you

[@joannarainbow1852]

A relationship like most married couples….yes indeed. Thank you for being honest. 😁👍

[@penihavir1777]

Ah, the joy of an old house!!! I know it well. 🙂 But you always succeed in the end, and haven’t lost your playful side. 👍

[@nickirutkowski6517]

Amazing ! Your ingenuity, process and work ethic are phenomenal.

[@paulbombardier8722]

Ah yes, I remember well the Trappist beers from Belgium. Never had a Trappist beer I didn’t like. There was a Trappist monastery here in Massachusetts that made some for a few years. I found out recently that they had to stop for some reason.

[@oriorda9470]

What a beautiful couple.

[@RigorFortis]

Skynet applauds your hard work!

[@donnamullins2089]

Good job getting all the steel beams inside. Glad you had help. Always some adjustments Enjoy your well deserved beer. See you next week.

[@erniegroen1]

Leuk om te zien dat jullie de traditie om een biertje te drinken na de arbeid, weer opgenomen hebben! Ik miste alleen de juiste flesopener.😀😀😀

[@garykirk9888]

Hope you get to that next step of the project!!!

[@anthonygrodecki7968]

I now the beers if you drink more than one you will notice it it’s alcohol. But you will not notice the liquorice by this time either. But please don’t look a the tape measure after drinking the beer. I have to say having worked all over Europe all houses before the 50s are all a lot bent or out of true. It’s part of the reason we like them. Happy to see your back on the main house. However summer will come and outside projects will demand attention this is life. Thank you for sharing your adventures😊

[@SarcasticGimp]

The Terminator 2 thumbs up did it for me!!

[@scottbennier1335]

Greetings from Oz 🇦🇺…… Love ya work !! ……. Next time we visit Belgium 🇧🇪 (We were there in 2017)…… Who knows?, but we would love to sit down with You Guys and have a few frothies (beers) with You. Cheers 🍻

Als een geoliede machine proficiat💪

[@lindacarruthers3423]

It must be something of a relief to get those great heavy metal beams into their proper places . Watching you organize massive enterprises without the assistance of cranes and so on is very interesting and makes me wonder if you might be genetically connected to those fellows who built the pyramids.Yet again, very well done❤

[@MikeAnderson-ze5ek]

A new beer tasting! I watch to see your renovations... BUT, I have missed the beer tastings.

[@dshey6802]

Wow, Annika was in a lot of frames of the first half of the video. I like beer that is the color and taste of molasses. Whatever nationality. You will need to have a keg of beer when that ceiling is finished!!!

[@claireburkus8497]

Good job done!! You are on a journey and enjoying all the steps it takes to get there!! And you kitty is definitely enjoying this new life!!❤

[@lynetteyoung9777]

Three iron beams upstairs and work on positioning them. Good job.

[@calypso4554]

Yeah! Great system to pull up the beams, and then finally a beer tasting. Cheers!! ❤ Btw the problem with the beams is not your fault, Illja. It was because the catspector was not supervising correctly...😉

[@hidoito5866]

I understand the 'oldie' reference. Not sure if I'm happy though 😂

[@robinschwab5172]

I like your videos, so enjoyable watching the two of you work together. If you can, watch Escape to rural France. Dan has been placing steel beams also, you may find some ideas to help you.

[@gunthervanmechelen4358]

Zo een lekker trapsiche hebben jullie wel verdiend scholl👍

[@jslynn8799]

Who is the man that helped you get the I beams up and somewhat inplace. Love watching you guys and the inspector cat.

[@Andbygrace7024]

Excellent videography 😊

[@jorisridderdevanderschuere1830]

I will use the Trappisten beer info about Zundert Beer, here in Canada

[@mousegouse]

What an excellent BOSSLADY she is 😄 Her presence must do a lot to boost moral on the jobsite. She even sits down and has a beer after all the hard work is done. You guys are making wonderful progress. What a lovely couple 😍....... I mostly watch because of the cat tho 😸

[@userdefined383]

Отличная работа! Сил вам и успехов)

Terminator 2 reference, lol😁👍, just watched it again the other day! best action movie ever!

[@thomasspainhour1112]

Cheers 🍻 NC USA

[@Rudi-Mhz]

Zundert is though stuff ! After that, you should not try to build a straight wall........but but that means nothing in an old House....😉

[@margf.6773]

This is a very good video. Thank you.

[@kentshrader6616]

Another great video! So great to watch your projects come together and then to see you relaxing and laughing together with a beer in your hands! The crane has proven to be a great idea. Catspector seems relaxed doing well! Quick question: Was the land that is being cut for hay once part of your farm at some time in the past?

[@dianak4461]

Best outro ever. You two are funny.

[@msuestiegemeier7618]

Ahhh, yes, I have been waiting for another Tasting. Salute'

[@toddylu6869]

Fun video!! Kudos to your friend for helping.

[@msuestiegemeier7618]

Marina, loved your History lesson on the Trapist Brewery.

[@Tom-Lahaye]

Marina keeps the tradition going, many crane operators in Ukraine and other East European countries used to be women as they are more precise and careful as men 👍

[@NailahRoberts]

So glad the cat inspector is still keeping an eye on progress 😊

[@soilihenriksson3696]

Old houses can be renovated many times and make more diffycult.

Terminator 2 ❤

[@cynicallyyours61]

Count me in. I understand the Terminator reference

[@Garett.1214]

You should never have the I beams as a secondary beam. You should take out the ones that’s go across and put in the I beams there. Never lay I beams on wood.

[@glenlongstreet7]

The beer makes it easier to plan. (or maybe not?)

[@richardfearn6638]

I think that was a genius engineering solution for getting those beams in place. Are you a professional engineer?

[@arjanvogel6444]

Thanks for your vid 😇💟💟💟 Love and bless you all guys, good work 👍😁💪👌👏👏👏

Nice to include a little beam action with your beer commercial.

Is it safe to put those heavy iron beams supported on top of the old wooden ones? some seem a bit thin...

5 minutes of beer advertising? and add the You Tube advertising, there is little left for the video that is actually about it. We are not subscribed to your channel for all those advertising videos. Too bad you need this to finance your renovation.

Please don't use the word "WE" in your comment...because I don't feel the same as you!

You continue to move forward through setbacks without sarcasm and criticism that attacks one another. Bless your future together!

Take heart Ilya, the mistakes are part of the journey. You will work through them with your ingenuity and tenaciousness. Cheers.

Impressive display of beam logistics!

[@anniehawkins6321]

Beautiful country and beautiful home! It will be even better one day. You both work together and make it seem effortless. I know it’s hard work and there’s sore muscles to deal with. I love watching your videos and your teamwork. You are going to have such a beautiful home soon. I am happy that you both have allowed me to be a part of the process.

You did not ask Madam Inspector for your measurements, never do it again ;-)
