was ☕️☕️nice watching you put the food away..💙🌹❤️

[@vickykirkland6629]

Both please. It's fun to watch. And makes me feel so guilty I dont have it so organized lol 🥰

Putting away.🍓

[@kimberlystatzer4767]

Watch the putting away 👍🙂

[@shannonscrazyhouse877]

Do both

[@rosie4696]

That was oddly really satisfying to watch! I hate messy cupboards, love how Andrea was so organised...and the way she labelled everything. Never seen such a organised fridge 😊

[@melissa1118]

I agree!

[@1214rdc]

Man I miss Andrea!!! Loved her so much. She was so organized and a fantastic mother and wife. I think of her often.

[@SpookyBur]

I miss watching Andrea put away, organize things, and explain her logic behind the way she had stuff organized.

[@taracree8016]

I miss Andrea so much. I've learned so much from her. Such a beautiful soul. Insanely, amazing Mother, and deep devotion to her children and wonderful husband. Her spirit clearly shines brightly through her family.

[@Kingsleykrewvlogs]

Oh.. and also LOVED that you kept the Mandolin music at the end... it's such a nod to Andrea and I LOVE it !!

[@emilyjean222]

Me too. 💙

[@sandramullen7804]

Me too

[@salzburg18]

I find it hard to believe that self righteous people would have the audacity to attack Tom and April. Tom didn't leave Andrea for April, Andrea very sadly died. April's husband sadly died too. They are not doing anything wrong and everyone has the right to be happy. Please people, only judge if you are flawless!

[@galady8632]

It is sad that both April and Tom lost their spouses. That is a tragedy they share. Whether they marry or not is not the issue. They could be terrific friends or spouses. As long as everyone's children are safe and happy they are responsible parents. I do wish April, Tom and all the children all the happiness and joy possible. Both April and Tom prioritize their children. Everything else will be as it should be. They are a lovely couple - whether a couple of friends or a married couple - I anticipate a meaningful friendship that could be priceless.

[@nancyfarkas3592]

I agree. And people should not be attacking him for moving on. Everyone moves on when they are ready. Does not mean he does not love his first wife or that he has forgotten her. But he has a right to be happy.

[@ItchyMilk]

Thank goodness I wasn't the only one thinking this. They'd make a wonderful couple. But if the not, it's nice for both of them to have someone who understands their struggles. Wishing them the best.

[@toniconder696]

[@janetbrown5679]

I really like how April is helping put everything away, it looks like Tom and April are becoming friends

[@chicky28799]

Oh they're dating? I only watch the grocery vids so when there was just suddenly a woman present I was confused. I couldn't tell if he had just hired someone to help out or if he found a girlfriend

[@lizg5574]

What I liked - no, LOVED - was hearing a spark of happiness and contentment in your voice, Tom. I met and married a recent widower, albeit no children to care for. God ordained it and we have had 32 years together so far! God's plans are for our good. He has a purpose for everything we face and walks with us every step of that journey. I am certain that the legacy of love left by Andrea will equip you for a fresh chapter as that time comes. Just keep doing what you're doing! Lots of love to you all! xxx

[@marshaabbott436]

I think I like the reverse better, shows us how you make room for everything, I never realized how organized Andrea was!

[@cherylemaybury9967]

April seems like such a lovely person and a real asset to your family. The most important thing is how happy and relaxed you appear now. The kiddos seem to be much happier to have her around too. I sure hope that you guys have an awesome future together. Having someone to lean on during the grief process can certainly help with the healing. I love how she is happy to have Andrea included in your future and is not insecure about that. She seems to be everything that you all need.

[@endeavouringit]

Ditto !!!!

[@Chelsa525]

This hurt my heart a little because you could see how much time and effort Andrea had put into keeping things organized and in there place. 😢❤️

[@lisab.1559]

Yes agree. Andrea definitely put her heart and soul into managing and organizing her home. Now that she is in heaven, excited to see the next chapter of their lives with April. ❤😁

[@CGH250]

Vincent Felix - does April live there with the family?

[@armpitfuzz]

Andrea was, quite rightly very proud of her pantry.

[@leannecrook4472]

I missed the shopping in store , but liked seeing the pantry, I'm greedy _ you should do both!

[@becangela869]

I agree both!!!

[@mariagarza1141]

I really missed Andrea alot

I miss her too it's just not the same😢

[@cinnamonbun1354]

I think we all miss her :( she was such a Wonder Woman, I do wish I could of met her in person and asked her for advice. But April seams like such a lovely woman too I glad they have found each other

[@jeanmarcks6269]

Maria Garza ya me too!! Lost a good friend on utube

[@everydayblue7798]

After seeing you put it all away.. so much more makes sense now. lol I love all the bins in the freezer and pantry. I think all of the organization has really kept things going smoothly.

[@judyk2232]

Was nice to see Andrea at beginning again ❤️

[@heavenrivers8818]

Andrea was such a great organizer and April honored her beautifully...Tom, I'm kinda starting to think Andrea handpicked April for you 🥰😍😘

[@simplepleasuresfarm3386]

I’ve been thinking the same thing. She was heaven sent for Tom and the kids! ❤️

[@lisab.1559]

Yes Andrea did pick April. She wanted her family in capable, loving hands and why April came so fast. April is just what the family needs!

[@hafdissigurdardottir3176]

This was a great idea 💡 I love to see how you organize your groceries 👍 I’m really impressed at how much you can fit in your fridge, how it is so organized 👍👍👍👍 What a blessing to see April do this with you. ❤️ Blessings to you all 🙏 Looking forward to see April and her family visit you all again 😊 Really Love ❤️ too see you all so happy 😃 Love from your YT friend from Iceland 🇮🇸 🦋🦋🦋

[@ginnab777]

It's nice to see all of Andrea's touches around the house. She's definitely missed 😔❤

[@annerosario6302]

Great job Tom!! We all miss Andrea so much, but you are doing a great job!

[@saraatintochristlikeness9098]

Seeing the pantry sure makes me think of Andrea. She was so super organized! Love it! You are doing a good job!

[@francesgrech8930]

My preference is watching your shopping being stacked in their places. Boy, what an organisation! Makes me want to organise mine 😄. May God bless you all Mills family! 🙋‍♀️💕

[@nosybutnice7538]

I would love BOTH! And seeing Andrea’s labels made me cry. Miss her so much! But I’m so glad April is there helping you. Y’all are so cute!

[@rueivy]

Seeing Andrea's organisation and labels again made me realise how much I miss that content. I enjoyed this video and would love to see a mixture of this and monthly shopping, although we do get weekly local shopping already.

[@kakelinga]

For having a small house, Andrea was super organized and used each space for maximum efficiency. God rest her soul.🙏😥

[@MamaGypsysCaravan]

I like the put away way. Lol. It was awesome to see your fridge and Mills Market. Andrea made everything so organized and accessible. The pull out containers in the fridge are so convenient, and Andrea's labels are perfect.

[@sherryhenderson906]

Changes is good every now an then😏 Amazed how Andrea kept everything ORGANIZED. .

[@dianelinch6280]

I always like the shopping but seeing how and where you store everything was very interesting. Andrea and you have organized and customized everything so well. It's very impressive. My suggestion is to alternate months showing both!!

[@daniellebudick9485]

Definitely seeing the shopping.

[@daniellebudick9485]

Must see getting everything in one cart.

[@Whoknows867]

I loooooved this kind of video!!! Soooo satisfying!

[@thewoodenspoon9679]

Loved this Tom! I love shopping with you also! It looks beautiful! You sound like a happy heart. Love you guys!

[@lisamohr7791]

I really liked seeing how organized the inside of the refrigerator is. The labels and organizers are a great idea! We have a small family but the inside of our refrigerator and pantry are a disaster. Andrea had amazing organizational skills!

[@elainecobb6583]

Seeing the shopping is my vote.

[@coverdalegirl]

very satisfying watching you putting everything away! Thanks for sharing this!

[@christinathrelkeld4474]

I enjoy watching shopping and “reverse” shopping! Thank you for sharing. I adore your sweet family!

[@SISSYKAY]

Watching you and April put all the food away together put a smile on my face. I liked seeing the food put away, but also like seeing the shopping. So I'm no help with that question. :)

[@knuddelkatze452]

This brought so many memories of andrea back! Seeing her herbs and the way she organized everything....! Neautiful! Thanks for the video!

[@apriljeanmougin7608]

Eden and I spent an hour or more talking about how we can use mom's herbs. It was a great chance for us.

[@knuddelkatze452]

@@apriljeanmougin7608 That's really great! Eden is such a sweet girl and i am glad she has you to talk. To be honest, it is hard to see another woman in "andrea's pantry" eventhough i really am happy for tom and you. I wonder how it is for the older boys to see you around. Pls, don't get this wrong, you are a very nice person but it still must be be hard for them (as well as for your kids to see you with tom). I wish you all the best and hope everything works out wonderfully!

[@knuddelkatze452]

[@susankirkland8861]

I'll be here watching either way 😊 (long time subscriber) I enjoyed watching you & April work together. Be Blessed❤️

[@esthers9140]

As I watch this my thoughts are...I'm thankful that Tom has April now but...I cant imagine him watching this and not feeling a sense of sadness, loss...Andrea made all this so much easier for them now. I hope Tom and the children build many new great memories with April.🤗

[@FindingMyLight]

I love this comment,, i don't like some straight forward harsh comments but i know that most are coming from a place of feeling "loyalty" to Andrea. I was sad because I think the thought of Tom seeing someone else makes even more real Andrea is gone. BUT Andrea is not forgotten and he has not all of a sudden fell out of love with her,, his feelings towards April will be different, their own.. I am happy for Tom and want him to be happy,, I think we all still struggle with her death (as odd as that sounds since most of us only knew her online but she impacted each and everyone one of us). their children will always mean a piece of Andrea will always be around,, Just like Tom, the children deserve to be happy,, and we all know when parents are happy their children are a reflection of that. They will ALWAYS have their memories with their mom,, more so than many of us,, i would love to have tons of videos of my Mom, but I don't.. April is not replacing Andrea,, she is there to help them make some new memories while holding on to their old,, I wish them all the very best

[@melindabanning7707]

I haven’t watch for awhile so I was wondering about the nice pretty lady in the video. I am also happy for them. ❤️🙏

Great the way Andrea had everything so organized and your keeping that way Tom, miss Andrea she will always be miss was a beautiful Lady! That Lady April is a great help so sad she loss her husband you both work well together God Bless you both! Thank you for sharing Tom hugs Mills Family God Bless! Liz.

[@denisej4522]

I always enjoy seeing how everyone works as a team to haul the groceries in and put them away. Fun to see Judah and Asher at the end. As far as shopping versus putting away, I think you should do whatever you enjoy most, Tom. Perhaps alternate?

[@endeavouringit]

yes I agree totally

[@okayme6609]

I liked the reverse shopping- would love to see this again.

[@janellehansen4340]

True, but when there are so many chores, some just aren't that important.

So relaxing to watch! Andrea’s systems are incredible. I have an urge to organise my fridge lol The shorter videos are so much better. I never have time to watch the really long ones. Happy that you are happy, Tom. xoxo

Seeing the shopping is my preference. Thanks for the video!

[@jenna081683]

I like both but prefer seeing the shopping I love watching you stack the cart! 😂👍😂👍

[@pinkiemitchell8296]

Well I guess I'm by myself but I like to put away

[@colaw77]

I love both ways...I loved seeing the fridge and pantry organization again, as it has been awhile since I watched Andrea's videos about them. She had a place for everything, and you can see how it helps keep a large family organized. I think she would really like April. It is very evident that you and the kids are comfortable and relaxed, and happier in a way you haven't been since losing Andrea. Praying for all of you still, and have been including April and her kids as well now. 😊

[@candicegolden8859]

Looks like April is taking over. I'm happy for you Tom. You two act like youve been friends for years.

[@karingjerset4857]

I like both the shopping vlogs and this putting away in the pantry vlog. I hope you keep up doing both styles of video!

[@kristinemenster8285]

Your pantry organization is marvelous. It's so nice to see Aoril with the family...looking so forward to her coming back in July.

[@jojoply]

Andrea had things in place so it could be kept without total chaos. Almost like she foresaw. I liked to see a bit of light in Tom’s eyes and voice. Who knows...may the future bring much happiness.

[@Ladiebuglane1]

I enjoyed watching you put away. Change is good. I will admit it was bittersweet to see someone else in Andrea's space. I can tell she is going to be just as sweet and organized though. Also loved when she challenged you to organize and rotate..lol! I about died when you tossed the new bacon on top of what was already in there 🤣🤣

[@acvalentin1208]

April is a very nice match for you and yours and I can't wait to see her children interact with yours. I pray to God for many blessings to your new life and please enjoy it as you are living still and Andrea is in a much better place and as a loving wife that she was I am sure she wants the best for you and the children. I have always enjoyed watching your channel and therefore would like to watch both but I'll settle for the shopping.

[@Cyndaquil12345]

I like seeing the shopping but seeing it all put away is cool too! I say both haha

[@myirishbroodof9570]

This was fun to watch. I love how organized Andrea was. I would love to watch both shopping and put away.

[@lameeshalameesha]

Tom and April, I am happy for you! Watching your journey caused me to ponder what my wish would be for my husband should I pass before him. More than anything I wouldn't want him to become lost in his grief. I would want him to find someone he could share life with...the ups, downs, and everything in between. We all need a partner in this life! And when a love is as true as yours and Andrea's (and mine and my husband) we want more than anything for the other to be happy. I see a lovely friendship/partnership/love developing here! April, you seem to be gently entering the kids' lives with grace! Love and Blessings to you all!

[@grgumgee1]
