🤯DID WE REALLY HAVE 8 KIDS 9 AND UNDER?!? | ANSWERING YOUR QUESTIONS | Q&A TIME

[@renalangstaff730]

Im impressed young lady. I was a single mom of 2 and got into fire right after school. I wasnt active until I was 32. 6 of my 11 years I was Fire Chief. Our rural area was just like yours. I did EMS 25+ years, SAR and 18 years Law Enforcement. I grew up in central Colo and eastern Ut. I love that some of you younger generation see the wisdom in how you are living. God bless you all.

[@rockymountainhomesteadangela]

Thank you for your service! That's a lot of commitment and dedication. I'm sure you were a very valuable asset to the department with all those skills! We need more people in our area with extra sets of skills!!!!

[@Teena-yi9xw]

You are soo blessed to have a husband who is such a great provider! Sounds like you both constantly make sacrifices for the greater whole of the family. May the Father continue to bless you and keep you.

[@rockymountainhomesteadangela]

Thank you so much!! God bless ❤️

[@danarives6788]

He is so blessed to have you as well. You are a superstar! You’re both setting good examples to your children about GOD & LIFE. Keep up the good work.

What a hoot! Mike’s eyes are glazed over like “Really?! We’re doing Q &A all over - AGAIN?!?” 😂 Well, from my perspective, IT’S GREAT to see The Driving Force AKA The Two of You Together! Of your “Log Cabin,” the two of you have created a BEAUTIFUL HOME for All Ten of You - to-date! Thank you for the hours invested in sharing the joys that “make your world go round, and around, and around!” What love, trust, and confidence you share… TY. ~ Original Main Street Mama Psalm 144:11-15 (NASB-1995; KJV) Sat-11/23/2024 @09:47 AM PT USA HAPPY “Thanks!” Giving to All of You! PS. It’s really nice to hear comments from both sides. TY! It’s obvious that Mike has gained a new appreciation, adoration, and respect for Angela’s varied schedules, tasks, and juggling of time and activities as he watches her videos 🤗! Mike couldn’t do what he does without Angela. Angela could not do all she does without Mike. And TOGETHER, they share a wonderful daily influence in the lives of their children! What precious “Rewards” from the LORD! Psalm 127:3-5, KJV

New subscriber here. I'm in Mississippi, so understand the need for Seasons. I dislike the constant humidity, but do enjoy the "3" seasons when they come. Much respect for setting goals and working towards them. Prayers and blessings for your family and the future!!

[@valeriemacrae8441]

I like mikes answer about finding out about your channel.

[@cjordan919]

Right?! Such a loving response ❤

[@thegraymarlin]

Yay! Loved getting to know you! You both are very driven and motivated people. That is fantastic! Thanks for being so open and honest with us 😊

[@rockymountainhomesteadangela]

Thank you, and thank you for being here! 😊

[@MommaZim2]

I'm surely not the only one that saw a mouse or a pet @ 24:56 run back & forth on the counter in background..

[@rockymountainhomesteadangela]

😂😂😂 I had to go back and check that when you said that. That's the top of my sons head! At 24:54 you can see the far left of the screen where he is walking into the room. We have a lot of cats, so definitely more of a chance a cat would be on the counter than a mouse! Good eye, though! I never noticed that when editing! Our trash can is in the kitchen, so it looks like he walked to it and walked back out.

[@tammycrawford1221]

So impressed with both of you!! As I said in another if your videos.. My hubby has been a volunteer firefighter for 50 years and works a full time job... It's definitely a passion to do it !

[@susanmurten6178]

Thank you for answering my question!! 🙌🏻

[@piotr277]

You can save a lot of water by installing a grey water system to use the runoff from shower, sink and washing machine to flush toilets. Also, a rain catchment system of some sorts if it's permitted in your area. 🙂

[@rockymountainhomesteadangela]

Great ideas! There's many restrictions collecting rainwater here in Colorado, but many people do anyway. We were supposed to put a catchment system up this summer but were so busy wrapping up many other projects.. Hopefully, by spring, we will have something in place!

[@piotr277]

@@rockymountainhomesteadangela Yeah, I though so. Somehow in many of those areas that get stricken with drought, they prohibit people from using the rainwater. It should be the opposite, logically thinking, you're later releasing it back into the ground anyway. Rainwater is good for washing hair or doing laundry because it's very soft also. My great grandmother used to wash her hair only with rainwater. 😉

[@cjordan919]

“How much is useable?” “The driveway.” Thanks for sharing this video. Mike has a sweet smile. And I love the story of how you became a firefighter.

[@rockymountainhomesteadangela]

❤️❤️❤️

[@mariewood9239]

You can take zucchini and freeze dry it and use it as a flour I seen this on acre homestead

[@rockymountainhomesteadangela]

@mariewood9239 Yes, squash and zuchinni are a low-carb flour option!! I've learned things I never thought before from my trainer 😂

[@mariewood9239]

Girl I hear you we are self employed as well. People expect the job to be done asap.but when it comes paying no one in a hurry!

[@pamscraps]

Thank you for sharing. I am definitely a woods, mountains, and farm person. Love love love to have a homestead one day. My husband is a beach man and so we don’t get out much. I’m in Ohio and probably twice your age, married 35 years. Neither of us got what we wanted but we’re content nonetheless. I still plan to buy a home with land and have a few chickens 😬. He’s moving towards my ideas. I have a pretty nice working pantry which he just found a week ago. I was surprised that he didn’t think I was crazy. Political differences, it’s a challenge. I hope all your dreams come true, it helps that you both have the same mindset. God Bless you and your family.

[@rockymountainhomesteadangela]

I pray a door opens for you to find a home with land and plenty of room for chickens. God bless! 😊

[@cathykillion6544]

Enjoyed getting to know yall.

[@rockymountainhomesteadangela]

Thank you so much 😊

[@reneeandrews]

I am gluten and dairy free due to sensitivity. I use Namaste gluten free one for one from Costco and almond milk. Any one for one flour works best. It already has everything you need in it so it’s very easy to use. Angela, I love your channel so much!! I get excited when I see a new video from you! Keep up the good work!❤️❤️❤️

[@rockymountainhomesteadangela]

Thank you so much for answering that question better than I could, Renee!! Also, thank you for being here 😊❤️

[@blockparty621]

We live in Missouri and the summers are so disgustingly humid. Being so close to the rivers. I can't even imagine what Florida is like! 😮 Love your channel! I'm a newbie ❤

[@rockymountainhomesteadangela]

Thank you so much, and welcome! 😊

[@patriciahibbard7345]

What a cute couple! Love that you did this!

[@rockymountainhomesteadangela]

Thank you so much!! 😊

[@tonyacoy2745]

Love watching,

[@debbiealtman5373]

Yes you certainly have plenty of wild life up in the mountains. All the houses are mainly on hills or a lot . The part of Colorado where you are at is rocky. My ex was born and raised in Colorado and I lived there quite awhile till we got divorced. Brighton…. My ex has family all over Colorado. We went far from boulder Colorado. Beautiful place. Great video.

[@_the_left_aint_right_]

I live in a small town that relies on volunteer firefighters and when the alarms go off they drop what they are doing and go even if they are shopping or eating. Everyone knows they'll be back eventually to pay up and such.

[@rockymountainhomesteadangela]

Our town is very similar. The department and town I volunteer for is very small. We don't even have our own police department (our law is an hour away) and the paramedics from the neighboring town are 20 - 30 minutes out on a good day! This community truly relies on us for their safety, which is why I've taken so many extra classes to learn as much as I can. Finished Academy, Hazmat, Emr, Wildland fire. I want to be confident on all our calls. The community depends on us!

[@_the_left_aint_right_]

@rockymountainhomesteadangela We don't have a police dept either, neither does the nearest other town. The sheriff is nearly a hour away. We have a security guard tho, so..... not much help hahaha We do have EMS still so we aren't totally cut off from civilization, just almost. We don't have a traffic light. We don't have fast food other than a Subway wannabe. We have a hospital for both towns but they don't deliver babies so you better hope it doesn't go quick. They had a maternity room when I had my kids, thankfully. I would have delivered my last two on the road if I had to go a hour away. Hahaha

[@rockymountainhomesteadangela]

@_the_left_aint_right_ yep! Sounds the same as us. We dont have any medical facilities, but the town near us does. They stopped doing pediatrics and OB/GYN. They even got rid of hospice and the only nursing home they had. It's making us think twice about growing old here, to say the least 😂

[@_the_left_aint_right_]

@rockymountainhomesteadangela My town is so small...... hahaha Our school,K- 12,the alternative school AND the outreach program are ALL in one place. But......we have one thing no one else has.... a sweet little skate park for the kids, paid for by a actor who has family here. I'm so thankful for that because there's not much for kids here.

[@francorley3205]

Looks like regardless of the struggles god has his hand on both of you.thanks for your channel

[@mrgarner4796]

You are a wonderful family. I grew up on a farm and feel so blessed for having done so.

[@JFlower7]

Wow! Rock, water issues, no flat surfaces, Florida sounds pretty good but happy you are happy.

[@patriciahibbard7345]

loved to see the kids in the background too❤️

[@Ladiebuglane1]

My husband and I met on love at aol.....funny though because our moms knew each other when they were younger. We didn't find that out till my mom met him. We have been married 20 years now. We were harassed so much back then about meeting online. My husband is a Vol firefighter too. He literally runs down the road because most of our calls are EMS for the elderly in a senior housing down the road. I love watching your channel!!! This was a fun one!

[@rockymountainhomesteadangela]

Thank you so much! ❤️ How cool that they knew each other! They must have been blown away when they realized that. I can relate. A lot of our calls are very close to our home, too. Thank you for being here 😊

[@valeriemacrae8441]

Nice to met you Mike you have a beautiful family God bless you all

[@francorley3205]

You guys are so sweet.glad i found you .

[@christinegonzalez3317]

Love this! When are we doing the swap? 😂

[@FosterChicken]

Random comment but I thought you are so beautiful and now that I see your husband, I don't doubt why you have so many children. He's pretty cute and has beautiful eyes! That's a great thing!

[@tammycrawford1221]

Oh wow!! I'm a retired nurse!! So you are also a nurse?!?

[@Tia-vj9ox]

Jessica at Three Rivers Homestead is a good resource for gluten free.
