Literally spit my coffee out when Evan inturrupted the filming with the "Warning message!!" is what makes you and Carlins vlog so popular and, entertaining. Its literally like watching a comedy show. Even when some of your vlogs are about not so good news it continues to draw us in as viewers. I want to let you know its entertaining and heartwarming to see a young christian couple running businesses, raising kiddos and serving the Lord. Stay ENCOURAGED as you allow your viewers into a glimps of your life.❤❤

You pay roughly $2000-3000 *per eye* for Lasik eye surgery so whatever clinic you go too to get it done, that Doctor and staff better be nothing but sugar and spice from the moment you first walk in the door for a consult til the moment you leave after getting the surgery done. lol If they're not dripping with kindness and professionalism when you go in for that very first consultation, you need to turn around immediately and don't look back. Never forget you're paying them big bucks and doing them the favor for choosing their clinic to do the job.

Evan take a breath. It’s OK I had both of my lenses replaced. Lasik is nothing compared to that. They literally take the lens out of your eyeball and you go blind. They pop a new lenses back in. You’re totally awake. You do not feel nothing. You just know when you get that lens back in you can see everything. I’m sure you’re recovering just fine! 💕💕

Did you give Dr. Stewart a Stew Crew hat? 😊. I think they say no cologne because of other patients or even staff that are allergic to certain smells. Some people get really bad headaches. I work in a hospital and we’re not allowed to wear perfume. Also, life insurance is a must if you can afford it. I seen first hand how it helps a family. My brother in law passed away at the age of 47 from cancer. My sister had always been a stay home mom. Having life insurance she was able to pay off her house. My brother in law before he passed away told me to make sure she did and that he didn’t care what else she did with the money. The only thing he wanted was for her and kids to always have a place to live! So glad your surgery went good Evan!

Term life insurance is a really good deal and so important when your kids are minors. I didn’t have my child until I turned 40. When I was 47, I got a $700,000 term life insurance policy for a 15-year term for only $49.50 a month. When it ended, my child was in her early 20s - the policy gave me such peace of mind while it was in force.

You’re very brave, Evan. Kudos to you for stepping up and embracing your “fear”. I am all for “elective” medical procedures that make our lives easier. But I am squeamish about my eyes. Bc we can’t repacked the. So I do as little as possible to irritate them. This is one procedure I never considered bc of that very small percentage of what could go wrong. Now I’m too old so it won’t help me anymore. Unfortunately.

Evan you ae right. You need to have life insurance. You need to have money for a funeral too. So important topic for sure. However, I highly suggest you preplan funeral when you are not emotional. There is no need to let an unscrupulous funeral director find out how much the life insurance policy is and sell you an expensive funeral you don’t need. I saw it over and over as a hospice nurse. Good to have these discussions.
