This Just Feels Right

[@karenhernke281]

Arthur, I'm very proud of you. You have come a very long ways. I'm SO happy that you and Bri didn't just give up and are giving your kids the best life. I'm proud of both of you. You and the boys did a wonderful job cutting the grass. It looks amazing. I'm always praying for your family from WI. Love you all so so much. Karen ❤🙏

[@aussiegardener1773]

It is wonderful to see a couple that are not just walking away from their family but rebuilding. It is rare to see and I have always enjoyed your videos and the love that was clearly present. I am praying for all of you to heal and with God's help grow more loving and stronger as time goes on. What a beautiful lesson for your children and all that know you

[@grandmasewhappyhomestead187]

Amen! Totally agree

[@joni7781]

What a wonderful day at the farm, cleaning up before winter. Teaching those boys to help with the chores will instill good in their hearts. Art, you will look back on the tough days and be so glad God intervened to give you strength for a better future. God bless you❤

[@edieboudreau9637]

You got a lot done today. It took a lot to admit that to everyone. Thank you for sharing not just the good but also the challenging & difficult parts of life.... That's reality and everyone needs to understand reality.

[@irenemathieson4229]

Congratulations on your sobriety. Seeing your family together making plans for the future is a true blessing. Love to all of you. 💕

[@Salomaeful]

I'm completely overwhelmed with pride in every single one of you for not only doing this amazing, careful, hard work repairing your family but also continuing to share your always inspirational lives to help and give us hope

[@bettycaudle4018]

Congratulations on your sobriety. My dad was an alcoholic, I'm just so happy to hear that you are present for your babies, it means the world, as you know, also for Bri. What a huge blessing for your family, that you have goals to continue to rebuild your home and clean up the farm. It's wonderful that you have the other house to live in, in the meantime. It seems like this should relieve some of the pressure and stress you had before. Remember it's in God's plan, and in his timing. God Bless this precious family❤

I got a buck this year! I wasn't hunting though, it ran in front of my truck and I stopped and dressed it before bringing it home!

[@belieftransformation]

Great progress in your lives; thanks for sharing because you will help many others to realize that life takes effort & there are rewards of keeping a family together. Congratulations to you both for growing through this season of your lives. God bless all 🤗🇨🇦🌻

[@sallyinmd8952]

So proud of you, Arthur. Prayers for continued strength & forward focus. I loved your excitement & satisfaction on a productive day at the farm with the boys. You all are so blessed. Thank you for sharing your journey.

[@oldwillowtree173]

❤❤❤❤❤ Great video--Bri looking beautiful! Enjoyed the tracking with the older boys, and seeing the farm again . . . Love the relaxed, little by little approach . . . Also have appreciated the documenting of some of the hard work needed (and being done) after the devastating flood, including the magnificent working horse, tricky road repairing, the shed building work for urgently needed temporary homes etc . . . Thank you for all of it! ❤

[@ladygray4]

Love your videos from the farm, and so glad you're healing your family & marriage! Praying daily for your family.

[@denisebrady6858]

Congratulations on your sobriety, I am currently starting as I was a big daily drinker. I love seeing you All together it makes my Heart smile. Love your Friend Denise- Australia

[@leoniepearce2221]

I’m so pleased to see you all doing so well. God is answering prayers for your family and bringing healing.

[@stephencameron1709]

Beautiful job! You and the boys work so well together. Well done Art! Nice to see Bri and rest of the family too. She’s a hard worker too! Blessings on you all. Val C

[@daniellesduckheadhomestead3127]

Great tracking skills. Great for the kids to learn. It teaches them so much. I hope things work out. Prayers for you all. Congratulations on sobriety. It’s hard work.

[@paulagreen8390]

Sp excited to see ya at the farm. I've been watching for years . Bri always looks happiest at the farm and so does the rest of the family

[@carolwhisenhunt7504]

So great seeing you all together at the farm. It comes alive when y'all are there. The smile on Bri's face says it all when she is there. Love your great family.

[@lindakurtz2653]

God gives us the time and energy in each day to do what He has for us to do. As a person who used to believe I had to start and finish a project in one go, He had to smack me upside the head with our home burning to get my attention and help me recognize that I need only get up and do what He has for me in that day and thats enough. Usually not as fast as I'd like but I'm learning to be ok with that and NOT be the crazy person who is pushing myself trying to accomplish way more than I need to in a day. Blessings on you all and keep reminding yourself of the wonderful example you're setting for your kids. Your title says it all....At the end the day its wonderful to say "This feels just right"

[@andreacooley9428]

I just love it going out to the farm with ya'll❤ God is so Good😊

[@patchworkfarms5327]

I'm so proud of you guys for overcoming life's obstacles and to see you back on the farm brings me so much joy! Much love from Illinois!

[@avonleaellio-i3v]

Blessings to your family and the journey. Life is hard and some seasons bring us to our knees and break our spirits. Kudos to goals of rebuilding, restoring, and healing to your lives. Be encouraged and strengthened in the days and years ahead...

[@gorangers18bates2]

I'm so happy to hear about your sobriety and giving yours and Bri's marriage another chance to grow and improve. Y'all take care and stay safe out there. With much love from Texas 🙂♥️🙏

Hello Art and Bri and family! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! 🎉 Hope you all are well. Hoping to see a new video from you soon.❤

[@donnaoh4442]

How amazing our God's blessings are! Art you are an amazing man, so strong and positive for your family! Bri, please be happy. Embrace the love you have around you. Enjoy being a Mother and a loved wife...look at what you have...life is very short!

[@patriotmama]

Congratulations Art! You are doing an amazing job. One day at a time. My husband was an alcoholic for over 20 years. Holding our family together was really rough, but I knew God had plans for him and did He ever! He has been sober now for over 34 years, teaches our adult Sunday School class, is active in our church, became the Daddy I knew he could be all along, is an AMAZING Grandpa to 16 of the best kiddos and is the joy of my life! God is the one that touched him and God was also the one that held me together when I thought everything was going to fall apart. We have a wonderful little homestead and work it together. My husband was an EMS helicopter pilot after becoming sober (he was in the military and flew helicopters. That's where he got his experience) He is not retired and we are so very happy. Take it one day at a time brother. You are doing a great job. You have an amazing family and God is truly walking with you as well. I wanted to say, don't beat yourselves up so much about the farm. You will get it into shape. My goodness, how many weeks have you both been helping those around you in need that have been devastated by the hurricane??!! We continue to pray for all those that have lost virtually everything. We pray for you and your family as well.

[@susanpaulson9010]

Congratulations on your sobriety. That’s a wonderful achievement. May God continue to heal you and your family.

[@patriciamullins4189]

Congratulations on your sobriety we are all very proud of you ❤️

[@gayburr9942]

I commend you for your honesty. You are living the lessons you are teaching your children. Support for each other. Making amends. Being present. Admitting mistakes and showing your willingness to work on a better life! That will make such a difference in the lives of your children. Thank you all.

[@karenromando4939]

That is great to hear. You are keeping busy and doing a great job. What a great family you have as well. ❤ Happy Thanksgiving and Merry Christmas to all of you. Make Christmas gifts. That is the best gift of all.

[@jordanbragg2209]

Cheering you on from Kentucky, been following y’all since Wilder (and my son who is the same age) was a toddler. I feel so encouraged every time I watch a video and see your family healing. ❤️

[@sheilak4493]

Glad to hear from you guys!

[@oxenrat]

You are a man who has so many skills Art, thank you for being honest with us always about being human and the fact that life was incredibly tough, and it broke you. Seeing you back to the person you were 6 odd years ago is a relief, we care that you found your way back. Take care of yourselves, thank you for your open view always . Love and care from New Zealand x

[@dianewhite8950]

Glad to hear that you want to work on the farm. God bless

Blessings for continued health and happiness with the future

[@magen2271]

Love seeing you guys back at the farm. I’ve been watching lots of your older videos. Excited to see the farm come back to life.

Miss seeing you guys but I understand! Merry Christmas!

[@hazelbellefarm476]

Love seeing this. Not boring at all 😊

[@dianesullivan1047]

22 years sober, congratulations 🎉. It feels so nice to be able to be present for your family 24 seven and not be crap faced.

[@ButtercupAndFernHomestead]

Art and Bri. I love you guys and I feel the stress and pain you have been through over the past several years. BUT... I think its time to change the narrative. If the kids hear you say it over and over that your breakdown was related to the stress of the twins there could be some resentment or feelings of blame and guilt. You dont want those precious babies to carry the burden of the blame for the marriage and family going through the breakup and struggles. It may be the truth of your version. It may have been the tipping point. Now it is time to quit repeating the story and start going forward. A series of events happened that was very stressful, and your family is in recovery. Brighter days are surrounding you now and abright future lays ahead. With love and best wishes. ❤

[@74niknik]

I cant even believe how big those kids are getting!!

[@redeemedforlivinglove3156]

Good job tracking,Brighton!

[@AnnieE2012]

Love this ❤

[@Subeesueinaz]

God is so faithful. I’ve been praying for you and your family since the twins were first born. I’m proud of you, knowing you faced your demons with God’s help. I’ve also been praying you’d come back to the farm where you both felt so much peace. As long as God is at the center of your marriage, you will have greater opportunities for success.

[@annmarie566]

Im so happy to hear that you are sober,l know that was a hard journey for you.l know it was equally hard and heartbreaking for Bri and your children, famand friends that love you. L miss seeing Bri on her channel. L pray you stay sober for all that love you ❤

[@jcgirl3]

Bri, are you okay? You looked a little bit sad and tired. Bless you guys.

[@OilofJoy]

I absolutely love that you are overcoming. It can feel like a wrestling match at times, but my friends you are winning, bit by precious bit and it is ever so worth the battle. We are still praying for you and still love you all! ❤

[@peaceoutlisar9500]

Congratulations on your sobriety. 🎉 Glad to see y'all taking baby steps on the farm.

[@gayemathis3318]

I miss seeing you on this channel, Bri ! ❤❤

[@bonnieheming3053]

You are both amazing people. And the fact that neither of you gave up, and want your marriage to work says a lot about the kind of people you are. More folks should be like you. Admit your faults and move forward . Your strength inspires me.

[@angiebrewer9960]

Been missing Bri…. ♥️🙏♥️🙏♥️🙏

[@dottiegyles1119]

The farm is looking good. You all did so much work! Amazing!

[@VictoriaVickiFulmer]

I sure hope that you can complete the house so you can all move to the farm when you are ready.

[@rachelfrees1268]

Seeing you all healing, being on the farm, laughing/loving is the best. Being able to provide your family with venison, is important. God bless all.

[@brookeboswell6612]

Praising the Lord for His goodness in each of your lives!!

[@debbiebohannan5340]

Hello guys, I so love your family videos and all that is happening in your lives. Bri, my question for you is are your Birch mattress's holding up to your expectations? How thick are the mattresses? We are in our mid 70"s downsizing to a queen size for healthy issues. I need advice from someone who has a Birch mattress. Thanks for your help! 😊

[@blacksheep11277]

Yes. Find God's peace in your hearts. Friendly reminder that any Joy and peace that you feel is God's awareness of you. Let that sink in. Praying for you all on this journey. You fight from victory! Let's Go!!! 🎉🎉🎉

[@DonnaBernauer]

Home is where the heart is. God bless.

[@markitathomas4146]

Congratulations on your sobriety. It's hard but worth it as I'm sure you know. I've been watching for a long time and I am so happy y'all are finding your way back to each other.❤❤❤

[@shirleymurphy1958]

Prayers for things to continue on a smoother road. I am sure your hopes for the farm will come true ❤

congrats

[@TRuth.T]

Congrats, on all of the blessings(continue to stay strong)... Deer season starts tomorrow here (were farmers in central WI). Our goal is 7 deer yrly. This is our last yr. here were putting our farm on the market...

[@electra424]

keep up the great work Art!!!

[@elizabethragsdale7789]

what needs to be done to get the house livable? Is it just guts and finishes or does it still need mold mediation and structural?

[@minnamae25]

Y'all have come a long way. God gives us tribulations to grow our faith. I absolutely LOVE hunting season. I'm a mom of 4, homesteading, homeschooling, small farm, y'all know how much work goes into being a homemaker/mom/teacher. I spend hours in the woods this time of year and I NEED this time to myself. Venison is our main source of meat, we make many different things from it. Burger, bologna, sausage, hotdogs, jerky, meat sticks and a few other things. Hunting season is enjoyable and we can provide meat for our family for the year.

[@dawnpaquette9258]

small idea and i hope it helps maybe rent or ask owners for donated time and effort to mill some of those trees into boards to make more sheds at the least some of the people can store belongings in them if they cant outright live in them temporarily i assume winter coming is gonna be even more of a hardship for these alrdy stressed out people. i have seen that portable at your site millling is possible so 2 birds by using up some of those downed trees into lumber or even firewood to stockpile folks up.

[@margaretvillalpando7722]

I have seen that "tiny house" or large wooden shed on blocks in your videos for a long time now but I've never heard an explanation as to why it's there and what it's being used for. It looks to be on your property. Is it yours? What is it being used for?

[@MM36577]

ART, you are in desperate need of a haircut!

[@Yardsteadinginjamaica]

Keep God at the center of your lives, give him all your care and concerns and let him lead you where he will. Love conquors all

[@SimplyJanHomestead]

I love seeing you at the farm! It clear that it’s where you find your joy and happiness! ❤

[@andreesimoneau6167]

I’ve been watching this channel off and on for a few years now. I’m so glad of your sobriety it takes strength to do what you did. But unfortunately the channel is going in a very different direction than my interests are going. I loved having more bri content so I am sorry but I’m signing off now. Good luck to you both I hope everything you wish for will come true for your.

[@cynthiafisher9907]

I understand, but I think there may be more Bri content once they actually move out to the farm. You might want to hang on a bit longer.

[@daniellesduckheadhomestead3127]

Things evolve and life changes. Nothing ever stays the same. I will continue to support and follow.

[@daniellen9126]

Why no hunters orange on while in the woods during hunting season?

[@biddiemutter3481]

The yard looks so much better now... Good team work!

[@aprilgowins9849]

Way to go on your sobriety I myself just celebrated two years off of all substances it's a hard journey but it is so very worth it. It is really refreshing to see your children helping you and I am praying for God's comfort and guidance in your family. God bless you

[@dianamazzullo9065]

Just came upon your channel. Congratulations on your sobriety. My son is an alcoholic and it’s a struggle for us to watch him go through life this way. I am pulling for you and your family. ❤

[@AnneQ-bk6wi]

My adult son is also an alcoholic. It is heart wrenching to watch him make destructive choices.

[@sharper6577]

Good news. 😊 Living on a homestead is such a blessing. It’s a rewarding lifestyle with built in resilience and resources. 🤗👍

[@chezj4]

What a beautiful property😀

[@barbarabaine6059]

I don't think Bri looks happy. I think the farm is Arthur's dream.

[@yulanblumhagen3955]

She looks like she is having doubts or unsure because of fear of a repeat of mistakes. Praying for total emotional healing in their family

[@beverlyhendricks9456]

I’ve always heard that charity begins at home. Perhaps you might consider that and start working on the house so that your family can be together at the farm. Just a suggestion not a criticism.
