Tidying the Greenhouse, Shoveling a Bunch of Snow & Repotting 3 Houseplants! 🪴❄️🪴

[@johntheabolt7750]

Dearest Laura, I've said it before, we'd watch you watching paint dry 😂😂! But your comment about the beautiful landscape around you shoveling snow...YES! And thank you for always doing the regular, run of the mill jobs we all do!

[@wheaties1435]

Yes…enuf with the “I know it’s not riveting…”. I know where to go if I want to watch riveting …. Great editing guys!

[@andreaanderson8863]

I am so jealous of your powdery snow, I am in Vancouver WA and we just got hit with ice. Yuck.

[@kimaponte7082]

Loved your comment❤

[@tinam9844]

Lol glad that Benjamin had a wonderful birthday 🎂. Laura, you guys need a snow blower lol

[@lbarmstrong1]

Watching Laura shovel snow from ATL is super great! We thought we might get a couple flakes on Tuesday, but it never happened. Ha, kids were out of school just in case though. That always happens...they cancel everything and then....nothing. When they don't cancel, we all get stuck.

[@deborahhardy963]

We really missed seeing you today. My 43-year-old forever little girl (Special needs) We love to watch you together ever morning. She likes to garden with me because of you and your wonderful family ❤ God Bless

[@kathrynmcclymond9551]

Thank you for not laying music over the video of Laura shoveling snow. I love the sounds of the snow being lifted on the shovel, of the shovel scraping the brick, and the soft powdery snow falling from the shovel onto other snow. The entire sequence was calming, even meditative, and I love it! Thank you for helping us all see the beauty in our everyday tasks and surroundings.

[@FernsAndForest]

I could even hear a chirping bird

[@kathy5216]

I agree but did anyone else wonder why she didn’t clean the snow off the trucks before shoveling around them?

[@ashleymarierael]

So do I! I like that sound.

[@lurk1953]

When you don’t have months and months of snow, it’s more exiting. Haha

[@cynthiag3065]

I loved the no music too 😊

[@michellelafontaine9556]

Laura - I can identify one of your many super powers - you are impervious to heat and cold! No gloves or hat in the winter and long sleeves, dark shirts in the summer. You are truly amazing - you even make shovelling snow interesting. Thank you for sharing your lives with us.

[@jacquipalasek2571]

😂 Laura is shoveling the path and here comes Russel the Foreman! Glad the party went well❤

[@mireillewilson5911]

Happy birthday Benjamin 🎂 we've seen him grow up on this channel. God bless you little man ❤

[@LadyNance]

Just an FYI - I use my leaf blower for dry snow in the Chicago area. It gets it down to the bare pavement so no ice for me or my dog! Love the snow!!

[@TMYPiscesSunandMoonRising5548]

I thought it was just me. I used it in DC yesterday while it was still fluffy 😂😂

I can't believe Aaron doesn't have a snowplow for the Gators!! That's the way to go...fun in the snow while clearing your paths!!

[@heatherwoods5703]

With so much of their driveway having pea gravel, I suspect it doesn't make sense to plow much. That has to be hard to clear. Our driveway is concrete and we used to have an asphalt one. They were much easier to shovel down to the bare surface. Details people never think of if they don't live where it snows much. 😱🥶

[@Joy-oz4mg]

That's true, although gravel is much better if you have ice and freezing rain. Gives you more traction.😊

[@amyfrancois9121]

I ROCK SALT my pea gravel driveway in VA year round. It kills (2) birds @ the same time, (1) it works as a weed control & (2) snow/ice melt instantly on contact.

[@FernsAndForest]

While effective and convenient, it's a contaminant, and an be toxic to cats and dogs@@amyfrancois9121

[@gilliandawson6567]

I suggest John Deere make a grader attachment for Benjamin's tractor, and he would have fun.

[@lynemmerson9417]

It might not seem to you that clearing snow is interesting for us but here in Melbourne (Australia) we don’t have snow. I ‘m intrigued by the challenges you face in winter and the importance of edging and then shovelling snow for safe walkways and driving to mark out the road. Thanks for your videos. I learn something new all the time.

[@tifflet818]

I live in Texas and we get snow maybe one day a year. But never enough to shovel it. But we would never need to because the whole state shuts down for that one day lol!

[@kebergify]

The ever faithful Russell, trotting behind Laura as she shovels the walk. So cute!

[@snowballjennjenn2825]

I always found it so peaceful to shovel in the mornings! No body is out!

[@shirleyrothouse8057]

Totally agree. Loved early morning shoveling when we lived in Indianapolis then the mountains of western NC. We also had small dogs that did not want to put their tuchus in the snow doing their duty, so had to also shovel snow off some of the grass for them.

[@ritasicari7518]

Me, too. Loved it. Not so easy as I get older, but still like it.

[@hollyashton7009]

It is! Snow blowers are so noisy, I prefer to shovel

[@brocktoon8]

LOVE that there was no musical accompaniment to your yard work. I really prefer just the natural sounds.

[@2ManyTomatoes]

Heated sidewalk is exactly where my mind was going! In our area (western NY) there are some people with really challenging, steep driveways, that heat the whole driveway. They pour concrete with heating elements in it. In certain situations it is almost a necessity. In your case, the main walkway you use every day would be such a luxury. Love how Russell found the path to the studio so quickly!

[@claracorimao1024]

A blessed and good evening to everyone!...happy birthday Benjamin, You where not yet born I follow garden answer, even the announcement of Laura's pregnancy and choosing your name. Wow! it's been a long time now.

[@VijiShamannaSPS]

Love the sound of the scrape. Very satisfying and calming. That was a heck of a lot!!!. How come you guys don't have a garage? One that opens into your home, comes in handy in icy or rainy weather?. You have been a game-changer for me. Vive la Laura!❤

[@jessicalatorraca8507]

Love the no-music shoveling! I got to talk about the video w/ my husband, while watching you shovel! Love it. Those natural sounds & time frames are fantastic 👍🏻🩵

[@beckybanta126]

It has been said by many of us about every video how much we enjoy whatever you & Aaron are creating, tsking care of, etc. This one is no exception. Thank you for taking us along. A giggle.....while you were shoving, the cc prompter kept showing the word "Applause"! So i did! 🤣 Well done! 😁

1:00 Here in Mexico we always break the piñatas outside, and Laura, you are 100% right, no one wants dizzy blindfolded kids or adults swinging around a stick inside the house either, doing it in the greenhouse is perfect and also that cake piñata is adorable.

[@barbaramccann7944]

Enjoy the heightened winter interest from the snow. Northern Michigan (snowy!), I highly recommend the Garant Poly Sleigh shovel, no lifting, just scoop and push/pull the snow off . It’s been a back saver for me, on flat surfaces like pathways and deck. It’s a great gift, too, from Ace Hardware.

[@allison471]

@barbaramccann7944 thank you for sharing! I just Googled the shovel you recommended, definitely something I need for myself here in Michigan!

[@barbaramccann7944]

@@allison471 I’m just northwest of Traverse City and use it daily, but I’ve given at least 5 as gifts to family and friends (sometimes I have a $10 coupon from ACE). Even my son in Southfield mentioned how helpful it was, in addition to the snowblower, this past weekend. Only downside it I can’t use it on my Trex Deck, but I’ve wrapped the metal blade on an older one in about 8 layers of duct tap (and labeled “deck use only”) so I don’t scratch the surface. It works!

I just might get one, I live in the Oklahoma Panhandle, we had a blizzard the snow drifts are the Pitts ugh.

I just looked that up and if you have a bad back one still has to lift it dump the snow off?

Hope Benjamin had a great birthday. A small snow blower for as many paths as you need for around the house and other buildings. Thanks for taking us along.

[@darastrout1574]

A small snowblower so Aaron can help would be a good thing😂. In the northeast, I started using a heavy duty leaf blower on pathways and my wrap around porch when we’ve had dryer snow, it will get you down to pavement in a hurry and be less treacherous for all and is fast. As long as you don’t let it build up more than a couple of inches it works great.

[@bonniemacdougall4589]

How does Aaron not have a snow blower among his toys? Snow is beautiful. We got ice in Portland. Happy Birthday, Benjamin!

Use your leaf blower for powder snow, or make use of that tractor to clear the snow! And then make a big pile of snow from scooping your lane for the kids to sled down, play in and dig tunnels. Just think of the army men adventures that could happen in a big pile of snow, lol. That hill by the red barn on your new property might even work for sledding if you have cleared it up a little.
