THE HONEST REASON WE MOVED… HUGE CHANGE COMING FOR OUR FAMILY!

[@TravisandKatie1]

We’re doing a Q&A next week! Feel free to drop any questions below! Thanks🤎

[@matildaneufeld4926]

How did you guys meet and how did you know you wanted to start dating?

[@ATiredMom]

Was it difficult for Katie to shift some of her beliefs such as wearing pants?

[@ksnow4105]

Katie do you still want to work in cosmetology or do you prefer to work in the home as a Mumma?

[@phantom71753]

Katie, are you planning to work at BSB

[@lisah.07]

Keep on Following God's Plans!

[@jukes243]

That makes sense. You moved so Katie would be closer to family while you are "touring." Hailey's shoes! Soooo cute. Love her pink car too! Papa and Gigi are in love with that baby girl. Just look at their faces. Sing your heart out for Jesus, Travis. HE's Worthy!

[@heysaysarita]

Sounds like he also has to get on the bus in Nashville. 😊

[@michellesummers5441]

Had a Palisade Calligraphy for almost 3 years. 56k. No issues. We love it.

[@kimberlyalexander6134]

So happy for you! "Big Enough" was one i turned to SO many times living in a domestic violent marriage. But God rescued me and now i am happily married to an amazing man. I'm so thrilled to see what God is doing in your lives and that you allow Him to lead you!

[@raspberrysky17]

Good luck on your tour! I always want to request your songs on Christian radio! I will definitely start trying to do so because you are such a talented artist, Travis! Katie, I love the way you support Travis in his music career! You both have so much God-given talent and you use it and nourish it the way the Lord wants us to do.

[@kaystarnes269]

CONGRATULATIONS!!! No one knows what things will look like in a year.😊 Just keep your faith and trust in God, He's got this! 🙏

[@juliewatson3966]

Seeing Hailey with her Grandparents was so sweet, they will really miss her now they have moved away. I’m so excited for baby no 2, Hailey will be just the best big sister ❤️

[@michelek5207]

Hailey saying Gigi was so cute 🥰. Love seeing Travis's Mom and Dad. Love Hailey's bumper car, she was so cute driving it. Good luck on your tour Travis.

[@lizdalmaceda9662]

My nosy self would legit love to know how y'all afford the lifestyle you're in... The apt. rent (& misc.), the tesla pmts, & now another brand new SUV... The traveling. All the things??🤔🙂

[@smartgrandma]

I am so excited for you both with so many amazing gifts from God ahead! Keep listening to God's guidance. God won't steer you wrong! Mike and I have been living our lives with God's guidance throughout our 48 1/2 year marriage and we especially rely on Him during our difficult times. Mike is a cancer survivor and now has Alzheimer's. I have had ME/CFS for the past 31 years, plus Long Covid, Asthma, Fibromyalgia since early childhood, Glaucoma effects my eyesight greatly, and have had 7 surgeries. I have been housebound and recliner/bedbound for the past 10 years. God continues to get us through everything. We feel so badly for the people who don't have a close relationship with God. No matter what lies ahead for you all, God will always be there by your side guiding you and loving you. Please keep us in your prayers. When we pray together every night for all of our family members and friends, you are all in our hearts for God to see (that includes your entire family on both sides). Never underestimate the power of prayers (Travis, that may make a wonderful song)! With my love, prayers, and gentle hugs.....from Donna in Florida. 🥰

[@joannemackenzie2586]

GOD Is ABSOLUTELY GOOD ALL The TIME 👏🎉🕊🙌❤️ to All from B.C. Canada 🇨🇦

[@WowFBT]

We love Joseph H. - talented gentleman!! You'll be an amazing asset to the tour! Continue to love Jesus foremost, stay convictuous, and enjoy your youth. 🙏🙏😘

[@DebbieDStripling]

I so glad Katie will be with family while you are traveling! I’m so happy for you Travis. I hate to see y’all apart from each other. Can you not get a trailer or fifth wheel so all four of you can be together after the baby is born? How about a tour bus? One step at a time, right!

[@bonfer20]

❤ 'BIG ENOUGH' is one of my ultimate favorites. I have watched that video sooooo many times. I'm so excited about your new journey. God is so good.❤

[@cfigs126]

So happy for you just keep living out your faith and putting the Lord first and you'll never go wrong. God bless your family❤

[@carolgrueneich1799]

Katie, would you ever do some songs with Travis on an album? I know you sing because I saw you and your family on your show singing at Dollywood. Love you all praying you have a wonderful pregnancy. Hailey will be a great big sister she is so precious. Keep giving all the glory to God. You all are truly blessed 🙏🏼💖

[@heatherkerns552]

That would be beautiful husband an wife singing together ❤️

[@mariaruth2763]

I’ve never heard of Joseph Habedank didn’t even know how to spell his name, but I saw somebody spell his name in the comments so I checked him out and I love the song. Tell the devil ,boy that’s a great song

[@tinarenee6179]

I love his song, The Beauty of the Blood. It’s one of my favorites by him.

[@cynthiarollins3949]

Oh my goodness-Joseph Habedank one of my all time favorite artists. His testimony is beyond wonderful. I have been to his concert. So happy for you Travis- that baby driving that bumper car is beyond cute💞

[@Cherokeefit]

You are truly blessed! You have great parents, mentors on both sides ❤ 👏 🙌 beautiful family! Hold to God's unchanging hand 😊

[@annetuttle7712]

I am SO excited for you. It is SO amazing watching God open doors and to have faith to walk each step. Travis said in the first move video (I think it was) that moving would open up some opportunities in Nashville! God is blessing you for sure!! My question is....did Katie get her car and is it brand new?

[@Cherokeefit]

Very cool! I do like his voice a lot! (Habendank) such a blessing to know and see your in the Lords will ❤

[@rosemaryroutte7379]

Congratulations Travis! So glad Katie is living near her family. Love Hailey’s new toy bumper car. She looks so cute playing in it.

[@nicolegordon129]

That car is the cutest thing!!! I’m glad that you all are getting adjusted and that Katie is feeling better. Safe travelling mercies on your tours Travis. Safe, healthy, happy pregnancy, labor, delivery, and recovery for you Katie!

[@carlavision6143]

Travis, congratulations on your dream of going on tour! Really enjoyed your video and Hailey looked like she was having a blast in her bumper car. She's absolutely adorable and so precious!💖 Katie, that one was cool that reclines . Love y'all and you're always in my prayers!❤️ And God Bless You and thank you for being a blessing to others!❤️

[@theresadavis4885]

Congratulations Travis’s!!! What an awesome opportunity for you!!! You will do great!!!!

[@thomasandamandaphillips6307]

WooHoo! Love Joseph Habedank! Beauty of the Blood is one of my favorites

[@anaychaker7344]

Glad Katie is feeling well on baby # 2 ! 🤍 Congrats , Trav !!🎉🎉🎵🎶🎶🎶🎶 🎉 So happy to see GiGi & Pop with Hailey!🤗 🤍🤍🤍 Glad y’all are near Carlin & Evan and the fam ! 🤍

[@TerriSpringer]

Congratulations on the tour. I love it when dreams come true.

[@GapGirl.16]

Zach and Whitney are always helping someone in the family! ❤

[@miriamrodriguez6892]

PleAse check on how they handle on accident impact reports for each car

[@sheilajones3055]

It’s my experience that when God moves he moves quickly , and that song came across to me not long ago and it really spoke to me because while I had cancer surgery and I’m cancer free I have still side effects and symptoms from the surgery , but I know in God’s time that he is going to help me all the way. And I have waited for things in my life and God is always faithful but on his time. I appreciate your ministry so much. Ive sang and led worship for 30 some years, and I’ll be covering you in prayer as you go fourth. God is always in the details and he will watch over those that you love.

[@User79344]

Congratulations, Travis! So excited for y’all…the Lord is opening doors! ❤❤

[@garyandbeverlyneeble2028]

She’s so cute on that new ride! ❤ Congratulations on your news, Travis, and may the Lord bless you abundantly. So glad Katie’s feeling better. As always, love the vlog. ❤

[@wendysaggus7058]

katie- be careful with the cashews. since you have already had a kidney stone, a lot of nuts can cause you to have them. my last one was caused by pralined cashews. i had kidney stones before and after pregnancy, about 15, since 2009.

[@janetrucker1962]

Wow, that’s going to be an awesome opportunity for you. Best of luck to you and your family on this exciting journey. May God bless you all!

[@SaltyJennC]

I have a 2024 palisade calligraphy. And I love it!!! The interior is insanely gorgeous. I’ve had it for like 6 months and haven’t been disappointed yet! I got the black with the light interior

[@marleneboothe9632]

As exciting as baby #2, new car etc...is going on summer tour with Joseph Habedank is AMAZING. He did a "Resurrection of Faith" tour with some good friends, the Erwins a few years ago. Such an amazing artist! And the song "The Church" on his new project is like my life testimony, for which I'm so thankful!! Congratulations on all the good news!

[@marleneboothe9632]

And, yes!! Katie and Hailey need to get on that bus for part of the tour!!

[@conniecravens6270]

Congratulations on all your family life changes & God bless you 😊💙❤️💗🙏

[@colleenhenvit7827]

Congratulations!! What wonderful news that you will touring and being mentored by someone you look up to. It is amazing what God does when we surrender our lives to Him and give glory to Him as we do His will for us. It has been so beautiful seeing how God is transforming your lives as you trust in His will for you. Thank you so much for sharing your lives so that we can see that; I know God is using that to open the hearts of many that are following you. Continued prayers for you all.

[@marsihopkins1995]

Congratulations Travis , Katie will have lots of help. Im always praying for everyone. Hailey smile and laugh is great.

[@loridill4683]

Travis, Katie that's so cool! Our pastor knows the Habendank family. Our church went to hear him sing. He's very good. I'm so happy for you Travis. God has blessed you both with wonderful voices.

[@debihurd9801]

The Palisade was one of our choices as well, but the Telluride won us over hands down!!! The Palisade was really nice too. 🚘🚙

[@nancymosley708]

That is so exciting for you all. Congratulations. I’m so happy Katie that you are feeling better this pregnancy. Those vehicles look so nice. That first one had so many cool features. Hailey brightens my day when your videos come out. And the bumper car is adorable. It’s so exciting to see a couple supportive of each other and your dreams. God bless.

[@roisegolden6459]

So happy for both of you and that everything is working out the way you prayed it would!

[@cgateley]

One more thing I truly love the song you dd with Mark, Chain Breaker. I love the more upbeat songs as it seems some artists do the slow almost sad music. I just like something a little more upbeat and this song was just beautiful not only in its message but it's tune. You know a song you can play in your car and praise the word.

[@drgnflylover0774]

🎉 CONGRATULATIONS🎉 So proud of you guys. God Bless

[@rethacharette7830]

Congratulations Travis. I hope you enjoy touring. Hailey is getting so big. I hope you find the car that you like. Have a wonderful evening. God Bless.

[@jeandelaney8080]

Congratulations! #FollowYourDreams! #DoingWhatYouLove #GodisGood 😊

[@AngelBluff]

Whoo Hoo!! Congrats Travis!! SO happy for you. Love Katie being so supportive. I vote Telluride. My sister bought a beautiful white one 2 yrs ago. She loves it! I've went on a few long trips with her. Really nice ride, comfy and spacious.

[@carlataylor1736]

Oh guys so excited for y'all.. Travis you are so ready and deserving h God's doing great and awesome things for y'all.. love y'all🎉

[@AmyintheMountains]

If that’s not the cutest thing I’ve ever seen!!! A baby bumper car!!! Hailey is already a pro at driving it. So adorable! Travis, congrats on your tour! I’ll have to look up the schedule and try to attend one of the concerts. Very exciting! I can’t wait to see what vehicle Katie chooses. It’s going to be nice no matter which one it is! So happy you are feeling better, Katie! 🩷💙

[@brickhouse2688]

If you haven't bought a SUV yet, test drive a Subaru Forester. They are five star on safety and LOTS of room.

[@ValentinaPW1]

Congratulations Travis!!! I KNOW GOD IS BIG ENOUGH!!!! ❤

[@AundrayaEnglehart-xr7mt]

God bless you Travis

[@cindidelaney4962]

I have owned a Kia for the past 10 years and love each of them. I currently have the Kia Sorento Plug in Hybrid and I absolutely love it. The Telluride is my dream car but for now I am happy with my Sorento. I use it all the time for family. Most days/weeks, I use hardly any gas. I normally get gas once every 3 weeks or so. I am still watching the video so I can’t wait to what you got….

[@rhondahigginbotham968]

Congratulations!Praying for your sweet family!🙏

[@LyndyWarwick]

So excited for y’all! May God continue to bless y’all 🙏🏻❤️👍🏼💕❤️💕❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@LindaDavis-gs6mu]

I’ve known Joseph’s in laws for many years. He’s so talented. His in laws are talented and you will love them as well! I’m so excited!! He’s such an inspiration to so many and his testimony is amazing!!!! Congratulations!!!

[@TeenagedChristian]

I was so excited to hear that 2 of my all time favorite singers were touring together! I have been listening to Joseph Habadank for a few years now and I am so excited to hopefully get to see you and him at some concerts!!! Praying all goes well!

[@janicemichaloski5292]

Travis you have a fantastic singing voice God bless you ,Katie ,Hailey& baby ❤🎉

[@MaryStiener]

So happy for you and your family, love Joseph Habedank and his music.

[@livelifewithpositivity3587]

Look at the new ford explore with bucket seats!!! 🚗🚙

[@lianet777]

You guys should buy a bus like a tour bus and make it like a tiny mobile house and travel. The country whenever travis wants to go make music. But after the baby is born, and Katie is feeling healed!

[@maribryan1778]

I love my Palisade!

[@dancieteague6854]

KIA have some issues and my daughter is insurance agency there score is not great right now and your insurance will be higher due to theif issues. So do in just like you said. Prayers and research is the right route to go.

[@savinggrace1110]

Praise God! I’m so proud of you Travis for your upcoming tour, that has got to be a dream. I swear when you loved the Lord, live by him and spread the word of God everything will come to the good from God. I had a feeling you had something big with music. All in Gods perfect timing. I pray he continues to bless you and use you all the way he sees fit. Katie your baby bump so beautiful! I’ll be back up babysitter I’m not far at all!! 😂 May the Lord bless you all and keep you safe as you travel spreading the word of God. I’ll be at UT cancer center next week and want to go to the boutique in that Saturday! I’m in the process of finding a home church and praying so hard God places us where we need to be. You all loving the Lord and sharing helps others more than you know.

[@deborahrussell5534]

Congratulations on all your big endeavors and of course on baby number two.. I wish you all the best of luck. It's great that you are paying attention to the signs that God is giving you. God Bless You All 🙏❤️

[@DebbieStanford-t8f]

Praying each week for baby # 2. I did the same thing when you all were pregnant with Haley. May the Lord use the talent He has given you Travis to glorify the Lord. Stay close to Him and humble as you are now. Give Him all the praise and glory! May the Lord help you all with all these adjustments. My 🙏Husband traveled in ministry when I was pregnant with our 1st baby and our 2nd.

[@lisasowards9740]

I grew up with Joseph Habedank at Cornerstone Baptist Church in Ohio. My daughter is almost 14 and is absolutely obsessed with your music and you and Katie!!! So excited that you are opening for him!!!!

[@LSJ497]

So so happy for you both. You have a gift that needs to be shared with the Lord being first and foremost. May God bless you thru this journey. I am currently in a rehab facility after a horrible fall in our garage on March 7th. Several broken bones and am just now able to text a little at a time. So your videos are a blessing. Prayers appreciated for my healing. Love to you all..Linda

[@joyparrish392]

I owned a palisade and now own the New Santa Fe! Love it even more than the Palisade!

[@Lisa-ne5pd]

Congratulations On your tour and baby. God Bless 🙏❣

[@melissablackstocks8651]

I am so excited for you guys. I absolutely loved Bringing up Bates, and I really enjoy seeing your family (siblings included) grow.

[@LanieJohnson-fc7jz]

So happy for your success Trav! You deserve it! Both of you!❤❤❤❤

[@nanigail395]

Such an exciting time in your lives❣️ So love how your faith in the Lord & His guidance & timing is such a priority ❤️🙏 You guys are precious & that Hailey….adorable 🥰

Congratulations on the new baby and Travis new adventures ❤

[@cardisgirl]

Congratulations Travis! I LOVE Joseph Habedank! I have a very good friend that co wrote “Here He Comes”! I am so excited for y’all! I sure hope y’all will be coming to Texas! I’d just love to see you two!

[@lindapawson3445]

It was sweet to see Haley with her grandparents ❤️

[@debbiekerr965]

We had Joseph at our church 2 years ago. Hopefully, we can hear you while you're on tour. We live south of Atlanta.

[@thepratherlife]

We love watching your videos. Your family is beautiful. Also, congrats on the awesome changes in your lives. God is good! !!

[@helengolightly9707]

WOW!! Such exciting news all around! Happy to see God opening those special doors for you guys! Congrats on baby #2 and on Travis' upcoming tours! You are such an exemplary family - giving hope to all! Dreams DO come true! Thanks for the update! Woot! Woot!😍😘

[@rosehunter8896]

[@angelacowperthwaite984]

[@mbz9057]

Travis, I hope your parents move to Tennessee and live by you both. They are so precious! So excited for the Lord opening this door for you. He has given you a beautiful voice Katie, you are so blessed to have such wonderful in-laws!❤️🙏🏼 congratulations for baby number two! I was very sick with each of my five children. The last two were the worst. The last one I lost 15 pounds in the first three months. So glad that you are feeling better, Katie!

[@jodeming5088]

Wishing you all of life’s best. Make as many memories as you can.

[@tracycanote8102]

I cannot wait to see your tour dates. Prayers for your growing family. God is guiding your steps and will strengthen your family when you are you able to be physically together.

[@yadiraizarraras9323]

We went with the Chevy Traverse and we loveee it!! Apparently its the biggest midsize SUV on the market and has the roomiest trunk with the 3rd row up!

[@tammiescott6577]

Travis I saw that you are doing music along with Joseph Habedank and I am a big fan of Joseph Habedank

[@suestephan3255]

Ah so happy for you Travis. I look at this and I see a man who means to honor God in his God given talent and God is honoring you, think of that God is honoring you! Stay the course. So many artists start that way and gradually veer away from giving honor to God. This is an exciting time for you Katie & Haley and the tiny one yet to see light. Katie’s face just beaming for you & this opportunity and that Hailey when she looked back in the mirror so cute. May God keep blessing the path you are on.

[@beverlysimons4551]

That’s awesome news! I’ve known Joesph for years and he is such great guy! You’re going to have such fun! Congratulations!!
