The scenes of the ranch are so beautiful and restful. Although I know it is a lot of work:) It has been a blessing to watch the progress! Great work! Praying always for your family and especially for your dad. He is a wonderful man of faith. Such an inspiration!

Hello Michelle!! How are you and your kiddos? Praying life is treating you well in Nairobi. Thank you for your prayers for my dad...he has the most amazing attitude and love and faith in Christ. He says his situation is a "win/win"...either live on to see his great-grandkids or go to Heaven to be with Jesus. He is my inspiration for how I want to live out the rest of my life 💝 Thank you for checking in and being such an amazing follower ❤❤❤

My thoughts & prayers are with you. It sure has been a very traumatic year fir your family. Love your Mother,s home the place you grew up in, a beautiful traumatic quilt space. Can understand why it's hard letting go. Windows now look so lovely & there is much to look forward to in the beautiful home you've built. Many memories to make.

Great work on your windows, cabin and yurt... you are so fortunate your family is all on board with living and working this way. My tribe refuses to live in anything but a "regular house" that is already finished... and it's killing me. I just can't live the "conventional" way any longer. I seek freedom from debt, utilities, regulations, noise, neighbors, etc. The only way to that, as you know, is to move out to the middle of nowhere, and live rustically while you build something more substantial out of pocket... My crew is in total opposition to that whole notion... so I appreciate your family working together as a team to get stuff done, and being willing to live somewhat rustically in the process. Great job on the homestead!

Welcome home Brooke, my thoughts and prayers have been with you on your travels. Gabe and Peter definitely put some work into the book shelf. I’m so glad you were able to repurpose it for the house. Your mom’s house looks INCREDIBLE, I’m sure that was very hard to say goodbye again. Sending hugs!!

Hi Denise! Yes, it was hard to say goodbye to my childhood home, but having the opportunity to work on our home is helping with the transition. I always appreciate your kind and supportive words ❤

MY FAVORITE VA KZbin FAMILY! 😁👍🏼 Brooke oh my Goodness Girl life has dealt you poo poo sandwich just like I was served 🥪 in 2016. 😢 In spring of 2016 One of my 2 sons Dustin and his Fiancé were killed in NC in a single car horrific accident. In which he crawled into the passenger seat and embarrassed her and the HP called me and said he found them with Dustin in the seat 💺 with her and his arms around her & both died in each other’s arms. Went to Heaven Together 😢💔 I just praise God He Was saved by the Lord Jesus Christ and ready to go! Then just 5 short months later I lost my Dad and had to bury him also! So Brooke I know what Grief and sorrow is and I’m so sympathetic for you about your mom & getting the news about your dad. Just from the introduction you gave about your dad..... I gather He seems like an amazing man who id feel really blessed if I ever got to meet him. He also seems like a man who has really laid down a legacy for his family and friends and all who knows him. His work for the lord seems to have produced good fruit on his tree 🌳 of life, which is what the Lord tells us to do ❤️ 😁👍🏼! The kind of man that all who have been fortunate enough to have met has walked away feeling blessed they met him, Things money cannot buy!!!! Just know that I’m praying 🙏🏼 for your Dad Brooke. Also I know you feel like you’ve lost a piece of you heart ❤️ Your life and childhood having to sell your Homeplace.... But what you have stored up in your mind and in your heart are priceless memories that can never be sold or replaced that your minds eye can take you back to as easy as just closing your eyes and thinking about a Happy by gone era. A house 🏡 a piece Of land is never truly owned, Like your mom, like you and Chuck and myself we may have a deed to our property.... But it’s never truly ours but we are only borrowing it from the Lord for a short time to be good stewards of it and then it will belong to someone else when we are all gone to an eternal home. We are also given an allotment of Time on earth by the time maker above God, and he watches what we do with that time. I just wanna say this and I’ll close.... To Brooke’s Dad... Sir it looks like you have used your time wisely for the Lord & Just know I’m praying the lord will heal you and let you live to 120 so you can continue spreading the Gospel of the Lord, you have my best regards! Brooke the Apple don’t fall too far from the tree 🍎🌳& I’m sure your dad is very proud of the woman you have became. It looks like U are also using your time wisely you and Chuck. You guys have done an awesome job with your kids and this Ranch is coming out amazing ! I remember when you 2 sit out in 2 chairs in the pasture when you first bought it and it was raw land and you guys done a Video with a vision, NOW LOOK AT THAT PLACE 👍🏼😁👍🏼!!!! God said with faith the size of a mustard seed you can move mountains 🏔 in the name of the lord! The lord knew you guys was gonna build this ranch for unfortunate kids to glorify his name so your little tiny mustard seed is moving mountains! 😉😁👍🏼🙏🏼 ✝️ I love you guys, your #1 Fan & friend. CC Rider

You are amazing! Thank you for your supportive, loving, faith based encouragement ❤️. I could read what you wrote over and over again. My heart breaks for your son Dustin and his fiancé. I can't even imagine how painful that was to lose your child. Your faith is an example of how the Lord can carry us through ANY challenge life brings us. I appreciate you sharing their story and love that he held her in his arms as they went to meet Jesus together 🥲...bittersweet. You are an awesome man and I have not doubt you would love hanging out with my dad. I pray the Lord keeps him here to continue spreading His joy and good news for years to come as well. He is a true inspiration whom has touched many lives. HUGE HUGS to you and well wished for Easter. He is risen!!
