You should really just be investors in the bakery at this point
Right 😆
😂😂😂😂 true hey
Too funny 😂😂😂
Wait, what they do-nut own it? 😂😂😂😂😂
I miss having a local bakery.
Unbelievable how you always just roll with the challenges and obstacles as they pop up unexpectedly. It's always a pleasure to watch your videos and watching your progress. Awesome family.❤
Three cheers to your neighbor for stepping in and helping with your delivery dilemma!!! Nothing can replace great neighbors, no matter where you live!
Great neighbor! A blessing!
Well, a neighbor in the country is more likely to have heavy equipment useful for such occasions.
Really like the way you two are able to adjust your plans on the fly. By the way Birds Nest with babies are a good luck omens for the future. Take some pictures and frame them for the new build walls. Maybe the wall going up the stairs to your new nest for the future of your children. Stay a little longer till your wings grow stronger.
That’s an excellent suggestion.
Gabby is coming along pretty quickly. Looking great! Isn't it funny how in our mind everything is easy, simple and fast? You guys are champs at overcoming all the little obstacles. Can't wait for next Saturday!
Thank you so much 💓
Very inspirational!!! 🤩
I thought someone would have told you, cut hay to make it RAIN, or pour concrete, to make it pour down RAIN. Jeremy knows how to deal with it, take a SHOWER, love it. Melissa and her birds, next thing with be an EAGLE in the addict. No matter what, your family just moves ahead and gets the job done. What a blessed life you have there. God is smiling on you.🙏🙏
❤️
Did Mama Robin sit on her nest during the nailing and sawing? I love that y’all allowed her to stay. It’ll be great shelter for her and the babies for a bit.
They'll pretty much stay on the nest through most anything, except if you walk near them. Then you will get DIVE BOMBED by mamma robin. But Mockingbirds are the worst for dive bomb attacks...one built a nest in the tree near the main door of my work place...for six to eight weeks all the employees had to use the rear loading dock door.
@@chris6833😁 yeah I’ve had a Blue Jay mama go into attack mode in my backyard. Thanks for the reply about mama Robin.
I loved the fact that even after the monsoon Eli still waters the veggies in his space suit!❤
I once saw a sign that said "We do these things not because they are easy.... but because we thought they would be easy!" LOL... Love seeing the confidence in Jeremy's building skills now. His skillset really has grown through the years on this channel. Have a great week. Stay safe.
I love that 😆
Wow, lots of things to think about and coordinate! Nice neighbors with useful equipment does help a lot. Even the space station sent someone to help water the garden. Enjoy the rain when it comes as a lot of people wishing they had it. Stay safe and let those burns heal. See you on Wed.❤
So true!
You have a very nice neighbour so rare these days. Glad you got rid of the wasp nests for Kyra, hope her arm is feeling better. Have a lovely week end.
That concrete apron will be the perfect surface for sidewalk chalk! Your kids will make amazing artwork on that over the years! 😀
Impressive and inspiring how you two take the unfortunate situations, like crazy rain on the new apron, and not let it bring you down but also to have fun with it and continue to smile.
When you were talking about your finger, my first thought was how amazing our bodies are to heal themselves! God provided us with everything we need and I'm so grateful! ❤
Amen 🙏
I simply adore the ever present playfulness of this family. Ya'll are such a joy to watch.
That intro...who would have ever thought watching a cement truck drive down the road could be so pleasing, but then again, it wasn't just any road. That landscape is incredible. I appreciate how y'all face challenges and continue to persevere. I hope you know how motivating y'all are. I really enjoy your youngest sons imagination. I wonder what it's like to be inside his head. Hope that quality never leaves him. Thanks for the video.
"Pressure has purpose if one only changes their perspective. You can allow it to either strengthen you or to crush you." Melissa, Jeremy, you are not only building physical structures, your comments also are building purposeful lives--your family's and your viewers. "Thank" you does not hold enough appreciation for all that you emulate.
Astounding! Grateful and Blessed by GSL!
❤️
That Robin is the luckiest girl ever! Her babies will be in good hands ❤
All is taking shape so great, love it!
Just love how you guys include the kids in the projects. Even with all the obstacles you've run into , you have a great attitude and outlook
With so many tasks happening almost at the same time, you achieved so much. Melissa scalding her hand and your son with a wasp sting, all very painful, you are in the wars.
Try to stay safe, love from Mike. ❤
Love watching Eli watering the garden. He is hyper focused and enjoying himself. 🥰🥰🥰
You all work so hard!! The videos are wonderful - you make it look almost like fun!! :) The garden looks so great - especially with the cute astronaut watering!!! The homestead is looking great! So exciting!!!❣
Jeremy under the water with no shirt acting like he's taking a shower brought back a memory of a picture. Back in 1957 or '56 (before I was born) my mom took a picture of my dad standing in a big wooden rain barrel (that my grandmother used for collecting water. She only had hand pumps in the house. She would use that barrel water for animals and plants). Anyway the picture of my dad is him standing in the rain barrel in his underwear with a scrub brush and soap. I love that picture. My mom said that my dad always found a way to make her and my grandma laugh. My dad was in the Marines (4 years) then signed up for the Air Force right after that (21 years and retired from it. He took the service seriously. But at home he was a family man and made us laugh. Jeremy
reminds me of him in that way. Serious about the job at hand but time for laughter and family. God bless you both and thank you for a beautiful memory.
❤️
Wow you guys are so productive and wise!!! Make me want to be young again!!! And the pastry looks good!!!!
I love you captured the spaceman watering the garden, priceless.
Melissa, I feel your pain,
I steam burned the back of all my fingers on my right hand one time. Ouch!
Another great video, you guys make my Saturday mornings (Wednesdays too).
The views alone from the apt Gabby is spectacular! Really beautiful! Melissa a hair clip just is a classy look on you. I hope your blisters heal with no scars and that darn wasp nest got what it gave. Dad n brother to her rescue!
So cool that you let Mama Robin stay. It is very late in the season for her to be laying her eggs, but so glad she has a safe place to raise her babies. I am a sucker too Melissa for all wildlife. Great to see the progress on Gabby and I love the new concrete pad. As for us, we are still dealing with some major forest fires, and we have been breathing smoke for the last 4 days non-stop. Our air quality is horrible and even dangerous for vulnerable people. My kingdom for an east wind! Hopefully the coming thunderstorms will help with the fires in the next few days. As always sending love from our acreage to yours. PS...Is your John Deere not capable of doing a 4000 lbs lift? I was hoping you could just run down with the tractor and bring your siding up yourselves? I am guessing the forks can't handle that kind of weight :/
Hi Melissa & Jeremy and family! When it rains it pours (literally). Apron pour, roofers then rain .. add delivery of the siding - OY!! It is a blessing that you have a wonderful neighbor who's willing to help whenever you ask. Hugs and prayers for a smooth week ahead and I hope your burn heals quickly. ❤ Love from PA! (Hi Kenji)
Thank you 😊
I love storms and the sound of thunder and rain…. 😂😂😂 you two are the best.. enjoying your bakery delights. I do battle with anxiety too, but I manage it, or try to, by talking myself through it. Be careful and keep it clean so you don’t get MRSA.
Boy oh boy that's crazy how much was going on this week. I am glad you two thought of getting most of the heavy stuff up there before you closed off that wall...It's going to save your backs and save a lot of headaches. Now that the roof is done you have plenty of room down stairs to keep your building materials out of the weather. It's coming along pretty fast and is looking great. You two ROCK.
" Gabby" is gonna have a Splendiferous view!!!!!
Chuggin along at an
attainable rate..n..
look!!!
Ya got er dun!!!!!!
Yay team!!!!!!
N thank goodness for generous neighbors!!!!?
👍🐺🧙♂️🦊🤙
I just have to say you guys are amazing, the way you handle each and every situation! Great job! I’m so thankful Melissa that you weren’t burnt any worse! Great progress, even with the obstacles! God bless you all, stay safe!❤❤❤🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Love the animal and nature shots. Good sky cam. Cement and a roof in the same day. That was quite some rain. Great progress.
🙌🌈👏 Where there's a will, there's a way...and you epitomize both the will and the way!!❤️ Your can do attitude, the determination to finish the task in front of you and your ability to "roll with the punches" is both refreshing and commendable👏👏👏❤️💚💛
Smell preferences are so individual, I love the smell of rain on concrete! The apron looks great. Dang rain, I knew I shouldn’t have used that word!! The roofers look like they are doing a great job. It’s pig stop not pit. Jeremy, you might need an intervention soon!
(Teasing).
You guys work so hard, I admire how well you adapt and make changes on the fly. Perspective is everything! I have great faith in you!
That smell is called petrichor ❤️
These guys are amazing and they don’t waste time!
Boy that fast moving storm was crazy! Laughed out loud at Jeremy’s outdoor shower…was the weather cool at the time? Those donuts looked delicious! This build is crazy busy! You guys are doing an awesome job, as usual!
Yes it was!
Good morning Family 🤗 Boy you've had a busy week 😵💫 I chuckle when you go to town & Jeremy wants the bakery shop☺️ Eli looks so cute in his space suit watering the garden 😍 have a safe & great week 🙏🇺🇲💖
While at the bakery I hope you picked up some of those gluten free goodies. 🧁🍪
Wishing you the best! I know how difficult it can be to see the light at the end of the tunnel, but you both have endured so much already. I am confident you both will be able to see your dreams fulfilled. After all the hard work you have put into your life's dream, you will endure! Love to you and your family.
Thank you so much!
Melissa, Jeremy I love your ginger cat. Please, please keep giving us glimpses of him/ her and of course Engie.
Gosh you guys have had a very busy week!! You take on monstrous projects with absolute confidence and most people would shy away from tasks like that!! I can only imagine the feeling of pride you must feel looking at all you’ve accomplished so far!! Thanks for being my Saturday brunch dates each week and now my Wednesday morning coffee date too!! I loved the podcast episode with Neveah❤️!! She’s so beautiful and the way you’ve raised her shines brightly!! I saw on her channel she got her license this week🎊!! I have no doubt her future will be nothing short of AMAZING!! I hold each of you dear to my heart and always in my prayers…🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻. See ya next week😊
It's amazing to me how much I enjoy this channel! I've delt with some difficult things recently and this channel has helped me tremendously to get through those unsavory times. Often I have expressed how you and your family have given hope. This was a very simple episode that is probably more powerful than you know! Rolling with the punches! I love it! Things in my life are going well and I am very grateful for it!
I love watching the ever development of Gabby! And seeing Mr Kenji is a blessing ❤
The universe never tells us if we did right or wrong. All we can do is follow our conscience hoping that what we say might be that simple act of kindness or comforting word may be enough for someone who desperately needed it. You don't do it for glory or a pat on the head. The universe never tells you, you just have to try....
I love how you solve the problems one at a time. You will get there, sometimes slow is not what you want, but what you get, but it always works out in the end. Happy to see you are still safe. Put aloe on that burn, will heal it fast. Looking forward to next week to see how far you have gotten. God Bless all of you. Love your new channel!!!
😅😃😃
God bless you 💓
JUST BE CAREFUL ALL THE TIME. I DON'T WANT YOU OR ANY OF YOU TO GET HURT. YOU GOT A LOT TO DO AND YOU ARE DOING AMAZING NOW WITH THIS PROJECT. KEEP GOING ON. GOOD TO HAVE A GOOD NEIGHBOR.
‘Gabby’ starting to come together quite nicely. I’m loving you guys at the minute, I look forward to Saturday 4pm every week. Keep doing what ya doing as it’s making me love the show more. Lots of love from the UK 🇬🇧😘😘😘😘
Great to see Manny is still helping y'all by just being cute. Our Roxie is just as helpful. Thanks for the video today. I needed this.
The smell of fresh concrete LOL. The smell of fresh cut grass much better. Your homestead is beautiful
I love how you two kid around.
Melissa takes his kidding so well. 😂 Love the progress that you guys have made.☺️
Sleepy fur babies, just chilling before the storm. No worries for you guys about calories..you definitely burn them off! Great progress on the homestead! Hugs from N.C..❤️
I'm so proud of yins!! One of the top best youtubers, and absolute favorite family to see on here, such positivity, and inspiration, yins are doing great!! Thank you for being able to make my days better with your videos❤
Yins? I've never heard that term before. Is that something common to your region?
Thank you so much!! 💓
Yins …my family is from Johnstown PA and that’s what we say…they are doing a fantastic job!!
@@davidanddawnw3589 Cool! Always like to learn new things.
Awesome concrete slab! Now I foresee a nice basketball 🏀 goal pole and backboard being installed along side of the slab. For the kids and family game time
😉😁👍🏼
Foarte frumoase toate filmuletele care le faceti ! Sunteti o familie frumoasa si harnica !! Salutari din Europa !!👍👍🙏🙏💐💐

30 DAYS IN THE GYM AFTER THE 🍩
Mellisa I must compliment you on your videos and especially your editing, Loved that Intro with the cement truck coming into the property, awesome 👍🏼 I thought. And the things you say at the End is priceless, amazing content, I always enjoy watching the build and always wait patiently for the next one. Many blessing's and love to your family. 🎉👍🏼 🙏🏼
Thank you so much! Blessings to you as well ❤️
Hallo from Rachel, it looks like magic how quickly the new build is coming along. But then I love how you incorporate the horses, garden work and of course the backery buys😂 and come rain come shine you find a way to go on, change the plan for the day. Teaches me a lot. So thank you and as always love from Switzerland 🇨🇭
I am excited and can’t wait till you get finished! Love Y’all! Love and Prayers Always
your build is looking so good. hope your hand is feeling better. jeremy happy he got his doughnuts lol. you two are so hard working and its paying off.
Nothing weighs more than a negative mindset. Wishing you strength and power with the siding, Gabby is looking beautiful already, undoubtedly she will stand in full glory next to your magnificent mountain lodge.
Make sure you make a way to remove the appliances when you have to replace them in the far future:) I very much enjoy watching you and all the things you do on your farm. Very enjoyable.
🤙🏼 I knew when I heard pit stop where you two was going. Made a big smile on my face. Have a blessed week ahead.
You all are such great workers. So glad I found this from almost the very beginning. Who will be living above the garage. Its as big as some homes❤
You have achieved so much and faced so many challenges and changes to your plans. Your last statement is so true. Thank you for sharing your story.
wow! now thats a pile of rain!
You are one of the few channels that i watch that has been helping get through things this last year. I have a rare cancer and after finding out it was growing ive been pretty much been going from clark fork to spokane once a week since November. Finally had radiation end of may. Thought things were settling down i went out and threw in a garden.i was doing ok. On the 13th i went to check blueberries before heading to work but never made it. I tripped going out the front door 🚪 and broke my hip and my tibia plateau . Been in the hospital ever since. .there is so much going on and im trying to figure it out on my own so thanks making me smile just a little
That is so much that you are being faced with, and I hope day by day you are on the road to healing. Prayers for you as you gain back your strength ❤️
❤❤Thank you for the quick outdoor shower scene. Did wonders to improve the day of this old gal from Des Moines Washington ❤ I so love watching your family grow and the love you all share. Thank you
😆 🤣 😂
Your words of WISDOM are always so DYNAMIC!!!. Once again tears of joy for all your progress. It's so exciting to watch guys. BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY 💕🙏💕
Thank you so much!
As time goes by you both continue to amaze me! How you overcome the problems that occur during your home build and how you keep smiles on your faces is an inspiration to us all! 👍👍
Thank you so much 💓 💗
Ohh crap, the concrete, at least you had enough help to cover it. It’s really looking good! I have robins that build their nests in a corner on my porch. I love watching them, but it makes it hard to use my front porch 😂but it’s only for a couple weeks. Use a couple slices (1/8”)of raw potato to put on your burn, my grandma swore by it, it worked for my mom when she scaled her hand, I used it for different times for myself and my daughter has used it to. Thank God for your wonderful neighbors!
It’s looking good. That Nail gun is worth it’s weight in gold. In my day you had to do all that hammering by hand. You make it look so easy lol.
Another inspirational video and powerful thoughts at the end. Love and Prayers as always.
Thank you so much!
I JUST LOVE U GUYS SOOOO MUCH , YOU MAKE MY SATURDAY MORNINGS SO MUCH FUN AND NOW U GUYS R ON WEDNESDAYS TOO ALL THE MORE BETTER 😊😊😊❤❤❤
You have fantastic neighbors!!
GUYS! YOU ROCK!! 💪👌💜
enjoying uncut too! 😊💜
I look forward for Saturday’s, I really enjoy all of your videos!!!! Gabby is coming along so nicely!!! I thought it was funny when Jeremy scared you when loading the lumber up. You guys are such a happy couple and family!!!!
I do believe after watching y’all for 2 or more years, my husband and I could build that front porch I want and another full bath. All we need to do is go reference your videos. My Saturday fix now!!!
Oh and we are both 69 years young. Lol
That is awesome!
Another Great Video ! ! Couldn’t believe the scrambling when the rain hit on the New Concrete ! You All Got Showers for sure… That was to bad about your delivery ! Sure is a Blessing having a Great Neighbor 🙏 things are looking good ! Thanks for sharing this video 🙏 and looking forward to seeing next Saturdays ! ! Remember to be careful and safe out there ! ! And God Bless You All 🙏🙏❤️🙏🙏✝️
Thanks 👍God bless
Y'all are gettin it done. That's the important part. Slow and steady wins the race.
Having the roof on helps with working on the inside of your room. I enjoy watching you.
Thank you so much for being an inspiration for me! You have said many times that you guys are just everyday people. Yes. That's true. The difference is your ability to dream big, follow through, put up with sacrifices, and willing to work to your limits never giving up. You are more than everyday people. I hope you will come to know that by your actions, you are influencing great numbers of people through your videos. Good Luck with everything this week!! God Bless!
You're very kind ❤️
When someone says that to me, I always say it's easy to be kind to people who are good and you love, the hard part is treating everyone the same who are harder to love! Just because you say I am kind, does not negate what I said because it is true!
Gabby is looking so good - i just wish i had half of the energy you2 have - have a great week - love ya all more !!!
❤️
Obstacles wowzers. U can do it. Jeremy I would of done the same. When it pours. I would be playing in it. Enjoy. New projects. New adventures. Take care stay safe
Greetings from Germany,
i have been following your path and projects for quite a while.
For me it is another world where you live. A dream place with a great family.
Thank you very much!
Watering the garden 👏👏👏🍅🌻🌽
What a great neighbor. Probably a big 'ol bbque coming up for him soon!
Amazing! I love your videos! Your joy of life, love for your family and care for all living creatures is so infectious!! Your life, that you so kindly share with us, makes me laugh, learn and on occasion cry. Thank you so much!!
Thank you so much!
Great neighbors to help and roofers help with the plastic!
You got that right! It's so awesome to have a great community
l cannot say l ever stopped to smell the concrete but l do love the smell of freshly cut grass.
Thanks for telling us about better health 😊
Thank God for good nabores
Thank you to your neighbor for helping out, that semi delivery driver should find another line of work..😮 The storm came up quick, but I'm not sure why ya'll hurried to cover the apron at that point, water helps cure the concrete much better. Love ya'll ❤😊
What would be amazing for the two young ones is if you turned those 6 crates into one amazing playhouse. Is that a brilliant idea or what. You are an amazing family such love and togetherness, coming from a broken family and marriage your family is heart warming to watch. 💕 Brisbane,Australia
We have to return then
Oh bummer
Wow! Great job you guys! Blessings 💕🤗
how compassionate you both are!
Loved the video - the shots of the pets, in particular! 😊
It is AWESOME how you all roll with the punches! May the rest of the build go really ssssssmmmmmmoooootttthhhhhh!!! I can't wait to see the next video!
Thank you 😊
1:28 Totally agree. Sometimes I think I might have been a construction worker in a past life. I pretty much love the smell of almost all things construction. Concrete, spackle, paint, wood, even fresh asphalt.
