Plant Christmas trees on that slope. It takes 12 years to get to 6ft so wouldnt obstruct your view. The roots hold the mountainside/hillsides together which prevent land slips / landslides. Planting bushes would do it too but if you planted a Christmas tree every year you can chop one down each year. Also create log piles for mushroom production, hugelculture grow beds, seasoned dry fire wood.
The growth rate is not uniform! It varies from site to site based on the amount of rainfall, sunlight exposure, quality of the soil, and tree species. In the forest service, we used a parameter known as "site index" which is the number of feet height a tree grows in 50 years.
@@markbaier4421 there have been loads around the world. I wouldnt want it to happen to anyone, this family has worked so hard to build their own home and are good people.... check out zaytuna farm recent video about 100yr water flooding event and you can see how root systems prevent land erosion and slippage even under such extremes.
@@601salsa Yes, that is exactly what I was thinking when Jeremy was cutting down those big evergreens. Erosion, erosion, erosion. Especially in that mountain area, they are living. I'm one who gets upset when a perfectly healthy tree gets cut down.
Mu sister and brother in law have a very similar view in the Rockies of British Columbia. My BIL would sit in the evenings and stare at the mountains. I foolishly asked him one time..." Don't you get bored of the same view every single day?" He said nope...it is never the same view twice. Now when I am older I appreciate what they ( and you) have.
Are there any updates or stories about children or families that we all helped at Christmas? How is the UPS driver's baby? Do you have a photo? That is so cute how your 2 youngest children are best friends!
Remember that trees hold the soil in place, stops soil erosion, so if you don’t want your hillside to crumble don’t take down too many, evergreens make the best firewood so don’t burn them up unless they have pond beetles👍🚫🪚🚫🌲🌲🌲
Such a good perfect beautiful job you guys Are building something that a lot of people Dream of keep up the good work it is looking amazing and the scenery is absolutely gorgeous love what you’re doing Your house is going to be a masterpiece thanks for sharing your journey
Its just incredible what you have accomplished this last year. You're an inspiration as a family and such a happy one at that!!!!!!!! Your choices are yours and great ones! You guys ROCK!!!!!
Good afternoon. I want to thank you both because I am not feeling well today but both of you have made my day so much better with your dancing and singing...it's hard work but yall do it with such grace and humbleness, joy and fun. I thank God for you Melissa and your family by bringing me joy. Enjoy the rest of your day. Peace and blessings😊💕🌻
The mountains are beautiful.. I don’t think I’d ever get tired of such a view to look at everyday.. I don’t know about so much snow, but, even that’s beautiful to see ..
The stone is beautiful but I hope you do something else behind the stove top. Accidental slops happen no matter how careful one is, that's life. That stone would be so hard to clean off.
Happy to see your son participating more in the build. Great time to make special memories with him and teach him so many life-long skills! Gosh, when I was 12 I was taking care of our yard, mowing etc. making breakfrest for my younger sisters, well almost everything that needed to be done because my dad was on a Navy ship and my mom worked 4 or 5pm to around 1 to 2am and slept during the day. So glad the birthdays were fun!
Funny I worked with my dad in his cabinet shop. At first My tasks were sweeping and sanding for months. He said he gave me those tasks because he hated them😆 I said boy its good to be king 😎. Im thinking now that hes gone I learned everything about business and woodworking from him. So thankful he made me sweep and sand.
Yes… The Fact that you and Jeremy have taken on this Amazing Intimidating Adventure is so inspiring!!!! I have so fallen in Love with your Family!!!!! Thank you so much for Sharing this Adventure with Us!!!!!
Looking good. Yummy snacks. My daughter just got back today from vacation in Hawaii where she grew up and brought back snacks she enjoyed as a kid. Brought me several plumeria branches to grow. When my other daughter saw pictures of her wearing a lei she said it triggered the smells she remembered. Always love seeing your mountains in the background in the videos. Thanks.
You are living my dream! If I lived there I don't believe the TV would ever come on. I would be sitting under the front gazing out to the sky, the mountains, the kids playing the animals. Maybe another time. So very envious
We know just how you feel about living your dream. 26 yrs ago we moved into a tiny house and over the years we have made it into our “dream”! We have added on a large addition, a barn, an inground pool and so many other things, turning a small vacation home on 8+ acres into our dream home ( still incomplete ). We were much older than you when we started (in our mid to early 50s) and the process has been hard on our aging bodies but we have loved the process! Finding a place that you feel is your dream is something most people never experience and we are grateful that we found ours, as I’m sure you feel about your homestead there in Idaho. Enjoy the process and hopefully you and your family will have years and years of enjoyment. So proud of you and all the accomplishments you have made on your “dream” home! Love watching you fulfill your dreams and look forward to seeing it completed!!! You are an awesome family! 👍👍
You guys picked a beautiful place to make a home for a family. It is a blessing to be surrounded by God's artistry on full display. The home, the barn, the trees, the wildlife, and the mountains. It's beautiful.
I can understand why framing that beautiful view with a beautiful wall would be a priority, even on screen it's breathtaking. It wont be long and we will be watching kitchens and bathrooms go up. I must admit the sneaky top lookout above that amazing pantry is the one I'm looking forward to seeing finished.
I just always, always love the music you choose for the videos. Awesome. I do agree with Surmulerum about using the stones as a backsplash in the kitchen. They are awesome and beautiful. Cleaning them after cooking might become a nightmare. Bless you, guys.
I love the relationship you two have with one another. I love your thought provoking messages at the end of your videos & the whole build, hard work, knowledge gaining experience of it all. Thank you for sharing your life with us. ♥️♥️♥️
Ok. The look on Jeremy's face at 1:22 was priceless (in response to Melissa's commentary about getting the dry wall up). These two are hysterical at times. Always fun to watch them work.
I love the mountains as well. On a cold snowing day I could sit all day God creations are such gift to all of us. You have a great family and God will keep on blessing you all. I can't wait for you next video.
This home is going to be so beautiful. Love the stone. Do talk to someone about if you need to mud the drywall though and put up a barrier over it in case there would be a moisture issue behind it as that can be common with it on an exterior wall in winter. You don't want mold behind it and I would highly recommend a smoother backspash for cleaning purposes. The colors of the stone are perfection with the mountain view and the floor. Can't wait to see it finished. How stunning.
I was thinking the same regarding backsplash. The stone is beautiful but would be very difficult to clean splatters and grease off of the rough uneven surface. But they may have something planned to take care of that and we just haven't seen it yet. I actually have uneven stone tiles on my counter tops (already there when we purchased) that will be replaced ASAP. It is horrible to get things out of cracks and crevices.
Such a beautiful day and a great day to to cut some trees 🪓 🌲 I'm excited to see the stone feature in the loft, that is going to look so incredible! Happy Saturday to you all and much love your way 🌻 💐 🌹 🌷 🌻
Love your content and that you incorporate your animals in them. Especially the old man doggy. And, That Jeremy is a great singer and you both can dance. Wish it was possible to have 7 videos a week. Lol.
Hi guys. Everything IS coming together quickly for sure! Seems just like yesterday when you started your homestead. Wow it's going to be so beautiful. Jeremy doing the Tom Jones drywall song and dance was helarious 😂 We love you guys! Well done 👍. 🤠🧑🦰🌲 🎼
Your front wall will look beautiful in contrast with the mountains the every little you do will be picturesque giving your land that Suza touch that gives off warm welcoming energy we did the same our outer & interior decore is different oak timbers to accent the oak orchard behind our home we appreciate all your doing expressing yourselves with your home that's what we good folk do 🏡😉🤙
Watching the amazing progress you are making on your home 🏡 just loving your videos and the beautiful environment surrounded by nature. Fantastic guys 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
It's looking great! Have you thought about purchasing a wood chipper? It would save the CO2 from the environment caused by smoke (one might not matter, but it's the accumulative effect of a lot of people doing it), and the chips could be used as mulch or as garden-path covering, so it's a win-win - using the resources to their fullest... just a thought.
I thank your family for being my escape from the negative vibes of Portland. Bet you all didn't think how many folks enjoy the positivity you send out to us. And you being from the NW is really awesome. My prayers are with all of you
Actually going to be both a happy and sad day when the dream house is finished. Happy because we anticipate it being beautiful. Sad because it has been fun watching the build and even though you may go on to other projects, we will miss this one.
Your family is " the real deal" . Love, laughter, cuddles and hugs, hard work and lifes lessons all rolled into a beautiful video. I enjoy you all so much. 💕
To think most of the work on this house build was done by the two of you is PHENOMENAL💪!! Such a daunting, terrifying task to take on but you’ve accepted and completed the challenge like pros!! What an achievement!!! The way you’ve brought us along for this process is so inspiring. You are living proof that anything is possible if you’re willing to put in the work!! Your attention to these final details is spot on… it won’t be long until you’re ready to move in❤️ Watching the two of you work together is amazing….Your love as a family shines through it all. It’s heartwarming to see that family values still exist….❤️
I’m so excited as you traverse the many choices for your interior designs while learning at the same time. I agree there’s is nothing more satisfying than learning, adjusting until you get the aaaahhhhh, YES. Amazing work family. By the way, what did you decide to do with the outside trusses sinking. I was thinking you’re probably waiting for the ground to warm up to fix them.
You have a million dollar view. The only thing I would have done different is to put the barn to the right side of your house in between the garden area and the chicken coop and the garden where the barn is currently. That way nothing would obstruct any part of those beautiful mountains. Love watching y’all work and play as a family.
I am surprised that you are considering those stones as a backsplash in the kitchen. Though they are beautiful and match the front wall, I am worried that you might regret having something not easily wipeable as a backsplash! I can imagine how greasy those stones could become over time. Just a thought 😊 Other than that, I absolutely love what you do and the materials that you choose. Looking forward to following the rest of your build.
@@GoodSimpleLiving I work for a tile and stone importer as a design consultant. Sealer isn’t going to make cleaning easier. It just keeps stone and other porous materials from staining. It is the rough/ uneven surface of the stone that is going to make cleaning more difficult because food and dust will get stuck on the uneven surfaces. Yes it will be beautiful but I would highly suggest something with a smooth surface to make cleaning easy.
I’d suggest a smoother surface for behind the stove area! I am aware that the sealer is sold, but that may not work. Maybe buy a few pieces and put it behind the stove for a month and try it?
Kool, Jeremy! 😎 I once directed a tree-cutting party from the roof deck of a screened porch. When my tree cutters were finished, I urged them to come up and see what we’d done. Instead of some scrub trees, which had been the view from deck, we had created a magnificent view of the Shenandoah Mountains!
You guys are so driven with such a beautiful home, I just always wonder what will be the next project after the home is built. I can tell you guys like to stay busy, so a barn maybe?? Your family is so beautiful and I enjoy watching you and your hubby’s bond!! It’s really refreshing to see such a rock solid family and you can tell the love between you both and the kids, it’s just so beautiful!!! 🥰
Y'all are amazing! You not only practice doing the right things in raising up children at different stages of life but you show (teach) others how to do it right! Like your rock framing idea!ps turn the vacuum on for cleaning.🙃
Just thinking about how cleanable those stones will be as a backsplash? Love the colors! I am kitting out my van for camping and Those are the colors I choose.
It's unbevable how removed you homestead looks from the rest of the world. So much natural beauty, the mountains and trees dominate, what more could anyone want. YES it is a blessing for sure to have found that place.I love the idea of a stone wall look to frame the mountains, SUCH A CLEVER IDEA.! I can't wait to see it go up. Thanks for sharing your dream. Much love from OREGON Annmarie
Love yall I try my best not to miss any of yall episodes you both makes my day and put a smile on my face keep doing what you both are doing..yall are the best and house is coming along beautiful. You both have a lovely beautiful family God blessed all...
La maison de vos rêves avance à grand pas, félicitation. C'est un plaisir de vous suivre, car vous êtes tous au temps que l'autre de merveilleuses personnes, je vous admire. Bon courage et garder cette superbe humeur et d'esprit de famille et d'amour ! A bientôt, un papy de France Bordeaux. Merci pour tout !
Love the stone you guys picked. You have very good taste. All your colours are spot on. Enjoy your videos and your family. Your kids are wonderful people thanks to Mom and Dad. Take care. 🇨🇦
Well done guys. It’s looking so good. You guys are almost done with the inside. It’s going quick now. What dress did Nev… choose in the end? Has she gone to the dance yet?
Always thankful for another video from you guys. I love the way you plan things ahead. You sure you can manage your kitchen area clean up with the fake stones though ? Just a thought. Stay safe in your little piece of Heaven
You could use all of those felled trees to put up a wash rack/tack up area for the horses. That’s what we did when we cleared. We also built a pergola out of the thicker trunks. Looking great!!

I would plant something on that hillside to keep it from sliding
Great advice. Don’t want the land to shift.

You have the cutest most loving sheep I have ever seen.
I really liked that your kids clapped for Jeremy every time he cut down a tree.. it was so adorable!
Jeremy is clearing the kids Winter slide area kids are cheering him on..I'm so Happy I've kept watching your crazy journey to real freedom 💞👍
Oh my, won’t that be beautiful this winter!
The stone is beautiful but I hope you do something else behind the stove top. Accidental slops happen no matter how careful one is, that's life. That stone would be so hard to clean off.
Please keep sending me pictures of your mountains and family, the backdrop is ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL, you picked the right property
You have the best view in Idaho.❤️👍👍👍
Love watching you. Miss twice a week though. Could watch you every day. Never gets tiring.
Love how the kids claps for Dad after every tree....so cute

They make a sealer that make most cleanup pretty easy. The Sealer soaks into the surface of any pores surface and vanishes, but stops/limits staining.

It's been a fun journey being with you since you lived in Washington and seeing all you have accomplished!
We aren't uprooting them
@@GoodSimpleLiving Well, I should have known that by your video...lol Good to hear. :)
I love Melissa's "introspective thinkings" at the conclusion of each video. This one made me feel powerfully!
Love the stone you guys picked. You have very good taste. All your colours are spot on. Enjoy your videos and your family. Your kids are wonderful people thanks to Mom and Dad. Take care. 🇨🇦
I totally love the way you close every video, 👏👏👏
Well done guys. It’s looking so good. You guys are almost done with the inside. It’s going quick now.
What dress did Nev… choose in the end? Has she gone to the dance yet?
Next week, black
Photo hey!!! 🙏🏼
Always thankful for another video from you guys. I love the way you plan things ahead. You sure you can manage your kitchen area clean up with the fake stones though ? Just a thought. Stay safe in your little piece of Heaven
You have the most loving sheep I have ever seen!
**LOVE HOW ENTHUSIASTIC THE AUDIENCE IS!!!**
I’m not understanding why all the trees on the hillside needed to come down.
Fire break
@@GoodSimpleLiving Thank you for answering, that makes sense.
I actually searched for you because I was missing my dose of my favorite YT family! Here you are 38 mins later! Yippee!! Coffee and the fam! 😊👍🎉

Loving the colors of the stone and their contrast! Can’t wait to see it up on the walls! 💙💝💙💕💗💝💙
You could use all of those felled trees to put up a wash rack/tack up area for the horses. That’s what we did when we cleared. We also built a pergola out of the thicker trunks. Looking great!!
