    You are so gifted with your videos. The music is perfect, and I have always admired the freedom you give your kids to climb, and run, ride and work. So healthy.

    You got that right about children being healthier if exposed to country elements for the most part.

      Lexi had shoes on so complainers should be happy about that. I grew up on a farm in Australia and was barefoot most of the time. Somehow I'm still alive at 74.

    • @nancyfarkas3592
      @nancyfarkas3592 8 місяців тому

      Being barefoot is better as long as they don’t step on glass or things like that. Feet need to feel the ground

    What an absolutely gorgeous farm. I’ve always loved your home, including the wooden posts! But to see the whole farm is breathtaking. Happy Birthday to Xander! Lexi is beautiful and those expressions are priceless! You look great and I hope you feel like making many more videos and taking us along!

I'm so far behind in watching UA-cam videos and am trying to catch up a bit tonight. Xander is getting so big! He hardly looks like a little boy anymore. They grow up so fast! I pray God will continue to bless you and your dear family!🙏❤😊

    I’m not a designer in any way, but I think those wooden pillars are actually making your farmhouse more modern, but still looking like a farmhouse. Your property is gorgeous, so rich with history and freedom. You guys did a big favor to yourselves and your children by buying it. Thank you for sharing and your babies are growing fast 🙏🌸🌼🌺

    What a beautiful place you have! Loved the tour. Lexi is a quiet one compared to her big brother! That is probably a great trait to have. God does love silence. Love that she and the pup seem to have a great bond. I can't believe Xander is already SEVEN!!!! Happy Birthday, Xander! He is growing up way too fast. I am afraid I am going to tune into a video and see a teenager standing there. Looks like life is going well! God bless and have a great week.

Good job! Lexi and the eggs! It's too funny and sweet. The best 3 bucks you spent. I love your pillars, and they do match the house. It is a great idea to get a pergola for your fireplace area. That would be cool. Great interview, Xander. It would be cool if all of his birthday interviews were in one video as a refresh. That is a wonderful tradition to do birthday interviews. ❤

    I was just thinking about the barn- it would make an excellent wedding venue which could easily include your photography services?
    Love how creative, energetic, beautiful innovative and hard working you are and Nolan as well.

    Redbuds grow very quickly and are gorgeous in the spring. They don’t get huge but big enough to create shade and interest. My lot in my neighborhood is just under 1/2 an acre and I have several planted. Right now they’re at their peak with blossoms and are stunning. My neighbors comment every year how beautiful they are. Other great ones I have that grow quickly are cherry, dogwood, Teddy bear magnolias, Little Gem magnolias and saucer magnolias (Jane, Japanese, etc).

    It has always been a dream of mine to live on a farm but at age 64 I don’t think that will happen. My favourite drive is out in the country looking at farms and old stone houses. My parents were raised on farms and my dad always said cow manure made him homesick. He recently passed and I fondly get a smile on my face when I smell the “farm smells”
