The most wholesome Americana video I’ve ever seen. I think I gained 100 pounds just watching all the delicious food. The landscape is beyond beautiful and so peaceful looking. Thank you for always bringing class and modesty to UA-cam.
Exactly what I was going to say. If I ever get the opportunity to go to America I would love to visit this beautiful place. Thank you for showing us. It made my day and I could imagine being there instead of being in lockdown for the 6th time. 🥰🥰
Look at all that beautiful green grass and crops! I love how your families do weddings. Simple, people pitch in to help, modest clothing, etc. This was so refreshing to watch from CA where we have 100 degree heat and smoke. (I think your kids need a dog) Thanks for sharing this trip. Bless you all.
Interesting. I live in California and it rarely gets above 80 here. No smoke here either. Ohio gets hot in the summer. I avoid other parts of the country in the summer for that reason.
Lynette I love it when you show your trips up to see family the weddings are beautifully decorated. The people delightful. Hard working really lovely people. The farms and homes kept so beautifully. A wonderful place to have grown up however long you spent there. A really idyllic place to raise children. The shops you visit with the quilts and home decor. Oh no. I would spend far too much money there. The food?! What a treat. There's something missing from society today with all of the outside influences. Going back to a more simple life has to be a benefit. You are always so welcomed wherever you go. I know it's family but such a wonderful way to introduce children to extended family and the connections there. I find it very special. I think the boys are going to be asking for a puppy. The boys are growing up so fast. Your eldest looks so much like Nick. Oaklynn, such a little lady. Really has a kinship with animals. How was the trip home?
I'm a UK based Quilter and have always been impressed with Amish Quilts - especially the plain, darker coloured ones but I know that any and ALL quilts made by Amish or Mennonite ladies are superbly made and of the highest quality. So good to see that little quilt store in this video .... another gem among the many beautiful things to see in that area. I must add a visit there to my bucket list and hopefully bring back a quilt or two along with wonderful memories of a place and people. Hope you have/had a safe journey home.
It doesn't matter what I think of in this video. Whether it's the people, your family or the places you visited...everything can be summed up by 2 words!! ......SO BEAUTIFUL!! Thank you for sharing. God bless
My family and I thourghly enjoyed this vlog! We moved from Holmes County to Texas about 8 months ago and loved seeing our stomping grounds in the vlog. 🥰
I live in New Zealand and will most likely never get to visit these places I read about in Amish fiction. Thanks to videos like this however, I can say I’ve at least seen a glimpse of it. Thank you and God bless.
Never say never … especially these days, international air travel is reasonably priced. If you book well in advance and in the right (off) season … you can get a return flight for under 7-800 USD. Add in the travel once in the US, accommodation and food … you can do it on a budget, set a goal for the trip, write down the steps to get there, mark the milestones as you hit them and you could end up on a once in a lifetime trip all over Amish country and beyond! Best of luck to you, and God bless us all …
Oh Lyn, that dark, rich soil of Ohio…I miss the north. Been to Holmes Co. many times. This was a delightful walk down memory lane. Those quilts are beautiful! Be blessed.
I miss passing through to visit our son who lives in Bay Village, Ohio, on Lake Erie. We love Ohio. We live in Ormond Beach, Fl, but pass through the middle of Ohio on Interstate 77. Beautiful!
Oh my word Lynette!!! How the Lord has blessed you with such a large beautiful family! The countryside is amazing! Thank you for sharing your blessings.
Your American culture is so diverse and wonderful amd Amish coming out is a blessing to the rest of us. I hope to go one day. I can't help thinking of contrast with the madness of riots last summer and also glad no masks needed. God bless America.
That was so enjoyable, Lynette - thank you so much for taking us along - your family and community are delightful and I loved how the horse was just as happy as Larry to take everyone out for an evening jaunt. I have to say I'm amazed at how vibrant & thriving the Amish/Mennonite community is in that area of Ohio,everything looked so prosperous and everyone so content and cheerful. A real joy under the present circumstances. Should you ever be up the top end of the Mississippi, between Wisconsin & Minnesota there's a dear little town called Stockholm, WI with a store called Northern Oak Amish Furniture, that your Uncle would probably be interested in! It's been a while since we were there, but there was some lovely quality work and my Ma bought a beautiful handmade Amish quilt to take back to England which she still has on her bed - Happy days. Still miss the Heartland. Keep safe and sharing the Good Word. 🙏🐾🦘😊👍
The kids are so fortunate and blessed to be able to experience these things! I’ll always treasure the buggy rides with my grandpa but sadly my children never got to experience that.
I enjoyed watching this so much. I was so surprised to see you were in Aberdeen. 😲 You guys were so close to my neck of the woods. Once you cross over from Aberdeen into Kentucky, I'm only 30 minutes from there! My heart is full of joy to see families making it a priority to spend quality time together and sharing a piece of their childhood with their own children. May the Lord continue to bless you and your family.
Wow, I've never seen so many handmade quilts! And they're all so well made. I've never seen one in person. My great grandparents had a cattle farm in the country and we'd visit them every year until they passed away growing up. This video brought back so many fond memories. I wish I'd cherished my time with them more. Thank you so much for sharing your family trip.
Greetings from Spain, Lynette! What an absolutely gorgeous place Holmes County looks. Thank you for sharing a glimpse into your family and a special wedding. Blessing to you all, especially the new bride and groom. Hope you got home safely! Louise
Hi Lynette that’s one place I would love to go to Ohio Holmes County the scenery is beautiful everything is so well-kept the Grass the plants it’s such a clean place to live I’m at home right now I broke my foot but our anniversary is coming up November 8 and that’s where I wanna go so I’m gonna look at the description box and see all these places that I can plan to go the food looks delicious especially that steak with the grilled onions like always your videos are awesome can’t wait for the one next week your friend Kathy👍👍❤️👍👍👍👍❤️❤️
Glimpses of the bride and groom, the picture taking, all the children. Meaningful and enjoyable. Loved the cakes, the next morning for the religious gathering at the grandparents. The walk by the creek. Reminds me of growing up in Iowa in the Methodist religion, and lots of farm life spent at our grandparents and with the cousins on their farms.
The country looks so beautiful!!! I live in the desert and I'm swooning over all that green! Seeing so many generations of your family come together is so amazing! And showing your kids their roots. Loved this ❤ God bless
Love these vlogs so much! My husband and I love visiting Holmes county. So many great things to see. We live about 2.5-3 hours away so we try to go a few times a year for a long weekend
I enjoyed this video very much! “Ohio, the heart of it all” was a slogan for many years. Holmes County is beautiful and I hope to go there someday. Thanks for showing so many beautiful shops and restaurants. The horse and buggy ride looked like fun and your children will have fond memories of that for a long time. Glad the weather was really nice for your visit. I especially loved seeing the beautiful Ohio River at Ripley. My family and I went through that town many times over the years on our way to see our families in KY. Looking forward to your next video!
what a lovely family visit! When you asked your dad about memories it got me thinking about the courage your parents must've had for breaking away from such a strong tradition. I know you have given your testimony but I would sure love to hear their faith journey. Its such a personal experience though so totally understandable if they wouldn't want to publicly share their story.....and its not like you dont have content coming out your ears these days 😜😎 Thanks for another peacefilled socialmedia sesh.
Thank you again Lynette for taking us along to Ohio again! Brought back memories of my family visiting the Shakers in New Hamphire! My mom had a friend’s sister that grew up there! I plan to go next year when I go home to visit! My daughter-in-law’s mother sold Shaker furniture and herbs in Rhode Island! She was so surprised when I told her of my memories of them! So we will visit Canterbury Shaker Village in New Hampshire and Hancock Shaker Village in Hancock Massachusetts!
Lynette you have such a beautiful family .. your mom showing the quilts was amazing .. as iam a quilt collector .. lol .. safe travels sweet friend .. thank you for sharing your sweet family with us .. God bless be well!! 😊💕
Lynette I have so enjoyed watching your videos! I am so glad my sister Sarah told me about them. I have to exercise right now because I had valve replacement surgery so your videos really help me when I am on the bike to make the time go faster! And not only that it tells me how long I’ve been biking ! 😀 Walnut Creek cheese is my favorite place to stop and it is always a must stop when we go to Amish country!
So just over a year ago, I saw for the 1st time, the East Main Kitchen, in Baltic, in 1 of your videos. My husband and I couldn’t wait to go check this place out. By far the best ribeye we have ever had! I have since taken family there, and luncheons with the ladies. We have never been disappointed! The shrimp and grits are amazing! ( and I don’t even like grits!). Thank you for making us aware of this place!
When we lived in west Pa we would spend a lot of time in Holmes County & the area in general.I'm a quilter so trips to Charm for the quilt store were a delight to me, and my husband would always go to the big lumber store near Charm. Now we live in Sarasota County, Fl and only get back about once a year or so. Sadly, we don't always get over to Ohio. A stop at the walnut Creek cheese store is also a definite when we go there.
Thanks for the visit! Congrats to your cousin on her wedding. Omgosh the cakes for dessert looked luscious and the wedding cake itself was stunning!! I loved it when the puppies swamped Oaklynn. The buggy ride looked so fun too. That steak though! Yummo!
What a beautiful area. So much to see and do. The kids loved all the activities. I wish I could live there. So quiet and serene. You were one lucky girl to get to live there. Love your big family and all the love you share. I feel like I've been on vacation just watching this video.
I don't get to Holmes County often but it's my favorite area to wander. We LOVE golden retrievers! Those puppies are SO adorable. We've had 5 & would like another in the future. I'll have to remember to check with you when we're ready. (We're dealing with serious illness right now so that takes up all the energy!) Loved seeing all the family enjoying life on the farm!
Thank you all we love watching your videos! We live in Geurnsey County and are often throughout Holmes County and the Baltic area. Blessings to you and your family safe travels thank you so much for making these videos.
I love going to Holmes County when we go home to visit our family in Ohio I have always loved Amish way of life never lived it but I am absolutely love their way of life thank you so much for sharing and Walnut Creek products are awesome everybody needs to try them
I'm so happy I spotted your channel....grew up in Medina, OH and now also living in Florida....Oh how I do miss Holmes County...its always been my favorite Ohio memory...and so many of your favorites store are mine. Thanks for sharing Lynette
We camp in Berlin a few times a year. It’s getting harder to get a site as the popularity of doing so grows and I wish I knew of campgrounds maybe off the more popular areas…. I’ve been thinking recently of getting my craving for this beautiful area fulfilled and watching this vlog was awesome to see the areas you took us to….just seeing how it is to be close to such beautifully cared for homes etc was joyful….as a tourist you only see from the road…. The hitching of the horse for the buggy ride and being inside as it went about, the riding in the car down the roads that we so often just drive around and the s restaurants you visited was so nice……please do more videos as such. I don’t know how you could move from such a beautiful farm area and the family being near you…. I give your people credit for the patience they have to endure the disrespecting drivers that carelessly pass you on the roads…..and it amazes me the children alone on the roads especially now a days….what trust you have in the Lords protection of them… I come home each time disliking my farms lack of pristine care…wish I could have such beauty in my flower, gardens and fields…… The weddings were so beautiful and the flower arrangements ……the display of food and lol the dessert table at your sisters wedding was unbelievable….. Having a community you had here in Ohio must have been hard to leave…….Berlin and surrounding Amish towns definitely are like no other ones we have visited……oh how I wish I could live in that area…….thank you for the video and please do more of those when you come again….
This trip was so much fun!! I didn’t want it to end!! Your family home is beautiful!! I loved the shops and watching your children with the kitten and the puppies!! I hope we get to see the vanities when they’re installed. I really did enjoy everything!!🌺🙏😃🎚❤️
Lovely video of Holmes County! The kids are getting so big and Miss Oakland has the most beautiful eyes. I can't enough of those green fields, farm animals, and all the wholesomeness. The wedding was simple yet elegant. You have such a wonderful family!! Thank you for sharing this part of your life with us. Be blessed today, Lynette!!
The boy's faces in the back of the buggy..adorable. I think I would buy a doll for myself. Lol so sweet. I love it when you guys go to Ohio. Peaceful. Stay safe.
Lynette, you create some of the greatest videos, this one was fabulous, loved seeing the country, the people, the shops, so much fun ! Thank you.....I always enjoy you and your family.
I enjoyed this video so much. Great camera work. I felt like I was there ! Such a nice experience for the kids and for them to be able to walk around in that beautiful green grass. And the puppies !!!!
My Dad had a I believe a 1976 I want to say but rusty with my memory of the year of a red Pontiac convertible he LOVED it. Lots of good fun times we would be driving with the top down to the poconos and it would start to rain and he would say ur on a highway you won’t feel a drop lol we were drenched lol but that’s what made it fun. New subscriber. Loved seeing ur car brought back great memories 💖
Went on a field trip here in 5th grade for a week (I'm from Columbus) and I must say that experience is stuck in my head I'm now 30 yrs old that's how fun it was they showed us a great time
Love seeing the beautiful country, your family is precious. I enjoy watching your videos so much - especially this type. God bless you and your family!!
I love to see your videos of when you go back to Ohio. It's just so quaint and peaceful. When you live your life in the city it's nice to see serenity. Thank you for sharing your trip and your family
Lynette, you have no idea how much your video was appreciated by my husband and myself. The Holmes County area holds such a special place in our hearts. Since 1984 , We have been traveling there from our home in Erie, Pa. as often as we can, usually at least 4 times a year. Over all that time we have furnished our home with the beautiful furniture, curtains and linens etc. We always come home with so many favorite food items from all the different stores, especially Walnut Creek Foods. We have even purchased two puppies from the area for our grandchildren. We have not been able to go there the last two years, first year from quarantining because of Covid restrictions. We were so looking forward to this year and traveling back to there. But we have experienced several health problems since winter and it looks like we will not make it back again this year. Your video showed so many places and roads that we know so well, I got a little melancholy watching it but I loved every minute of it. That area is the most beautiful and peaceful place and we miss it so much. We can’t wait to get back there as soon as we are able to, thank you again 💞
I was sent here by Gini's Joint who knows i love Yoders shop. Have subscribed from rural Cyprus, as I enjoy seeing the Amish life, and would love to live that way.
I love going to "Amish country". I live in MI but grew up in Ohio....I recently took my mom to Holmes county for her birthday. We stayed at the Berlin Grande hotel and it was very nice! After all the rave reviews, we met my cousin at East Main kitchen for dinner, but they were short staffed, service was already slow before a large mennonnite family came in who all seemed to know the staff. They visited with our server a lot, so he kinda forgot about us. Unfortunate, since it was quite a drive and there are SO many other places to eat there. Otherwise, Holmes county Ohio is a gem I will forever love.
I love these slice-of-life videos! I always enjoy seeing your family and all the things you show us in Ohio. I watch with a smile on my face the entire time. :)
That was such an amazing video. I live in the Uk and I just love the scenery and the area you filmed. The stores look great to explore. Thank you for sharing this trip with us x
We use to live in Macon, Ohio and our children attended Russelville schools, this was in the late 1980's so a long time ago, but we enjoyed our time there, beautiful area.
That was wonderful. I loved seeing all your family members. What a great time. Thank you so much, it made my day. As always, I love to see you, Nick and your beautiful children.
We loved visiting the Amish areas when we vacationed in Ohio. We live in NY, so we drove. I would like to go again and visit some of the areas that you mentioned. Thank you for sharing 😀
This video made me homesick for Ohio. I lived in Springfield and my one, Grandmother Zook, lived in West Liberty and Grandmother Harshbarger lived in the country. They attended Oak Grove Mennonite Church south of West Liberty. Loved going to both of their houses. Enjoyed your video. I have visited Holmes County many years ago and wished I had known about those stores
What a beautiful place. Thanks for taking us along. Love all the family time. A lot of families don’t get together much anymore, so seeing all the family time was very refreshing. Also, the wonders of watching Oaklynn walking on the gravel barefooted brought lots of memories of when my kids did the same thing. You have such a wonderful family. Many Blessings!
Oh Lynette! Such a wonderful video! I could never leave if I lived there....so beautiful and peaceful.. You have such a wonderful, warm, loving family.. You are truly blessed.
Thank you so much for sharing your trip! I love visiting Holmes county and It was there i was inspired to learn to quilt! Before the pandemic i would visit my daughter in Columbus and we would go to Berlin and Sugarcreek and I really miss it. Can't wait to return and visit my favorite fabric store in Berlin!!!
Your wonderful videos are never too long. I lived every minute! It was nice to see your folks and I think your grandfather moving nicely with his walker! Holmes County, a little piece if heaven.
Thank you for the video. I grew up visiting Russellville Ohio area. My family is in Winchester/Sardinia area. We went to Keim family store in July. I really miss this area.
This was so awesome! Thank you for sharing with us - I was smiling the whole video! So precious… and now I have some super ideas of places to visit on Ohio♥️
Hi Lynette What a full video that was When I think of ‘Amish’ families I don’t imagine the fun you all have growing up The shops are amazing, I could have a ball and spend a fortune. You are both blessed with lovely passionate friendly and very close family ties. It’s heartwarming. Love the gentle giant of a horse also Safe journey home Love Kim x x
Dear Lynette.. This was so very beautiful! Loved your family..the beautiful scenery.. the wedding...stores..puppies.. little ones..and the delicious food!🌺 Thank you for all the hard work on this. It was so enjoyable.🌺 nancy
im new to your UA-cam page and i have to say my husband loves shopping at Amish stores but we moved to SC so not able to buy a lot of the food anymore , i just love the live y'all live , thank you for sharing
The most wholesome Americana video I’ve ever seen. I think I gained 100 pounds just watching all the delicious food. The landscape is beyond beautiful and so peaceful looking. Thank you for always bringing class and modesty to UA-cam.
AMEIN
Exactly what I was going to say. If I ever get the opportunity to go to America I would love to visit this beautiful place. Thank you for showing us. It made my day and I could imagine being there instead of being in lockdown for the 6th time. 🥰🥰
Amen! I love wholesome, class, and modesty.
Perfectly said!!❤️
@@janc9965 Are you a fellow Melburnian? And yes I agree, it would be a lovely place to visit.
Look at all that beautiful green grass and crops! I love how your families do weddings. Simple, people pitch in to help, modest clothing, etc. This was so refreshing to watch from CA where we have 100 degree heat and smoke. (I think your kids need a dog) Thanks for sharing this trip. Bless you all.
It gets a 100 here in Ohio too.
Interesting. I live in California and it rarely gets above 80 here. No smoke here either. Ohio gets hot in the summer. I avoid other parts of the country in the summer for that reason.
Lynette I love it when you show your trips up to see family the weddings are beautifully decorated. The people delightful. Hard working really lovely people. The farms and homes kept so beautifully. A wonderful place to have grown up however long you spent there. A really idyllic place to raise children. The shops you visit with the quilts and home decor. Oh no.

That's my kind of wedding -- more than one cake. 🤪 It was great to see your grandpa up and walking.
It was so good to see your grandfather up and walking around with the walker. I enjoyed this video so much.
It doesn't matter what I think of in this video. Whether it's the people, your family or the places you visited...everything can be summed up by 2 words!! ......SO BEAUTIFUL!! Thank you for sharing. God bless
Oh my goodness!! Those wedding florals are absolute perfection!
My family and I thourghly enjoyed this vlog! We moved from Holmes County to Texas about 8 months ago and loved seeing our stomping grounds in the vlog. 🥰
So much fun family time, loved the antique car, fishing, the animals, seeing the farm machinary.
I live in New Zealand and will most likely never get to visit these places I read about in Amish fiction. Thanks to videos like this however, I can say I’ve at least seen a glimpse of it. Thank you and God bless.

Just beautiful. It nice when families stay in the same home for many years, today people move every few years.
Oh my word Lynette!!! How the Lord has blessed you with such a large beautiful family! The countryside is amazing! Thank you for sharing your blessings.
I just love Amish life. Is similar like my town in Oaxaca Mexico
Your American culture is so diverse and wonderful amd Amish coming out is a blessing to the rest of us. I hope to go one day. I can't help thinking of contrast with the madness of riots last summer and also glad no masks needed.
God bless America.
Wonderful farm scenes and family get togethers, warms my heart to watch.
Your family has THE strongest family resemblance and it’s so sweet!
That was so enjoyable, Lynette - thank you so much for taking us along - your family and community are delightful and I loved how the horse was just as happy as Larry to take everyone out for an evening jaunt.

Best feel good UA-cam on the internet. Enjoyed the warmth and joy of such a beautiful family.
Wow, your family’s farms are so amazing! Never knew Ohio was so beautiful.
The kids are so fortunate and blessed to be able to experience these things! I’ll always treasure the buggy rides with my grandpa but sadly my children never got to experience that.
WOW... Heavenly beauty. Delicious food. Thank you so much for sharing with us.
Really expected you to leave with a puppy! Love how everything is so neat and clean! Thanks for the tour of this lovely area!
My childhood on a farm, so miss this kind of living, brought back so many beautiful memories! Thank you 😊 ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you again Lynette for taking us along to Ohio again!
Brought back memories of my family visiting the Shakers in New Hamphire!
My mom had a friend’s sister that grew up there!
I plan to go next year when I go home to visit!
My daughter-in-law’s mother sold Shaker furniture and herbs in Rhode Island!
She was so surprised when I told her of my memories of them!
So we will visit Canterbury Shaker Village in New Hampshire and Hancock Shaker Village in Hancock Massachusetts!
Lynette you have such a beautiful family .. your mom showing the quilts was amazing .. as iam a quilt collector .. lol .. safe travels sweet friend .. thank you for sharing your sweet family with us .. God bless be well!! 😊💕

Thank you all we love watching your videos! We live in Geurnsey County and are often throughout Holmes County and the Baltic area. Blessings to you and your family safe travels thank you so much for making these videos.
I love going to Holmes County when we go home to visit our family in Ohio I have always loved Amish way of life never lived it but I am absolutely love their way of life thank you so much for sharing and Walnut Creek products are awesome everybody needs to try them
What a fun time you all had! Thanks for taking us along!
I'm so happy I spotted your channel....grew up in Medina, OH and now also living in Florida....Oh how I do miss Holmes County...its always been my favorite Ohio memory...and so many of your favorites store are mine. Thanks for sharing Lynette
We camp in Berlin a few times a year. It’s getting harder to get a site as the popularity of doing so grows and I wish I knew of campgrounds maybe off the more popular areas….
I’ve been thinking recently of getting my craving for this beautiful area fulfilled and watching this vlog was awesome to see the areas you took us to….just seeing how it is to be close to such beautifully cared for homes etc was joyful….as a tourist you only see from the road….
The hitching of the horse for the buggy ride and being inside as it went about, the riding in the car down the roads that we so often just drive around and the s restaurants you visited was so nice……please do more videos as such.
I don’t know how you could move from such a beautiful farm area and the family being near you….
I give your people credit for the patience they have to endure the disrespecting drivers that carelessly pass you on the roads…..and it amazes me the children alone on the roads especially now a days….what trust you have in the Lords protection of them…
I come home each time disliking my farms lack of pristine care…wish I could have such beauty in my flower, gardens and fields……
The weddings were so beautiful and the flower arrangements ……the display of food and lol the dessert table at your sisters wedding was unbelievable…..
Having a community you had here in Ohio must have been hard to leave…….Berlin and surrounding Amish towns definitely are like no other ones we have visited……oh how I wish I could live in that area…….thank you for the video and please do more of those when you come again….
This trip was so much fun!! I didn’t want it to end!! Your family home is beautiful!! I loved the shops and watching your children with the kitten and the puppies!! I hope we get to see the vanities when they’re installed. I really did enjoy everything!!🌺🙏😃🎚❤️
Lovely video of Holmes County! The kids are getting so big and Miss Oakland has the most beautiful eyes. I can't enough of those green fields, farm animals, and all the wholesomeness. The wedding was simple yet elegant. You have such a wonderful family!! Thank you for sharing this part of your life with us. Be blessed today, Lynette!!
The boy's faces in the back of the buggy..adorable. I think I would buy a doll for myself. Lol so sweet. I love it when you guys go to Ohio. Peaceful. Stay safe.
Lynette, you create some of the greatest videos, this one was fabulous, loved seeing the country, the people, the shops, so much fun ! Thank you.....I always enjoy you and your family.
I enjoyed this video so much. Great camera work. I felt like I was there ! Such a nice experience for the kids and for them to be able to walk around in that beautiful green grass. And the puppies !!!!
My Dad had a I believe a 1976 I want to say but rusty with my memory of the year of a red Pontiac convertible he LOVED it. Lots of good fun times we would be driving with the top down to the poconos and it would start to rain and he would say ur on a highway you won’t feel a drop lol we were drenched lol but that’s what made it fun. New subscriber. Loved seeing ur car brought back great memories 💖
Went on a field trip here in 5th grade for a week (I'm from Columbus) and I must say that experience is stuck in my head I'm now 30 yrs old that's how fun it was they showed us a great time
Great to see you and your family busy with family time ❤️🙏
Love seeing the beautiful country, your family is precious. I enjoy watching your videos so much - especially this type. God bless you and your family!!
I love to see your videos of when you go back to Ohio. It's just so quaint and peaceful. When you live your life in the city it's nice to see serenity.
Thank you for sharing your trip and your family
Love it when you go back home for a visit. Those dolls and little bonnets were the cutest. Hope you had a good and safe trip home to Florida. Xx
Lynette, you have no idea how much your video was appreciated by my husband and myself. The Holmes County area holds such a special place in our hearts. Since 1984 , We have been traveling there from our home in Erie, Pa. as often as we can, usually at least 4 times a year. Over all that time we have furnished our home with the beautiful furniture, curtains and linens etc. We always come home with so many favorite food items from all the different stores, especially Walnut Creek Foods. We have even purchased two puppies from the area for our grandchildren. We have not been able to go there the last two years, first year from quarantining because of Covid restrictions. We were so looking forward to this year and traveling back to there. But we have experienced several health problems since winter and it looks like we will not make it back again this year. Your video showed so many places and roads that we know so well, I got a little melancholy watching it but I loved every minute of it. That area is the most beautiful and peaceful place and we miss it so much. We can’t wait to get back there as soon as we are able to, thank you again 💞
I was sent here by Gini's Joint who knows i love Yoders shop. Have subscribed from rural Cyprus, as I enjoy seeing the Amish life, and would love to live that way.
Such a relaxing place to visit!! The wedding was beautiful and the food looked delicious!!
I love going to "Amish country". I live in MI but grew up in Ohio....I recently took my mom to Holmes county for her birthday. We stayed at the Berlin Grande hotel and it was very nice! After all the rave reviews, we met my cousin at East Main kitchen for dinner, but they were short staffed, service was already slow before a large mennonnite family came in who all seemed to know the staff. They visited with our server a lot, so he kinda forgot about us. Unfortunate, since it was quite a drive and there are SO many other places to eat there. Otherwise, Holmes county Ohio is a gem I will forever love.
This was not too long it was wonderful! Loved the buggy ride the puppies and stories about family. Well done!
I love these slice-of-life videos! I always enjoy seeing your family and all the things you show us in Ohio. I watch with a smile on my face the entire time. :)
My husband and just went to Holmes County, how beautiful and restful. We celebrated our 27th Anniversary. Enjoy all your videos.
That was such an amazing video. I live in the Uk and I just love the scenery and the area you filmed. The stores look great to explore. Thank you for sharing this trip with us x
You are a talented filmmaker, Lynette! Your life is just beautiful…thank you for sharing it. 💗
We use to live in Macon, Ohio and our children attended Russelville schools, this was in the late 1980's so a long time ago, but we enjoyed our time there, beautiful area.
LOVED todays vlog!! On every level!! Excellent!!
That was wonderful. I loved seeing all your family members. What a great time. Thank you so much, it made my day. As always, I love to see you, Nick and your beautiful children.
We loved visiting the Amish areas when we vacationed in Ohio. We live in NY, so we drove. I would like to go again and visit some of the areas that you mentioned. Thank you for sharing 😀
First car I drove was a standard shift!!...thanks for taking me along, I've learned so much about your culture Lynette!!!
Oh, what a beautiful trip. I’m not all that far from Russellville. A perfect day trip for Walnut Creek food!
This video made me homesick for Ohio. I lived in Springfield and my one, Grandmother Zook, lived in West Liberty and Grandmother Harshbarger lived in the country. They attended Oak Grove Mennonite Church south of West Liberty. Loved going to both of their houses. Enjoyed your video. I have visited Holmes County many years ago and wished I had known about those stores
What a great trip! The kids look like they had a blast.
Such a beautiful place! Thank you for taking us along!👍💞🥰
Aww your children on the horse & buggy were so cute!!! Im still fairly new to Ohio,,,I have alot of places still to explore, thank you for sharing🤗
What a beautiful place. Thanks for taking us along. Love all the family time. A lot of families don’t get together much anymore, so seeing all the family time was very refreshing. Also, the wonders of watching Oaklynn walking on the gravel barefooted brought lots of memories of when my kids did the same thing. You have such a wonderful family. Many Blessings!
This was such a beautiful experience. Thank you for taking us along.
Thanks for taking us along, I love the country and farm life. We live in Wisconsin on a farm and feel so blessed to live here!
Now I am so hungry! Thanks for taking us on your trip.
What a wonderful video. Great to see the children out in the fresh air. A joyful, wholesome life.
Oh Lynette! Such a wonderful video! I could never leave if I lived there....so beautiful and peaceful.. You have such a wonderful, warm, loving family.. You are truly blessed.
Thank you so much for sharing your trip! I love visiting Holmes county and It was there i was inspired to learn to quilt! Before the pandemic i would visit my daughter in Columbus and we would go to Berlin and Sugarcreek and I really miss it. Can't wait to return and visit my favorite fabric store in Berlin!!!
Your wonderful videos are never too long. I lived every minute! It was nice to see your folks and I think your grandfather moving nicely with his walker! Holmes County, a little piece if heaven.
Thank you for the video. I grew up visiting Russellville Ohio area. My family is in Winchester/Sardinia area. We went to Keim family store in July. I really miss this area.
That was a wonderful video, I loved seeing how your family interacts with each other, it’s beautiful xxx
Loved this video.The scenery is beautiful and your family farm was breath taking.Really thought you'd be leaving with a puppy.That horse was huge!!
Nice visit with your families! Thank you.
This was so awesome! Thank you for sharing with us - I was smiling the whole video! So precious… and now I have some super ideas of places to visit on Ohio♥️
What a slice of heaven that is! You and your family are truly blessed. Loved seeing the scenery and the horse & buggy ride. Thank you.
We LOVE these videos! How could you ever leave? Just beautiful.
☺️ I was a little girl when we left HC. And we honestly love it in Florida
Hi Lynette
What a full video that was
When I think of ‘Amish’ families I don’t imagine the fun you all have growing up
The shops are amazing, I could have a ball and spend a fortune. You are both blessed with lovely passionate friendly and very close family ties. It’s heartwarming.
Love the gentle giant of a horse also
Safe journey home
Love Kim x x
I love when you have Ohio videos. All my favorite places to visit and why I love living here. Amish Country Donuts are the best!!
