    Oh my GOSH!!!! It's starting to look like a real house!!! We build our own house 26/25 yrs ago on our 17 acres and when I say we built it I mean we did A LOT of the work ourselves! Our Church came along side and helped A LOT!! We had already sold our other house and were staying a couple of weeks here and there over the Christmas holidays while friends where visiting family for Christmas. Jan 1 1999, we moved in .... no kitchen, 1 bathroom out of 41/2 finished, no floors down (sub floors down), no paint on the wall (just sheet rock) and had just gotten the heat in the week before! We have 3 children we homeschooled and they helped do electrical, plumbing, painting, flooring. WHAT an adventure and I would do it all over again!!! It is so worth it and I LOVE where we live and I pray someone in our family wants the house and property when that time comes. We are 75 and 73 and slowing down but still fighting!!! I can't wait to see the finished home!!!! I totally understand Rebekah's reaction and I cry with you!

      Why is it that healthier people tend to be the ones to get disease at an early age? most of the health nuts I've met had, have, or are at risk of having cancer. meanwhile, my grandpa ate like a pig and smoked like a chimney with no medical problems. there's something in these health stores that's killing people

    That's cool that you have found some actual military guys to light the boys up in Air Soft. I really like you liver trick of frozen liver flakes. So great. Those guys are great for doing the Air Soft with the boys. Go Army! That looked like a great lunch. That spaghetti looked wonderful for dinner. Liver flakes to the rescue. The remodel is really coming along! It was cute to see Rebekah so happy! Thanks for this video Rhodes family!

    We don't hide the liver, we eat it fried lightly in bacon fat with plenty of onions and my son loves it too. I took him a lunch of liver and onions to his job as a surprise and he was thrilled, at 39 he has always loved it! I guess we ate it growing up and it was always a favorite.

    I have trouble trying to balance it all just watching them. I truly don't know how they do it for real. it is exciting to watch the house really coming together and it was so sweet to see Rebekah crying over it. The liver trick sounds like a very good idea for those who simply can't eat it by itself. I gather at least Josiah and Lily are two of those who can't. I know the boys had a great time doing air soft battle with those two Army vets.

      it's a big part of why they have health outbreaks from time to time - stress from learning how to process/deal with a ever growing business, Bekah's mother's ALS diagnosis, their kids maturing/changing needs/interests and the development of the land itself.

    If you ever feel like everyone in your surroundings agrees on how to cook something but they don't all like the dish, that's when you look into different cultures to see what they do. It is often overlooked that the people in your surroundings are mostly of the same culture. If I was to look for how to cook organ meat or non standard cuts I would look at french cuisine irish cuisine lower latitude cuisine and polar latitude cuisine because they have experienced famine in the last century or so, which translates to relatively modern cooking techniques used to make the most of what they had.

    Struggling to get past the first 30 seconds of music.. ugh.. I post positive things every day and try to be very encouraging but some things have to be called out.. :D
    On paint, I have been a painting contractor and general contractor since the 1990's.. I highly recommend getting PPG if you can, and go for the Manor Hall line of paint. It makes a huge difference.. Yes it is more expensive but FAR less expensive than repairs or repainting every 5-7 years.. From older formulations I have gotten 13-15 years without any issue. Behr, Sherwin Williams, and others in my experience cannot make similar claims, particularly in humid environments.

    liver is high in antioxidant Superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase enzymes ... freeze drying is the best way to prepare to keep heat from destroying sensitive peptide bonds in the liver. if you purchase liver , only use New Zealand or Argentinian cattle - they are the purest and free of any diseases

    It's admirable to want your kids to stay home but making that your focus with them will inevitably push them away. A suggestion to empower them with projects that teach them skills, such as skills to manage a farm. Fence building, projects with the equipment, more welding jobs, teach them more about the whole farm and send to train with others to learn those skills, which you're doing a lot of already. Teach values and skills don't try to keep them trying to teach them.

      The quickest way to alienate an audience is to make the videos religious.

Also, stating the Rhodes' children crave religion is annoyingly presumptuous and rude in the extreme.
