I love this type of video. As a visual learner who is striving to have a home business, your insight and transparency (whether spoken or filmed) is very valuable to me! Thank you🌻
I imagine this video being super helpful for people wanting to get into the blogging business. Personally, I'd love to see a video of your actual day in the life with kids (unless you don't wish to, which is obv fine). As someone who would also love a big family but is kinda afraid of the logistics of all of it, it would be super helpful. Anyway, have a great day!
My Mother had 10 children it’s hard work. I don’t have any.
loved this realistic view into your day and business:) Hugs Maria
I understand it’s a lot of work, but now have a deeper appreciation for the time and energy put into this job. I also need to remember that some things are “fake” (portable fake surfaces) and not as perfect as my eyes are seeing- so, don’t compare myself and feel like a failure!
Thank you for showing behind the scenes people think you tubers just make money but it truly is your job and it takes teamwork to make it work doesn't it all do great! I think it's awesome and a wonderful life I think it's great I love your videos
Thank you so much!
I know this video is 7 months ago. However, I am binge-watching because I just found your channel 2 days ago and I love love love it... all of it!!!
I loved this episode! Such a great look into your day and blogging/vlogging life. Love the way you prioritize your family and kids and then balance that with a work from home job. I would definitely love to see more of this content in other seasons!
Oooh behind the curtain! Very interesting! Thanks Lisa
I watch so many blogs I find myself talking while I’m cooking,cleaning, or working the chickens
I am really enjoying your channel and am watching and learning different ways to use my six year old sourdough starter. You have a lovely family. Thank you!
I am so glad that you made this video as I’m sure that most of your viewers,myself included, had no idea how much effort goes into these videos that we love so very much. I want to take the time today to thank you for all the work you do to give me these wonderful times to sit back and peak in on you and your precious family. Lisa, I really appreciate all your hard work and the fact that you are always sharing. Being a retired photographer I know how challenging it can be, but rest assured that you are doing a wonderful job. THANK YOU 🙏🥰😘
That was amazing. How do you ever get everything done and hopefully have some time for you? Thank you so much for sharing your life through youtube. I love watching everything that you do.
yes! i definitely get time to myself. that time just doesn't normally include my camera haha
We love seeing our journey! Great job inspiring me to be more. God Bless P.S. Keep sharing your journey with us.
Absolutely loved this video... very helpful as a new blogger and busy momma.
I have so much respect for you and how you go about your work and home life! We appreciate it!
Whew! I need to sit down and rest a while! You are one busy lady! Have you ever had a person ask you when you say you’re a stay at home working mom what you do all day??? Does that person’s face be like 😳? You’re amazing! Me? I have to get my grandson to show me TikTok on my phone! 🤦🏻♀️ So glad that UA-camrs like you are so tech savvy and willing to share that with other entrepreneurs just starting. What a blessing! 🙌🏻 I like learning recipes, etc., and seeing videos of kids swimming, playing, milking cows (you go Joanna!) and all things farm! You have such a eclectic channel that offers something for anyone! Can’t wait to try that soup recipe! Tomatoes are coming in by the truckloads! 🍅🍅🍅🥰
I've seen videos where UA-camrs talk about what they do to get their videos uploaded, but you definitely make me admire you even more after watching this video... Like a real 'behind the scenes' with the serious bits of getting it done.
I love this! I don’t know how you get it all done!
And YES, loved this type of video.
WOW! What an amazing video! Thank you for showing us about everything that goes on in making your videos! You are such a strong woman and I admire you a lot!!
I ALWAYS enjoy coming here to visit with you. I learn something EVERY.SINGLE.TIME. Thank you so much for all of the effort that you put into this for us.
I absolutely LOVED this video as it made so much of what else we regularly see on your vlog and blog make sense!
It helped me understand your life from a different perspective which as many of your viewers might also be interested in starting a vlog or another interest it helped see just how you slot it in amongst your 6 kids!!! (Facinating from an entertainment point of view too!)
Please add this style of video to once a month or 6 weeks etc so we can follow along with the change of seasons and how they effect your vlog/farm life/work life balance.
A very different video from you. Loved it.
Loved the sponsored props too. I will have to see if they ship to Australia or not.
Xx
Yes to more! Very helpful to see the process.
I like seeing you more relaxed like this video and your pregnancy video last week.
Oh how I would love to have the cucumbers and tomatoes!!! I can just see Danny coming up behind you and trying to eat the soup and croutons!!!! He is so cute!!❤️
Always enjoy the blogs, bit really enjoyed this one. Very informative. Pls include more of these from time to time. Thanks for all the great content always.
I loved this! Very helpful! 🌻♥️🌻
Thanks Lisa! I love your creativity! Your videos are so inspiring! 🤗
Okay, let me just say…I HAD NO IDEA!!! Wow!! I’m exhausted and I just watched it!! I loved this video!! I’m guessing you all don’t have much time for tv?! What is your husband’s role with all this? I know you said it is tag team for sure but does he help with school? Does he work out of the house or no? This is so awesome that you shared this. Thank you so much!!!
Awe I would love to see more of your day!! This was a very fun video to watch. 👏🏼
I really enjoy your content!
I’m the same way with kids and water! I need to get mine lessons as well, having 5 kids running/crawling around water is the scariest thought for me right now
I love all your videos 💖
Wow, you work so hard on these. It shows❤ . I'm definitely not up to that task but I really enjoyed learning a little of how you do it. Love this channel. Xxoo
Love this insight to your world.
I think the flatbread would make a really nice “build your own” pizza. Almost like a lunchable! Quick and easy but fun for the kiddos
Wow. You’re a super mom. Impressive!
I love this type of video....just a bit shorter! It was very interesting. God Bless you and your Family.
I have a UA-cam channel also, & this was so helpful! Thank you for sharing, I really enjoyed this video!
Thanks for this descriptive video. I’ve always wondered how you got everything done over the course of a week.
Lisa, I have to ask you and I don't want to sound disrespectful or stupid but I just don't understand how or why you put sauerkraut with most of the delicious food you make. You put together that gorgeous toasty waffle with eggs and bacon and then plopped a big glob of sauerkraut right in the middle of it all and I just can't imagine how sauerkraut can taste good with eggs like that. Please help me with this . I love sauerkraut but not with fried eggs. I'm sure you probably talked about this before but I must have missed it. Thanks so much for all that you do to bring us this wonderful content.
Lisa, this was super interesting and would love to see more like this! Hello from (West) St. Louis (not far from you I think!)
Lisa, please share your favorite medicinal herbs and essential oils ( I have seen the ones on cleaning ) Thank you .
Very interesting
Love that bowl could you put a link were you got it. Please
its from an antique store so sadly I don't have a link!
I just can’t get over how much you resemble Scarlett Johansson! You are much more relatable and interesting though!
Thank you for your hard work to bring us lovely content.
Could you share how you get good thumbnails? I have a channel and am struggling to make eye catching thumbnails.
Very interesting says the person who has no clue what it takes to do what you do!
I feel like you have felt the need throughout multiple videos-years to spend time on your videos defending what your husband does to contribute to the family. This probably stems from what we see as you working so hard with so many kids and such tremendous efforts filming planning etc.. most long time viewers probably feel that your husband could do more after your business let him quit his job. Probably true. He's a helper as we have clearly seen. But you have so much on your shoulders as the mother, the homemaker, and running the business that supports your family. The first two roles simply cannot be done by anyone else. Even more, you've been pregnant or nursing and carrying baby throughouy all of it. So how fair is it that your spouse is just taking a minor helping role. Maybe he supervises play time with the kids and mows the lawn. In general in doesn't seem fair.
How can you afford all that you have and do, like husband going to gym and kids swimming lessons and such?
💙💙💙
Maybe if Luke would be on video more people wouldn’t assume he in lounging on the couch eating bon Bons! Lol
How can he be in the Video when he is doing things w the younguns so Mom had time to do the video
@@marieallgyer9194 it was a joke!
We raised our 4 kids in a town that has a huge lake. So swimming lessons are very important. I found that many of their school friends quit lesson once they could tread water in the deep end and started to the learn front crawl. I found that children would also be failing this class because the front crawl is more difficult, which is probably why so many kids quit their lessons. There is a false sense of capability levels given to people who can handle the deep end of a swimming pool. We would take our family into BC camping, and to mountain valley's with large lakes with tall rocky mountain cliffs. The older kids loved to jump off them into the water below. The waves on large lakes are hard for even the strongest swimmer. Even though my older kids had already completed all the swim levels, I still watch them like a hawk. As for my youngest, he had to stay in a life jacket when we'd take the older ones to the lake. He was even jumping off the cliffs too at age 4. Life jacket on all the time of course, even to play in the sand. We would go with friends so we had 7 kids altogether, and keeping tabs on younger ones can be distracted. So both my boys had to wear a life jacket at all times when they were little. Children and water is very scary, and having them get to the point of being experienced and strong swimmers helps moms be not so stressed out. Just a little. My 25 year old is in Nova Scotia right now and just sent me photos of the ocean and beach that he's at. And of course, my protective instincts kicked in. I reminded him that it's an ocean with currents. He's a prairie boy and not used to swimming in the ocean. Don't let your kids quit their lessons even when they get hard. Lakes are not like swimming pools and oceans are not like lakes.
So well said. Thank you
100% The best lessons and life skill you could ever invest in. My mom couldn't swim but she insisted my brother and I went all the way through swim classes, beginner to lifesaving. No quitting, it wasn't an option. I grew up in Michigan where so many of us live right on the lake. Now when I travel to the ocean with the family I am confident but also really respectful of that water. I never worry about sharks because I am too concerned with making sure we all safe in the waves and currents, lol.
My husband is a prairie boy who grew up on the lovely calm and shallow Lake Winnipeg. I remind him all the time “that’s a river” “ that’s the ocean” “that may be a lake but look at those waves from the valley wind!” I taught him a lot about “lazy swimming” how to be more efficient and how to float as a muscular person. And we always have all our safety gear :)
I agree completely. We live on a lake and all of my kids learned to swim at a young age but then I signed them up for the local swim teams in summer. There they learned all the strokes and did them everyday. It was every weekday from about 8 to 11 and sometimes some local meets. The coaches were great and practices intensive. By the end of the summer my two oldest swam better than I ever did and the youngest wasn't far behind. We did this for about three years. I did still worry when we went to the ocean each summer. I grew up knowing the waves and tides, learned to swim in the ocean, they hadn't. Despite the fact that by then they were better swimmers than I was I still watched them like an eagle when they were in the water, ready to run in st the drop of a hat. They were teenagers by then and really didn't appreciate my concern but they did listen when I went in and checked the undertow, the current, where it was pulling, etc. It's fun watching them now teaching their kids to swim. This was the first year of swim lessons. I just bit my tongue and enjoyed.
Absolutely! Our school had an indoor pool and we were all required to take swim lessons from 4th - 12th grade. We lived in the Finger Lakes district and we often went to the various lakes and even spent a lot of time visiting the various Great Lakes (which, as you know, act more like seas with tides and ravaging winter storms) so we were always swimming, sailing, canoeing, kayaking, skiing, boating, fishing, you name it, we were on the water doing it! The very first and most important lesson is to respect the water.
You are a very good and protective mother and it sounds like you aren’t overly protective, just as needed. God bless you and yours!
This was such great information. I was so curious about how the process worked.
I have, frankly, never understood how you manage schooling and care of the home and all the needs of 8 people, going on 9, and tend the land and animals plus all your projects.
It seems like Lisa has more hours in a day than the rest of us do. But I've decided that it's because she makes a plan and follows through with it.
Organization.
@@joymorrison6614 I work from home and did not homeschool until I had to for the past year and some months. I am extremely organized and all in the household know that I earn a living, too, and they have jobs to do. But, there are so many wild cards in her existence, like the days they lost tending to the damage and mess from that 100-yr. storm and I suppose her children are outside a lot of the time with safe spaces to roam. But, I'd have to see a real DITL to figure out what she does with the suddenly hurt child or sick cow and such because it is also a small house, though gorgeous. One cannot follow through easily with plans and that many people and a husband who's busy out and about on the farm. We do not by any means have chaos and disruption all the time, but it's hard work.
@@lynnnelson6689 I am organized and so is my family because I work from home. But she is in a small space with a lot of people who are all around all the time since they all work and school on the premises. I work from home, so we are rather more organized than most households. But with that many people, she may be the General Patton of the farm mothers. We also do not have livestock and crops on anything like their numbers.
@@philippapay4352 I understand but if you saw her Q&A video recently, she explains she has help - a lot of help. This comment was not personal rather in general. I think if people would watch TV less, Facebook less and let's say, less on social media, they would have more time. That does not mean you, okay. Take care and remember we are all individuals, some can accomplish more than others and no need to feel guilty.
I found this fascinating, Lisa. My admiration for all you young women bloggers just keeps growing😊
Where’s the older women though.
@@peggypeterson5702we’re tired 🤣🤣🤣
loved this video! It helped to see how you organize things to make sure the most important things get done and how to balance normal life with business. I would love to see more videos like this!
Team work makes the dream work! Keep up the hard work you guys!!! 👍
Something I like to do with my basil in the summer is make pesto and then freeze it into cubes to use all year long! Sometimes I'll add a cube or two some marinara, or make a creamy pesto sauce for pasta, or add it to pizza. It's just so delicious and nice to have on hand! Another way we save basil is stack several leaves on top of each other, roll them up and then wrap in foil, place in container or bag and freeze. Then all you have to do is get one out, unwrap and chiffonade (while frozen) and add it to eggs or sauce, etc!
That was very interesting & very informative. Thanks Lisa. Loved the video...more would be great.
Perfect timing, just sat down to fold laundry and watch during my boys’ nap/quiet time ☺️
Same here! Always some laundry to fold with kids.
@@flaviegauthier9262 oh man, I don’t have kids yet and I always have laundry to fold still. I hate laundry and am terrified for when I do have kids. 🤣
Ha, yeah, I'm one of those people who "need" measurements for recipes. So thank you for making those happen! :-)
This may explain why you seem to hold your breath a lot, and take such deep breaths when you do breathe. I bet the years go pretty fast for you and your family. Do take care Lisa...remember to stop.....and smell the roses. 😉 🤗
For zucchini, slice add lots of garlic powder, diced tomatoes, 1 jalapeno pepper diced, chedderjack cheese, bake 25 minutes
Lisa, I’ve been watching you for years and simply love your content and your family (from a mother of 8).
I made the cheddar waffles and my kids LOVED them !!
Thanks Lisa for this video. Actually really helpful to me as I’m pretty new into my blogging journey. I don’t have a picturesque home so I have been wondering about how you do your photography. It really helps to see how you do that and how you schedule your days/photo shoots. Definitely going to check out your sponsor for this video, I need those back drops! Have a great day. :)
I've been watching for your Tuesday video! This was VERY interesting! I had no idea what goes into a video! 👏
You on top of that chair is giving anxiety! 😅
Yes, I really liked hearing about the vlogging and your schedule. :-)
I honestly don’t know how you do it…..and your right it looks effortless, but I can only imagine the work that you put into your channel…. Your a busy Mama xo
Love your sharing, would also enjoy seeing just your family times and thing around your lovely farmhouse.
Love your blogging related content! Please share more! Thanks
Please tell me there are days when you don't want to do anything .
It's inspiring what you do every day . Just wow 👌👌👌
Oh,I forgot diced onion
loved this video! It helped to see how you organize things to make sure the most important things get done and how to balance normal life with business. I would love to see more videos like this!
Wow ! I had no idea of all that you do behind the scenes to bring us the content .Very interesting ,Thanks for sharing Lisa !
I love your videos! Hope your farm is doing okay! 😊💜
This was such an interesting video. I have always heard vloggers talk about how time consuming the filing/editing process is, but actually seeing it being done and your explanations behind it all was super interesting. Thanks for going to so much trouble. I love your channel x
Wow! This gave me a headache. Respect!😳
This was interesting to see the behind the scenes. So true how you can do more with less time with kids to balance your day. I think it is so cool how you have figured out how to get paid to be a stay at home mom and you are doing it without sacrificing the being a mom part to do it.
I love this style of videos
Yes, I did like this kind of video! Could you let us know where/how you store your photos? As an aspiring food photographer, our computer is becoming bogged down with Raw photos and it’s time to put them somewhere else. I’m looking for 1) where to upload them, 2) where to store them permanently, and 3) where to back-up store them. Thank you! Love your channel - and I’ve made (and photographed!) your sourdough starter pizza many times. It’s great.
When do you write the blog posts?
Wow😳 Lisa I had no idea the steps you take to put together one video!!!! This was very interesting to know what it takes… How in the world do you do all you do???
Very informative and yes I totally enjoyed this format of video… And may i say You’re looking awfully lovely today ❤️!!!!
If you're interested in a little tip to your never ending list of "things to remember" If you don't want your cutting board to move around while you're using it, a damp paper towel or the spongy drawer liner put under it works wonders. I just love your videos, Thank you ❤️ p.s. I suppose after viewing this video some people are still convinced you kick back eating bonbons the rest of the day.
Do you have an ice cream recipe you can recommend (no ice cream maker)? And how do you separate your cow's milk and cream? I can't seem to get pure cream off of the top after settling. I get some pure cream but then the thinner milk pours through and I get half and half. Awww you make your mason jar coffee just like I do! maple syrup too! Super great video. Really appreciate learning your process.
Very informative! I think most people have no idea all the work that bloggers/UA-camrs have to go through to make just one post or video. It was very interesting, thank you. 😊
Hey Lisa I lost reach of you for a while .... so glad I found your vlogs....I missed all your helpful hints
I’ve made flatbreads with sourdough starter discard - just fried up in butter with a sprinkle of salt. Really delicious.
Love this. I am debating on starting a youtube channel. I worry I’m making it something it’s not. I would love to eventually be able to cut back on working my daytime job and be able to stay home with my growing family but doesn’t seem realistic. I love to see the work that goes into it. Would live more content like this.
I have a question about whole wheat sourdough starter, I recently started it with white hard wheat that I freshly milled, why does it smell so strange compared to all purpose flour starter?
Thanks!
-Lydiya
My grandkids wouldn’t eat this because of the seeds! even though I used an immersion blender 😢. I’ll have to put these in a food grinder that takes seeds out
So her husband and her both work in their homestead and their social platforms and no one has to "report" themselves to a boss or clock in clock out job??? Really? This is possible?? What a dream
You have probably answered this before but I just want to know how you can drink raw milk without getting sick and does it taste better than regular milk?
I like the props, never knew people used props just thought it was their space ( kitchen)
Ok, this all sounds really exhausting. So many thanks for all you do. Especially for your videos.
Yes loved this style too…food looked yummie 🤗🙋🏻♀️💕🇬🇧jane
Cool sponsor!
Yes! I like this type of video. It's a little more helpful than just a day in the life video. Thank you!
Loved this video! This was so helpful, thanks for sharing!
