I actually laughed out loud when Douglas had to get in the shot at the end! He saw you admiring those regal deer and thought he fit right in. 😄 Everything looks so beautiful. You are inspiring me to get started with my decorations.
Can I just go on record right now and say Aaron is a GENIUS!! Who thinks of all the things he does? How nice to have someone who plans ahead like this!!!
I have an amaryllis blooming in my non heated greenhouse right now. I actually love them to bloom in Jan through March. After the sparkle of Christmas, the blooms help bring that spark of color and life during the winter.
I’ve never grown amaryllis but keep a half-dozen Christmas cactus for that very reason - so happy in the dreary gray of Jan-Feb! I’ve got a brilliant pink one blooming right now, so it thinks it’s a thanksgiving cactus… 😂
Using branches in this manner is one of the cool things I learned from Laura. And she has such an eye for beautiful things that I’ve been able to pick up on. Thanks, Girl!
My husband and I are building a new house. There will be conduit everywhere, thanks to your videos! I'm so glad Aaron talks about it because I never would have thought of it either! I'm even bringing irrigation and extra conduit into the middle part of the driveway near the garage so I can get water to a planter with out fuss. Thanks Aaron!
Just finished a 4.5 reno of our 1938 home with a 1980 addition (bright gold bathroom hardware 😬) and, boy, could I slam a huge list of requirements for a new build that I never would’ve thought of before! Lol For instance, 3k sq ft on 1.5 acres and it had ONE faucet at the end of the house . duh So one of the improvements was adding a frost-free on the other end plus 100’ accordion hoses so I can reach every corner of our upper yard. Kudos planning for your yard from the very beginning!!
I completely understand Aaron's conduit joy. When forward thinking on the front end pays off down the road it is always good to pat yourself on the back.
What a beautiful way to do the amaryllis i bought my mom one every year for Christmas till her death lost all them after i had surgery and had a reaction iost 17 now i want to get more I want to restart so I will honor my mom
Your hard work makes this property spectacular! ❤ Your enduring legacy will forever live through the years and bring peace, comfort, and joy to future generations. God has blessed you and your family. ❤
The deer 🦌 🦌 looks perfect there! Can not wait for the tour. Love the sneak peak of the colored lights. The flowers 🌺 are going to be so beautiful in bloom. If you need any technical advice ask Aaron, he can conduit!
My neighbor here in Baton Rouge LA has an entire garden of Amaryllis. It gets full afternoon sun (100 degree temps in summer) and our winters might get 3 -5weeks of 30 degrees. And amazingly they bloom every spring and its glorious!
I have been gifted amaryllis the last several years from my godmother (and I just turned 65!). I stored them each year and then bring them back out for the season. Worked every time so far (zone 5b outside Chicago). We recently moved to zone 10 SWFL and I am planning to plant them outside next week. 🤞🙏 I have been told they will grow all year here. Hoping that all 9 make for a pretty show soon.
You guys are surely putting me in holiday mode!! For years, I’ve wished for a source for quality lighted deer sculptures. Would you mind sharing your source? Thanks in advance!💚❤️🤍
Great job, Aaron, on the planning! I understand how that feels: when you are programming and designing it in a particular way for future proofing, and then the future comes, and you have to add a new feature, and it was a short and simple addition. Planning and future-proofing can make any job simple.
Aaaw you’ve got a Claus Dalby book on the table in front of the window 🥰 Made me smile to see a bit of danish in your beautiful home ❤️😍🤍🙏 Another wonderful and inspirational video, thank you 🙏
loved the editing with the dust blowing off the box and then Laura pushed the box along the way - it connected the whole process together. very fun! loved it.
I’m so inspired!! ❤❤❤ Love the way you arrange your tables adding the books and candles etc. 😊 Makes you want to light the candle and sit down and read 😊😊😊 I need a much larger Amaryllis budget than I currently have!!! I usually go for the $6 bulbs at Walmart, for Christmas gifts, 🎁 and found that my family always sends me a picture of them when they’re blooming. Unfortunately last year I didn’t get one for myself!! 😢
This year, just a suggestion, tie the string to a ziptie that has a label that says where the string leads to. I used to do this with wires and cables when i worked in IT before I retired. It makes life so much easier when you need to come back months or years later to do work.
Gol, how smart of Aaron to do that! And when it was used, he was not crowing about thinking about it, just getting the use out of the cost. Amazing, Aaron!
Laura you never cease to amaze me !! Love how you potted up the amaryllis with the moss and branches. Those pussy Willow branches are sooo beautiful ! Perfect spot for the deer. You and Aaron work so well together so complimentary. Love you all !! Hope you all have a great day. 😊😊
My denim GA hat arrived today.... why I love this hat .. the brim is bent perfectly .. the adjustment clip is great .. love the embroidery .. added joy was the pocket to hold the adjustment strip so it doesn't hang. Thank you❤❤
Oh my goodness that pot and white amaryllis will be so perfect with the blue tree. I just got a pink, double white,and red they are amazing to see grow. I bet the kids will enjoy seeing how much they grow each day. I also got paperwhites they are so dainty.
Thank you for the lesson on potting Amaryllis. I have considered buying one or two. Now I know what to do and how to care for them. Beautiful deer Christmas light sculptures that add a sparkle and natural look. Yes, on not adding more lights to the balcony Christmas tree. Looks especially festive! I like seeing the cats in your videos. Each is so cute and affectionate.
Laura, you are so incredibly talented. Thank you for the tutorials. It makes life so much easier watching you create. Sending loving and peace-filled thoughts to everyone.
🍂 Hi Laura and Aaron, The amaryllis are going to look stunning, Great job on the electric cord Aaron, ohhhh the deer and the tree looks great, can't wait for the Christmas Tree Light Tour puts me in the mood for the Holidays. Thank you for sharing, have a great rest of the day. 🍂 😊 👋 🌲
Such festive projects today - getting me in the Christmas spirit and keen to start my own decorating. Aaron is the master of planning ahead - what a treasure he is!!!! And you have to find a way to get lights on Douglas and Russell so that they are part of the display. 🐈🐈⬛
Love the Amarillo bulbs they look beautiful where you put them so formal. Yeah Aaron good job on the lights you are Amazing. Oh Laura the lights are perfect from the deers to the tree on the balcony just beautiful good job
Aaron, many entities from non-profits to home builders and municipalities could benefit from you me ‘think ahead’ mentality - and not just in infrastructure but all areas of logistics! This is my favorite type of GA video as it has practical and helpful tips that everyone can learn from and utilize, whether homeowners or renters.
Haha! i used to slide my trees down the stairs, too. The kids thought it was great fun! So looking forward to the video of all the lights. What lucky neighbors you have to be able to see that spectacular display each night!!
Thank you thank you thank you!!! The bulbs are always something i want to do but never have the space to do it. I love watching your videos and experiencing all the gardening I didnt know I wanted to do! Now I can experience it through you. Thank you!
Beautiful! Great job!❤ Like Aaron, my husband thinks about things too and so do I. Usually I buy all the materials for a project(not that much anymore because of my limited ability to move at the moment but I will have to start back regardless because it feeds me, I really enjoy that. Blessings 🙏🏻💞
What a fun video. Love the deer and the tree on the balcony. I am really looking forward to the Christmas light tour. The Amaryllis are going to be awesome, Those were healthy bulbs. I love watching your channel and think you work together as a great team. Have a blessed day everyone.
Loved this video!❤🌲 I stopped to call my local garden center to see if they had amarylis bulbs in yet...picking them up tmrw! Your bulb pots are always so inspirjng. 😍 Way to go, Aaron. 👏
I believe those in wax are meant to be single use bulbs. But I've peeled the wax off after they bloomed before and kept them. Some do just fine - some don't.
Love the white amaryllis in the blue and white pot. Have you tried pre-soaking the amarayllis roots before potting? Last year, I tried pre-soaking for the first time, and it worked so well. I bought bulbs from HD and they all came up and bloomed so beautifully and evenly. I soaked the bulbs in warm water in a cup that allowed only the roots get wet. Plus it only took 3-4 weeks to bloom instead of 6-8.
I just saw Danielle at Northlawn Flower Farm talking about this on one of her videos. So, I am trying it this year on my bulbs from last year, which I brought out of dormancy and have repotted back up. Hoping for the best!
Laura, It's always nice to see what you're up to. I like your "conveyor belt" to move boxes, lol. I enjoy seeing Russell and Douglas, but I haven't seen Cheddar lately.
Good morning Laura! My friend and i have mastered the "how to bring a big box down a set of steep stairs technique," so i really got a great chuckle from you this morning. Love the deer and the amaryllis! Hugs from N.C..❤
Good Morning! 🎄Thank you for the refresher on planting Amaryllis bulbs! I need to plant mine & repot my older ones. I can't wait to see all the lights at night! 🎄🎅🤶🧑🎄☃️

Aaron’s moment to shine! His preplanning was worth it!! 😊 His coupon analogy was spot on. Laura and Aaron are such a great team!
Yep, Like a $5.00 coupon. Sweet.
Laura brought a smile to my face when she slid the box down the stairs. That’s exactly what I do to move heavy boxes. 🦃🍁💚🙃
😊 working smarter, not harder 😂 Love it
Teaching us something new every day! I can’t wait for the tour.
Works great with my heavy laundry basket to!
@@christinenovack6048 And there's the satisfying explosion of clothes when it hits the bottom! 😅
Me too!
Aaron’s joy was infectious and I get the simple pleasure of success from thinking ahead! Great video
@gardeningonthewestforkwith8994 He reminds me of the song "Glow little glow worm, glimmer, glimmer."
He's a wonderful example of a man and husband.
I’m so grateful for the positive nature of this channel. It’s a joy to watch and learn from you! Thanks for sharing your knowledge and home with us! 😊
“It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas”. ❤❤
I got a chuckle from the remnant of Laura’s foraging in her hair. 😂 ❤
You are the most positive, upbeat person and what a motivating pleasure to start the day with. Thank You.
Y E S !!!
Aaron's infrastructure for the win! More props for the editing.
Making sound effects while lifting heavy things is a very important part of the process 😂
Always a JOY to see Russell 🐈 and Douglas 😺
Aaron's planning saves the day (AGAIN)!!! Everything looks SPECTACULAR!!!!❤
Aaron is a genius when it comes to preplanning and visionary thinking! Bravo to you, sir! 👏👏👏
I think his prior experience as a cable guy really contributes to his readiness!
The nine foot tree is bright enough. Everything is so tastefully done. Just beautiful. ❤
I actually laughed out loud when Douglas had to get in the shot at the end! He saw you admiring those regal deer and thought he fit right in. 😄 Everything looks so beautiful. You are inspiring me to get started with my decorations.

My brother is so much like that. My sister in law is so lucky!
Douglas with his Lion King moment
Douglas is so stinking cute posing with the deer! Another fun video to watch! Thanks for sharing!
I have an amaryllis blooming in my non heated greenhouse right now. I actually love them to bloom in Jan through March. After the sparkle of Christmas, the blooms help bring that spark of color and life during the winter.
I totally agree! It’s nice to have that beauty in the dreariest winter months.
I’ve never grown amaryllis but keep a half-dozen Christmas cactus for that very reason - so happy in the dreary gray of Jan-Feb! I’ve got a brilliant pink one blooming right now, so it thinks it’s a thanksgiving cactus… 😂

Laura ingenuity with the tree box! Good job! And Aaron's forethought on the conduit, great job! Love this couple.
I completely understand Aaron's conduit joy. When forward thinking on the front end pays off down the road it is always good to pat yourself on the back.
Love the beautiful Amarillo flower bulbs 💮 and love the beautiful big Christmas deer 🦌🦌 Bucks for your pond 💞
May we all get an Aaron and/or a Paul in our lives. 🙌
Yes, I would love a helpful husband!! Unfortunately mine is not.
Or to BE our own Aaron or Paul 💪🏽 😀 (always gleefully single and always get to do it MY way lol)
Or a Bethany or Laura! 😊
Love the branches in the amaryllis arrangements. You are very creative 🎄
What a beautiful way to do the amaryllis i bought my mom one every year for Christmas till her death lost all them after i had surgery and had a reaction iost 17 now i want to get more I want to restart so I will honor my mom
@susanjohnson7115 So sorry fie your loss. What a blessing you were to your mom.

You can always hang ornaments on the yellow twig dogwoods while you are waiting for the amaryllis ! 🥀
Good idea!!!

I’m in 9A and I planted mine outside after Christmas blooming. They’ve done great. Love them! ~Cassandra
They bloom throughout the year too.
I live in Southern California and they bloom any time they feel like it. 😊
Aaron is a genius! And so adorable.
TOTALLY AGREE… can we CLONE him please!!🤭👏😁
You guys are surely putting me in holiday mode!!
For years, I’ve wished for a source for quality lighted deer sculptures. Would you mind sharing your source? Thanks in advance!💚❤️🤍

Christmas lights are lovely. I love the space you have to organize your items - it makes so easy to access.
Your home is so beautiful. I just love watching you decorate it and make it perfect for Christmas. Thank you for sharing your life with us ❤
loved the editing with the dust blowing off the box and then Laura pushed the box along the way - it connected the whole process together. very fun! loved it.
Love the contrast of the black on white roof supports and balcony railing! Fresh paint job really showing off this year!!!
Seeing Aaron's joy brings me joy! Well done!
Aaron always thinking ahead with conduit! He is genius
Thanks for the info on bulb size and grade. I was not aware of that. Always learning something new from you!
Wish I had Laura's energy. Wow, she can accomplish sooooooooooo much in one day!! Amazing! 🌷🌷🎄🎄🎄
Good morning all have a safe and blessed day ❤️
I’m so inspired!! ❤❤❤ Love the way you arrange your tables adding the books and candles etc. 😊 Makes you want to light the candle and sit down and read 😊😊😊 I need a much larger Amaryllis budget than I currently have!!!

The satisfying slide down the stairs.... I could watch that on repeat 😂
The British have nothing on you my friend. Your Leaf Fascinator in the beginning was quite lovely 😊
In her heart she is a bit of an anglophile

🎶🎶 It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas ... everywhere you go... 🎶🎶
Those deer are everything !
Loved Aaron comparing his joy to couponing...lol
Birch branches would look nice in the pots too
Awe, cute, fluffy, Douglas, roaming through his kingdom.❤
Yes, put the light up deer by the pond again. That was beautiful!!!!
Laura you never cease to amaze me !! Love how you potted up the amaryllis with the moss and branches. Those pussy Willow branches are sooo beautiful ! Perfect spot for the deer. You and Aaron work so well together so complimentary. Love you all !! Hope you all have a great day. 😊😊
Those willow branches are beautiful! Thanks for explanating how the Amaryllis would grow through them Laura 😊

Great job on the electric cord Aaron, ohhhh the deer and the tree looks great, can't wait for the Christmas Tree Light Tour puts me in the mood for the Holidays.

I need to step up my amaryllis game!
Previous owner planted amaryllis in a shade part and they come back every year and bloom spring - north GA 7b/8a
The deer in the pond forest are beautiful as is the lighting on the house. So festival!🌲🤗🌲
How beautiful are the lights! I’d leave the fall lit branches near doorway, it just makes more festive.
BEAUTIFUL!
LOVE,VIC🌻💖🌻

Yes, nobody I know think’s like this. Aaron is so smart and no one conduit better than Aaron! Lol Hi Benjamin and Samantha Grace
Balcony tree - I agree Laura - looks good as it is, the difference in brightness brings dimension to the view!! I think it’s perfect.
Balcony tree lights are just bright enough!

Super creative amaryllis bulb planting!!
I would have pushed. Tree down the stairs also, looks so Christmasy 🎄🎄🎄🎅🏼🎅🏼⛄️
NICE that Aaron had the forethought to put in 2" conduit for running things through. Makes life a whole lot easier! Vindication for him.
I love the deer at the pond/dream stream. I wonder, though, if you don’t need two fawns- Benjamin and Samantha fawns.
Laura always has the prettiest pots ❤️
It's a joy to watch and learn from you!
I got a kick watching you get the tree box down. It Brought back memories. The deer look wonderful. I always wanted lite animals as decorations.
Thank you for talking about these bulbs. What do you think of the ones in wax ? How do you care for them ? You guys are the best!
Merry Christmas 🎄
I believe those in wax are meant to be single use bulbs. But I've peeled the wax off after they bloomed before and kept them. Some do just fine - some don't.
If you search the channel, i think she talked about it last year😊
Love the deer, FESTIVE! Hope you do an aerial too at some point. Amaryllis are my fav this time of year...yours will be gorgeous!
Seeing the placement and use of the conduit was wonderful. Thank you!

Good Morning! 🎄Thank you for the refresher on planting Amaryllis bulbs! I need to plant mine & repot my older ones. I can't wait to see all the lights at night! 🎄🎅🤶🧑🎄☃️
Laura, you always get me in the mood to do something that I wasn’t ready to do! Thanks
Great video. I have been wanting to plant some amaryllis. Love the deer. Can't wait to see the whole property.
