Hello my kind friend
Yay!!! Wyatt!! What a beautiful miracle for a beautiful family. ❤
Agree! Such a blessing thank you
Girl you are super busy. But you got it for sure. You and your mister make a great team. Always something to do but it keeps us young lol.
Thank you that’s so kind
Be careful on your trip and prayers for all of your family
Thank you friend.
Travel safe prayers for all to stay well
Thank you so much friend
Love all the animal. They have a good home. Best life.
Thank you so much
You exude such a caring spirit. This entire video was a testimony to such. You are taking off to care for Grandma, you meal prep for the care of family, chicken care and comfort done, same with Peaches and the pups. Assuming you are back home from your trip. I’ll need an update on Aaron’s success moving all the stone. Until we visit again….
❤Momma G
Thank you momma g i truly appreciate you so much
The heifer has to be bred and have a calf before she will give milk that's going to be a while, plenty of time to pet and love on Peaches.😊❤hope your time with your gran was cherished time . Welcome bk
You know what’s funny I would have never thought you would need to tell someone that they only produce milk after giving birth. However my neighbor boys came to meet her. They had never seen a cow in real life until her. But I grew up with them I forget (I shouldn’t!) that not everyone knows about live stock
Love you Jess be safe
Thank you so much see you soon
Peaches just has the sweetest lil face! 🐮 I love how she was following you around as you were picking up the poo. 😆😆
Sending prayers for safe travels and a speedy recovery for your family. 🙏🏼💜
PS... That's awesome about Wyatt wrestling again! 🙌🏻✝️💜
Thank you so much! I truly appreciate it
Yay, Wyatt! Congratulations!! Wow, girl, you did a lot of everything before you left! Peaches and Roberto are so funny. Blu is such a cutie. He was wanting his momma, wasn't he? Lol! God bless you all!
Thank you I stay busy!
Wow. I can’t believe how that pile of gravel froze like that. I think I’ve definitely underestimated how cold the ground gets. Absolutely amazing! Great job on all the souping with friends. Im finally catching up on videos. Peaches is so cute and growing so fast. Have a fabulous week sweet Jessica!
Thank you I’m so happy you came to watch! Hope all is well!
Hi Jessica and sweet family! I know you where rushing around like a mad lady trying to get everything done before your trip. At one point I thought you looked a little stressed.
Please take care of yourself, I know your cup runneth over, but they will be fine. You’ve got a wonderful husband and responsible children that will take care of things.
Peaches and Roberto are adorable.
Just wait till Kodie sees how Blu cried for his mommy, just too sweet.
Have a safe trip and a blessed day everyone!
Thank you my good friend for the concern. It’s always a little stressful to travel. But spending time with my grandmother was worth it.
You have gotten so much done before you leave I find it amazing. That adorable cow is indeed growing. Poor Erin that gravel was crazy watching him up in the air….yikes. Safe travels
Do crazy! Thank you so much my friend
Nothing like puppy kisses. Peaches is looking bigger.
So cute I love it!
Hi Jessica, the soup looks good. Glad you got some of the gravel broken loose.
It’s a mess but Aaron got most of it moved
She definitely doesn't mind the dog.
Our buff Orpington Owen, has an odd crow also.
So funny! I love it!
Jessica prayers for safe trip.
Thank you friend
Another great video. Love how you explain everything . The cow coming on great. Hope your well . Xx
Thank you so much my friend I appreciate that so much!
Yeah Wyatt 🎉 Im so happy for you!! Aaron did fantastic even though him bouncing the tracker was a bit scary. Peaches looks like she is doing really well adjusting to her new diggs! Take good care!!😊
Thank you so much. I truly appreciate it.
Hi Jessica, good to hear, Wyatt is recovering from his accident enough to wrestle. You are the cookingness {is that a word?} person I have ever seen. This is the best time of the year to clean up cow poo, lol. Your calf is very cute and it was fun watching the calf and Roberto sniffing each other. Thanks for sharing and have a safe trip.
Thanks John I appreciate it so much. They are all such cute blessings in my life!
Have a safe, blessed trip! I love how you treat your animals❤
Thank you so much
She is cute and she has really grown. I love your cow.
Thank you so much.
Awesome video!! 😊
Thank you so much
for awhile we used.old tractor tire but attacked to piece of wood so hay didn't sit on ground
Love it great idea
Awesome for Wyatt! I was 18 when I fractured my spine and although took a while to recover it felt great to do things I had done prior to my injury! Wyatt will do great but as a mom now of a teenage athlete myself now, I can appreciate the worry! Love your channel all the way from the east coast of Canada!
Thank you so much! I truly appreciate the perspective. Thank you again
Safe trip 😊
Thank you friend!
Hi Jessica. Those 3 chickens went a long way. Glad for Wyatt that he can do his sports. Looks so bare with no garden. Boy, that gravel pile is almost solid.😮 Hope all i’d well with the gang, homestead, and your side of the family.
Thank you friend. Aaron managed it pretty well! I appreciate you so much
Hi sweet one! You are doing so much just to leave town you are making me exhausted...lol!!! Everyone at home will be fine...you have taught them well! I am so happy Wyatt s back to being himself and able to wrestle again! Peaches is so cute! Safe travels! Bih hugs and many blessings!

Thank you so much it is truly just awesome
So happy to hear Wyatt was able to get back to competing again and tell him congratulations 🎈🍾🎊!!!!! When you told us my heart jumped for you being a mom and tears of joy couldn’t help it . Just thought I would let you know I’m happy for you ! God is Good!!! May he continue to be with him and your family!!!!
It’s a constant emotional thing for me if you can see I’m just truly blessed to see him do it!
What an absolute blessing for you to see Wyatt back in sports! Your calf is beautiful too❤
It’s beyond mind blowing to see. I honestly had no hope to see it again that day in the Emergency room
Peaches is so cute and yes I think she has grown. Have a safe trip. We will see you when you get back. Take care🥰🇺🇸

Thank you is so very kind.
Happy for Wyatt 🎉 what a sweet cow ! Poor Arron 😢cutest puppy 🐶 ever ! Thank you for sharing, have a safe trip . See you soon 🍁🙏🍁
Thank you friend! I appreciate you
Hey! Just wondering if you could have lit a fire on the mounds to thaw them out? I've seen people light fires to thaw out the ground when trying to build. Hope everything with your family is OK. Have a safe trip!
I had wondered the same thing myself.
Oh that GRAVEL!!
What fun that was!
ge looks like our daisy she passed bout 15 yrs ago
Oh so sad.
So happy Wyatt had a fantastic recovery! Aaron has his work cut for him with that pile. The way the tractor is lifting off the ground is a bit scary. Growing up on a farm, we would hear stories about people getting crushed under tractors after a roll over. Question: what’s that on the poor chicken’s back? It sort of looks like it’s molting but also has some red stuff stuck on the back?
Oh thank you. The chicken has a saddle it’s c at liked. The old rooster pulled her feathers and it protects her from the others pecking at her. It’s protection
What are those hens wearing? Love Peaches! She so pretty.
Thank you they are called a saddle they protect them from getting pecked at or ridden hard by the rooster. The old one was supper aggressive.
Thanks for your videos! Question I have had for a while- who is your older son and does he ever visit etc?
Yeah I have addressed it. He is a collage athlete with the hopes of making an Olympic team. There are no issues. He is off at collage and lives on his own and works and all that. We don’t have him on the channel because he asked to stay private. And we respect several family members who say they don’t want to be on the channel or social media at all.
can you build a fire on pile or next to it??
Maybe? Not sure
Blue is sad
I know poor baby boy! I just loves his mom so much
does Roberto think she's a big dog
Lol. I thought so, too. He was hopping at her like he wanted her to chase him. 😂😂💜
lol
Are you going to raise peaches for meat or milk share or pet? Just curious?
She is for milk. We will have her around 20 or more years.
try lil molasses on it bet she'll follow u anywhere l9l
lol she loves it
I like your channel, but if I can give you a little constructive criticism. You lose me most of the time with all the explaining you do. Don't mean to hurt anyone's feelings, just would like it more if you moved a little faster with what is actually going on.
I think she tries to make sure she covers it all because everyone is at all different levels.. we may not need it, but some people do and a little refresher doesn't hurt 😊
We can all learn a few things and I think she’s trying to be helpful 😊
I appreciate the input. Thank you for the honest opinion
@@modernhomesteadalaskaI personally appreciate all of your explanations and if she doesn’t like it she can always speed up and watch it in a faster format. So please don’t change a thing!
Jessica, please don’t let that get you down. Keep doing what you are doing. Love your channel 😊
