Nice work. Just a thought, in the pasture you have some smaller pine trees. Maybe if you see a likely looking one, leave it there until Christmas. Come back out in December to cut it down. Free Christmas tree!
It's been 6 days lol I'm needing a video from you guys. I hope all is well. Please don't take this the wrong way. You all are just my favorite channel. It's like I'm going through withdrawal. Not literally. Love you all
Always enjoy your videos. Was just wondering how you two met. You seem so compatible. If you don't mind sharing the story of how you met, we all would probably love to hear it.
Your children are so fortunate to grow up this way! They are able to learn so much from you two & from nature. To be able to explore outside & using their imagination. It makes my heart happy🙂 Y’all are getting so much done with the house!! Can’t wait for the next video😍
Sometimes I go back and watch the videos from your first house that I haven't seen before, and I'm amazed at how different you both are now. Back then you looked very worried, now you both seem so happy and confident. It's lovely to see!
You should put some insulation between Mavericks room and the living room, it's a small spot but man it'll save on the noise in that bedroom. Or some kind of soundproofing.
@@fancybrooks3156 yeah it might be the entry closet if it'll take care of any noise but there might be noise from there the other side is the media center and I don't think that's an issue because his closet is on the other side of that
I know I have already posted but I just had to say something. Been getting caught up on Jeff at bobblehead homestead and what an amazing transformation that has taken place. The help of so many other homesteaders shows how tight that community really is. That being said I think it needs to be mentioned that u two showing up and helping him in the beginning was the spark that lit the flame. Not to mention that grumpy is spoiled and happy. Now it's the tiny house that love built. Thank u for being a shinning example of how things go better when we all help.
I really enjoyed today's video. Thank you. I love the vignettes you showed, the bird houses, the chickens in the trees, the Littles helping each other with the cut branches.....very nice!
The fact that all the chicken survived as chicks is remarkable .. you may loose a few to hawks now they’re free ranging but that’s to be expected.. that’s cool the kids got to get some corn.. I hope your door and camera will come in soon.. I enjoy watching your videos..
I wondered what happened to you four, so glad to hear it was only a camera problem. Please know that we miss your shares with us and look forward to them everyday. Keep up the good work, winter will be here before we all know what hit us. I've got 2 more round bales of hay to get and I will be all set for the winter. Hay way up north has been a problem for the farmers to put up with this crazy crazy weather. Take care
2 things to consider to maybe? Get a goose to live with the chickens. The goose will sound the alarm if a hawk or other predator is lurking, and the chickens and the goose will run back to the coop. 2. Mount an outdoor camera with night vision, motion detection, and an SD card to capture exciting action videos, when the goose is asleep.
I love watching you two !!! You make me smile, because you two work so good together and always seem to be having such a good time with everything that you attempt. WOW! Belle is such a hard worker and Maverick is coming along trying to help too. They are so cute! They are so lucky to have parents like the two of you! Glad your two little ones got to enjoy the ears of corn. Everything is coming right along for you family. Thanks for sharing your lives with us.
You really let your personalities come through on this post. Thank you! It was great to see! I always love seeing your son helping his Dad. It’s just so precious. Happy Halloween 2020 to you both!
We just bought a house at the end of July- unfortunately its not our country property(not yet) but watching you motivates me to tackle some of the projects we want to do. So Im going to stop getting sucked into youtube and go get some things done! lol Thanks for sharing(and motivating!!) xo
I love that your home schooling your children. Imo it allows children to have the values your family feels important to have without the corruption of other adults who may not agree with you. I wish that I was smart enough to have done that. Loved the update.
To bad don’t have neighbors with goats? Lol. The amount of work you do, again very( precise) ITS AMAZING ! I’ve had run in with hawk and my cat. Way too close!
Hey Doug & Ashley, I was wondering what your future livestock plans are? Have you thought about adding forested pigs to help you clean up some of your forest brush? I love watching you & the family growing your homestead & making progress. Thanks for sharing your lives & adventures with us.
What a fun and informative video. Glad the camera kept rolling. Awesome bounty from the garden. Maverick looked so proud. Belle is adorable helping with the pasture - takes after her mother. Those kids love each other - you can tell when Maverick was holding the tree limbs and waiting for Belle. I liked the flowers. I also like the birdhouse shelf behind you on the tree. I'm going to do that. Wow, you even worked on the inside of the home. Like I said - great video. Take care.
I think your herd of little velociraptors benefit from having a lot of bush to scurry into for protection. They haven't been penned in and helpless. They know the space, they know where to hide. They know how to scatter. It's hard for a predator to trap them in one spot. I hope that they're gobbling up all the ticks around the place. If you've been watching Bobblehead Homestead, you will have seen Grumpy cat turn into a housecat. Amazing! He is enjoying Jeff's little house, lounging on the window sill and computer table. The good life!
Maybe next year you could plant a border of Marigolds around your garden..My parents have always done this and it keeps rabits out.. And helps protect your plants..Also grass clipings between the rows help hold moisture in the ground
Thanks for the update. You guys are awesome! The kids have grown so much since I first found your channel searching for metal detecting videos. My wife is also a fan now and watches all your videos from our Amazon Fire-stick. You guys are such a positive role model for young families. Thanks for all you do :)
Our weather was too hot this year and I lost about 4 plants to wilt even though we ended up using our patio umbrella to shield them during the 100+ heatwave. I've harvested white eggplant that was absolutely wonderful, no bitterness what so ever, lots of beefsteak tomatoes, cherry tomatoes and that's about it. We lost our cucumber and pepper plants along with two tomato plants that actually reseeded themselves from last year. Your corn looked tender and worth the entire planting experience for young children to appreciate the experience.
Way to persevere guys. Cute top Ashley! Sitting here during hurricane in Florida grateful to see your progress. Been hearing stuff hitting the roof so I might need to use some of your hints. God bless.
You are really coming along with the house......I know you are anxious to get it completed to the point that you want for the winter. You have done a beautiful job. In the spring you can plant another garden, take a little care of it and get 4 ears of corn....Ha ha.....I planted a fall crop of field peas.....I live in the south ...Florida to be exact and hopefully we will get peas to put in the freezer. You are giving your children such good work ethics....they help a lot too. It is a real pleasure to see a family work together. Hope your new camera comes soon!!!
Hi Doug, Ashley, Belle and Maverick , You all did a great job. Ashley you look so happy. Having your new home in the country the land the love for your children and the animal's plus the freedom is very important to you it's so nice to see. I too love the country. My grandchildren are homeschooling also they also stared September also. I really love your channel. Everything looks great you are doing such a beautiful job! Have a blessed week.❤
I adore your family so much!! Those smiles when you were talking about Doug yelling had me cracking up! I had to rewind it just to see you two laugh again. Laughter is contagious ya know.? I was homeschooled too when I was growing up. I much prefer that to public schools personally. Your kids are gonna be amazing as adults with a pure upbringing like this. Great job!!!
In today's modern world, it is almost a dream goal for a mother to stay home with the children. But for Both Mother and Father to be able to stay home with the children is Priceless! Only homesteading offers that. It is the one thing that ensures that Homesteading will grow. Modern office life causes both parents to miss the most special thing life has to offer. Homesteading gives it back. You can't schedule things like the memory of your son running all out to reach his Dad and then falling just short of his goal. Few fathers get memories like that. Homeschooling is the best way to teach. It is artificial to send children off to a warehouse-like building to be taught by strangers who don't share your values, necessarily. Far more natural to grow up seeing how mom and dad interact with people, meet challenges, and solve problems. BTW I really do like your new channel name so much that I wish I'd thought it up myself.
I homeschool my 3 kids and yesterday was their 1st day. I remember when I was in school, I started in Sept and in Calif too. My 2 youngest are in 5th grade and my oldest is a Jr in HS now. This is another great video.
Have you considered putting the stove in the corner so you can have the chimney on the side of the house instead of in the front. That would keep the front of your house more aesthetically pleasing to the eye. Yeah, those hawks will get your chickens. We have lost several chickens to hawks.
Glad to see that you all are doing well. Where I am, it is still warm during the day. The nights are getting a little cooler. Well, glad to hear the updates. Take care.
I am repeating what a few others have said. We missed you over the Labor Day weekend. Now we know that your video camera was not working correctly. Good thing that you have a new one on order. On your homestead, there is always work to be done so you can switch to another chore and get that one completed. I do the same thing with my chores around the house. I have a long list written out so when I finish one and cross it off it gives me a very good feeling. Our grandchildren have all started back to school so Belle is in good company with another 4th grader here. Keep healthy.
I’m like so many, I enjoy your vlogs so much. You’re such a great family and Belle and Maverick are just precious. May God continue to bless you. Diann
I was just thinking of your garden the other day, wondering how things turned out. Thanks for the update. Watching you guys work on your house is giving me the itch to start working on ours. We have a couple more years and we will own it free and clear, then plan to start remodeling but man it is hard to wait sometimes. Glad to hear hay is cheap by you guys, it is pretty pricey by me this year, we have had so much rain that it has been hard to get it off the fields. I don't know about you guys but man what a good feeling it is to have all of your hay and to be ready for the winter.
That's a lot of free Christmas trees you dug up lol good job on clearing the lot out,and living room looking nicer every day and ty for the updates love it👍😊...
Thanks so much for persisting with the broken camera to put out a video. You guys are really getting a lot done on the place, it gives me ideas for my own place. Congrats on the corn harvest, LOL! Hey, those ears looked really good! Glad you were able to thwart the hawk attack, Doug.
I liked the way you guys formated this video. More talking and standing there looking at us. (eye to eye contact) Forcing you to use smaller clips and to create a montage of clips and to update us on everything going on, excellent. You guys are charming.
Thanks for the update! Sorry about your camera! I still enjoyed this video though because it was a little of everything. I'm so excited to see that your house is making good progress with cold weather coming. Your kids are so cute to watch in the videos. Looks like the chicken coop has worked out great!
Ashley you may want to wear a mask or a bandana when cleaning the coup so as not to breath in the particulate from the bird droppings, to protect your lungs.
Haven’t seen a video in a few days and was worried about you all. Hope your camera troubles are resolved soon. Will keep looking several times a day to see if there is a post. ❤️ from Alabama.
Great job!!!! Your patience and determination is admirable.... you are right... the weather this year has been horrible (I live in Ontario). You just keep plugging away and checking things off your list. Well done!
Doug, I like your little helper. Maverick is so cute being a big helper. I loved seeing my kids do the same thing with their Dad. Your little girl, Belle, is adorable and a big help to you and Ashley. You remind me of my husband and I raising our boys. Your living room is looking better and better. You are getting it done. Keep up the good job you are doing. The face on Maverick while holding the corn was hilarious.
Have you called to be sure it hasn’t come in? Don’t depend on them to call! I’ve ordered before from Lowe’s and things got mixed up and it had been in For 10 days!
I've missed your videos! The kiddos are beautiful and are so happy! The corn looked really good! Next year a bumper crop!!!lol The reno is coming along nicely. .....slow and steady with a million other things in - between! Hope your new camera comes in soon AND the door. It's so frustrating losing personal footage! Hope to see more video soon.
Been waiting for an update. Don’t know what I’ll do if y’all stop giving updates,lol. Your kiddos are so cute . Doug and Ashley you two have the most enjoyable videos of family life.
I miss Michigan- central Indiana sucks. lol I miss living in Northern Indiana because I could dip up to Michigan whenever I wanted. :) Have you ever thought about doing a recap video just to tell your whole story for people that have only been watching you a few months and who don't have time to go all the way back and watch all of your videos?
I love how much your personality seems to show in the comments. Especially the ones replying to people who try to tell you how to live your life, parent, or general personal stuff. I enjoy seeing your progress! Yall are great
Got a little nervous ... glad to see you back. You guys still look pretty cheerful, even with the camera issues and all the work you’re doing. That’s what I like, you never let things get you down ... at least what you sho us, lol. Loved the picture of Maverick at the end ... too cute. Best wishes and looking forward to the next one.
You guys get more done in a day then another family of "homesteaders" on another channel have done in a month!
No pressure....Yours is one of the UA-cam channels that I most look forward to seeing a new episode. Thanks for sharing your family with us.
Nice work. Just a thought, in the pasture you have some smaller pine trees. Maybe if you see a likely looking one, leave it there until Christmas. Come back out in December to cut it down. Free Christmas tree!
I thought the same thing.

That is a great question!! I would like to hear that story too!
Your children are so fortunate to grow up this way! They are able to learn so much from you two & from nature. To be able to explore outside & using their imagination. It makes my heart happy🙂 Y’all are getting so much done with the house!! Can’t wait for the next video😍
Doug, Ashley, we love what you're doing and want to help. Sent $10 to help with new camera expense. Thank you for making Michigan a better place. 🥰
I sent some as well. Hope this can really help you and your family make more amazing videos.
Thanks so much :D
Sometimes I go back and watch the videos from your first house that I haven't seen before, and I'm amazed at how different you both are now. Back then you looked very worried, now you both seem so happy and confident. It's lovely to see!
Ashley, please wear a mask when you clean that chicken coop.
You should put some insulation between Mavericks room and the living room, it's a small spot but man it'll save on the noise in that bedroom. Or some kind of soundproofing.
Don't the entry closet and the desk nook separate Maverick's room from the living room?
@@fancybrooks3156 yeah it might be the entry closet if it'll take care of any noise but there might be noise from there the other side is the media center and I don't think that's an issue because his closet is on the other side of that
Thanks for the update. Congrats on your 64k subscribers!!! You are loved by many!!! I sure have enjoyed following your family's journey.
Thanks!

You really let your personalities come through on this post. Thank you! It was great to see! I always love seeing your son helping his Dad. It’s just so precious. Happy Halloween 2020 to you both!
You need a goose to guard the chicken. They're very protective of the flock. You don't mess with a goose!
Hopefully the camera will get there fast ,some of us are addicted to your videos and are having withdrawals lol.
We just bought a house at the end of July- unfortunately its not our country property(not yet) but watching you motivates me to tackle some of the projects we want to do. So Im going to stop getting sucked into youtube and go get some things done! lol Thanks for sharing(and motivating!!) xo

You guys are so positive even when facing daunting jobs.
Missing yall! Hope the new camera is everything you hope it is and more! Cant wait to see your progress and your beautiful family again! :)
You both are fine examples of good work ethics.
To bad don’t have neighbors with goats? Lol. The amount of work you do, again very( precise) ITS AMAZING !
I’ve had run in with hawk and my cat. Way too close!
Save a few pines and take one each year for a Christmas tree. Great job on the chickens, no losses.
Great shot of Maverick with the corn. So cool. Thanks for the update and clips. Always fun to see the progress.
Hey Doug & Ashley,
I was wondering what your future livestock plans are? Have you thought about adding forested pigs to help you clean up some of your forest brush? I love watching you & the family growing your homestead & making progress. Thanks for sharing your lives & adventures with us.

Put the stove pipe straight up through the ceiling and roof. Avoid having to disturb the wall and soffit. It'll look great!
Agreed, and it will recapture more heat during those cold winters...
You mean dog or large goose? Ducks are pretty defenseless.
Ducks are lousy for protecting flocks. They usually get eaten first...
Make it a large goose. Smaller geese are vulnerable, too.
Our weather was too hot this year and I lost about 4 plants to wilt even though we ended up using our patio umbrella to shield them during the 100+ heatwave.

Frances Campbell good idea on the umbrella I might have to try that next year too
This was nice! I thought maybe your new camera had arrived. But you're so clever - made this one work so we had a video to watch! Cool!
I love seeing you guys laughing ...... I also love seeing the progress of your property ..... Keep up the great work you inspire me.
Way to persevere guys. Cute top Ashley! Sitting here during hurricane in Florida grateful to see your progress. Been hearing stuff hitting the roof so I might need to use some of your hints. God bless.
MsJWheels stay safe down there

no matter what I am watching... If I get a notification from OITC DIYF (whatever) ... I stop and turn to your channel
Same😁
Me three!!!😋😊😊😊
I just did for this video..watching another..zip..shut it down...came to Doug and Ashley(family)
Me too!!! I even interrupt The Fit Farmer for them.
Hi Doug, Ashley, Belle and Maverick , You all did a great job. Ashley you look so happy. Having your new home in the country the land the love for your children and the animal's plus the freedom is very important to you it's so nice to see. I too love the country. My grandchildren are homeschooling also they also stared September also. I really love your channel. Everything looks great you are doing such a beautiful job! Have a blessed week.❤
I tried as fast as I could to escape from my job lol just to watch y’all!!😂I’m dedicated to watching your guys every upload!! Stay motivated y’all!!💪🤠
Great to hear from you all. Been wondering what had happened to you. So glad to hear and see that your safe. Thanks for the updates!
After this 6 day wait, I hope the next video is an hour long!! Miss you guys!
I adore your family so much!! Those smiles when you were talking about Doug yelling had me cracking up! I had to rewind it just to see you two laugh again. Laughter is contagious ya know.? I was homeschooled too when I was growing up. I much prefer that to public schools personally. Your kids are gonna be amazing as adults with a pure upbringing like this. Great job!!!
I have enjoyed watching you tear the kitchen out. Now all there is is the frame standing. I can’t wait to see the siding go on and the kitchen go in.
You guys are awesome! I loved that you gave the corn to Belle and Maverick! What great parents you are.
Yay! So glad to see you guys! Been going thru diyf withdrawal! 🥰

It’s looking great guys!! Can’t wait to see what happens next!!
I love watching your little helper hand you nails. I have three GROWN sons, brings sweet memories to the fore. 😍
You guys in beast mode getting the homestead winter ready.
I homeschool my 3 kids and yesterday was their 1st day. I remember when I was in school, I started in Sept and in Calif too. My 2 youngest are in 5th grade and my oldest is a Jr in HS now. This is another great video.

Please, Ashley, put a mask on when cleaning the coop. Dry chicken poop can be very irritating for the nose and lungs.
I found your channel a couple weeks ago, really enjoy it. You are such a fun, down to earth family. Thank you for sharing your adventures!
Love the birdhouses in the background! Good framing!
I am repeating what a few others have said. We missed you over the Labor Day weekend. Now we know that your video camera was not working correctly. Good thing that you have a new one on order.

Our grandchildren have all started back to school so Belle is in good company with another 4th grader here. Keep healthy.
That widescreen shot was very cinematic
I’m like so many, I enjoy your vlogs so much. You’re such a great family and Belle and Maverick are just precious. May God continue to bless you. Diann
I enjoy your progress and your family.
Continue progressing. Great job. Thank you.

That's a lot of free Christmas trees you dug up lol good job on clearing the lot out,and living room looking nicer every day and ty for the updates love it👍😊...
So happy that you are making good progress. May your hearts and stomach's always be full. :)
You guys just make me smile and that's reason enough to continue watching. Thank you!
Please wear a mask when cleaning out the coop. There’s a lot of particulate matter that floats in the air.
Thanks so much for persisting with the broken camera to put out a video. You guys are really getting a lot done on the place, it gives me ideas for my own place. Congrats on the corn harvest, LOL! Hey, those ears looked really good! Glad you were able to thwart the hawk attack, Doug.

Looking good Doug and Ashley. The renovation is coming a long great.
Wishing you best of luck with everything, it looks like things are coming together well. Look forward to whatever video you can do. Take care.
Hi Doug Ashley Belle & Maverick,Such a busy little family.You are getting so much done & everything looks very good.😊
You must be reading my mind I was just thinking about you all and boom a video appears ty.
Thanks for the update! Sorry about your camera! I still enjoyed this video though because it was a little of everything. I'm so excited to see that your house is making good progress with cold weather coming. Your kids are so cute to watch in the videos. Looks like the chicken coop has worked out great!
I really enjoy your videos: I can’t wait to see the end result of your living room..
I enjoy your videos so much! You make a great team. You are always working hard, and you accomplish so much together. I’m really proud of you both!
Ashley you may want to wear a mask or a bandana when cleaning the coup so as not to breath in the particulate from the bird droppings, to protect your lungs.
Lovely update as usual. Hope you get your door soon. A lot of hard work yet ahead of you both, but seems you are capable of anything.
Ashley, you look beautiful. The new blouse is nice. Progress is great.
It's so pretty!
It always makes me feel really good to watch you guys and the kids working your way through each day with positivity and happiness.🥰
Haven’t seen a video in a few days and was worried about you all. Hope your camera troubles are resolved soon. Will keep looking several times a day to see if there is a post. ❤️ from Alabama.
Great job!!!! Your patience and determination is admirable.... you are right... the weather this year has been horrible (I live in Ontario). You just keep plugging away and checking things off your list. Well done!
Great video! Can we see the kitchen soon. I dont remember what it looks like. Pam
Doug, I like your little helper. Maverick is so cute being a big helper. I loved seeing my kids do the same thing with their Dad.
Your little girl, Belle, is adorable and a big help to you and Ashley. You remind me of my husband and I raising our boys.
Your living room is looking better and better. You are getting it done. Keep up the good job you are doing.
The face on Maverick while holding the corn was hilarious.
Have you called to be sure it hasn’t come in? Don’t depend on them to call! I’ve ordered before from Lowe’s and things got mixed up and it had been in For 10 days!
We haven't called, but last time we were in the store we asked about it and it wasn't in yet. We'll find out again soon if it's in.
I've missed your videos! The kiddos are beautiful and are so happy! The corn looked really good! Next year a bumper crop!!!lol The reno is coming along nicely. .....slow and steady with a million other things in - between! Hope your new camera comes in soon AND the door. It's so frustrating losing personal footage! Hope to see more video soon.
Been waiting for an update. Don’t know what I’ll do if y’all stop giving updates,lol.
Your kiddos are so cute .
Doug and Ashley you two have the most enjoyable videos of family life.
Cute Maverick helping his daddy. Watching you all working the field reminds me how my family would all be outside helping with yard work.
I miss Michigan- central Indiana sucks. lol I miss living in Northern Indiana because I could dip up to Michigan whenever I wanted. :) Have you ever thought about doing a recap video just to tell your whole story for people that have only been watching you a few months and who don't have time to go all the way back and watch all of your videos?
I love how much your personality seems to show in the comments. Especially the ones replying to people who try to tell you how to live your life, parent, or general personal stuff.
I enjoy seeing your progress! Yall are great
Market the pines as U-Cut "Charlie Brown Christmas trees" Bet you'd sell out.
I enjoyed the outdoor footage, glad your chickens have faired so well. You are really making progress in the house, that's got to feel good.
You guy always have a great attitude.
Thanks so much for sharing!
Technology is great when it works!
👍♥️🦊
Got a little nervous ... glad to see you back. You guys still look pretty cheerful, even with the camera issues and all the work you’re doing. That’s what I like, you never let things get you down ... at least what you sho us, lol.
Loved the picture of Maverick at the end ... too cute. Best wishes and looking forward to the next one.
