Thank you so much The Newby's. You honestly don't know how much it means to me to see my name on your newsletter. I appreciate you selecting my name to appear on it. It's been a pleasure to watch you all on your incredible transformation of your homestead.Merry Christmas to you and to your lovely subscribers 🎄Now it's time to sit back and watch this weeks episode. All the best for 2025🥰
Hello friend. We have to thank you for all of your lovely support, it was a pleasure being able to spotlight you in this weeks newsletter. Thank you for being here for it all ❤️🙏🏼😃🏡🇵🇹
Reality tv is nothing. Most of these shows are edited, managed by directors, and they control what we should see. Your videos are the real thing. You just present what happens as they happen. The conversations are always real, feelings are real as expressed by the two boys. Your obi is as much part of the family as everyone else. Kindness, honesty, and love is always there. Congratulations!❤❤❤
Awwww, congratulations!!!!!!! I have been watching for years, and seeing everything come to fruition is so exciting!! The boys are just amazing little gentlemen, and it's a privilege for me to be a part of seeing them grow. If anyone new watching, if you want to really know about Tara and Jon, watch their boys. Live this channel!! Stay safe. Newbys have absolutely a marvelous holiday season, and we will be watching the progress!!!
@@mariagillinson8527 Amen to that my neighbours were Portuguese they had a sense of family and hard work, Italians are known to be great builders. FELIZ NATAL AUGURI BUON NATALE🙏🙏🙏🙏🕊️💓🥰
It's all so very exciting! And, ahhh, those precious boys...getting to be in the middle of it all and having so many experiences at such a young age. Sawyer's calm and patient manner, taking it all in, at his age, is special to watch! Desejo a você um feliz natal e um próspero ano novo! ❤
Hi Tara and John when you add sand and water to cement it’s called CONCRETE so there will be no confusion. I loved Portugal my mum and dad lived there for four years until my dear father got cancer so they sold there house and came back to the UK we’re sadly he passed away 7 months later. Nice 14:18 to see them poring the footing’s for your house I hope it won’t get any colder or they won’t be able to concrete . Regards Andy from Felixstowe UK.
Oh, it must be so frustrating for John to be watching as he is so handy himself. I can imagine the first pour of cement (nice editing Tara!). Exciting times! Love the hats on the boys, they look so sweet like this in their little worktrousers. Yes, lovely episode! Have a really nice Christmas!
Day #1 of cement and Crusoe asks, “When is the house going to be ready?” So precious! Merry Christmas to you all. May the new year be filled with many more wonderful memories. Love from California. ❤
Thanks for the video really enjoyed watching the builders putting down the cement Thanks to them too Tara love your colorful jerseys sawyer is too sweet putting his hands in his jump suit to warm both the boys are just to precious Thanks to you and John for taking us on your adventures
I’m trying to imagine what the house will look like in a year from now. I’m looking forward to seeing it grow and become a part of the beautiful landscape you’ve been creating.
Good Sunday morning Newby family, FELIZ NATAL to all our Portuguese friends. So much memories seeing your house being built, here daughter of construction worker who worked over 30 years building homes everywhere here. From this Canadian to you Tara from South Africa, cheers the work has begun and day by day you will have great JOY seeing your dream home come through without snow or ice (we get lots here). Merry Christmas to all, JOY of the season is special for without the Lord we cannot do nothing. God bless you all. 🙏🕊️👑💖🥰👱👶🐶🏘️🏡🌄🎄🪔🇵🇹🇨🇦
What a lovely comment Joanne! As a person born in Portugal, but having lived her life here in Canada (Ontario), I with you a very MERRY CHRISTMAS! I totally get the snow and ice, we have had our fair share in the last week!..Oh well, a white Christmas is on the cards!! May the Lord bless you in 2025.
@Laura-g1c1l Dear Laura and Canadian friend living here in winter is not easy, I am in the province of Quebec, having European parents who came here to start new life many years ago brought all the richness we see today, great to know you and happy we are neighbours indeed a very Merry Christmas to you and yours and for a very bright, healthy, warm 2025 to you also.
You represent what I taught my children: "Fly high in your dreams, with your feet well grounded"! A phrase they never forgot! Even set them and made they listen to a portuguese music sung by the great Jorge Palma - "Senta-te aí", meanning "Sit here", a father telling the son to follow his dreams! Very beautiful song, that my children love to pieces! Love your channel, so much to do with me ! Have a great Christmas, have a lot of bacalhau, and conventual desserts! Love from Lisbon!
Fascinating stuff is building a home, especially love the construction team’s dedication, cleanliness, and expertise. Happy holidays to all and 2025 looks to be very exciting
To John, Tara, Crusoe, Sawyer and all your wonderful friends and neighbours there in Portugal….may I wish you all a Very Happy Christmas and a fantastic New Year 🎄🎉🎄 I have so enjoyed following along with you all since way back when Crusoe was but a baby and thanks for sharing your lives with us all. Best wishes and ❤ to you all and see you in 2025 Much love Julie 😊
Hi Julie. Thank you for this lovely comment and for all your support over the years! It truly means more than the world to us. We wish you a very Merry Christmas too ❤️❤️
Aww loved hearing Crusoe at the end 'when will the house be ready?'!! Well I never thought I'd be so riveted watching cement mixing and pouring!😆The skill needed to operate the crane and the bucket etc.... I'm not sure when these videos are filmed before we see them, but I wish you all a very happy Christmas, wherever you'll be, in Portugal this year? And I look forward to 2025 and seeing your new home rise up from the ground, all very exciting 🎄🎇😊
He asked the million dollar question Sarah 😂 we are pretty much on track, what you see now is what happened this past week. We have some fun plans for Christmas friend, we will share more about that soon. Thanks for being here. We wish you a very Merry Christmas too ❤️❤️
@@TheNewbys Well I hope you can have a good break over the festive period, and recharge your batteries, (if two little boys will let you!) and then full steam ahead next year😄
Watching John and the boys have similar excitement is beautiful. You are the calmest one today! John is showing great restraint in all that is going on. Thos is a proud moment in your journey. First cement! Bravo.
After all machinery on drive. It looks as if more new gravel will be needed at end of build. Wish you had lots of River rock to use… but so hard to find an forget buying WOW$$$. From Memphis, Tennessee USA
Hi, guys. Had been watching your videos for a while now, and just wanted to wish you all a very happy Christmas and a wonderful 2025. Congrats on all your projects and stay grateful and healthy. Love always. It will all together eventually!!! very exiting!!!!!
I just love your excitement at the first pour! It really is a wonderful Christmas present for your family. Here’s hoping that Christmas 2025 sees you in your new home. Merry Christmas and a Happy and safe New Year to you. Thank you for sharing your journey and community with us. ❤
Watching from Nova Scotia Canada. Just warming up watching the show after snowblowing for a few hours. We had 28 cm of snow overnight and -5C out today. Perfect timing for a White Christmas. Happy Holidays!
Thank you for the years of sharing. May you and all the wonderful Portuguese people you have met,ha a happy and blessed Christmas. And to all the subscribers .Bless you all❤😊❤
Best thing I did for myself and my sanity is having a clean spotless garage. Stairs into the house from the garage. Unloading the kids and groceries into the house kept everything organized and clean especially on wet or hot days.
The hand mixed cement pivot was a surprise-thought your driveway was up to the task- what a turn of events. Everyone pitched in and made it happen. This solid foundation will hold your house for centuries. You must be giddy with elation with it all.
Soooo cool to be with you on this epic journey. And boy will the lads ( yes al 3...) have memories to share come the years within this new build. One quick note. You mix cement ( usualy portland cement) with water and aggregates- sand/stone. To make a product called concrete. Cement is just the one chemical part... not what you poor.. rant over.
Obie’s instincts as a herding dog keeps him with the children. I admire the dump trucks in Portugal. They can dump from both sides and the back. I have never seen one like that in the U.S. Too bad. I love watching building so don’t apologize. You are including us. No matter what you are doing, I look forward to spending time with you and family in Portugal and on your trips around the world
I am so excited to see this part happening for you guy's. It brings back so many good memories of when my husband and I built our house in the mtns. We did a lot of the work ourselves. But this part we did have the pro's too. I hope you have a wonderful and very Merry Christmas.
GOOD EVENING TO MY PORTUGUESE FRIENDS TARA JOHN CRUSOE SAWYER OBI AND JOEL . THIS IS SO EXCITING WATCHING YOU BUILD YOUR NEW HOMESTEAD WATCHING THE BOYS GROW . I HAVE BEING WITH YOU BEFORE CRUSOE WAS BORN . WOULD LOVE TO WISH THE NEWBYS JOELS FAMILY AND MARIO A VERY HAPPY CHRISTMAS AND A SPECIAL NEW YEAR. WE HAVE HAD OUR FIRST FROST IN IRELAND HOPE YOU HAVE A WONDERFUL WEEK MARGARET LYNCH SOUTHERN IRELAND
Your description of how electricity is distributed really help me understand a bit more about that too, so thank you! I knew that they turn up the distribution for certain popular tv show ad breaks in the uk, for when all the kettles would go on! Also, learnt more about radon! Such an exciting time for you all as a family! Wishing you all a lovely Christmas and a fabulous new year 2025! x
What can I say dear Newbys, you make my day and Sunday is a better day. Merry Christmas to you all .. John & Tara, Crusoe & Sawyer, Joao & Mario and Obi of course. As always all the best from Chile 🇨🇱 🤗✨✨✨
Congratulations on the beginning of the house building, it’s going to be beautiful, Happy Holidays from this Portuguese and Italian family to yours.🎅🏼🎄
Ola my beautiful family so excited this going very well. I don’t believe this construction go take two years. Merry Christmas 🎄 to you all and New year bring your dreams to reality. Lots of love.See you soon.
Merry Christmas Newbys! What a wonderful gift of a new house! You'll always remember this Holiday as the one. I hope you can find a place in the concrete to mark the year and possibly hand prints.😄
Wow Tara & John the house size looks enormous❤❤❤❤ so exciting to b realising ur dream build house coming together & with such talented knowledgeable builders ❤❤❤❤❤enjoy can't wait to see how it all develops ❤❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🐶🐶🐶🐶🐾🐾🐾🙏🙏🙏
Loved it when Crusoe asked when the house would be ready; shades of are we there yet😂. Laughed when Tara said it was cold; it’s -16C here this morning. Wishing your family the happiest of Christmas holidays. 🇨🇦❤️🇨🇦
Qué emocionante es!, cuánto aprendizaje y diversión para los pequeños y Obie, y para mí! Os deseo muy Feliz Navidad y un año lleno de salud e ilusión. 🎉🎉❤❤un abrazo para todos ❤❤❤❤

It's like the phoenix rising from the ashes seeing the footings being done. John,Tara, Crusoe and Sawyer hope you have a lovely Christmas and see you soon ❤
I’m so incredibly happy for you guys and I have to say I’m glad you both are getting a ‘rest’ from the back breaking work you have been doing for the past few years. Videography seems a little easier on your BONES! Not that anything you do is easy, certainly not-the boys, dog, house, garden, pool, bamboo, bees, chickens, cooking….on and on! Hugs from California!!
Thanks Kelly. We are so excited for the break. It’s going to be strange not releasing episodes but we will be back before we know it. Thanks so much for watching ❤️🙏🏼😃🏡🇵🇹
Five minutes after watching, I'm still chuckling at Crusoe saying, "When's the house going to be ready?" LOL Have a wonderful Christmas, Newbys and everyone!
It's taking shape guys, what a beautiful thing to watch and to see and hear all the excitement you are sharing with us. Had no idea about granite and radiation levels though, it can't be that high though or can it?? Anyway, really happy for you all that the build has started. Wishing you all a very happy Xmas with all the best wishes!!! Cheers Bert 🙏🏻❤🎄
So much progress on the new house since the last video with the pouring of cement. There is no turning back now. I didn't think cement would set at that low a temperature. But I stand corrected. And now a break for the holiday season. From our family to yours, all the best for a wonderful Christmas and happy New Year. Feliz Natal, Feliz Navidad, and Muve neKisimusi (I hope I got the right Tara).

I love your closing with Crusoe saying “HeyDad, when is the house going to be ready”? Brilliant closing.
He’s got the million dollar question friend 😂
So funny😅
Its the equivalent of the car trip question, "Dad, when are we going to be there?"

Soooo cool to be with you on this epic journey. And boy will the lads ( yes al 3...) have memories to share come the years within this new build.
One quick note. You mix cement ( usualy portland cement) with water and aggregates- sand/stone. To make a product called concrete. Cement is just the one chemical part... not what you poor.. rant over.
Thanks for clarifying friend 🙌🏼🙏🏼
Obie’s instincts as a herding dog keeps him with the children.
I admire the dump trucks in Portugal. They can dump from both sides and the back. I have never seen one like that in the U.S. Too bad.
I love watching building so don’t apologize. You are including us. No matter what you are doing, I look forward to spending time with you and family in Portugal and on your trips around the world

Happy holidays! ❤️❤️
Congratulations and Happy Holidays 🤩
Happy holidays!
I’m so incredibly happy for you guys and I have to say I’m glad you both are getting a ‘rest’ from the back breaking work you have been doing for the past few years. Videography seems a little easier on your BONES! Not that anything you do is easy, certainly not-the boys, dog, house, garden, pool, bamboo, bees, chickens, cooking….on and on! Hugs from California!!
Thanks Kelly. We are so excited for the break. It’s going to be strange not releasing episodes but we will be back before we know it. Thanks so much for watching ❤️🙏🏼😃🏡🇵🇹
Five minutes after watching, I'm still chuckling at Crusoe saying, "When's the house going to be ready?" LOL Have a wonderful Christmas, Newbys and everyone!
The million dollar question Avon 😂😂
Happy they have barrels of water on site. I love this company, very organized. Amazing
They are amazing Maria!
Wishing you all a very merry Christmas 🎄 and a happy New year. Take care and stay safe.🎉🌲🥂😊
Happy holidays Yvonne ❤️
Hallo Newby’s I wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy Great Lovely New Year ❤
Thank you so much friend. We wish you a very Merry Christmas too ❤️❤️
It's taking shape guys, what a beautiful thing to watch and to see and hear all the excitement you are sharing with us. Had no idea about granite and radiation levels though, it can't be that high though or can it?? Anyway, really happy for you all that the build has started. Wishing you all a very happy Xmas with all the best wishes!!! Cheers Bert 🙏🏻❤🎄
Thanks Bert and happy Christmas friend. Yes we need to be careful with Radon in these parts it can build up and be tricky! ❤️❤️
This Is all so exciting. Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄
Thanks friend. We wish you a very Merry Christmas too ❤️❤️
A good start on the laying of foundations of the house, congratulations! Merry Christmas to you and your family♦♥
Thank you Anne. We wish you a very Merry Christmas too ❤️❤️
So much progress on the new house since the last video with the pouring of cement. There is no turning back now. I didn't think cement would set at that low a temperature. But I stand corrected. And now a break for the holiday season. From our family to yours, all the best for a wonderful Christmas and happy New Year. Feliz Natal, Feliz Navidad, and Muve neKisimusi (I hope I got the right Tara).
Thanks Rick! Same to you friend. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Like the first corner stone of Westminster Abbey, Buckingham Palace, Blenheim Place and Chatsworth. The Newby home 🏡 for the next 500 years. Congrats
Epic!! Thanks Marjorie!! ❤️❤️❤️
