We have lived a similar life next door in Wa. Built our own home in 1996 on our little farm Raised 5 homeschool kiddos. We Now enjoy our grandkids in the same home we played with their parents. Blending yesterday's memories with today's joys is simply priceless. We are now in our 60's and are still building! Pole barn with apartment for our daughter, last year and new shop for hubby this year! Enjoy watching your channel, keep up the good work.
I want this for our kid's. People think we're nuts, but we really want to keep them close. Eventually one will inherit this house and my husband and I will build a small A frame down back further into the woods with the most incredible view. We really want all our kid's and grandkid's to live here off this land with us. ❤
@@GoodSimpleLiving Thank you for sharing. 😃👏🏻Those lavender butterflies!!! Wow! That was astounding! Beautiful. I thought they were digitally added into the video, for effect, until I saw their shadows, on the rocks. Unreal. Glad y'all had a wonderful day together. Blessings in FOLLOWING CHRIST.🙏🏻👣👣
Your ending really hit home me because after my divorce I then became a Single Dad to 3 great kids. I focused everything I had on them to teach them that at least 1 parent did care. Now that they are older, they all tell me how much they have learned from me and have Thanked me it all. As I said, it hit home big time, Thank You ! Tim, from Western NY State
We as husband and wife always watch your channel and because we are a very tight family of 1 girl and 3 boys we can resonate with you and your family. My husband passed away suddenly last week. at the end of this video with your words of wisdom as we called them I just changed the sentiments to a man husband/Dad and not Mother. It brought fresh tears to my eyes. Thank you for reading
I am so sorry for your immense loss, my heart truly breaks for you. Yes, his fatherhood will forever live on in the lives of your children ❤️ praying for your family.
My Wife, of nearly 42 years, passed away in January 2024, we were Married in Feb 1982. When she was diagnosed with NHL-Cancer, December 2021. She was already Stage-3 with 30 tumors. Radiation & Chemo, killed 29 of 30. The last One wouldn't let go. Thank You God, she is no longer in pain! Blessed me with her ❤️ and 2 Children. Add 2 Grand Children. My Wife & Your Husband? We WILL SEE THEM AGAIN! 😊 😃 😀 MOTHERS DAY! You are not alone.
I agree wholeheartedly! I think you have a beautiful way with words and conveying your heart. You could write for all ages! I am 63 and I would certainly read it! ❤ 📖 😉
I was so worried about your family not having a video on Saturday, May 18th. I kept checking every day.. guess I'm obsessed with watching your journeys, family, loss of Kenji, blood, sweat & tears.. Thank you for all you do & for bringing us along. God bless, stay safe, & Enjoy !! PS.. As most women would say, which we could clone your hubby, since that's not possible, thanks for sharing him with all of us.
We left Montana 45 years ago to begin our work life journey but every year we have returned and our first stop is always the Falls. We have watched it change over the years but when I stand along the banks of the river I know I'm home.
So beautiful. It brought tears to my eyes. Losing my son at the age of 38 yrs old in November and my daughter having terminal cancer at the age of 36 yrs old makes you definitely grateful for any memories you had and have. Every single one counts cause you never know when you dont get any more. I love your beautiful family. So sweet.
I didn't cry this time but I got the warm fuzzies. The Song says "Sunrise, sunset quickly flow the days, one season following another laden with happiness and tears". You are right Melissa those memories remain for us and in them. Have a blessed week and be safe and prosper.
As I sit here in a remote campground where I'm spending my spring, summer and fall.I have said goodbye to my family as they make their way home for another work week. Your words of wisdom filled my heart. Because I too believe that motherhood is the most important job and now a Grammy of nine...well that's priceless! My little piece of land looks over a pond,with a field of green, and the backdrop of pines, beyond is a fast pace river. The only thing that could make it better is your mountians! May the God of peace rain down over you and your family! I'll watch you for ever!!
After building 2.5 "real" buildings, assembling and outfitting a horse shelter, doing some internal and customization on a barn, and knocking together an assortment of outbuildings, pens and shelters - who would have thought that a mere 5' to 10' breezeway would have been quite the challenge and work it has proven to be.
Ahh, so true for us moms! And your right about the waterfalls. A hike to see waterfalls for me is about 4/5 hours away by car, not including the hike. And its nowhere as pretty as your waterfa!l. So I just enjoy the nearby lakes. And get into them at a comfortable temperature. That's southern Arizona for you. Nice! 😊 God bless yo all.
I live in north centeral PA. I love spring, watching nature coming back to life. Taking in everything that YAHUAH has created. The views from my home and all around us are simply breathtaking. I just wanna cry happy tears because of the joy that's rushing through my soul. So much of this world would be so beautiful if people would take better care of it. Your hike looked amazing and seeing that water did take my breath away. I'm not sure that i would wanna leave once you got me there. ❤❤❤❤
Great family, great video. Reminded me of when my daughter was just a little poo poo knicker at the end. The strange things you remember fondly with the perspective of time that was a burden when you where in the middle of it. 😂😅 Was my job every morning to get my daughter up. Being a fisherman I was already up. Loved getting her up and cleaning her. Was horrified at times at the "amazing exploding baby"... lol. How a 24 pound little kid can produce that much raw product still is an mind boggling feat. 😅 Thanks for the great videos. Aloha.
I get Jeremy's fear of heights, you definitely wouldn't like the carrick-a-rede rope bridge here in northern Ireland, love the cold water dips, my husband and myself love doing cold water swimming it's good for the mind and soul 🥶
What a beautiful tribute to yourself Melissa and to all mothers about watching their children grow up quickly (sticky fingers & chubby faces ... reaching out a hand to hold really got me). Cherish every moment with them as they grow. Happy belated Mother's Day and to a good Memorial Day. Thanks to all the Veterans for your service. Love from NE Pennsylvania ❤
Being a parent is Long days, but very short years!! My daughter is 52, beautiful Granddaughters are 27 and 25!! Being a Mother is/was my greatest gift!!
HI Jeremy and Melissa and FAMILY hi this is Denise from Oswego I am so glad that you guys got your package safe and sound and I’m glad that you love it I would like to see where you have put everything that I sent you and what you did with everything I hope the little cross is out in the garden with your dog Kenji and I hope the little plaque and a little thing with his picture on it that you can either use for a flag or a pillow case it’s somewhere special in your house so I hope you guys are all doing well and getting things done that need to be taken care of on your home state so take care and may God bless you and keep you all safe from one of your viewers here in Oswego New York from Denise. PS I truly do love each and everyone of you from the bottom of my heart I wish I had a family is amazing as you guys and I wish I could come and visit You all Someday but sorry I I am scared of flying I do not like planes or trains or buses or any other vehicles if I can’t make it there myself then I don’t go anywhere because of my phobias but I would love to come and visit you be able just to get the heck out of Oswego New York and go somewhere where it’s peaceful and quiet and just have a couple of weekends away from all the hell that I’m around so I hope and pray that you guys take care and Jeremy and Melissa please take care and keep up the good work on the house and the rest of the project that you have going on and know that I love you guys from the bottom of my heart and I’m praying for you every single day from Denise-5-25-2024-✝️🐕🦺✝️🐕🦺✝️🐕🦺❤️
Glad you had a nice Mothers day, beautiful hike. Happy Memorial Day weekend to everyone. I am proud to celebrate all the Veterans that have sacrifice their lives for my freedoms.
Melissa, your "wrap ups" are simply beautiful and inspiring. As Ive said before, they shoud end up as a book one day. You are a gifted writer, unbelievable wife and wonderful mother. Praise God for what He has made you. You're a blessing to us all. 🙏🙏❤❤
Melissa you said it so eloquently. As the Mom of an adult,all I can say, is they still need us,just differently. If we raised them well.. then they are independent because we gave them wings. Hopefully, you too will find your best friend’s instead of your babies!🙏🙏🙏Blessing’s
To all of you who raised them well, even the gr-child/ren, mine after his Daddy's passing, but who as adults have chosen to follow the ways of the sinful world and its dark side; please be encouraged and comforted. God sees the love and effort you put in to raising them right ,and he sees the tears you cry daily for their adult choices that are the complete opposite to everything you taught them. You areloved just as deeply by our Heavenly Father and pray your day will be blessed by God bcos you truly made the effort and sacrifice but as yet have not reached the rewards as those Mums whose kids stayed on the path they were raised on. I pray abundant Blessings on your lives and Holy Spirit power to comfort and lighten your load of sorrow as you pray yours will choose to be a Pridigal child and return firstly to their Heavenly Father and to you their earthly Mother/Nana.🇦🇺 🤗✝️💞🙏👌👍👏✌️👊🇺🇸
Don't be so hard on yourselves with the sweet treats - everything is ok in moderation. Not a big deal and frankly you both deserve it with all the work you have and continue to accomplish - now....Jeremy, you should never steal another's cookie lol. Blessing from hot and muggy Toronto
Great video! Enjoy every moment because you are 100% correct it is fleeting. Mine are all grown and gone with their own families. I don't see them often, and it breaks my heart! You have a beautiful family! ❤
Hell my beautiful family ❤️!! I sure missed you last week but it makes me love and appreciate today with you even more. Melissa I always love your commentary at the end of each video but the words you shared for Mother’s Day rang true to the hearts of mothers everywhere. God trusted us with our children that we would love, nurture and cherish them all the days of our lives. Being a mother is such an honor but yet it’s the hardest job there is. I hope today you are all well and as always I carry each of you fondly in my heart and always in my prayers🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻. Btw I saw the podcast the other day with Willie Robertson!! Great job!! I love watching your New World Old Soul grow the way it is❤️
Beautiful sentiment on being a Mother for all your days, eloquently put, really enjoyed seeing the rivers & mountains you live in a great place & your Kitchen counter top choices should be fab! thank you watching from wet UK 👏👏🌟🌷🌸🌷🏔🌊☀️🏘🥳
Oh my goodness, yesterday the 24th, my hubby and I, son and DIL took a trip up to the Gathering Place for lunch. Oh, so good! Side note: couldn't have any of those delicious looking sweet goodies, but lunch was wonderful. Our adventure continued on into Montana and the Kootenai Falls. What a spectacular treat. As I was in each place, I had wondered if the Souza Family would pop in. Guess I missed you all a couple weeks late. Thanks for mentioning both of these places, it definitely is something you don't want to miss.
I know Neveah has her own channel and I've enjoyed her content but they come out infrequently and I would love to see her more and these with the family. She's beautiful to the core and a sweet addition to the GSL videos. Blessings 🙏🙏
💗 So beautifully said Mellisa. The honor of your life❣️ I think how wonderful it will be for your family to be able to listen to your heartfelt words of gratitude and love ( no matter how much time has gone by). My Mom passed away 30 years ago and how I would treasure to hear her thoughts and watch a family video. Treasures to behold ♥️
What a beautiful river! Your family should go rafting on that! Fyi...I always love the narrative at the end of your videos, it's so heartfelt and meaningful. ❤😊❤
This video brought back my own family memories at Kootenai Falls. I have (pre digital) pics of my kids on that hike. Even the same memory of walking one daughter across tha bridge - due to her (Understandable) fear of heights. The kids were teens and all have kids of thier own - one kid - has furry kids (kittys) - So appreciate seeing this for my own memories. I hope it is ok that I took a few screenshots of the views (without your family in of course) My pre-digital pics are so poor compared to what I saw - love your updates - Jerry
We use to do the same thing to my late husband, Bob was totally afraid of heights. the bridges used to terrify him. But my daughter and I would get in the middle and swing it back-and-forth and he would almost need for us to come and hold his hand across and we would laugh. Great memories.
Im fasting this morning for a Dr appointment ... that soup sounds sooooo good. Lol! And i would have/have done the same thing. Heehee! "The soup is LAVA!" is my new favorite saying. I appreciate how real and endearing you all are. P.s. give that mow-mow a pat on the head for me please. 😊
In completing your connection from the home to the garage. I was noticing all the detail in the eaves of your home absolutely lovely all the detail you’ve put into your home the doors, the lighting, and yes, the shiplap 😉. Watching Eli play with the sheep with the box on its head. And as always, he hast to do his close! The GATHERING PLACE”! , the pastries there look wonderful. And yes, Jeremy it was well-deserved. 👏🏼. I love to watch the both of you the smiles on your face and the look in your eyes. You have such sincere joy and love for each other and especially the respect. My friends can’t understand why I wanna move to Montana so I sent them this video of the river. And they’ll understand why I fell in love with Idaho all those years ago HAPPY MEMORIAL WEEKEND TO THE SOUZA FAMILY 🇺🇸
You guys are the best... I really appreciate your family... You really deserve everything (blessings) that comes your way... Yah Bless from Dubai (from an expat also living the dream)... 🙏🙏🙏 👍😎👍
A fun, busy ,visit! Thanks!!! Good job on the roof..! Those pasteries..cookie.. HOT soup!! Lol!! Now that's how ya ... " Go to town"!!!!!!!! ⚡️🇺🇸👍🧙♂️🐺🤙🇺🇸⚡️
Love watching your UA-cam channel - brings me so much pleasure every Sunday morning. I live in the stunning Deep South of NZ (now winter) but where you live is (if possible) more spectacular!
Ciao grandi lavoratori, la vostra famiglia così unita è un bellissimo esempio, siete dei bravi genitori che trasmettono ai figli i veri valori della vita. Vi abbraccio con il cuore❤❤❤❤❤❤

I was noticing all the detail in the eaves of your home absolutely lovely all the detail you’ve put into your home the doors, the lighting, and yes, the shiplap 😉. Watching Eli play with the sheep with the box on its head. And as always, he hast to do his close! The GATHERING PLACE”! , the pastries there look wonderful. And yes, Jeremy it was well-deserved. 👏🏼. I love to watch the both of you the smiles on your face and the look in your eyes. You have such sincere joy and love for each other and especially the respect. My friends can’t understand why I wanna move to Montana so I sent them this video of the river. And they’ll understand why I fell in love with Idaho all those years ago

If I could put into words, but I can't, Family is everything. We enjoy your channel.
Love watching your UA-cam channel - brings me so much pleasure every Sunday morning. I live in the stunning Deep South of NZ (now winter) but where you live is (if possible) more spectacular!
Gosh what a beautiful part of the world you're living in!! So peaceful and in one with nature ❤
Absolutely love this! Love those kids while you still can.❤️
