    Hey guys! Creating this video has felt long overdue and it finally seemed like the right time to do so. It took a little longer than I originally anticipated to go through all of the footage, but I am so glad I did! It's crazy to see where we started and where we are today. I just wanted to let you know we'll be back next week with a normal video. Until then, thanks for watching!
    Love,

THANK YOU, not only for the great video of the fantastic job you guys did, but for sharing your Beautiful Growing Family with us. It was as much fun watching the kids, as watching the building. Very few people can do what you did. You have to become a Carpenter, Plumber, Electrician, Installer, Painter, Welder-Everything. You have to address the problems of Water, Power, Waste Disposal. Before anyone thinks of going off-grid, they should watch your video. When I was a teenager, my dad built a two story, 3 bedroom Colonial House all by himself. Now, that I'm a senior, I think I appreciate what he did more now, than I ever did then. Again, Thank You for sharing part of your lives.

    Watching home builds reminds me of where I was just a few years ago, no savings, no IRA, nothing. I was really worried about my future and thought owning a home was out of reach. But after three years of hard work and smart investing, I grew my savings to $350k and finally bought a home. If I can do it, anyone can. Graham David Fullerton was very helpful in making this dream a reality by investing towards a particular goal.

    I knew you would make this video at some point.
    So many memories.
    I got hooked near the beginning, not because of the work itself, but because of the two of you.
    The love and respect and support you have for each other is rare in young people today,
    and it is so encouraging to watch.
    Through ups and downs, rain and shine, making and remakings, you two have stayed positive,
    appreciative, and funny.
    What character you have, and share.
    If was fun to watch this again, but my biggest take away is this ...
    When the munchkins get older, and you watch as a family,
    this video will show your children what hard work and perseverance truly is,
    how it is possible to stay positive regardless of circumstances and setbacks,
    that hard work really does pay off, what is truly valuable in life (love, respect,
    teamwork - not just "stuff"), and that relationships are so much more valuable than money
    and material items.
    You are setting an example of what is important for your children,
    who will have values instilled in them as they grow, and make them role models
    for their generation of what "good" is.
    You are teaching them (and many of us) that with hard work and persistence,
    you can accomplish whatever you decide you want to do.
    Since watching you two, I have taken up a couple of projects
    that I never thought I could accomplish.
    It is slow going, but I am plugging away and will achieve the goals I have set.
    And as your journey began and you have continued to share with us,
    many have seen and learned these lessons along the way, as well.
    In this day and age, I am not sure whether or not you two are considered "stars",
    but if you are, I appreciate that you have remained on your course, and stayed humble,
    real, appreciative of each other and your accomplishments.
    That speaks volumes about your personalities and your hearts.
    So, I thank you for allowing me into your lives, and letting me travel your journey with you.
    I look forward to seeing what the future brings for your family.

It's truly rare to see such a positive and supportive relationship, and it's been inspiring to watch.
      I completely agree that this video will be such a valuable resource for their children as they grow up, and for anyone who watches it, really. The lessons of hard work, perseverance, positivity, and the importance of relationships are so valuable, and it's wonderful to see this family embodying those values so fully.
      Like you, I've also been inspired by their journey and have taken on some projects of my own that I never thought I could accomplish. Watching Spenser and Mack has been a reminder that anything is possible with hard work and persistence.
      I also appreciate how humble and down-to-earth this family has remained throughout their journey. They truly are role models, not just for their children, but for all of us who have had the privilege of watching their story unfold.

    What an accomplishment! What a tribute that your children and grandchildren can watch and admire. Of everyone on UA-cam, you are the most impressive. To deal with all the heavy stuff just with the two of you, to be able to learn about plumbing, electricity, structural integrity...and let's not forget the drywalling. Just amazing. I often wonder how much you enjoy living in this beautiful house of yours, especially with all the hardships you endured to get here.

    69 Trips around the Sun in my Earth suit I have watched years and years of This Old House, Bob Vila shows, and Mike Holmes episodes among dozens of other Home Improvement shows for 45 plus years, but you 2 Captured my Heart and Soul with your Amazing journey. You drew me in as your project came to life before my eyes and I Truly felt I was there with you both.
    THANK YOU !!!!!
    I Loved watching your project unfold as you told the story of your Dream Home coming to life. Your dogs and animals added warmth to the story telling and when your children came along OMG I had to reach for the tissue box.
    Loved the sound track throughout your journey.
    I have never seen you guys before watching this tonight and I want to say, I need to say, I AM SO PROUD OF BOTH OF YOU !!!!
    You guys are Truly an Inspiration.
    With Love

    First View! I've been following your channel for about 2 years now and I wanted to tell you both your an amazing inspiration! I was in the middle of renovating an 1850's farmhouse in Western New York when I found your channel. You both become my role models; trying new things, having grace when things go wrong, and always keeping love and family first and foremost. Those principals guided me through my own journey to finish my house and move my career forward to become an Analyst at a Fortune 500 Bank in my hometown. Keep up the good work and I'm sure you'll raise your kids right 😁👍🎉

Not as much as you two of course because of the love you two share. I hope your love lasts thru this life and the next. It's so wonderful to me to see people like yourselves enjoying working together. And reaping the rewards of your labor. I hope you have been able to get some financial rewards from you tube also. But if you haven't I hope you have been able to realize that the joy you've had is bringing joy to many of us who watched. I love to watch movies but I don't know if I have ever enjoyed a video more!

That was so funny because it was quite a large stash! And I loved that "Outer Space" Blue you guys had originally painted the containers with, until you found out it was too hot. It is all beautiful- and so is your family! Thank you both for taking us all along your journey!

They instilled the belief that it was possible, if you dream it you can achieve it, if you it plan it and have a team you can do anything you set your mind too. With God, Family, Love ,Health, and preparation are the results that we see before us. Absolutely nothing short of a miracle. Thank you for sharing your journey.
