I have a question once an item is full filled with it be removed from list??
@@deboraostema6745 we do our best to stay on top of the list and update it as items come in.
Double check your written material for your mattresses, those foam mattresses usually say the slats under them should be no further than 8 inches apart, to save the mattress and have more comfort you may want to put some wood or plywood under them.
off subject comment. i was a flooring installer and later a service manager for a carpet store. i seen you have a steam mop, it can be used to get the carpets to lay a little flatter. try it on a part that won't be seen first to make sure it doesn't get to hot and melt the fibers. all you need to do is start slowly dragging it across the carpet in one direction (not a back and forth scrubbing action) and this will lay the fibers all that way and it will soften the backing too. carpet is basically like your hair, when you wake up its all over the place, but when you take a warm shower, it lays back down in one direction. the way some of your carpets were rolled up with the sharp creases in them, they may never lay flat as the backing fibers have been stretched in unnatural directions for so long. i have seen some that never lay flat again even when doing a wall-to-wall installation with a big power stretcher. it just depends on the type of backing and for long it was folded up. good luck from Montana.
Thank you for answering. I just didn't want to get something that everyone has already.
What a beautiful world you have created for your family, the home, the garden, the horses and the furnishings
warming up your home...just wonderful. Now the toy drive recommences and is off to a great start. Lives of
abundance, you deserve it all folks...CHEERS!!!
some plywood under the matrasses
How do I order and you get credit for it
@@francinewharton7220 Order what?

I find myself smiling along with all of you as you drive up your driveway, hugging the horses, and walking into “home”..knowing that travel can be disruptive and frustrating, you all did FANTASTIC!!!
Wow! Your daughter is a gifted artist! 🎉
She is! I wonder if the ladies next to her noticed they were being turned into art 😆
@@GoodSimpleLiving great question n she is a great artist for sure
Welcome home. Jeremy your shirt you had on at the airport "Raised on Rice" made my day. My dad spent alot of time in the Philippines, Japan, Taiwan, and that region, I grew up on rice. My husband and I eat rice at least 4 times a week. I am so glad you are moving into the house. Your family is so adorable when you all play together and worked as a team getting the house clean. Well raised kids. Until next Saturday hope you get everything moved in and are getting settled. Love you guys.
I was raised on rice also, I especially love Jasmine rice! Rice and gravy, Spanish rice, fried rice, rice pudding oh so yummy! Have fun moving in and welcome home! The toy drive is on its way big time! Much love to all ❤
Oh my. I’m sitting on my trailer in the paddock area of our farm freezing. I couldn’t wait to go in the house where it is warm, to watch your video.
Jeremy your rice shirt is a classic.
You all looked so tired and bedraggled at the airport.
Your closing comments are wonderful.
For us, it was rice and beans. Lol. Still is. My comfort food.
Rice was a staple here in South Carolina, too. It was a crop grown here. In some of the historic homes in the low country, you can still see the rice fields.
Rice is our staple food here in the Philippines. Love the shirt. Love the family, great family
We feel the same way as you guys: No matter where we may go, there's no place like Home! Happy to see you all got back safely!! :) PS: Funny Roll & Cough Jeremy! LOL!
Thank you Brian, so true ❤️ 🏠
As a long-haul trucker for 30 years of my life, I can honestly say. NO PLACE LIKE HOME!! Your videos really make my day and I wish you all the Best Life Has To OFFER!. Your Fan Biz
thank you for sharing this celebration with us... We've all been waiting for this day to come for some time.. so happy for you all...
Nothing beats the feeling of coming home from a trip. It was nice to see the kids experience different things but also appreciate what they have. ❤️
Hope the move goes smoothly and brings your family a life time of happiness.
I can't even explain how much you are my role model. To me and my girlfriend, what an example you are. You set an example for us, not only at this moment but for a lifetime. You set an example for me to be a boyfriend, a husband one day and a father. I can't thank you enough. Thank you ❤
Then u will be..! Good for u
It is so heartwarming to see you moving in to your beautiful home, built with love, literally and figuratively. I hope love and laughter continue to be the foundation of this home and your lives. Nothing can come close to the gift you are giving your children everyday.
LOVE how all the kids are so cognizant that it takes everyone chipping in to make it all work. Good work, mama and papa!
Your kids are so cute, and your oldest daughter is stunning!
I just have to say that you guys are a hoot. Enjoy your new home, you deserve it.
Congrats on finally getting soft items in the house! With new rugs usually vacuuming several times each day the first week or two will also help a lot with flattening them out. Also with shag rugs having a carpet pad underneath will keep them fluffy years longer(and makes them even more fluffy😁).
So happy for you!
Instructions on those mattresses usually read flat surface. We used plywood.
Stay safe and hope everyone is feeling better.
I was thinking the same thing. Plywood would make a difference under the gel mattresses.
The phrase " welcome home"..as a veteran, has a very emotional impact..
That said: Welcome home family!!! May it be ever so humble..there's no place, like home!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
👍🐺🧙♂️🦊👍!!!!
Thank you for your service 🙏 ❤️
@@GoodSimpleLiving Thank you, it was an honor n pleasure to serve n protect!!!
Enjoy your new digs!!
Stay " family" always!!
👍🐺🧙♂️🦊👍!!!!
It all started with faith in each other. A big leap, a lot of hard work, and mission accomplished. So happy for your family!
The Joy and Happiness of your Family moving into the new Home is a wonderful sight to behold. The opening of the rugs was so amazing enjoyable, I can't help laughing and smiling with you all. God has truly Blessed you all.
I love the timing of this trip…craziness ensued, your kids got to experience all kinds of weird, amazing, and some disturbing things, and now you go back to your new home sweet home..wow! Congratulations!
There is no truer words, “there is no place like home” I bet you had a good night's sleep the first night of your return. That was a good trip, ending with the UA-cam event.
You all stay in good health, love from Mike. ❤
Glad you’re back. What an experience! Also, Kira’s drawing of the plane ladies was lovely. She has a talent. If she would make some drawings and you put them on notecards or something, they would make great fund raisers for your charities.
Congratulations 🎉👏 on the move in! It's been a long time coming. As a fan of the channel I am so proud of what you have been able to accomplish ☺️
Home is where the heart is, but there’s nothing like owning a home where your family will grow and live. There’s gonna be so many memories for you all. I wish you many more years together 👍🏻♥️
Oh to be that young again and have that energy. You have a beautiful family and homestead. Yes, it's nice to travel and I've said before, there's no place like home safe and secure. May the donations continue to come in and blessings to you and the generous donators. 😊🇺🇲
Thanks! 🎶 Yall can almost be so delightful it makes my cheeks hurt from smiling 😄 You know you’re gonna have to keep rolling around on those rugs for several days 😂😂 Take a few turns for me (at 71, it’s an activity out of my safety realm 😺) Everyone hug all the others and be thankful for having your Idaho home to always find protection, shelter and love ❤️🎶
What an incredible experience for your kids. You guys are giving them an awesome life!
You might want to add a box spring or something under the mattress so it doesn’t get broken down by the wood beams, and for the comfort of sleeping too :)
I was thinking the same thing!
I searched the comments for one addressing this. Even a sheet of plywood would be a big improvement.
Welcome Home from your trip and Congratulations on the move into your home. Bravo it is beautiful
I didn’t find you guys until right when you started building your home but I have grown to love watching y’all!! We are all as viewers so blessed to have y’all sharing your lives with us!! I’m so excited for y’all about moving in the new home!! It is absolutely beautiful!! Blessings on y’all from South Georgia!!
Thank you so much 💓
There's no place like Home! I am so happy Kyra managed to give her heart penny to her favourite youtuber. The children have had quiet a week and many things and places they have been to to digest. It will be interesting to thing what they thought, especially the two older children. You home looks fabulous and I can not believe how quickly you have come to this part of moving in. All that hard work, sweat and tears, has been worth it. Well done.
Oh how sweet to be home, to a home sweet home, and your dog and horses were happy to see you all back home 😊
HOW FUN AND EXCITING TO START MOVING IN IM SO HAPPY FOR ALL OF YOU
I was a flooring professional at home Depot for 6 years, and they sent me to various schools to learn about carpets and rugs and I'll tell you them folding that rug was a bad thing. Depending on what sort of backing was behind it. If it was jute backing that's the worst you can do to a jute back carpet. If it's a woven back it's not as crucial. So if those lumps and bumps don't smooth out it's because of the packaging not because of whatever you did
It's coming along nicely , welcome home. God bless you and your family
I have one of those really thick rugs in my living room. It's SO fluffy and everyone loves it. But it's a major pain to vacuum.
Oh totally!
I haven't seen my family since December 2019. Now that I can finally fly back to the U.S. I am afraid to because of all the flight delays and cancelations. I don't know what would happen if I missed my flight back here to Australia. I have to fly all over the U.S. just to see everyone and with all that happening, I just can't see being able to do it yet. I am so happy to see you all moving into your house. I can't wait to see it turn into a home after all your hard work.
I was never so glad that, all of you finally made it home safely.
I know the anticipation is building of that first night in your new home !! I’m so happy to see all your hard work and sacrifices manifest into this dream home for your family. May God bless each of you richly in this new dwelling for many years to come!!🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
I can't tell you how happy this makes my heart. We are about a year away from finding our forever home/property and I can't wait to do this with our family!
It’s so nice seeing your house come together and for y’all to finally be able to move in! Been following your journey for a long time and love every minute. 💕
Hey Kids!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️!! Not your usual trip right??!! The critters sure missed you!!⁰ especially Kenji!❤️❤️. You must be so proud!! The kids all preferred the homestead!! That's so awesome!! 🤗🤗🙏🙏❤️❤️🙏🙏. Love you and God bless! Yay, gifts have started to come!! I got an email from Amazon that mine were delivered so I was thinking you better go pick up the first load. LoL. Cuz I'm sure I'm just one of many. Yay!!
We missed him too! He had fun with grandma and grandpa though. They spoiled everyone!
If you had a steamer. You could steam the back of the rugs to get the lumps out. 😎👍👍
A long time coming.. and it's beautiful, Congratulations! Can't wait to see what's in the works for the next project.❤️
Such a good feeling coming home after an adventure! Hope you are enjoying your first few days in the house. ❤
Such adventures so glad you all made it home safely
Thank you so much, so good to be home!
It's amazing how all the animals need to meet and greet you when you return. They too have you on their minds and hearts.
It sure look like your family had a wonderful time at the UA-cam meet up but you’re right there’s no place like home especially when you’re moving into a brand new one congratulations it is beautiful❤
Your home is beautiful! Watching the construction from beginning to this point, has been a joy - much like witnessing blessings being bestowed on "family"... Glad you are all safely home ..
Glad you enjoyed your time away but it's always good to get back home! Loving watch you guys moving in the new stuff.
Beautiful May God Bless your every moment 🙏🏼
It’s fun to visit new places and see new things but the best part is coming back home.
Oh my gosh, so exciting to see the “move in”. Legend has it that Kaimani continues on his mission to roll the rugs flat to this day😬🤣 It was nice to see the family enjoying the function at LA, sad to see everyone tired & disappointed at the delay with flights, then….ta dah..home sweet home. Love how everyone went to hug Kenji, Koda & Lexan first up when they got home. Welcome home❤️ Take care & cheers 🐨🦘🥰
They were so missed, thank you 😊 💗
Must be exciting to officially begin life in your dream home, welcome back!
Well done on the completion of your beautiful home....and yes with that nice experience for the kids ...flying for the first time...
Definitely home is where the heart is...was super exciting to see the kids enjoying their travel flights....enjoy the new home...God bless and keep you.
From sunny S.A.
Can't believe how tall your older son has gotten so quickly
So glad you're home safe. Wow...that was a rush of a journey. Your children are fantastic troopers with all the delays and changes. Just marvellous. Thanks for taking us with you.
It looks like you had a good time in CA! I'm sure you are over the moon 🌙 happy and to be able to start the big move! Good luck and as always:
Be safe! ❤from your friend in VA!
So very happy you had a beautiful vacation but most of all I know it's awesome to be home you have a beautiful home beautiful family happy you're moving into a beautiful home because you're making it beautiful you're a beautiful family that's what makes a home God bless from Missouri
What wonderful & outstanding contributors you & your whole family are to helping make America’s future much brighter than the bleak forecasts we are reading about .... truly ... wonderful value systems have been instilled in each of your children .... they are obviously true “offshoots “ from the
“host plants”. 🌞
I foresee plywood under those mattresses in the near future.
Welcome home guys!!! What an experience!
So glad to see your family made it home safely. Flying looked so fun I want to try it. Just as soon as I grow feathers!! Delays going to and back from LA! The rugs really make the rooms POP! Everything you add to your home has made it more alive, can't wait to see what is next. You will have to keep the front door closed, or you will have that HUMMINGBIRD as a house guest. So warm and beautiful looking in the dark with the lights on. Just love what you have created.
Melissa, you still got it girl! How exciting for all of you to finally move in. Once again, you had me smiling the whole video. Loved the rug rolling!
Your right nothing like coming home!
Can't wait to see how your new home looks when your finally moved in.
Very nice round off!! 😉
I love your choice in rugs and furniture...great job!
Wow! Time is flying. The kids look bigger too. I still remember when you folks where in the garage/barn. God bless.
That conference looked amazing!!! It was super seeing you guys in your element! That little penny exchange was awesome! So glad you made it home!!! Glad to see everyone reconnecting with the animals. What great days! And Kenji!!! How about a great day tomorrow!!! 😊😊😊
My sons friend moved in last winter to finish school. He bought one of those mattresses, haven't heard him complain about it yet. Stay safe out there.
Когда смотрю на эту семью, сравнимо с медитацией - такая гармония, такое понимание, такая слаженность ...сплошное умиление..
I absolutely love your channel. The way you interact as husband and wife, father and mother and as a complete family. I thank ya'll for sharing your life with us. Be blessed and safe!
Can't wait to see you all moved in!
Your the best parents in the universe 🎉GOB BLESS YOUR FAMILY 🙏🏻lots of hugs from Northern California wine country 🍷
Sure glad you are back home to reality ! Letting your children see the other side of life lets them know those lives do exist . It is heart warming seeing their reactions and being so glad to be back in Idaho where they enjoy living a real good life. You all have done great. Stay safe and keep having fun around there moving in the new home and getting settled. Thanks for sharing, Fred.
LAX is an experience of its own. I was stuck there with my two youngest children 4 & 5, alone. We were coming home from Sandpoint, flew out of Spokane. My husband was waiting at Palm Springs airport. There was a bomb scare, we were wondering why there were hundreds of police officers in pairs. My husband told us he was coming to get us, and to have them pull our luggage. Well….some of our bags went to Alaska, and another to Seattle.
We were so glad to see Daddy when he got to LAX for us. They delivered our bags the next day to our home.
This video was the best ever. Start to finish. Mom, your so LIMBER Awesome girl. Beautiful kids. Beautiful husband, beautiful home. . Save the cardboard for the garden, or composte, but you already know that. I so look forward to your channel EVERY TIME it's out. Love and prayers for you every day. ❤️ Your devoted viewer Nurse & Eucharistic Minister in Scottsdale AZ.
It was interesting to see how everyone's energy came back all at once after the arduous trip. I had thought that air travel was smoother in the USA than here in Europe but it seems much the same mess of waiting then connections being 'iffy' as people and baggage are treated the same.
When you got home and started the roll out of flooring and bedrooms taking shape you became like a single entity as a team of individuals with greater maturity and role-taking by the older kids but without losing a single atom of what makes you such a happy family.
When things occasionally go wrong -- usually weather related -- you are ALL in action by age, strength and size. It really is totally amazing.
So you don't have to put a box spring or a board underneath their bedding so it doesn't fall through?
We lived in the Philippines and Panama . We ate lots of rice with different spices. Moved to the south and new ways of eating rice. I love rice...and taters!
Watching y’all roll around on your new rugs brought back awesome memories. When my dad retired from the military we lived in a small camper for 5 months until they decided where to live and and buy a house. We were so excited to spread out and rolled all over our new shag rug... and have ice in our drinks! So happy for y’all. - watching from Lake Wales, Florida
Heerlijk om op vakantie te gaan ,maar nog beter om weer naar huis te gaan ❤
Wasn't sure if this comment was dutch or Afrikaans.
My daughter was stationed at JBLM. I flew in and out of the Seattle airport a lot to see her and the grandkids. It was interesting to see you walk through the airport in areas that I had been to as well. It was as if we could have passed one another in the hall. Life is a cool adventure and one fascinating walk through space/time. Pay attention, and you get to see a great dog, a family building their dream home, and a city so populated that it drives the governance of the entire state. Watching the swallows of Capistrano and the annual southern arrival of the Canadian geese, all those little things and then the big things. Life. Drama. Joy. Peace. And then, finally, moving into that wonderful house. And so much more to come. Welcome home, guys. Welcome home!
Beautiful home, love the bunk beds ❤️❤️❤️
I’ve been following you and Jeremy since you packed up your first home…Jeremy’s last day as a police officer, all the way here. In all this time, I don’t think I have ever written a comment. Lol. Now that you’ve started moving in, I’m so excited for you guys!
I feel like an adopted part of the family and I’m over here, eyes all welled up with tears, watching this video! 😆
You have been such an inspiration to me Melissa as a wife and Mom! Thank you for sharing this journey. I have thoroughly enjoyed watching you build your beautiful home! To see the finished product from the visions in your head, is absolutely amazing. You can design a house for me anytime! I can only imagine the sunrises in that beautiful kitchen.
I cannot wait to see the rest and what is to come! Beautiful family, beautiful home. Wishing you many blessings!
Thank you so much Toni! Thank you for bring on this journey with us, and for your encouragement ❤️
The house is becoming your home where love and peace resides. What a blessing!💜
I believe going away whether on vacation or just a quick weekend trip makes us all so much more appreciative of "HOME"!
Seeing the kids smiles driving up the driveway tells us you guys have truly made a place they love and feel most comfortable at. That's one of our most important jobs as parents!
Well done!🥰
♥️
Your family is on a amazing platform! It's really an amazing recognition that you received the invite. I think that you are doing very well with the channel that you have created! Keep being amazing 🤩
Thank you ❤️
I love your raised-on-rice shirt, rice is what we grew on our farm until we retired in December 2019, when we moved from Nothern California to Twin Falls Idaho. On a side note, the Wilhelms, from Tin Barn Farm, stopped by here after delivering your horses to pick up one of my mares that I sold to Alan Palmer. Small world.
Yes coming home is feeling great , always . You know what feels also good about horses to me, their nose-lips area is so soft , when i see them , I can still feel it from memory
Yes, the best feature. Their big velvety thick floppy lips
Woohoo! Moving in….yeah! Take care and be blessed.
I think it is so cool to see the kids in new environments! Well done!
It almost looked painful for you to be away from home….and we can see why it’s super exciting to watch you move in…..all the hard work has paid off and now you can live the dream…..so so proud stay safe well and happy
Hello 🖐 wowzers sorry to hear about all the complications and set backs. Good to hear that ur all home safe.
Moving stuff & items into the home. Everyone help to clean. Rugs first. Then the heavy wooden 🛌 beds
Nice new mattresses. Till next time Y'all. Ttyl 👋
What an exciting experience for the Good Simple Living family to attend the UA-cam convention! And moving into your realized dream, most perfect! Enjoy every moment living your dream!! Thanks for sharing with all of us! 💕💙💜💖💙💝🐾💜
After spending a week in one of the black holes in that state, I’m sure coming home was a big relief and to realize just what a peace of heaven you have created in Idaho. Great place to visit once was enough for me.
Your kids are amazing how they just jump in and do things without a be told every little thing to do. You should be very proud of them.
What an experience!!! The flights LA, You Tube convention. Life time memories. Then opening the new stuff making a home. Excitement all over the place!!!
I have mostly good memories of travelling by plane with our four kids. It was 25 to 35 years ago when air travel and life seemed simpler. Great to see you on the final steps of moving into the house. I'm sure everyone will give a collective aaaaahhhhh the first night you're all under that gorgeous new roof.
I hope you feel our love, you are such a joy to watch, every single one.
"No matter where we go, it is home that anchors us." What a truly unforgettable reality! Thank you, Melissa. I think I will make a poster of that for my home! Blessings and WELCOME HOME! ❤️ 😍
