Watching you chop wood is a spiritual experience. You do have the BEST supervisors and I'm glad Noah got in a good nap. In the battle of Mother Nature and weather, you just have to do your best. I'm so proud of you and Mica helping out a neighbour and friend and utilising the resources so nothing is wasted. Except that bad round...you can't win them all. 😀
Hellooooo Byron and family!👋☺️. LUV your little supervisor sitting on the pile ...tooooo CUTE!👍🤗💖😺. You sir have got some expert wood chopping/stacking skills and some SUPER ENDURANCE tooooo ...that was an enormous amount of wood! It's ALWAYS good getting a peek at what goes on in your world there at BEAUTIFUL Sanctuary! PRAYERS and blessings for you and all throughout this year 2024 and into the NEW YEAR 2025🙏.
Thank you so very much for being here, I’m glad you think so! 😃 I find I always have a lot of fun splitting and stacking! Merry Christmas to you and blessings abound!
Byron you may not be the best at diy but that will come with time and experience! However you're a great husband, a wonderful father, an amazing son, fabulous with animals and a stunt man to boot, I'd say that's a lot of achievement for a guy who is only 34! Well done my friend!👏👏👏
Hi Bayron, must say you are a master at chopping wood and Miss Kitty as your supervisor, she did not get distracted....And love your dogs.. Happy holidays to you and your family, as well mon and dad, close buy, Matt if he.s visiting. Enjoy the family get together. Look forward to more vids in the year coming...🥰🙏🐈⬛
💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻 No worries…there’s a lot of wood chopping (lifting) and hauling on a daily basis in my life as well…. I purchased a $500 log splitter which has been a game changer…not all that powerful but it does what it needs to ….messed up my shoulder about 6 years ago and now at 68 I no longer have arm strength to chop much….so one does what one needs to do 😊…won’t give up my wood heat though….nothing like it in the cold of Winter. Have a great holiday!
I agree you need to work out in addition to chopping wood to stay injury free. All supporting muscles need to be worked. Happy holidays to you and your family. Love your channel❤❤❤
Wow, this lifestyle is definitely full of labor. But the way you’re going about it makes it fully look like a labor of love. Thank you again and well done. Merry, merry Christmas to you and yours!
Hard work always pays off. Use it or lose it 💪. Im really enjoying your country life , im in Calgary for now. Cant wait to get out of the city !! Thank you for sharing your peace of heaven 🙏💎🩵 Merry Christ Mass 🎄🎅🎵💚😎🚐🇨🇦🇺🇸
My honey's uncle came to visit yesterday and gave him an ax belonging to his grandfather. Very special gift. I also like that celtic sea salt. 👍 Merry Christmas and Happy New Year blessings to you and yours.
BTW this channel is amazing - love the content, love the animals - came over from Van Life Plus - dare I say I prefer this content - but I know it is not a competition😅 and I have a camper van 😂. Merry Christmas- dang you are a hard worker 😮 anyone can do 12 more 😂
Dang Byron, your an amazing hard working man for your family 💪💪💪 @20:34 love Noah’s Baby Yoda chirps 🥰 A Merry Christmas to you, Steph, Noah and all the animals at Sanctuary 🎄🎅🏻❤️ Patiently waiting for the newest arrival of your beautiful family ❤
I’m with you about failing first! Haha then maybe second, third, forth before getting smart! Haha I saw short vid once about chopping wood in tire and it quartered it nice and didn’t send wood flying! As someone that doesn’t need to chop wood I always wandered if it really worth or movie magic for clicks haha
I remember stacking wood with my Dad, hard work, rewarding though on those cold nights, knowing you have a surplus of wood. 😊 Been enjoying your videos a lot! Good job Byron. Storms are coming this week so you will no doubt have snow for Christmas while we have rain in Victoria. Happy holiday and merry Christmas to you and your sweet family. 🎄🎉
Idk which to feel sorry for.. you or the tripod lol. You seem to be doing better but your poor tripod keeps on getting beat up lmao. You had me laughing the whole time. Thankfully Noah slept through most of it. I enjoy watching everything you do coz you are so entertaining. Merry Christmas Byron, Steph and Noah. Much love and well wishes from this old Missouri grandma. May all your dreams and wishes come true.
The tripod was definitely earning its keep! Absorbing all of the big hits! Thank you for being here with us your comments are always special and very appreciated. Blessings for the new year and a very Merry Christmas to you!
Merry Christmas to you, Steph an Noah, I hope you all have a wonderful family Christmas making lots of memories. Also make sure Steph rests because that baby will be here soon enough and then as you know sleep will be hard to come by.🎅🦌🛷🥛🍪🎄🎁🧸🧮🕯️👼🥳🍾🥂
Every single one has a name! ..even the chickens! At one point Stephanie named all 100 of them.. (Alfred, Wendy, Monica.. chicken #4, #38..) 😉 Our goats all have names, however! Perhaps I’ll do a runway video one day with all of their own introductions.
Have you thought of investing in a log splitter?? Oh...and imo... chopping wood like that is definitely a work out 😂 Also, do mama and baby not like to be on video? Just curious...
@@TalesFromSanctuary Well, I really hate to say it but I must. Tell Mr. VanLife PLUS that it takes one to know one. SMH, he can really bring out my inner 8 year old. 😂
It’s much more fun this way and I enjoy building my body up and letting it fly. “Smarter” can also be correlated with “lazier” 😉 there may come a time when I need one, but until then, I’ll save the log SPLITTER, for those who need them. Thanks for being here!
Commando. Love that movie.
Merry Christmas to you and your family and all of the animals 🎄🎅

I mean I train, but I do not remain injury free 🤣
Matthew may be the crafty one but you fixed the tripod without needing bandaids 🩹😂🤣
😂😂😂
😂😅😂😅😂
Hahahaha
😂😂😂
Or a Leatherman or a trip to the hardware store
Your son is pure gold! His surprise appearance made my day. may you and yours have a peaceful and joyous Christmas and New Year!
He’s a little show stealer!
Great job on the wood,Captain Canada! Merry Christmas to you and your family!
Merry Christmas Allen family 🎄🎄🎄
Another great video, Byron! You and your family have the best Christmas and the happiest of New Years!
Merry Christmas Byron Wifey Noah and animals! 🎄🎅🎁🎄🎅🎁🎄🎅🎁
Dang Byron, my shoulder hurts just watching you! ❤
Good for the old rotator cuff!
Wow, this lifestyle is definitely full of labor. But the way you’re going about it makes it fully look like a labor of love. Thank you again and well done. Merry, merry Christmas to you and yours!
I try to put myself 100% into most everything I do. I was once told “anything worth doing, is worth overdoing”. Merry Christmas!
Hard work always pays off. Use it or lose it 💪. Im really enjoying your country life , im in Calgary for now. Cant wait to get out of the city !! Thank you for sharing your peace of heaven 🙏💎🩵
Merry Christ Mass 🎄🎅🎵💚😎🚐🇨🇦🇺🇸
HWPO! Merry Christmas thank you for your kind words! I hope you have a lovely holiday season
In about 12 to 15 years, your back will be saying, "you should have bought a log splitter" you work very hard. Thanks for the LOG video 😊
That’s why I deadlift! So my body can ALREADY tell me that it hates me 🤣
Love your videos. Chopping wood is my favourite….lol. Merry Christmas to You All.
Merry Christmas!!
I' m a bit weary after chopping & stacking that wood right along side you 😅 That be a very nice pile of logs. Wee Noah is lovely.
My honey's uncle came to visit yesterday and gave him an ax belonging to his grandfather. Very special gift.
I also like that celtic sea salt. 👍
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year blessings to you and yours.
An axe is a primordial gift. People suggesting electric log splitters do not understand the old ways.
That’s amazing!
Avengers Age of Ultron!
Merry Christmas to you and your family
BOOM!

Very nicely stacked wood mate 👍 All the best wishes for the holidays. Take care. 🐨
Time to approach a sponsor about a splitter!
Very admirable, I could never do that without a hydraulic wood splitter. Your homestead is so peaceful. Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas!!
👋 Another great video. Wood wood and more wood 🪵 😅
I hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas together.....❤ 🎄 😊
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I’m with you about failing first! Haha then maybe second, third, forth before getting smart! Haha I saw short vid once about chopping wood in tire and it quartered it nice and didn’t send wood flying! As someone that doesn’t need to chop wood I always wandered if it really worth or movie magic for clicks haha
We did this our first year! It’s a great little tactic to use! Tires, who would’ve thought!
Watch the taillight.
When my tripod finally broke during a lifestream, I use the coffee mug to hold the phone up and it worked perfect😂
You are going to be able to keep your house plenty warm with that wood. Good work :)
Have the merriest of Christmases, Allen fam! Blessings in the New Year and much love from New Jersey 💚🎄🎅🐾🧑🎄
Maybe once your channel gets going you can get one of those hydrologic log splitters. I remember seeing one at a homestead in mountains of Virginia
Psssssh! Too many fancy gizmos! There may come a day when I need a splitter.. but until that day finds me, I am the splitter 🪵 🪓
Merry Christmas to you and all your family!
Wishing you and your wonderful family a Very Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas!
Love your channel and your humor!
Love it. That is an awesome workout
🐐🌼🐐🌼🐐
Is self-deprecating a whole family trait or just the whacky brothers?
Merry Christmas and happy holiday season!!
🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄
It’s a coping mechanism 🤣
Merry Christmas to you and your family, Byron!!!
Merry Christmas! Blessings to you!

Looks like alot of us had the same idea as you about the cat being the supervisor 😊
Looks like the cat is trying to supervise😊😊
Merry Christmas and a happy healthy New year to you and your family
🎄🙏🥰👏🐈🐕🐐🐓
Merry Christmas. That's alot of wood. Get busy lol😅
Always handling wood
Merry Christmas Baron and Family
Merry Christmas!
19:13 😆
I’m glad someone caught this.
That's an impressive wood pile. Merry Christmas to you and the family from down under Byron xx
Good axe. Do you ever make cheese with the goat milk? It is sooo easy.
We have! It’s delicious and easy - you’re right!

AWW HI BYRON!
HELLO!
Merry Christmas to you, Steph an Noah, I hope you all have a wonderful family Christmas making lots of memories. Also make sure Steph rests because that baby will be here soon enough and then as you know sleep will be hard to come by.🎅🦌🛷🥛🍪🎄🎁🧸🧮🕯️👼🥳🍾🥂
No one sleeps. Ever. Not in the woods.
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas from the United States of America 🇺🇸🎄
⛄🎄🌲🐕☘️☘️❤️❤️
Merry Christmas to you and yours from Nan and Pop in Dildo, Nl. We really enjoy your videos. Thanks
Hey have ever heard that put n all the pieces bark down helps it or drys it better
I’ve never heard that! Wonderful!
That is some axe! Merry Christmas to you & your family1 God bless!
Looks like you have more than one furry supervisor, dog too😊
Merry Christmas 🎄 & Happy New Year🎉
Maybe next time, if you stack your chopped wood, bark up, it sheds water better.
Ouch about the shoulder
Probably hoping the baby wakes up now lol
Hey Byron and Steph and Noah.....do all your animals have names....no disrespect to Steph....you're super fine....keep working out...
Every single one has a name! ..even the chickens! At one point Stephanie named all 100 of them.. (Alfred, Wendy, Monica.. chicken #4, #38..) 😉
Our goats all have names, however! Perhaps I’ll do a runway video one day with all of their own introductions.

Stephanie has terrible stage fright. Until I need a log splitter, I will use my hands - it’s much more personal this way 😉
Mr. Allen. Did you just call your viewers weirdos? 😂 Eh, you’re probably right.
I’ve been informed by Mr VanLife PLUS himself that you are all, in fact, weirdos 😉 but not to worry, so am I.
@@TalesFromSanctuary Well, I really hate to say it but I must. Tell Mr. VanLife PLUS that it takes one to know one. SMH, he can really bring out my inner 8 year old. 😂
So much wood...thinking a log splitter should be in your future. Then you will get your work outs in.
Never! Until I am unable to swing an axe, I AM the log splitter! 🤣 we still got a workout in!
You need a log spitter. Work smarter not harder.
It’s much more fun this way and I enjoy building my body up and letting it fly. “Smarter” can also be correlated with “lazier” 😉 there may come a time when I need one, but until then, I’ll save the log SPLITTER, for those who need them. Thanks for being here!
@@TalesFromSanctuary I was thinking of your shoulder.
Makes me tired just watching the wood cutting
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas!
