It is really interesting how people seem to love finding fault with your designs. Seriously people have you never stopped to realize the finished products are always spot on and gorgeous
"always" might be a bit strong. We make our mistakes but we have fun and learn a lot along the way. Thanks!
Not fault. Suggestions only. They can and will do what they like. And we love it.
When Maverick hugged that kitty, my heart melted! Your children are wonderful! ♥️
I imagine going through all of the feedback that you get, it is difficult if people question or criticize your decisions. As a fan of your channel, I will tell you I may not make the choices you make, but I so appreciate you taking us along. I find your work ethic astonishing! I gain knowledge when watching your channel. I enjoy the glimpses of your children and their activities. Don’t pay attention to any criticisms. Those folks aren’t worth your effort and concern. Keep doing you and please keep sharing with all of us. Thank you!
Your children are so respectful of animals! Great job Doug and Ashley!
I was in the hospital this week from a copd flair up and a virus.. i spent a good part of one day re-watching your oldest videos. It just so cool to look back at the beginning when you were just staring out with the chickens in Indiana... my goodness, look at you now. . The babies are half grown and you all appear to be in your true happy place. Can't wait to see what happens next.
I'm glad to hear you are better & out of the hospital. I hope you'll be back to 100% in no time.
Watching the old videos from time to time us fun. I do it too.
That's alot of lawn 😂 looking good Doug and Ashley 😊❤ coming along! Much love 🤗❤
By young man, it's always good to see in the videos. I'm so glad kitty likes you and your sister.
Ashley, great job cutting the grass.🌹
Doug, the colors on the mobile home look great, really like the blue. God bless you guys.🦋🍓💜
The background music you chose for the lawn mowing was epic!
Ashely in her zen mowing mode🥰
The trailer is looking better everytime I watch and I do have to say you have a beautiful piece of property and Ashley nice job getting the mower in the bus👍❤️🇨🇦
I just love it when the “doodle Zach” tinker music starts! Serious work is happening,😂
Ashley-TOWANDA, woman! You did it, you can do anything. You’re amazing. 🙌
I really like the paint on your mobile! There’s not another one like it. Your making wonderful progress! Have a good weekend.
Hi Doug and Ashley. Your design is 😎. It was lovely to see the kids😊. Great job mowing the lawn, Ashley. Thank you for sharing your life and family with us❤. As always keep safe and God bless your beautiful family always ❤️ 😊 🤲 💐
I love the way the windows blend in with the black paint. Makes it look reto.❤
I love how the black paint blends with the windows since they are irregular in size and distribution. Very classy looking. Perfect choice!
❤❤❤
Enjoying the progress.
I hope Calico gets to stay with you guys someday. She loves the kids!
Omgosh! Maverick has gotten so tall! Bell is taller than Mom now😮 They grow up way to fast! I remember when Maverick was a baby and Bell was little! Beautiful family❣️
Belle
I am loving this build! You guys are amazing and watching the kiddos grow so darn fast is a bonus. I was nervous watching Ash drive the mower up the ramp! lol
Totally off topic but love the background music y’all have chosen for the video. Not the same repetitive music you tend to hear with some other UA-cam videos. Be blessed.
I love what you’re doing! The foil wrap is a great idea. It serves a dual purpose; some insulation and it creates a bug and rodent barrier. It’s one thing rodents won’t chew through. On your next reno, cover the floor joists with it and it will provide more protection from rodents as well as keeping the floors warmer. It can be added after the fact but a big hassle to get on your back under the dwelling and attach it to the subfloor. Yuck.
I think that cat owns your family ❤️❤️🐈
Doug and Ashley, The mobile home is looking great. I love the outside paint you did on the mobile home ❤❤
Hey Doug. Try this trick when installing ceiling insulation. Cut the plastic bag it comes in into strips. Staple the strips to the rafters to hold up the insulation until you attach the ceiling sheets to the rafters. The insulation won't sag or fall. Makes the job much easier. Enjoy your channel.
Doesn’t matter if I like it or not, your property… Run with your design. Excited for you guys! It will be SO SO cool when you are done!
Some Chartreuse plantings would look so nice with the black backdrop of the home. Beautiful piece of property you have there and you are making it more beautiful. That kitty sure loves you Maverick!! 💕💕🎶🎶
Your new property has a lovely large yard.
The place is really looking so good! I love Ashley on her mower.😊
Hi Maverick and Belle!👋🏻👋🏻❤
Love your ‘polka’ music soundtrack while putting up the radiant barrier. It gives me a mental image of a Monty Python skit where they are Morris dancing with handkerchiefs. 😀
Love the retro paint choices. The turquiose could be swapped out with Maimi Eisenhower Pink. And still be in that era. Could never means you should. The turquiose is perfect along with your plan to stealth the windows. You all picked the perfect choices to rehab that coach. Great job. Don't listen to the nay sayers. They probably live on Twinkies and Poptarts. 🙃
Love the mowing music! It was like the final scene of a movie…A Girl and Her Mower. 😊
Kudos, job well done. I know you guys have thoughts things through , and you'll do what's best. Hello, Maverick and Belle. Hey, Stan, still hanging around? Woo woo, Ashley.
Keep up the good work !!! I look forward to see what summer will bring to this family.
Your kids are adorable. Wonderful to see you all doing things together!
Everything looks great! By Mav.!
Thank you for the video. I'm enjoying your progress on the mobile home very much. Ashley, as usual you look beautiful...😊 Enjoy your evening you all have done enough work for one day....❤❤
Doug Ashley, Belle and Maverick great job. I have to ssy you have a beautiful peace of property. I like tge sll black back of the home. I say do what you want. The front reminds me of the buscfor some reason. 😊 Ashley did a great job cutting the grass and putting the tractor back in the bus. Belle is growing up so fast, she was cute clapping for Ashley. Maverick I wait for that bye from you ever time. Bye Maverick! Have a great weekend! 😊💕🌴
Awww 🥰 kitty loves you guys. I bet she comes running when she sees you guys coming over. So sweet. You know if you put a dark stained deck on the house you could get a couple of the Adirondack chairs and paint them that blue color . It would look cool and good 😊
Is kitty pregnant?
@@melindaharry1852 ?? I had a cat that got in the family way. But don't remember the timing.
First comment! Great idea for with the radiant wrap!! Progress is looking good Mr Doug & Ms Ashley!!
Lol
Hello Doug Ashley Belle and Maverick! The trailer is coming along great! You. Keep. Doing. You. ! Love you guys. ❤🌵🌻🎶🔨
Stan needs a pet pink flamingo🦩 for a pet companion. I bet he gets lonely when y’all leave😂
Have a great weekend
Take care
Great idea, haha. We've been meaning to get some flamingos for our yard.
Nice to see Stan is still hanging around
Solar screens would help the window blend in even more.
The mobile home is coming along great. Thank you so much for sharing. Best family on UA-cam imo.
I love how the windows blend in, great idea 💡 & feel like that what makes the modern look part, the white trim gives the crisp clean to it then the teal/blue is the vintage twist ❤ love it
Love how the mobile home is turning out. I’m still waiting for the kitchen at home to be finished. I want to see that metal sink base refinished.
I believe you know what you are doing so I'm sure the radiant barrier will work just like you say. Ashley, you looked so cute on that riding mower and you make it look like so much fun. I love how your neighbor's cat feels right at home with you all, especially how she loves Maverick. Next time, you need to put Stanley to work instead of letting him just get in the way. Love your teamwork, your ingenuity, and your love for family and home.
It looks very nice guys.👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 It's nice to see your kitty neighbors like you so much.
💕💕💕
I love the paint! Especially the black blending in with the windows. Great job. The lawn looks nice too!
Hi Ashley and Doug, the garden is a lovely size, great job Ashley mowing the lawn. Love the back of the property with the pop of colour. I like the windows blending in. Have a lovely weekend
Things are looking great can’t wait for you to start the ceiling . God Bless your beautiful family.
Color scheme is excellent. Very mid century. As always, great job.
So cool! Keep up the good work. I love seeing the kids and the cats playing.
I love the triple colors y'all chose outside. The turquoise gives the pop needed to give depth. Well done.
The calico kitty loves your family so much 😻
She zooms over as soon as we get there. She's awesome, and her longer haired buddy is too :)
What do I love about this video everything. Love to watch Ashley mow. Always great to see the children and the beautiful cat. Different jobs turn into great progress. Going to be beautiful as always and most of all what your Family likes. Have a great weekend ❤️
Loved the close ups of the family. ❤️
Hello Doug & Ashley from Australia, we have our whole house wrapped in the foil bubble wrap including ceilings and on top we have the wool insulation. It keeps the house cooled n warm . Keep up the great job !
Hello Doug and Ashley great job the mobile house is so beautiful and the land looks awesome thanks again for a lovely video and your beautiful children 🙏🙏🙏🥰🥰❤️❤️👍👍👍🐈
Thank you so much.
I love the cats they are so beautiful 😻 I love seeing them with kids 😻😻😻🙏🙏👍👍❤️❤️
You are amazing ,all of you,I can hardly believe how much mum &daughter look alike,hard to tell who's the mom,xxx
I bet the neighbors are loving the progress! Enjoyed from Texas!
It's always interesting and exciting to see your latest escapades. The property has gone from an eye-sore to a beautiful place. As always I am grateful you share your journey with us.
Looking from the back at a distance the mobile home looks great.
Nice piece of property you have there- very park like!
Hey Maverick! I loved watching you & the neighborhood cat. She is really a sweet one & I think she really likes you. Bye for now!
Love the color of your trailer! ❤ .Have a great weekend! 😊
It's looking great. Can hardly wait to see what you do with the inside. ❤
Waltzing elephant music makes my morning!
You two make a great team. Team work make dream work.
You guys always knock it out of the park. I love the color . You made the windows blend genius!
The reflectix is going to be a game changer in the walls, good call for our Florida heat.
Assuming you'll be putting refletix in the ceiling also?
Once the insulation is in, will be a tad cooler to build out the interior. I think you planned out the timing of installs perfectly, to be ahead of our weather.
WOW!! I just LOVE the creative and unique colors you guys have chosen! I have spent a year trying to decide what I want the exterior to look like on a handyman special mobile home I bought in rural Appalachia. lol It has white siding now which needs some sections replaced or I might do the lower half wood, reuse the vinyl to replace what needs to be fixed on the top, and maybe paint the vinyl barn red. Though, I have heard when you paint vinyl it can be a problem. Decisions, decisions, lol I would have never thought of the colors you have chosen. It has a Frank Lloyd Wright vibe in the way it blends in with nature and your beautiful yard! The turquoise is an outstanding feature to retain and bring out the vintage design of the mobile home. Your brilliance never ceases to amaze me!!
Yea, you have to be careful with painting vinyl certain colors since it can cause it to heat up too much and cause it to warp. Thanks!
@@diyfferent yes, that is exactly what I learned when I watched a lot of videos about it. If memory serves me right it is especially true with a darker color like the barn red I really wanted that can cause the vinyl to melt when painted. What a bummer 😒 I truly appreciate that you have confirmed this is a problem so now I know it is true. Thank you so very much for being so kind to give your time to comment that is truly a big help, so now I know to move to another plan regarding the vinyl. God Bless
You could put another mobile home on your property it’s so big! Awesome purchase!
I used that insulation on my garage door. It works great
I think i am getting hooked watching you two live your lives diytfferent.
You guys are doing a great job. I am so excited for the layout of the inside. Good seeing Belle and Maverick loving on the kitty
Ok people, let's try to get this family to 200,000 subscribers, they seriously deserve our love and support!!! Don't forget to hit that "Like" button, too!!! 👍👍👍
Thank you for letting us know about the vapor barrier, I didn't even know what that was. But I'm learning a lot about how beneficial it is, in keeping the heat out during the summer, but it also helps maintain a warm environment during the winter months. It's definitely going to help improve your insulation and make it more energy efficient, in the long run. Thanks again for sharing another great video with us. I just love how ya'lls minds work with each project, I'm definitely learning a lot of useful information!!
But I need to stop reading the comments, because the things ya'lls haters like to say about "your own personal property" and how hard they work at trying to bring ya'll down, is really hilarious!! 🤣🤣🤣 Because there's absolutely no logical reason, for them to be hating ya'll and they're just grasping at straws!! LOL!!
I've been watching ya'lls videos for years and through it all, ya'll have stayed true to yourselves and that's why I love ya'll so much!! There's never been anything fake about ya'll and your just about the only ones on UA-cam, who isn't constantly asking for money and gifts from your viewers. Heck, ya'll don't even promote your own subscription option and you refuse all sponsorships, too!! Ya'll are really amazing and I don't think ya'll realize just how rare and special, you and your family truly are!! Sending lots of Love and bunches of Hugs to you both, and to your two wonderful kiddos!! ❤❤❤❤
I love that mower.
A lot of progress!👍🏻👍🏻🙌🏻🙏
Awesome thinking I’m sure it will be something installed that will save your energy bills always thinking ahead!!!
The cat has pick your family she knows love when she see it
I love that the windows just disappear.
The insulation is like the sunscreens made for vehicle windshields.
The mobile home is looking great. I really love the design choices. 👍🏽
Loved the paint job!
Hey ya'll! Hope you have a relaxing weekend! ...I luv the scent of fresh mowed grass😄...Ashley, i like your skirt. It's so cute on you!🙋🌅🐦
I really liked the top.😊
I really like the color scheme and it would fit in very well here in Palm Springs. You have a beautiful property and I know when it’s all finished your family is going to love it. What a great place to grow up.
One cat brought so much pleasure to the children, great to see, and the cat needs no batteries or winding.
Team work makes the Dream work!
I love the music you chose for this episode...makes want to dance💃.😊
It is very obvious that you have a knack for stirring up the haters a bit of advice they are going to look in the windows and try to stir up trouble for you when you are not around believe me it happened to me it's not trouble that you want I hope that you listen by the way I enjoy the channel and God bless
The mobile home looks very retro, it looks like a charcoal gray color to me, which is a nice contrast to white and blue. Belle and Maverick are wonderful.
Wow Ashley you made it I could never do that that the trailer's looking fabulous
I really enjoyed the happy music you chose! Bye Maverick 😊
love to watch you make this a such a cool place!!
Lawn is Beautiful! Great progress.
PERFECT music! Loved all of it!
Ashley so brave with loading mower (I'm only serious) and Doug so strong moving Stan like a rag doll (tee hee). LOVE the solid black and how the windows do indeed disappear. Love the cat(s) Enjoy every minute!
Hi guys
Hi Maverick and Bell love seeing you two help mom and dad
U guys take care
GOD BLESS each one of you
Colorful shutters will brighten up the town like a moon!!!
