- I and my 7 children have a lot of running around to do today! Come along with us as we prepare to leave our homestead and travel to town. We're doing our once-a-month grocery stock-up at 10 Box, Aldi, Kroger, and Wal-Mart. We're also picking up our monthly order from Azure Standard. It's a busy day, but we have a lot of fun too!

🌹🌿 Awesome parenting exampled 💕
Just want to say I love your family and the simplicity of your family so much! It calms my spirit! Much Love from Kansas❤🙏
Janice, you are a Proverbs 31 woman and oh how I would love to have a daughter-in-law like you. Your family is very, very blessed.
oh God, I love watching your videos and they really bring comfort to me, you and Sara share such a lovely bond. sending love and prayers.
I loved “riding along” with you today!🌻
Robyn, I'm pretty certain we would have had a super-fun time if you had been riding along in the van with us that day! :) Sending love to you, friend!
All i said was the kids would love harry potter & the character in the lego set was called dumbledore.didnt expect to get so much hate.ive helped janice&shawn out in the past with security issues so i have no hate towards this family 😮
I loved seeing the calendar with your family photos.
Such a fun day out ! Thank you for sharing. I’d love to see your dinner table bench. We’re about to build ours and your looks so perfect. - Momma to 11 🥰
Reminds me of growing up… in the late 70s, early 80s, we had a Co-Op. I don’t know if they still have those anywhere or not. It was a community group that bought in bulk. You’d work a certain amount of hours per month, packaging things into small bags, etc. it was a storefront, kind of like a health food store. We’d buy honey, oatmeal, etc in 5 gallon buckets (the cheapest way). Or we’d buy in bags by 5 lb, 1 lb etc. everything from spices, flour, carob chips, just anything needed but in healthy form, all the basics. We didn’t go to town every week, always, so it was always an exciting time.
Back then, interest rates were 18%+ and daddy built a log caning, had a big sawmill . I peeeled logs for the cabin with flattened out how, he even made wood shingles. We only cooked on Woodstove, had every animal imaginable. I had to help my mom like Sarah (only girl and oldest) and we canned 800+ quarts thst summer.
It was very primitive. Also cut and baked our own hay, just everything! Looking back, that first year was hard! We got it done. Then it got a little easier, but it was always busy.
Oh, those are very nice. Muffin holders or liners. Very colorful
Hi Janice & family,your muffins look so good Sarah.Your channel is awesome.So enjoy the content.Have a wonderful day.❤️
You sure d id slot in one day.. Alot of places to go to. Have a good night..
I love Rebekah's singing, and your children are wonderful helpers...
Enjoyed our trip to town! The calendar was such a great way to share and display your wonderful pics taken throughout the year.
Hi Janice,
You and your family inspire me: You do so much and yet find it completely normal. I couldn't take a day on like your days. Way to go! Peace be with you.
Anna looks just like her pretty Mama!😊
That’s a long time for Rebecca to sit. My kids all came inside with me at every stop. We usually tried to make a park or other fun stop as well.
In the video, Rebekah is out of her car seat and wandering arounf the van, she was not in the car seat the whole time.
@@lisaharrigan1370 oh gosh I didn’t see her out as well
WOW!!! It’s exhausting watching your family, everyone is so busy all the time! It’s awesome how everyone pitches in and gets it done whatever needs doing! Amazing work ethics these children are developing! Your oldest daughter sure won’t have any fantasies about what life is like to be a wife and mother! Absolutely love watching you all! God bless. ❤️🥰🇨🇦🍁🙏🏻
Thank you I really enjoy watching your videos ❤
God bless your goodness! You are a great example of what “family” should be! 🤗
I'm surprised some of the older kids don't stay home instead of sitting in the van for all the errands. But if they enjoy it, that is great. Seems like orders could get confused at the Azure pick up.
The individual packages have their last names on them, I believe.
“Goodbye!” Rebekah was ready to ride! And who needs a radio when she sings beautifully for free! And oh my gosh, I would buy one of those calendars in a heartbeat! They are awesome! 😍😍😍
We also have better homes and gardens here in Australia. Didn’t realise it was in America too
Love your family
Wasn't feeling well this morning, but you made me smile. Love how Rebekah didn't even look twice at her sandwich, just started eating it crust and all, not even cut in half or quarters! I guess you don't realize how many 2yo's wouldn't do that, but we do. You are such a good, senseable Mama. Take care and best wishes from Missouri. Cheri
This was fun to actually see how the azure standard works in real time! Love your day inthe life video!
Hi I love watching your channel so down to earth love u all my best 😊❤😂
Oh good... A video from the Ozark homestead family this morning, now my morning is complete! I will watch this then I can start my day!
What a beautiful home,and shopping was great, may God bless you and family many years to come.
I enjoyed going along on the shopping trip with your family!😊
This family works together as a family. My three children learned life skills growing up on a farm just like these children are doing now.
They really don’t go off the homestead a lot. And if Janice’s kids are like my brother and sister and I, we absolutely LOVED “going to town” with momma. I was the oldest so I was I want to sit in the car with a little ones who didn’t go in with momma. We were FAR from bored! I certainly preferred sitting in the car with them and playing “I Spy”, singing songs, etc., than Momma leaving me at home with them and having to chase them all over the farm. lolol
The grandparents will absolutely LOVE the calendar ! xx
The Better Homes Cook Book was the first cookbook I got as a teenager as well! I still use it often, especially if I’m looking for a staple recipe - just this week i used it for sugar cookies. ❤
I really enjoyed watching your family today 😊
Thank you, Joanne! 😊
Pretty Sara is going to be a awesome mother….just like you🫶🏼
Hey Janice from the UK 🇬🇧 Absolutely adore all of your uploads. You have a beautiful family.. and beautiful families come from the guidance and love of beautiful parents. ❤
I would absolutely LOVE to see a DITL upload that mentions the time of day throughout it ( if that makes sense ?) You all have such busy days/lives and it would be so interesting to understand timeframes for different tasks throughout your day…
This was a fun video to watch would be fun to see one like it again!
Great family , your kids are adorable !! thanks for sharing you always put a smile on my face ! lots of love from Quebec Canada
Those calendars will make for HAPPY gift recipients!!! Love!!!
I hope your family has a very blessed Christmas! ❤
They don’t do Xmas🎄🎅🏻🙏
As I sit here in the hospital with my husband, we're hoping he's discharged today. Watching you is a great distraction and wonderful blessing
I hope your husband has a speedy recovery!
Janice I just love y’all. Please do more videos like this one.😊
Such a joy
Enjoyed this so much. Your family always makes me smile
Thanks for sharing!
On a farm- everyone does chores. Parents organize it all and work from sunrise and long after it’s dark 7 days a week.
Janice, I love to watch your videos. You have the most beautiful family. The children are so adorable. I love to see the way your family works together. I feel like I have to "visit' every day. because you all cheer this single older lady up and make me feel less alone. I also have a Better Homes and Gardens cookbook that my mom gave me when I married in 1974. I was 18 and didn't know how to cook but that cookbook really taught me a lot. Thank you for sharing your life with us. Elizabeth singing ...there are not words to describe that cuteness.
I recive a Better Homes cook at my wedding shower almost 58 years ago. I must say I did replace it about 28 years ago for a New one I worn out that first one.lol I agree if could only chose one cookbook this is the one too.
My mom’s is almost the same age as yours 54 years! She got hers as a wedding present when they got married in 1969! I bought a 60’s version from a thrift store in Florida because I wanted the same version as my mom!
Love the video today. And the kids are growing up so fast. So we'll mannered😊
So fun!
Looks like Aldi is the same everywhere🌼🐝🌺🇦🇺Do the older ones ever stay at home by themselves when you have a shopping day?Just love the calendar
Awesome! Love watching your channel! TFS ❤️
Thanks for watching! We sure do appreciate it! 🥰💕🥰💕
What an exciting day, super busy. You all must be tired. Enjoy your evening.❤
I think little miss Becca was trying to say share the muffin shes such a sweet little girl.
Fun day! Always make me smile 😀
Enjoyed the grocery hauls and hanging out with yall.
I loved your singing Rebecca!!!! Wonderful and helpful children. 😊❤🙏
Ms. Ruby
Just started watching your channel and I really like it a lot!
Yay!!! We're all so very glad to have you here, Trish. Thanks for subscribing and taking the time to comment! :)
Thank you Janice for sharing 😊
Anna is just beautiful. Her braid is so pretty. And she is so responsible and helpful!
Great video
Never knew how azure worked. We travel year round. We RV. I do not know if I could use it. But the products look high quality. I use my Kroger App and Aldi app to keep up on sales. Kroger Company has over 20 affiliated grocery stores across America. So I still clip all my coupons and keep up on sale ads. Please do not listen to the lady who is rude. She has no idea what it takes to raise strong independent children. Most children today do not know how to be prepared to live on their own. You are teaching your children how to be productive people. Love your whole family. I am sad I will not be able to be in the live tomorrow. My family are getting together tomorrow. See you next week.
You are absolutely right! Most young adults today can't cook, clean, do wash, know where the dishwasher detergent goes, pay bills or budget money. Every one of these children will be able to run a household very well when they are young adults!!
Im thinking about doing azure standard at least this gives me an idea of what to expect my first time if I decide to. 👍
Have fun with the family
those muffins look amazing great job Sarah hugssss
When we lived on our farm our trips to town were all day affairs too. Thank you for sharing ❤
Merry Christmas to all Baking a banana bread snow man today and Christmas cookie to enjoy with family all stay safe during holidays
I am haveing such a great time watching your outing going to all the stores i am enjoying this very much i feel like i am right there with everyone thank you Janice. Gypsy from Michigan.
Could you please post the link for the other family you talking about that has a UA-cam channel. I looked up, eclipsing it but could not find it. Thanks.
Dumbldore!
Exhausting. What were the items you got from the big truck in the big brown bags, once a month?
Hello 👋 I have those cupcake wrappers and they are great because they are reusable 👍 now I never have to buy paper ones anymore 🎉 Janice is Rebecca potty trained ?? We did the calendars last year we had 25 made and the cheapest place was online Walmart for 8.5 +11 $12.96 and we loved them ❤️🎄
Hey my favorite UA-cam family, I just love your children so much! They are so well behaved and so respectful. You and Shawn are amazing parents!
And I’m so enjoying Rebecca and how she is growing and learning so much! She is absolutely precious! Can’t wait till the next video! Love y’all and GOD bless y’all!❤
Love all your videos ❤.... where can I find your friend's channel.... Eclipsing it....????
Absolutely love your family and the calendar is amazing! God Bless you all! From Ontario Canada 🇨🇦 ♥️
I have my dad's Better Homes and Gardens cookbook as well as the one I got when I got married. Some of the recipes are different for the same item. I prefer the older recipe.
I bought a 60’s version from a thrift store in Florida since I wanted the same version my mom has! She got hers as a wedding present back in 1969! Hers has a stove coil burn mark on the back!
Loved this video so much as it gives a glimpse into the day to day of what needs to be accomplished prior to you even being able to leave. I love how different children step up at the various spots and how everyone works together getting everything done.
Thanks to you, I actually picked up my first ever Azure Standard order at our local drop today and can’t wait to try my new finds.
As always, Rebekah is the star of the show, and I can’t wait to see her blossom into the person God uniquely designed her to be! Rebekah strikes me as an intricate mix of Sarah mixed with some of the boys humor and wit. Watch out , world!
Nice video ...❤
Wouldn’t it b a nice for all the kids to go into some of the stores with u rather than sit in the van for so long!! Thinking it would b a nice outing for them!!!! Also do you ever stop at a fast food place for lunch once in awhile??
Merry Christmas
What a beautiful calendar!! ❤️❤️❤️
without divulging where Shawn works, what does he do for a living? must earn a good salary to support such a large family.
That is how they learn
Sarah is right. That Rebecca is one bright sweetheart! You all have teamwork down to an Art!❤
Good video very interesting
Look into Taste of Home cook books, I live them
I know your calendars are so very personal. But I thought we would love it too! Hint! hint! Lol! Could give you a little bit in your pocket too! For sharing your family even more with us! Just a thought! (I have not read all the comments to see if someone else has said this too?)
great video guys
You guys are an olied machine. Amazing whaat you all get done in good harmonie. Respect!
My favorite Cookbook is Betty Crocker. It’s very upper Midwestern
This was a fun video to watch! When you were in the store and couldn't reach something...I'm tall so any time I see someone that may not be able to reach something and they are either reaching or trying to figure out how to reach it, I always offer! It is the one good thing about being tall and able to help. Great video!
Anna is just so so sweet🩷🩷🩷
Absolutely the best teamwork! Amazing family💜
Janice you are awesome. . Don't respond to trolls.😊 muffins 😋
Not everyone who ask questions are trolls .
With the current climate of family UA-cam channels it is important to be transparent and feel comfortable answering questions about the lifestyle choices.
I enjoy this channel and I am curious about things.
I am a mom of six adults and eight grandchildren. So I know the reality of large family life .
I ask a lot of questions. I am from Denmark Europa, and wants to hear about your lifestyle. It is not rude to ask. It is rude not to be interested 🧑🎄😊😊
@@patklickmangormanrussell2613 Just because they choose to show certain aspects of their lives doesn't mean we are entitled to know everything about their family. Everyone should respect their boundries! I'm sure if you had a YT channel you would feel the same. Just because there have been a few high profile, bad apple, family channels recently doesn't mean we get to interrogate every family channel at will.
@@lisaharrigan1370 they did explain why they didn’t celebrate or observe Christmas . I respect that .
So they did open the door to questions on that subject. In my denomination Advent is part of the preparation for Christmas.
In my value system I would not send Advent calendars to a family that does not observe this season.
@@patklickmangormanrussell2613 It is their right to accept what gifts they want to accept, even if it does not align strictly with their beliefs! Many people are of one religion and incorporate aspects of other religions into their holidays and there is nothing wrong with that!
Sarah she is not just the smartest 2 yr old but also the cutest! You are all the cutest kids. Like my much older cousin use to say about me and my 9 siblings there is not an ugly one in the whole bunch !LOL. What a busy day. I got 8 children. 7 living one son in heaven. Mine are all grown. But I was not an empty nester until my husband and I moved an hour away.. the 4 adults still living at home got to take over the big house for us. No mortgage but with expenses they are all realizing how much money their Dad had to make to not only pay expenses but a big mortgage off also. I am so tired and need a nap just watching you go in and out of so many places.
Such a sweet comment. Sarah is the oldest daughter.
Janice you an Shawn are such good parents an your children are awsome love you guys ❤
Looks like you've had a cozy day full of blessings.
Enjoy your videos
I like Betty crocker cookbooks
Fun going along with you all God Bless You all 😊❤
Thanks for taking us along 🙂
Rebekah is so cute! You had a very busy day! Hope you have a great week.
oh wow....going to town! This should be so cool!
Hi guys ❤ not seeing Christmas decorations.. do you celebrate Christmas? Not sure on your religious beliefs? ❤
They have an entire video on Christmas if you will look back a couple of months or so.
They’re Christian but don’t celebrate Christmas because there’s not a specific date when to celebrate Christmas in the Bible. Like the other viewer said she did do a video on it if you want more details on it.
