"You made me instasweat". I just about fell out of my chair laughing. I'm SO glad that I found your channel through Cajun Country Livin'. It's always refreshing to see couples working together like you all do to reach your goals. Thank you for taking us along on your journey. It makes me feel better about tackling the projects I work on at our house.
Haha that's the "oh crap did I make a big mistake" WORST kind of sweat! If you know.. you know. Ted and I are so glad you found us too! Welcome! That makes us so happy to know we can help inspire others to tackle projects, too! It always feels good to make improvements and learn new skills along the way!
I love how everything looks in the house. You both are masters at remodeling and i know how proud you both must feel with what you've accomplished.. Thanks for your content. Blessings!🙏🙏🙏
Absolutely love the way the bathroom turned out y’all! That GREEN wall just makes the room! Don’t you think Teddy? 😅 We can’t wait to see how the countertops look! Way to go on the fishing!🎣❤️
Thank you, Lydia! Lol yes yes to the GREEN wall!!! Thanks again for sending those spinners up! Kids are loving them and the northern waters fish are, too!
Congrats on another room complete! Love the butcher block countertop! I can't believe the progress you guys have made from when you first started. Everything is looking fantastic. Mike
Hi Laura, and thank you! Haha yes I knew he could pull off those fancy cuts! Of course hooray for the bees! Thanks for watching and supporting us! We appreciate it!
Still binge watching... Loved the shot near the end with puppy in the water bowl, I assume that was Clifford. It would be so much like him. Jenna, it's great to see you and Ted working together like you do. You are right, Ted knows a great deal and makes it all look easy, but don't sell yourself short. You are a hard working lady and have obvious skills as well. I loved it when you said to Ted, "You made me insta-sweat" and then laughed. You two are so fun. My compliments to whomever does all the outside filming and particularly the video editing. It is all cut and spliced together so very nicely - kudos to you for that time consuming work that turns out so nicely. I love how you always include the dogs, kids, nature surroundings, kids and whatever you all are doing in the videos. An example in this Finley and CJ prepping the fishing lures and then the scenes with them fishing. Very nice, relaxing and enjoyable to see it all included. Kudos to Ted for getting the "free bees", interesting to see how he did it and how well it worked out. Have a great week you all and be safe. Larry, Central Valley, Ca.
Good morning! I think that may have been “winks” in the water bowl, but yes that would absolutely be something goofy Clifford would do as well! Ted just has this way of making everything seem so easy! I guess that’s just years and years of practice and learning! Everything is easier said than done for me. 😂 I do a lot of the filming- But ted does a lot, too! If we’re both in the shot, the tripod does the work unless one of our kids volunteer to behind the camera! (And they are both SO GOOD at it!) I do most of the editing and when I’ve got it where I want it, Ted will watch and proof it for me to make sure it makes sense! It’s nice to have a fresh second set of eyes because I have spent so many hours clipping/moving/adding/taking away. So he makes sure everything’s good to go and catches anything I may have missed!! Thank you so much! The kids had fun fishing! Pretty soon we’ll be sitting on the ice pulling them through the hole!! We’re excited!
lol It's tied up as high as it can go! We've even tried it obnoxiously low... which works to prevent running into it, but it's always in the way then. 🤣
Oh yes, we've seen Doug from @DIYfferent use one! I may try that... I think it would save a lot of time and be a heck of a lot easier than using caulk!
Thank you, Katie! We appreciate that! I know... little Winks in that water dish.. so stinking cute!! So glad we have those memories with them all! She did find a wonderful home!
@@TheLiFeInPines 😊😀 well one the many things, only you would know. You be queen of the pines 😊 Y'all are welcome, have a wonderful rest of y'all's week. 💖
Thanks Earnie! And yes, the bees are such vital part of our food chain and ecosystem! We can tell even our garden has done better since having honeybees!
It’s looking great you guys, I know it seems like a never ending task but like you said there is a light at the end of the tunnel and it seems you guys are getting closer to it.
Great job guys! The bathroom looks amazing. So happy you guys got to save the bees and take them to a new safe home. I can’t believe we won’t see the puppies again. They are so cute and cuddly. Love and be safe!😘🤗🌼🇻🇪
Hi Monique! Thank you so much! And yes, it's always so great to be able to save the bees and bring them back home to our bee yard! Oh you'll still see at least one puppy! We kept one! Have a great rest of your week!
The bathroom came out beautiful!! I just started mine, and I forgot to record it 😕 man it's always something 😂😂!! You all have an awesome and blessed weekend!!
Thanks, Cedric! Oh no on forgetting to hit record! Thats such a bummer! Live and learn though! Hope you and your family have a great rest of your week!
Teddy, next time at Menards grab a small carabinier and take up the chain in your arch nemesis. No more bumping your head. I'm going on 18 years missing mine. If the end game is sale or rent, you can let it down for esthetics then.
i wish i had money to buy the house i would in aa heartbeat yall doing awesome. so one big question. WHEN YALL BUYING ANOTHER FIXER UPPER TO DO IT AGAIN😁?
Awe, thanks! It will be a very nice little house once we're all done with it. Haha I asked Ted your question... this was his response: "Never say never... but at this point, never.." 🤣 Haha we'll have to see how this one ends up.. but we do know we probably wouldn't do another one to this extent.... at least within the next few years.
Ufda -- is that the end of the tunnel, or a taconite train comin' our way? Ted, unless they show up at your door with Lutefisk, they just don't understand Scandahoovian carpentry. Freebee's are always the best.
Oh goodness, Todd! Hopefully there is NOT a train loaded down with taconite pellets obstructing the finish line! Lol, your comments are always so fun and entertaining! And we agree.... Heck yes on the FREEbees!!! 🐝
What a great day to be able to gather a swarm of bees. The house is so close. I'm sure you have learned so much on this project.l am already looking forward to seeing what you will do next. Just curious was this project harder than you anticipated or about what you expected I know I have said it before but I always look forward to each weeks video Have a great week.😊
Yes! It was so rewarding to be able to capture that swarm! And you're absolutely right, we have learned SO much throughout this process! We've got lots on the docket for future projects and content! This is such a great question... Ted and I talked about it and we agree, this project wasn't necessarily "harder" than we anticipated, but it was definitely MORE than we anticipated. And it has taken so.. much... longer than we expected. But we had NO idea how much longer things take when you're filming it! Thanks for always watching, commenting and your continued support! We appreciate you, Steve!
So hilarious, when you said insta sweet I just cracked up. I say the same thing. I'm from and live in MN too. So it must be a MN thing. Such great videos.
Hi Michelle! Thank you so much! We get all of our copyright free music from Uppbeat... I use a lot of different songs and artists... if you want to know about a specific song, just let me know which one and I can get the artist and title for you!
Haha, the best kind of bees! OH YUMMMMM... maple syrup! I wish we had maple trees on our property.. if so we would absolutely be tapping those babies in the springtime! How much do you usually process in a given year?
@@TheLiFeInPines last year was my first ever attempt and I collected about six gallons of sap which gave me a quart of syrup. That turned out to be the perfect amount for me. I used it on pancakes every Sunday morning and as the sweetener in my homemade bread. It was super easy and I'm looking forward to doing it again. Right now I'm in the middle of jelly making.
Oh that’s so perfect! Love the idea of using it in bread! We use honey and maple syrup as sweeteners to replace refined sugar, too! Lydia from CCL brought up some mayhaw jelly and it was delicious! I’m going to give jelly making a try this fall!
Hi! We've never heard that.. we'll have to look into it. Although I highly doubt our 3 hives will have much impact on the wild bee population in our area.
@@TheLiFeInPines They are not actively chasing them away but they compete for the same food sources so if there are a lot of honey bees present the wild bees don't get enough food. Honey bees are said to be much more efficient at gathering nectar.
Yes that’s what I read, too, after looking into it. And I 100% believe that honeybees are more efficient at gathering and storing the nectar. They are so fascinating. Political, organized, everyone has their specific job.
I live in the Netherlands and all wild bee races are threatend here. We don't have large areas with wild flowers left. We have 359 species of wild bees and about 55% of the races are on the edge of extinction. So they don't need the competition of honey bees.
Hey you guys, one of those puppies needs to be in Willow Alaska, Just sayin 😂, anyway looks great you guys I love watching your videos I was taken off guard when I saw the doc there lol 😮, God Bless you guys those pups are so adorable, you Alaskan Brother🙏❤️you guys are great together 😊, no sweat on the job specially insta 😂😂😂, I have a bee hive here and i don’t think you want to to get to close to them though lol
Hey James! All the puppies are with their forever families... except for one... who stayed right here on the Asuma Lake Farm. You'll see him on the next video! Lol the Doc... Not a doc (though he could be.. he's THAT smart and good at what he does... even though he'd never admit it!) Hahaha the insta sweat.. the worst kind! Are your bees angry and aggressive lil ladies? We have saskatraz and they are pretty docile!
@@TheLiFeInPines my bees are not honeybees they are just mean, they don’t tolerate anything and I don’t mess with them and lol, Love you guys, you’re all an amazing team
just got back from cleaning my Air bnb....they stole one of my rugs..oh well...I started out with white towels and washclothes ,,,lol..that was a joke...I have a lot of construction guys..you can imagine...so........I have gone brown.
Oh my goodness! They must've really liked that rug! That is crazy. I've heard all the horror stories from AirBNB owners. Yikes.. Hoping for the best! As for the towels.. it may very well go that way here, too! We'll see!
If Ted won’t listen to me when I tell him to quit cutting fishing line with his teeth, and keep the screws out of his mouth, I’d bet he probably won’t listen to you either. 🤣 He’ll learn the hard way!

We think so too! 🥰
Getting to the end point! One day at a time! ❤
Thats exactly right!
Beautiful job...beautiful family...wow..thanks for saying pine needles and pine cones...it lifts my spirits!❤❤❤❤👍🏻
Awe thank you!! You're too kind! Haha It's the best when Ted says it! And we're still waiting for them to come out with a pinecone emoji!!!

REAL progress... Just gotta luv it! 😊🎉
Woo Hoo!! YESSS!
Awesome video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
The little house has come so far, looking outstanding.
The puppies make me want one😮
Yes it has! Getting so close. The pups were so fun to have around... they're pretty irresistible, aren't they!?!
@@TheLiFeInPines we just lost our 17 year old beagle. Gonna enjoy some freedom for a while.
Awe I’m so sorry to hear that! Is always so difficult when we lose one of our pups! They become such a big part of your family!
great work making sense and beautiful litter of pups with this great family
Thank you so much! Ted and I both appreciate that!
Congrats on another room complete! Love the butcher block countertop! I can't believe the progress you guys have made from when you first started. Everything is looking fantastic.
Mike
Thank you! Yes it’s crazy to look back and see how far we’ve come!
Looking great!!
Thanks, Hillary!! 🥰
Hi guy’s! The butcher block & bathroom looks beautiful! Great job with the 🐝! Fancy cuts Teddy did also😮. ❤you guys!🙏🙏🙏Blessing’s from Northern NJ
Hi Laura, and thank you! Haha yes I knew he could pull off those fancy cuts! Of course hooray for the bees! Thanks for watching and supporting us! We appreciate it!

Take a bread tie and tie that light up higher while you are working.
lol It's tied up as high as it can go! We've even tried it obnoxiously low... which works to prevent running into it, but it's always in the way then. 🤣
“You just made me instasweat” CLASSIC 🤣🤣🤣 I LOVE how the bathroom turned out!!! And I just love watching how well y’all work together ❤❤❤
Haha! Ohh the instasweat! It's true.. he freaked me out with the water pipes! And thank you! It's all starting to come together!
@@TheLiFeInPines I (we) can’t wait to see it all finished!!!
I use a white wax crayon to fill nail holes. Of course only if the trim is white .
Oh yes, we've seen Doug from @DIYfferent use one! I may try that... I think it would save a lot of time and be a heck of a lot easier than using caulk!
Things are really shaping up! Bathroom is lovely!
The puppy in the bowl 🥹❤️ definitely wanted! I’d take that cutie in a heartbeat if we could.
Thank you, Katie! We appreciate that! I know... little Winks in that water dish.. so stinking cute!! So glad we have those memories with them all! She did find a wonderful home!
Loved your video!! Love the house redo. Makes me want to redo my house. Still missing northern Minnesota!! Memories!!
Awe thanks so much, Stacy! No better place to be than Northern MN in the summertime!!
