  1. Where abouts in California is the expo you were referring to and when? You'll be in my neck of woods. Love you all and don't be concerned about comments or opinions of people. The only opinion we should care about is the Lord's. Hugs

  2. Have a great time at the Expo, and a safe trip. You cover your bases with Ethel watching over it all, LOL! (Just watch, she will be telling the folks coming to do the chores that SHE is the boss, haha!) Almost forgot to say, I grew up in a large family. My Dad bought an old school bus, and made it into our traveling/camping home when we went on the road. We loved it, and our cousins tell us now, that we are grown, they all wished their families had one. 😀

  3. Justin Rhodes has a converted school bus for sale, at least I believe its still for sale. Perhaps this will help with your future plans involving your entire family. Keep up what you do! I, as well as many others, look forward to your homestead adventures.

  4. Your boys (fuzzy and not) are beautiful!! The human ones will treasure and appreciate the life you've blessed them with, always. You absolutely DO inspire and encourage, in SO many ways. I am thankful that I stumbled upon your channel – I subscribe and now binge-watch (to catch up) every chance I get. My hands are in the earth a lot more now than ever before. After thinking I no longer had hopes & dreams, you have given that back to me and put joy back into my soul. There are no words appropriate for expressing the thanks I have to you for that. I garden on a smaller scale than y'all and would say I'd like to go bigger, but age is not kind to a youthful mind! But you're never too old to learn, and I changed my goals and mindset, and I am now blissfully happy with my little blessing of an acre. I study your videos like I'm in gardening college, so please… GO FORTH AND BRING BACK WISDOM! Love all of you and what you do. Peace and joy ✌❤

  5. Burnout is as real for Homesteaders, as it is for the regular nine to five, crowd. It doesn't hurt to shake things up for the short term, to make it through the long term.

  6. My Goodness, life is to short, you make sure everything is taken care of, so don’t pay any attention to those people. Y’all are doing a great job enjoy your life. I see absolutely nothing wrong with anything y’all are doing
    Keep up the good work ❤️

  7. Hi there, I don't know very much about homesteading or you tubing but I would think that these are both businesses and the way that you provide for your family. There will always be, unfortunately, negative people and I think the best thing to do is to ignore them, don't give explanations, this is your life and no one has the right to tell you how to live it! Only you and your husband know what is best for you and your children so why give time and energy to someone who is probably extremely opinionated yet has a shallow and empty life. Be proud of who you are and the life you lead. E UK

  8. You should always do what’s right for you and your family.. Listen to what’s within you not the opposite. Enjoy your lives. You all look happy. Keep doing what you’re doing until you want to do something different! Peace

  9. May I ask on your Alpacas what do you do with them? I’m not a farmer. They are beautiful but do you ea them or just use their hair? Also people go on trips or vacations when they want you can to. Thanks

  10. I love how the alpacas always seem to have a piece of grass or hay just nonchalantly hanging off them. Live your life how it works best for your family. You don’t have to explain your choices.

  11. You owe zero explanation! We watch your channel and we love you and are grateful for the whole life you show us! I’m not a homesteader. I’m a retired educator and I garden and have never gone to church. I’m not going now either but I’m so grateful for the insight and you have all showed me a path towards a more wonderful relationship with God. I’m retired because of heart disease and struggling with depression because if many reasons and now I start everyday watching your wonderful videos and marveling at how relaxed and happy I feel while watching you!
