My husband is still hanging on. Please pray that when we bring him home on Home Hospice we can take care of him as there is no insurance for some things we need. :(
I never comment , but I just had to tell you I’m so proud of you marina .. your struggles you are slaying !! Organizing , cleaning , all meal prepping . Wow you are doing great and you inspire me ! I watched your husband story and it truly moved me how he never give up on you ! He prayed for you . Amazing .. his story and how he persevered and look at you two . God Bless you and your family !!!!
I read ur comment and now I have to go watch that video. These 2 people are deeply good hearted and I love them for sharing what a HEALTHY marriage can look like when there is GOD involved
I don't think there's actually anything wrong with vanity, it just depends who you're doing it for. If it's for other people then no, it's a negative. However I love making myself look nice, for ME! 😁 I Feel so good about myself when I do my hair, put on a little makeup and a nice outfit. It makes me feel really bright & uplifted 🤩
Yes there is a major difference between self care /confidence vs vanity / arrogance. You are right and so is Rena too in wanting to avoid ever having vanity in her heart. Because she has spoken of a past time in her life where she did struggle with that & it hurt people she loved & it hurt herself - she said god helped her see that. I love how she owns her mistakes too like every real person with a good heart does. That makes her even more beautiful too I think. As real beauty is of the soul from the inside that radiates outward. But you are so right too in wanting to boost her confidence or any woman reading your comment ...to not feel worried about vanity & it's OK to care about your appearance for the right reasons u mentioned. Since Marina says she has overcome vanity & can see it for what it is to avoid it, and like you, be able to wear makeup, do her hair nails etc for fashion fun self confidence and self care without it going to a bad place instead. That's also a super thing for a good woman of love, power, & respect to strive for too. I commend both of you ladies insight. ✌️
An hour long 🎉! Yes, please! Lol If y’all wouldn’t mind saying a prayer for me, I’m hoping to officially launch my candle business in May! It’s been a long time coming but I think God has finally opened that door for me to really do this! Thank you ❤
Oh my gosh! Merina, you are so full of energy and uplifting! I adore everything you and your husband are doing. Your creativity and sense of humor are fantastic. Thank you for sharing your life and ideas with us. I love your”chicken foot” too!❤
Shane's love for you is so romantic. I have a similar husband and I appreciate him that much more through your mirroring life. You have to be friends, respect eachother and laugh❤
😂😂 I always think he sounds like George Gray - this is a 2.5 ounce jar of peanut butter spread, a 7 ounce can of steamed tomatoes, and finally make your night a good night w these peppermint breath mints 😂😂😂 It's a neat talent to have lol
Me! It was me that sent you those palettes and some other makeup. I am so happy you like it! ❤ And I don't care what you say, you are gorgeous inside & out. And you're excellent with your makeup skills too. The "oh baby, baby" cracked me up! Have your kids read Amelia Bedila books? Those were always my favorite.
@Summer Smith thank you! I heard her say on video or on an Inst story that she had left a lot of her makeup behind on a trip they went on. Well, I had a lot of unused palettes, and I had a few things I purchased to send to her. I LOVE to share my bounty! 🙂
Another author I love is Judy Blume. Fudge, Super Fudge, Tales of Fourth Grade Nothing. Freckle Juice, and Soupy Saturdays. All so good and appropriate for younger kids! ♡
You should be very proud of yourself for raising your children right. Those babies are so well behaved. I love it. Keep it up Momma. You're doing a fantastic job!!!
Makeup tip❗️ when your foundation is too dark just put it where you would put bronzer and then put your concealer where you want to highlight and then blend in the lighter areas first then with the same sponge or brush blend in the darker areas. You will use a lot less foundation and you probably won't have to coat your whole neck and chest 😅🤗🤗
While I was watching you do your make-up and talking about being vain, it brought to mind a struggle I went through during Covid. Background I have always suffered with my self esteem and as a result RARELY left home without makeup once I became a teen. During Covid I started to feel a release from being ruled by my insecurity since I wasn’t worked about makeup at home or with a mask. So o thought it was a positive but, I found myself in a depression magnified by Covid. All this to say in the passed few months I’ve started wearing makeup again and I realized it gives me a positive boost. You know like dressing for success or just adding a touch of something that gives me a little boost. I now know I don’t need it to feel good about me but that I enjoy it! Just thought I’d share. Gods been doing a work on me! He has brought me through that dark place and I’m now on the correct med combo. Have a blessed day ✝️
You can wear make up, & be humble & beautiful at the same time. ❤️ My darling husband always loved that I did my make up. I was a busy productive mom as well. He loved me (if I did my make up or not) what I’m trying to say is ~ there’s nothing wrong with looking beautiful and functional at the same time. (my sweet husband was one of the first city workers to pass away of Covid, miss him every day. God rest his beautiful soul.) 🙏🏻Gods blessings love Staten Island, New York.
At 67 (young Feeling) But I always watch your makeup “ tutorials “ You make it so much easier and my 79 year old husband loves it SO a big thank you❤️❤️❤️😟
When life is stressfull I love to click on your channel. And everything is so much better I love you guys!!! Your the best family channel I have ever watched.
Girl I absolutely love watching your videos! You are such a wonderful human being! Even my young boys love watching your videos especially when Shane is being goofy!!! God bless you sweet girl!
You are gorgeous!!! Your light shines so brightly, Shane’s also! Just something from my childhood. My mom would make an Angel Food cake, combine Cool Whip and chocolate pudding, cut the cake in half, “ice” the cake and the one layer with the mixture, and that would be dessert on Sundays after church. It was so delicious, light and airy. I grew up before convenience foods were available so the cake was homemade, whipped cream was home made and the pudding was cooked on the stove. It was time consuming for my mom but she did it because that was her love language. You guys are great and such an example of God’s love! 💙
❤🎉😂 what a fun video! Busy but so real! I love seeing Cammie coming out of his shell, and engaging so much! The kiddos are growing up so fast and beautiful! After 4o years of marriage I definitely agree that making compromises to spend quality time together is always worth the effort, and honestly you did seem to enjoy letting go and playing video games with Shane. The two of you definitely put the effort into making even hard projects fun, which without a sense of humor we would kill each other here doing some things! ❤ love,hugs and giggles! ❤🎉😂
Another great video! I couldn't help but chuckle hearing a child's laughter while you and your husband were playing the video game. I'm so envious of how fast Cammie hair grows. It would take me years to get to his length. He has such pretty hair. Glad to see that you all are doing well and very happy. Can't wait to see the updated in your home. Have a wonderful evening
My 13 year old son is an avid reader, I was going broke buying brand new books so I started hitting our local thrift store and I was getting books fir as low as 25 cents. Then I just donate them back 👍 Oh....I hope you and. Cammy didn't miss too much of the movie.
I love watching you with your family! Just a suggestion for the remotes get some key finder things, you can attach them to your remotes and they chime so you can find them.
Girl you make my days so much happier. I love how down to earth you are and you have given me joy. Thank you. You are so beautiful inside and out. Thank you for helping me with my own self image and confidence. God's blessings on you and your family.
I watched your video when you made French toast and froze it. I just did this the other day to use up bread. I make the French toast as usual (sometimes I make French toast sticks) and put them on a cookie sheet and freeze. Then I put them in freezer bags and they’re not stuck together and easier to heat up and eat. I love watching your videos. We live in a 16x80 mobile home also and love it! Retired with children grown and 13 grandchildren and 17 great grandchildren and blessed!
I love your channel! I used to over buy, loved books and have broke the habit! Have you thought about going to the library versus always buying books? Library time can be great family time and keep you from buying too much that causes the piles…I love all the decluttering you have been doing. So proud of you that you took books back to get a credit! I remember you saying you hated the hassle of returning things. Good for you for following through!
Your girls are precious. I read to my girls and that’s the best way to teach them. If you learn to love to read you can learn anything and go on lots of adventures in a book. You are so beautiful! I live in Tennessee and I sure wish I lived near you. I’m about to turn 60 and I need some serious makeup tips. Another great video! God bless your sweet family! Leslye
The video game segment was so awesome. And I loved the way you had your hair up when you were taking your makuep on the next day. It looked so cute that way!
I just love your sweet family Merina! Even though I’m much older than you I still learn from you. You inspire me to do better. And girl, When you fix up you look amazing! You look great all the time but with makeup you a knockout! I’m sure your sweetie Shane notices too! Love seeing your shopping trip to buy the books. It’s awesome that all the kids love to read.
You look beautiful!💜 Such a beautiful woman inside and out. The house looks amazing! You are doing awesome on keeping up with all of your new routines. I love you! Have a great weekend💙💗
Let me tell your family have came so far...I just love your lovely family you have done great. And you are so beautiful inside and out along with your family. I LOVE WATCHING YOUR family. PUTS ME IN A GREAT MOOD. Thanks for sharing is caring. GOD bless your all ❤🎉
I just want to tell you marina you and shane inspire me so much! All you have been through and stronger everyday! You really hit home about doing what he likes to spend time together and he reading to do same with you! My 12 year marriage is in rut I know he knows it we love each other immensely just got stuck. Thank you for reminding me to share in his loves language ! You are absolutely beautiful inside and out and you and Shane are real! Thank you for reminding me of what's special and important!
Hey Merina I fairly new but I have watch you & your gorgeous husband of person & father , but girl how you learned put on makeup is Amazing I love your decorating skills & your family LOVE ❤️ for Jesus Christ Thank you 🙏 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Merina thank you for sharing about not being as concerned with your looks as the inside and who you are. I know it is hard as women for us not to compare ourselves or to put ourselves down. I mean we all age eventually and I know learning to accept ourselves is important. I am almost 55 and there are times I can be harder I am sure on myself than I need to be. I do not wear makeup as often as i did when I was younger. I must admit the hardest thing for me is exercising. I have to force myself as i do not like to. Enjoying watching your video tonight. Today was a hard day mental wise and nice to see your sweet face.
Marina just be you and I just love your kindness and spiritual strength on your channel. You are making a difference with every step of your life as you continue your path in life that God has you on. Your makeup is on point,I don’t wear much makeup because I sweat so easily and it just comes off. Need to try some of the products you use. Blessings to you and your precious family ❤❤
I don’t usually do this… but me and my family need prayer. Our financial situation has been bad for the last few months which leads to more problems in my marriage and home. I’m hoping and praying that God will come through for us. We have 3 kids and some days I don’t even know how we make it but we do. Your videos inspire me. Love you and your family.
Rina I’ve been meaning to tell you my Mom lost a bunch of weight on the WW plan. A huge thing she started substituting was ground turkey for ground beef. With seasoning even our biggest ground beef advocate in the family couldn’t tell the difference. Way less fat and it’s so so so good in virtually any meal you would use ground beef in. Love the video darling! Always rooting for you!
Girl, you've got one of my favorite TH-cam channels that I never miss. You and Shane are awesome people and so fun to watch! BTW, I'm practically your neighbor in Johnson city, Tennessee. 👋👋
You are so beautiful, Merina! Dr Pepper is my guilty pleasure, too. Loved the hauls. Looks like you got a lot of meals in your hauls. That's really nice of you to shop for Granny.❤️
Amazon has some really neat clear acrylic wall shelves for books. A set of 4 is like $17. They are thin and holds a lot but I like them because they are clear and blend into your wall. We love books! ❤
I'd like to hear more about how you humbled yourself with the whole vanity thing. I was never super vain, never liked the attention I got if I fixed myself up. I then gained a lot of weight when I got pregnant and it stuck around. People treat you different but I don't let it bother me because life isn't about looking good. It has humbled me though and I'm thankful for that. Not saying people should be overweight and I am trying to lose weight but it has helped me in a way I never expected.
I can go into more detail soon! 😊 it was hard, one of the hardest things I have had to do and that sounds stupid but the chokehold vanity had on me was no joke
Merina, I loved watching your GRWM! I also love that you value your inner beauty. That is much harder to maintain, but so much richer and more valuable-you also looked pretty as a picture😘😘😘
Merina, your a pro with applying you makeup. You looked amazing. I always end up with teardrops whenever I put on eyeliner 😂 I enjoy every video you post and can’t wait for the next one. ❤y’all!!
Good afternoon Marina you are so true, don't care what people say be yourself you are beautiful inside out God made everyone special in there own way be proud of yourself, God bless ❤️
Girlllll!!!!!!!! This was a good video! I love watching you guys have family time! Look at you guys shopping and McKays and letting the kids hav a say so in what they want as well as what you want them to get The grocery haul is always spot on and it makes me want to do a video as well Thank you guys Love you all ~Anna~ ♥️
My husband is still hanging on. Please pray that when we bring him home on Home Hospice we can take care of him as there is no insurance for some things we need. :(
WE ARE PRAYING. Do you need me to help find resources in your area friend? I can make some phone calls!
Praying!!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Praying for you all. You can do this you'll find strength that you never knew you had I promise..
You all are in my prayers Ms Donna. What can we help you with sweetie. ✝️🙏🏻❤️
I'm curious as to what kind of tattoo you have on your chest now.
Merina, your videos started popping up over the last couple of days, and I cannot stop watching! You are so real and down to earth. Love it!
I never comment , but I just had to tell you I’m so proud of you marina .. your struggles you are slaying !! Organizing , cleaning , all meal prepping . Wow you are doing great and you inspire me !

Praise God
That is great news. Sending prayers 🙏🙏🙏
GIRL, i love how funny and real you are. it's so refreshing. i'm so tired of seeing fake on youtube. thank you for your content!!
Your shelves on each side of your fireplace should become your own library. The love of reading a book is underrated and books should be showcased! 😁
Yes! I love that.
Yes they are pretty uze for something. I love that cheetah outfit
Yes! A library would be perfect 📚 📖
🥰
I absolutely agree! Books are the minds escape.. to anywhere,any time,any adventure ♡
And if she turned the books around to the page side, they’ll look more neutral

Sending prayers
@@mariahknisley4916 thank you so much 😊
I love candles. When you're ready, let us know where we can order from. Have a great day love!
@@ajallen5220 you’re incredible! I sure will! Thank you, AJ!
That's amazing I wish you luck & much success @Life w/ Michelle!
Oh my gosh! Merina, you are so full of energy and uplifting! I adore everything you and your husband are doing. Your creativity and sense of humor are fantastic. Thank you for sharing your life and ideas with us. I love your”chicken foot” too!❤
Shane's love for you is so romantic. I have a similar husband and I appreciate him that much more through your mirroring life. You have to be friends, respect eachother and laugh❤
I always laugh when Shane is surprised when he does the grocery hauls and sees what Merina ordered 😂😂
😂😂 I always think he sounds like George Gray - this is a 2.5 ounce jar of peanut butter spread, a 7 ounce can of steamed tomatoes, and finally make your night a good night w these peppermint breath mints
😂😂😂 It's a neat talent to have lol
Me! It was me that sent you those palettes and some other makeup. I am so happy you like it! ❤
And I don't care what you say, you are gorgeous inside & out. And you're excellent with your makeup skills too.
The "oh baby, baby" cracked me up!
Have your kids read Amelia Bedila books? Those were always my favorite.
That was so sweet & kind of you to send her palettes @Jodi Girl!
P.s. we've read Amelia Bedila they are too cute! My daughter just donated a lot though so I can't remember if she still has any left.
@Summer Smith thank you! I heard her say on video or on an Inst story that she had left a lot of her makeup behind on a trip they went on. Well, I had a lot of unused palettes, and I had a few things I purchased to send to her. I LOVE to share my bounty! 🙂
Yes! Amelia Bedelia books are such fun!! I second Joke's recommendation😊
Another author I love is Judy Blume. Fudge, Super Fudge, Tales of Fourth Grade Nothing. Freckle Juice, and Soupy Saturdays. All so good and appropriate for younger kids! ♡
You should be very proud of yourself for raising your children right. Those babies are so well behaved. I love it. Keep it up Momma. You're doing a fantastic job!!!
Cammie just always makes my heart so happy seeing him be more vocal such an angel❤
Makeup tip❗️ when your foundation is too dark just put it where you would put bronzer and then put your concealer where you want to highlight and then blend in the lighter areas first then with the same sponge or brush blend in the darker areas.

You've taught me more about makeup in the first few min of this video than all of the other videos I've watched combined. Tyvm
I would love to see you as a family read “Thunder Cake” and make it as you read! I always did this with my students, so fun.
My 13 year old son is an avid reader, I was going broke buying brand new books so I started hitting our local thrift store and I was getting books fir as low as 25 cents. Then I just donate them back 👍 Oh....I hope you and. Cammy didn't miss too much of the movie.

Hang in there Merina. You can do it.
You have the sweetest family keep up the good work.
Rina I’ve been meaning to tell you my Mom lost a bunch of weight on the WW plan. A huge thing she started substituting was ground turkey for ground beef. With seasoning even our biggest ground beef advocate in the family couldn’t tell the difference. Way less fat and it’s so so so good in virtually any meal you would use ground beef in. Love the video darling! Always rooting for you!
Merina and Shane playing video games,,comical. Shane doing the grocery haul, hilarious. I absolutely adore you guys and the kiddo's too. ❤ From Boston
U girl are such a beautiful person inside and out. Bless your heart
Girl, you've got one of my favorite TH-cam channels that I never miss. You and Shane are awesome people and so fun to watch! BTW, I'm practically your neighbor in Johnson city, Tennessee. 👋👋
You are so beautiful, Merina! Dr Pepper is my guilty pleasure, too. Loved the hauls. Looks like you got a lot of meals in your hauls. That's really nice of you to shop for Granny.❤️
OH!! I know what level y’all are on! I’m not a player either, but this is one my husband plays with me also and I love it! ❤
Great video!! Super entertaining! It's so nice as homemakers to just get dressed and have a fun weekend out and about! ❤
Hi Merina & Shane! Love you guys!! Beautiful Family 💛
Watching from Michigan…Kim
You are so wise beyond your years ❤
Sam’s club pizzas in their food court are amazing. Every time we shop at Sam’s we grab a pizza on the way out for dinner and it’s super affordable
Your my favorite TH-camr since I found our channel a few days ago
Your cleaning videos have helped me a lot
Amazon has some really neat clear acrylic wall shelves for books. A set of 4 is like $17. They are thin and holds a lot but I like them because they are clear and blend into your wall. We love books! ❤
Your natural face is so pretty but this makeup makes you look so different and glamorously gorgeous 😍
I enjoyed all the things in the video! Can't wait for the updates to the house !! ❤❤❤❤
Hope y'all are having a great weekend.
I have that same shower curtain. Got to love amazon 🙃Your family is too cute!
oh migoodness totally have that gown it's so comfy and soft and I love the pockets.
I'd like to hear more about how you humbled yourself with the whole vanity thing. I was never super vain, never liked the attention I got if I fixed myself up. I then gained a lot of weight when I got pregnant and it stuck around. People treat you different but I don't let it bother me because life isn't about looking good. It has humbled me though and I'm thankful for that. Not saying people should be overweight and I am trying to lose weight but it has helped me in a way I never expected.
I can go into more detail soon! 😊 it was hard, one of the hardest things I have had to do and that sounds stupid but the chokehold vanity had on me was no joke
You are beautiful gal,and I can see you both are great parents, and your children are so cute,and well behaved,and smart
Hi merina and Shane. Great shopping haul. thank you for taking us along. I enjoy seeing these hauls!! Great video!!😔❤😊
I recently subscribed and I'm obsessed 😂 I love everything about y'all 🥰 Thank you so much for all you do ❤
Merina, I loved watching your GRWM! I also love that you value your inner beauty. That is much harder to maintain, but so much richer and more valuable-you also looked pretty as a picture😘😘😘
I love mckays! It is an amazing homeschool resource! As is the library!
Merina, your a pro with applying you makeup. You looked amazing. I always end up with teardrops whenever I put on eyeliner 😂 I enjoy every video you post and can’t wait for the next one. ❤y’all!!
Good afternoon Marina you are so true, don't care what people say be yourself you are beautiful inside out God made everyone special in there own way be proud of yourself, God bless ❤️
