I just want to let you know that I LOVE that you plant a zillion bulbs and that you have and abundance of beautiful pots! I love seeing all the garden equipment that you have and how you use it and the smiles that it brings to Benjamin when he wants to help out or go for a ride. I love that you feed your chickens with all kinds of vegetables and you use vegetables for other things to make the world beautiful. I love your family and the example you show of what a family that works together looks like and what they can achieve. I love that people can see the results after many years of all the work, teaching, patients and prays that both your parents so obviously poured into you, Laura and Aaron, and that you in return are passing that onto Benjamin and your soon to be new baby girl. Thank you for living life so openly and allowing others to see your talents, whether it is planting a plant, making a wreath, flying a drone, or making a video and matching it to the perfect music. P.S. I also love animals! Thank you for giving Russell and Cheddar a dream life. Love, food, shelter, and freedom, the world would be a different place if every animal and human had those thing. Merry Christmas to you all and I pray blessings over all your families and also that 2021 will be a year that you double in wisdom, double in subscribers, double in talent and double in income!! 😀
These gifts you receive represent an overwhelming amount of love and caring from your viewing family. It seems it is becoming overwhelming for you, and I hope the Garden Answer Family will consider making donations instead, in honor of you, Aaron, Benjamin, and Baby Girl - to the Treasure Valley Children's Relief Center, or any organization or charity. There are so many organizations and individuals in such great need. When a donation is received in someone's honor, a note is sent to that person letting them know they have been honored. This would be such a beautiful way for us to show our love and appreciation for you and your family. We should Spread The Love - as you yourself always seem to do. ❤❤❤❤❤
Agreed. The intention is wonderful and full of love, but I know I came away from that Mail #2 thinking "wow, this is getting quite excessive". Notes, custom gifts, etc. makes sense, but basic clothes, appliances, tools, toys, etc. could definitely go to people in actual need of them.
People, please stop judging others on how they manage their pets. These cats are CLEARLY happy in their lives, and could not have a more responsible owner. If they wanted to be inside they would be howling at the door. Please just PLEASE keep your judgmental comments to yourself.
I totally agree. Russell & Cheddar have the best life. I love seeing them in the videos and I am not a cat person. Some have the tendency to go places that is not necessary.
Thank you Aaron and Laura. You’re so positive in how you deal with the silly comments and questions you receive. Above all else you are a great source of inspiration and kindness. Merry Christmas!
I think some questions are silly, but some come from people who are concerned,... like with the cats.......Laura answered it perfectly and now the person who asked the question knows that Russel and Cheddar are much loved.
Love how Aaron participated even more this time. You both do so well together. I think it is a great idea for him to do a vlog while on maternity leave 😁
I rescued a cat that had been dumped on the street in the cold. She had tons of health issues. I'm allergic, so I gave her to my mom after getting her healthy. She walked into my mom's house, curled up on my mom's lap, and never showed any interest in going outside again. Cats are very clear about what they want.
I was taking care of A older lady, she also have a cat ,after a while of me taking care of the Cat, her daughter said I was the only one the Cat cares about lol ,she use to wait at the door inside the house for me ❤
We have 4 all feral rescues and one is handicapped and they could care less about going outside it’s also not safe for them to either where we live. They all are happy campers who sound like a heard of elephants when they play
Yes they live longer indoors. All Vets have told me that. I’ve lost several over the yrs to cars, dogs, poison. I learned my lesson & the boys stay in. Plus I don’t worry about ticks & fleas.
The giving of a gift is a way to show you are thinking of someone. It is a tangible piece of a moment of thought. Though the item may not stay with you, the memory always will. The truth of a gift is that someone was thinking of you!
Flower Hill Farm and You Can't Eat the Grass are my favorite smaller garden channels. So kind of you to ask! It's gratifying to see such a supportive and positive community.
Hello Aaron&Laura, You are all so dear! It is a joy for us to see God work in &through your lives&as He blesses you, watching your family, garden and lives grow.Please realize, this is His ministry through you! As you learn, as you lean on Him, others see & gain faith. In a tough year, you have been a balm to souls.
Give yourself all the time you need for your baby girl. We all understand. Those first few weeks are so precious. Praying for a safe and healthy delivery!
Your cats have the best life! I love watching them wandering through the plants and enjoying the falling snow. Or squeezing next to you for some camera time. They live happy lives😊
My favorite part is that when you get those negative passive aggressive comments, you address them with laughter! It's so uplifting. You can't change the envy or hate in people's hearts, but you don't have to let it poison your happiness. Your positive energy is such a huge inspiration Laura and Aaron!
Thank you for all of your inspiration. Blessing to you and your families at this exciting time! Take all the time you need. We can catch up on past videos while you take a break.
I appreciate your taking the time to answer questions. I may not comment a lot, but I watch and learn. Have I tried any of the things you've done? No, because I am 72 and not well. Besides my husband kills everything I plant with weed killer. The man should really be in a desert. Thank you very much for sharing. Happy Holidays and stay safe.
Facebook is crap. They don't care about all these scammers! You take care of yourself and your family. I enjoy going through old videos! Such a joy 😹. Merry Christmas to you and your family ❤️. All the best ❣️😺 for new baby coming soon.
If you haven't brought this up on your main channel, maybe you should, as you have over 800,000 more subscribers on the main channel who haven't seen the warnings on your highlights channel.
She has said something before on the main channel. They, the scammers come and go I'm sure. When you think everything is going well then they strike again. Just so much for the 2 of them to worry about. When MOST youtubers I watch never say a word about scammers. I think Laura and Aaron are the first and by the way are doing a great job!
@@phyllisroark8526 Several youtubers and Facebook people that I watch contend with scammers. Its hard to understand that people still fall for these thieves since it really goes back to land line telephone days. Same scenario. Different technologies.
I can see your genuinely beautiful heart when you speak.❤️ Your diligence, hard work, and positive attitude is refreshing and much appreciated! MERRY CHRISTMAS and aloha from Hawaii!🌴
Aaron shouldn't worry about a ''creative'' display area. The work you guys have done to your home , and property show the creativity and all his work to light it highlights that creativity with a beauty that is stunning. It was so beautiful and I feel certain that many, many others loved it too. You guys nailed it !! Merry Christmas !!
Re: wasting food as decoration, i think it's much better to use something biodegradable like fruit and then compost out when you stop using it than using plastic decorations that will clutter the earth forever!
Bravo! FACT: 40% of food produced in the USA alone is going to waste - landfills! FACT: 10 Million tons of produce goes UNHARVESTED every year!

I absolutely love your recap videos, especially lately where Aaron has a microphone! You guys should title the videos “weekly recap with Laura and Aaron”! This is absolutely my favorite channel to watch! The inspiration and ideas for me to use as a starting point on so many random things, is amazing! I know I could never plant 5000 tulip bulbs, but the idea of putting them in pots is amazing! Thank you for sharing your vision and inspiration with us!
I didn't feel that Russell and Cheddar were out in the cold. I took it that they were just looking out the doorway at the snow. I actually loved that little part. My daughter's cat gets left out in the cold if she doesn't come back after being called. Then she'll come in eat and then want to go back out. Anyone one can tell they are being well taken care of.
I would love to see @missorchidgirl or @lauralovesucculents would be amazing! I think of you guys as family so thank you! for highlighting other amazing people
O M G… the lights are absolutely amazing! Totally creative and beautifully done. I cannot imagine how long that would have taken. Be proud of what you have done, both of you!
Jim Putnam is fantastic!!! Erin is good for truly “ impatience”. You guys are fab but you do SO big it can be had to relate but oh so beautiful to watch.
Aaron, the entire light display is AMAZING. The WOW factor comes in with the collection of all of the lights together. You did an unbelievable job. It was so thoroughly enjoyable watching it. I watched it several times. 🎄☺️
Laura, I have learned so much about how to create layers in the garden and make my garden look more varied and enjoyable. I have no where near the land you have but you really inspire me!
Thank you for all you do. COVID-19 era depression was eliminated for me by watching your channel most mornings. Blessing for next years new Petunias and new baby girl.
I have to share that I was at my local Gardener supply today picking up a couple things and my son noticed they had one of your video's playing and had to point it out to me since I watch all your videos and sometimes he will watch them with me. you are such an inspiration.
Ok Laura, I have been watching your channel for a good while now. I have a small acreage and even less money but have been gardening my whole life. But your information and knowledge have inspired and allowed me to start my own seedlings and build myself a tiny cold frame. This allowed me to have a lot more flowers and garden vegetables this year than I have ever been able to in the past! I even shared with neighbors. I loved it. I was so proud and enjoyed it so much. So keep inspiring. Keep planting those 100 petunias! Thank you!
I love watching both of you interact. You are both so respectful when you talk, even when you disagree. It reminds me of my own happy marriage. Thank you for showing people that marriages don't have to be what "Hollywood" puts into movies and shows. Have a happy New Year!
Hello Laura and Aaron. I just wanted to say thank you so much for this channel. I found it earlier, last January and have been a fan ever since. You have inspired me to give flower growing a try. But because my ground is so rocky and poor, I am using large containers. I've been picking them up at the end of the growing seasons at places like Rural King and Menards, even Walmart. I'm trying to get very large pots that I can lift into my SUV to take home. I planted up several of them with bulk Tulip bulbs like 60 + in a planter and can't wait for spring when I can put them out and watch them grow and display for all the neighbors to see. You have introduced me to Espomia products and Now have bags or all the TONES and 20 bags of Land and see Compost! I got seeds from Johnny's and Eden Brothers. I can't wait to start start showing off my flower in my front lawn, which is a knoll so they will be off the road and closer to the cabin. I might however, place a large pot or two down near the mailbox and plant them with something fun like Zinnias or maybe even Lavender. I work about 60 hours a week so containers is the way for me to go right now until I decide to move to a flatter piece of land and can put in a real garden. But because of you, I have been so excited. I am wishing you the very best for the coming year with you ever growing family.
And you have TONS of videos for me to watch from the past! I saw a great succulent planting you did in 2014! And Like how tos for drip system, favorite plants, etc, etc etc
I sort of agree. I think cats are a lot like us. They're all different. One of mine is a trooper. The other one has a dedicated space heater ( I brought her home as a sick half frozen kitten).
Laura, I love how pragmatic you are. I’ve started reminding myself to “raise the ordinary to extraordinary.” Thanks to you and your Mom for that one. Merry Christmas! PS The gravel versus pavement negotiations make me laugh every time. Just so relatable. ❤️
This year is finally almost over. We just wanted to thank you for all the inspiration. We tackled our drip systems for the flower beds and they are so much better now. They waste much less water than the ones we were using. We also installed new landscape lighting and we planted lots of different types of shrubs and other plants. We were both so excited about it all. You were our inspiration. We hope you have a Merry Christmas and enjoy this time counting down to welcoming your baby.
Totally Love your big projects and 100’s of flowers !!!! I get the point ! INSPIRATION !! FUN TO WATCH, especially “someone” doing all the hard work and taking it all on ☺️☺️☺️
Wishing you and yours a blessed Christmas. You all are so special to me and all of your other followers. Please do not worry about what kind of schedule you will be keeping the rest of this year and through when baby girl is born. We will miss you terribly, but I am sure everyone understands and wants what is best for you and your family. It will be even more special when you are able to release a video. Take care and thank you for all that you, Aaron, Benjamin, Russell and Cheddar do.
I love watching your big projects and I take inspiration from them even though my space is very limited. I’ve grown so many plants that I first saw and fell in love with on your channel. Inspiration is definitely the point.
Sending prayers for you and baby girl! Best wishes for a good delivery. Such a special time. Aaron - have you seen the tree with all the lights off hey 35 W south in Minnesota? You should be able to search for it. One of your trees reminded me of it!!! Good luck garden family! I can’t wait to meet baby girl! There is something so beautiful about new life this year. Just think of the joy her arrival will bring the garden community! By the way. We planted 650 bulbs in our front yard. Hoping that the pandemic will be over and the display will bring joy to the neighbors! It was my birthday, Christmas and Mother’s Day present for the year!!!!
I wouldn't worry about people asking and talking about your cats. They are famous cats and I see how you love on them. And they're Always included in most videos. Love you two. Many blessings to you.
Gardener Scott!! He always has such good information and is so thorough with everything he talks about...definitely more vegetables and naturalized landscaping in his videos!
I have mentioned before and I will mention again that you handle your judgemental questions so well! Kudos to you and Aaron! Amazing answers to all questions and the fact that you do not get upset is perfect! Inspiration and motivation was the best comment ever. So very true and you have inspired me more than you will ever know!
This was fun listening to you and Aaron, About the driveway issue - definitely gravel! The sound, the look, the relaxing country feel are all perfect for your setting. Blacktop makes me feel like I need to hurry. Gravel helps to slow things down. There’s my two cents for what it’s worth. Have a wonderful Christmas and thank you so much for helping us all get through a trying year!💕
Use your channel to do amazing things for people!! Stay humble and kind!! We enjoy having Aaron in the videos. Your input is valuable too, Aaron! Stay amazing!
Ps. I already left a comment but I enjoy Aaron speaking with you in the videos. Also you both seem so humble and just like good people. One of the reasons I love watching you!
Christmas with Benjamin is going to be incredible. The innocence, awe and excitement of children never fails to tug at my heartstrings. They grow up so quickly. I was thinking of you today in relation to time off: most people have annual leave and maternity leave, I think you deserve both! I use my laptop to watch you and lots of recommendations come up daily. One can do a GA search for so many topics, great fun; also try 'filter' by oldest first to find your earlier videos. I know most people already are aware of this but I picked up the 'search' tip from a subscriber who often answered queries and was very helpful. Wishing you a happy, healthy and fun Christmas!
If you tube is monitoring this I vote your channel the the most valued in 2020! Gardening has got me through so many periods in my life. Happy times and some more trying. Its true retail therapy can cheer you up but it can become wasteful and just stuff. Gardening allows you to produce, feel productive and always feels hopeful. Even if something doesn't work out you feel inspired to keep trying, figure out the best solutions to the environment you're in. Ummm...sounds like 2020!🤣 Thank you guys for sharing your journey. So many life lessons can be learned from a garden and its not about the size! Window sink gardens work! I know especially with another baby coming you may not want to think of another project BUT seriously consider keeping a journal now weaving your lives and garden lessons. Todays journals will be a great storybook for later. Do not blink, these days will be your long ago that quick!💕
I luv when you guys collaborate and discuss ur possible plans and opinions together on ur videos, its like an insight into how you guys make decisions and have discussions about your plans. Its really fun to watch and so informative as well. Merry Christmas to you and your family 🎅 🎄
What a delightful highlight video it was nice and casual and friendly. Love the give and take with you and Aaron. Shows how all couples remember things slightly differently and you are always surprised when your partner had a different view of the same thing. Speaking for myself I take the videos as they come I don't expect one every day or every other day I'm just glad when there's one that is current. It's baby girl coming yes we're all anxious to know what's going on but it's more important for you guys to be involved with your family. We all admire you so much but we love being included as part of your family. Christmas blessings to all. Pixie
This was a really fun conversation video this time. You allowed us to hear your thought patterns and a little of your discussions on what you’d like to do. I felt like I was in on your staff meeting for the planning process. Nice to hear Aaron’s thoughts much more this time. Thank you😁
🎄You two are so great together! I enjoy your “discussions” so much. Take all the time you need during this blessed time before Baby L. Can’t wait to meet her. I know Santa will be extra generous with Benjamin! Merry Christmas to you and your entire family 🤶🏻🎁🎄🙏❤️
You have certainly arrived! I watch ALL your videos and I find them very inspiring! Working with you and Aaron was so much fun! On occasion I’ll watch the video on creating a centerpiece with cut flowers and succulents! I’m so happy for your success and I’m thrilled to watch your growing family! Love you both! ❤️
I do not have a garden. I live in an apartment with a few plants in Lisbon, Portugal but, you're a big inspiration every day. Thank you Laura and Aaron and Benjamin and the new baby girl. Merry Christmas!
I can't plant 100 tulips, but it doesn't bother me. I planted 30, and I can't wait until spring to see them! These videos are definitely inspiring to me, I get ideas and use them in my own way, that's the point of these wonderful videos.
I love you guys and your channel--in fact, after so many years, it's the only one I still watch faithfully. I wish you all a peaceful Christmas with your family.
I love having Aaron mic'ed up :) It's natural that she interacts with him during filming, and it's nice to be able to hear him well.
I just want to let you know that I LOVE that you plant a zillion bulbs and that you have and abundance of beautiful pots! I love seeing all the garden equipment that you have and how you use it and the smiles that it brings to Benjamin when he wants to help out or go for a ride. I love that you feed your chickens with all kinds of vegetables and you use vegetables for other things to make the world beautiful. I love your family and the example you show of what a family that works together looks like and what they can achieve. I love that people can see the results after many years of all the work, teaching, patients and prays that both your parents so obviously poured into you, Laura and Aaron, and that you in return are passing that onto Benjamin and your soon to be new baby girl. Thank you for living life so openly and allowing others to see your talents, whether it is planting a plant, making a wreath, flying a drone, or making a video and matching it to the perfect music.
P.S. I also love animals! Thank you for giving Russell and Cheddar a dream life. Love, food, shelter, and freedom, the world would be a different place if every animal and human had those thing.
Merry Christmas to you all and I pray blessings over all your families and also that 2021 will be a year that you double in wisdom, double in subscribers, double in talent and double in income!! 😀
Well said! Merry Christmas!
From one Brenda to another... Perfectly said!!
Well said Brenda! Merry Christmas
Brenda you said everything that I have thought in such a nice way. I agree with all you said and I hop Laura sees this post.
Laura. you have such a beautiful disposition. THANK YOU !
She does! Unlike me- no filter!
Thank you for making 2020 suck less. Merry Christmas!
Susan....you just cracked me up with your comment! 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Exactly lol
Well said!
"Suck less"
Hysterical!
Another great vlog that got me through 2020 was Chateau Diaries, with Stephanie Jarvis. What a delightful find that was.

Agreed. You said it so well.
I agree that would be a wonderful idea.
I left FB 4+ yrs ago and so glad I did!
I never had it!
Same here
I tried it once and never like it
I left 18 months ago and haven’t missed it! The Russian hackers have a heyday there harvesting everyone’s data
Yup, me too. Get rid of fb 4 yrs ago....don't miss it at all.
People, please stop judging others on how they manage their pets. These cats are CLEARLY happy in their lives, and could not have a more responsible owner. If they wanted to be inside they would be howling at the door. Please just PLEASE keep your judgmental comments to yourself.
Agreed. Don't like whatever- don't watch. Simple fix.
I totally agree. Russell & Cheddar have the best life. I love seeing them in the videos and I am not a cat person. Some have the tendency to go places that is not necessary.
Well said ty👍🏻
yess!
Agree on all of the judgmental comments out there--seriously find something productive to do with your own time.
Thank you Aaron and Laura. You’re so positive in how you deal with the silly comments and questions you receive. Above all else you are a great source of inspiration and kindness. Merry Christmas!
Not very nice to call people silly for their comments 🙄 I think these adults can handle the fact that not everyone is "perfect." Sheesh
@@respectpleasethankyou some of the questions are meant to be insults... they're back handed questions. So calling them silly is... very polite.
I think some questions are silly, but some come from people who are concerned,... like with the cats.......Laura answered it perfectly and now the person who asked the question knows that Russel and Cheddar are much loved.
Thank you for not editing out the moments with Russell 🥰
Love how Aaron participated even more this time. You both do so well together. I think it is a great idea for him to do a vlog while on maternity leave 😁
Around 7:49, Laura gave an unintentional funny.
"What if we were kept inside?"
WE WERE! This year. Haha! Good one.
True! but she didn’t let the pandemic slow her down too much.
Gardening helped me forget and find joy!
I rescued a cat that had been dumped on the street in the cold. She had tons of health issues. I'm allergic, so I gave her to my mom after getting her healthy. She walked into my mom's house, curled up on my mom's lap, and never showed any interest in going outside again. Cats are very clear about what they want.
I was taking care of A older lady, she also have a cat ,after a while of me taking care of the Cat, her daughter said I was the only one the Cat cares about lol ,she use to wait at the door inside the house for me ❤
I had one show up half starved. Got her well and she never asked to go out for the next 14 years.
We have 4 all feral rescues and one is handicapped and they could care less about going outside it’s also not safe for them to either where we live. They all are happy campers who sound like a heard of elephants when they play
Yes they live longer indoors. All Vets have told me that. I’ve lost several over the yrs to cars, dogs, poison. I learned my lesson & the boys stay in. Plus I don’t worry about ticks & fleas.
Our cat gets crazy if he is stuck inside! He's a big boy and loves to have time to himself in the yards!
The giving of a gift is a way to show you are thinking of someone. It is a tangible piece of a moment of thought. Though the item may not stay with you, the memory always will. The truth of a gift is that someone was thinking of you!
Beautifully put!💕
Love that Aaron is joining in on conversations.
We understand about your posting a video and not being consistent. I wish you and your family a Merry Christmas and a happy baby girl.
Watching you talk to your cats when they pop in, it’s like your talking to little kids making mischief ❤️
Flower Hill Farm and You Can't Eat the Grass are my favorite smaller garden channels. So kind of you to ask! It's gratifying to see such a supportive and positive community.
How is it that, “Russell, are you full of beans?” Is my biggest take a way from this video. Love your content and those cats are the greatest!

Yeah, Jim Putnam at Hortube is great! And glad to see Jenny from Creekside in there too. North Carolina folks like me!
Aaron your creativity in outlining that tree from trunk out the limbs was stunning! That’s creativity! 😁
Give yourself all the time you need for your baby girl. We all understand. Those first few weeks are so precious. Praying for a safe and healthy delivery!
Your cats have the best life! I love watching them wandering through the plants and enjoying the falling snow. Or squeezing next to you for some camera time. They live happy lives😊
Boy do I agree. My cats love being outside.
ya gotta love how Russell ALWAYS finds his way on set!
That is so true. I love seeing him and I’m not even a cat person.
My favorite part is that when you get those negative passive aggressive comments, you address them with laughter! It's so uplifting.

Loved the banter between you and Aaron. Such a fun video!
Really enjoyed your banter today!😆 God bless you all!🎄🇨🇦❤️
I wouldn't even address what you do with the gifts you've received from Fans. Once a gift is given, it's yours to do with as you see fit.
Your answer about "wasting" food was great. I like your perspective!
You should be a UN ambassador. You are full of grace.
Laura playing the piano to a video is 100% worth the effort .. what a way to romance our ordinary video !!

I can see your genuinely beautiful heart when you speak.❤️ Your diligence, hard work, and positive attitude is refreshing and much appreciated! MERRY CHRISTMAS and aloha from Hawaii!🌴

My daughter's cat gets left out in the cold if she doesn't come back after being called. Then she'll come in eat and then want to go back out. Anyone one can tell they are being well taken care of.
Always love the recap video. Wonderful. Thank you so very much for sharing.🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
I would love to see @missorchidgirl or @lauralovesucculents would be amazing! I think of you guys as family so thank you! for highlighting other amazing people
O M G… the lights are absolutely amazing! Totally creative and beautifully done.
I cannot imagine how long that would have taken. Be proud of what you have done, both of you!
Jim Putnam is fantastic!!! Erin is good for truly “ impatience”. You guys are fab but you do SO big it can be had to relate but oh so beautiful to watch.
Aaron, the entire light display is AMAZING. The WOW factor comes in with the collection of all of the lights together. You did an unbelievable job. It was so thoroughly enjoyable watching it. I watched it several times. 🎄☺️
She never waste food she is the most generous kind hearted person ever ..
Laura, I have learned so much about how to create layers in the garden and make my garden look more varied and enjoyable. I have no where near the land you have but you really inspire me!
Thank you for all you do. COVID-19 era depression was eliminated for me by watching your channel most mornings. Blessing for next years new Petunias and new baby girl.
Yes, greatful for the welcoming, educational and entertaining content! A cup of joe & Garden Answer.
My cats LOVE outside and are happiest to come in and out as they please. They have fur and they are plenty warm.
I have to share that I was at my local Gardener supply today picking up a couple things and my son noticed they had one of your video's playing and had to point it out to me since I watch all your videos and sometimes he will watch them with me. you are such an inspiration.
Ok Laura, I have been watching your channel for a good while now. I have a small acreage and even less money but have been gardening my whole life. But your information and knowledge have inspired and allowed me to start my own seedlings and build myself a tiny cold frame. This allowed me to have a lot more flowers and garden vegetables this year than I have ever been able to in the past! I even shared with neighbors. I loved it. I was so proud and enjoyed it so much. So keep inspiring. Keep planting those 100 petunias! Thank you!
I love that you are sharing your success with other TH-camrs and introducing them to your followers. Someday... someday... :)
I love watching both of you interact. You are both so respectful when you talk, even when you disagree. It reminds me of my own happy marriage. Thank you for showing people that marriages don't have to be what "Hollywood" puts into movies and shows. Have a happy New Year!
Hello Laura and Aaron. I just wanted to say thank you so much for this channel. I found it earlier, last January and have been a fan ever since. You have inspired me to give flower growing a try. But because my ground is so rocky and poor, I am using large containers. I've been picking them up at the end of the growing seasons at places like Rural King and Menards, even Walmart. I'm trying to get very large pots that I can lift into my SUV to take home. I planted up several of them with bulk Tulip bulbs like 60 + in a planter and can't wait for spring when I can put them out and watch them grow and display for all the neighbors to see. You have introduced me to Espomia products and Now have bags or all the TONES and 20 bags of Land and see Compost! I got seeds from Johnny's and Eden Brothers. I can't wait to start start showing off my flower in my front lawn, which is a knoll so they will be off the road and closer to the cabin. I might however, place a large pot or two down near the mailbox and plant them with something fun like Zinnias or maybe even Lavender. I work about 60 hours a week so containers is the way for me to go right now until I decide to move to a flatter piece of land and can put in a real garden. But because of you, I have been so excited. I am wishing you the very best for the coming year with you ever growing family.
And you have TONS of videos for me to watch from the past! I saw a great succulent planting you did in 2014! And Like how tos for drip system, favorite plants, etc, etc etc
🐈🐈 they're built for the outside
I sort of agree. I think cats are a lot like us. They're all different. One of mine is a trooper. The other one has a dedicated space heater ( I brought her home as a sick half frozen kitten).
If a cat doesn't want to go outside, they definitely won't!🐱
Their fur was nice and thick, they have their winter coats on. and it wasn't that cold, just snowing. They are fine.
Really looking forward to your progress on the property next year. It’s going to be a huge season for you all!
Laura, I love how pragmatic you are. I’ve started reminding myself to “raise the ordinary to extraordinary.” Thanks to you and your Mom for that one. Merry Christmas! PS The gravel versus pavement negotiations make me laugh every time. Just so relatable. ❤️
I side with Laura. I think gardens are fluid. Pavement is too permanent, although yes, you can tear it up. I think gravel lends a softer look? 😊
This year is finally almost over. We just wanted to thank you for all the inspiration. We tackled our drip systems for the flower beds and they are so much better now. They waste much less water than the ones we were using. We also installed new landscape lighting and we planted lots of different types of shrubs and other plants. We were both so excited about it all. You were our inspiration. We hope you have a Merry Christmas and enjoy this time counting down to welcoming your baby.
Totally Love your big projects and 100’s of flowers !!!! I get the point ! INSPIRATION !! FUN TO WATCH, especially “someone” doing all the hard work and taking it all on ☺️☺️☺️
Wishing you and yours a blessed Christmas. You all are so special to me and all of your other followers. Please do not worry about what kind of schedule you will be keeping the rest of this year and through when baby girl is born. We will miss you terribly, but I am sure everyone understands and wants what is best for you and your family. It will be even more special when you are able to release a video. Take care and thank you for all that you, Aaron, Benjamin, Russell and Cheddar do.
I'm with you Laura. I rather go without until I find exactly what I want instead of spending money on something I really didn't want.
I love watching your big projects and I take inspiration from them even though my space is very limited. I’ve grown so many plants that I first saw and fell in love with on your channel. Inspiration is definitely the point.
Sending prayers for you and baby girl! Best wishes for a good delivery. Such a special time. Aaron - have you seen the tree with all the lights off hey 35 W south in Minnesota? You should be able to search for it. One of your trees reminded me of it!!! Good luck garden family! I can’t wait to meet baby girl! There is something so beautiful about new life this year. Just think of the joy her arrival will bring the garden community! By the way. We planted 650 bulbs in our front yard. Hoping that the pandemic will be over and the display will bring joy to the neighbors! It was my birthday, Christmas and Mother’s Day present for the year!!!!
I wouldn't worry about people asking and talking about your cats. They are famous cats and I see how you love on them. And they're Always included in most videos. Love you two. Many blessings to you.
fun video!! so happy that Aaron is wearing the mike and participating! Happy Holidays!! :)
Laura, you are awesome! All of your ideas, energy and love of gardening is a tremendous gift to all of us. Thank you ❤️🎄🎁❤️
Gardener Scott!! He always has such good information and is so thorough with everything he talks about...definitely more vegetables and naturalized landscaping in his videos!
I still chuckle to myself when I think about you saying you thought you could just put Benjamin in a backpack thing and carry on as usual.🤣
Aaron, the lights are amazing.
I have mentioned before and I will mention again that you handle your judgemental questions so well! Kudos to you and Aaron! Amazing answers to all questions and the fact that you do not get upset is perfect! Inspiration and motivation was the best comment ever. So very true and you have inspired me more than you will ever know!
Aaron. You do so well on camera. Laura and yourself make a great team. 👍
This was fun listening to you and Aaron, About the driveway issue - definitely gravel! The sound, the look, the relaxing country feel are all perfect for your setting. Blacktop makes me feel like I need to hurry. Gravel helps to slow things down. There’s my two cents for what it’s worth. Have a wonderful Christmas and thank you so much for helping us all get through a trying year!💕
Use your channel to do amazing things for people!! Stay humble and kind!! We enjoy having Aaron in the videos. Your input is valuable too, Aaron! Stay amazing!
Ps. I already left a comment but I enjoy Aaron speaking with you in the videos. Also you both seem so humble and just like good people. One of the reasons I love watching you!
Aaron the lights are BEAUTIFUL AND AMAZING!!!.
Christmas with Benjamin is going to be incredible. The innocence, awe and excitement of children never fails to tug at my heartstrings. They grow up so quickly. I was thinking of you today in relation to time off: most people have annual leave and maternity leave, I think you deserve both! I use my laptop to watch you and lots of recommendations come up daily. One can do a GA search for so many topics, great fun; also try 'filter' by oldest first to find your earlier videos. I know most people already are aware of this but I picked up the 'search' tip from a subscriber who often answered queries and was very helpful.
Wishing you a happy, healthy and fun Christmas!
love love love to see you and Jack Barnwell do projects together!
Yep, all the lights are gorgeous but my favourite are the purple lights. Yellow sounds good too x
I was so glad to see that you connect with Jim Putnam because he is such a great guy and so knowledgeable!
If you tube is monitoring this I vote your channel the the most valued in 2020! Gardening has got me through so many periods in my life. Happy times and some more trying. Its true retail therapy can cheer you up but it can become wasteful and just stuff. Gardening allows you to produce, feel productive and always feels hopeful. Even if something doesn't work out you feel inspired to keep trying, figure out the best solutions to the environment you're in. Ummm...sounds like 2020!🤣 Thank you guys for sharing your journey. So many life lessons can be learned from a garden and its not about the size! Window sink gardens work! I know especially with another baby coming you may not want to think of another project BUT seriously consider keeping a journal now weaving your lives and garden lessons. Todays journals will be a great storybook for later. Do not blink, these days will be your long ago that quick!💕
I luv when you guys collaborate and discuss ur possible plans and opinions together on ur videos, its like an insight into how you guys make decisions and have discussions about your plans. Its really fun to watch and so informative as well.
Merry Christmas to you and your family 🎅 🎄
What a delightful highlight video it was nice and casual and friendly. Love the give and take with you and Aaron. Shows how all couples remember things slightly differently and you are always surprised when your partner had a different view of the same thing. Speaking for myself I take the videos as they come I don't expect one every day or every other day I'm just glad when there's one that is current. It's baby girl coming yes we're all anxious to know what's going on but it's more important for you guys to be involved with your family. We all admire you so much but we love being included as part of your family. Christmas blessings to all. Pixie
Wishing you and your family a very Merry Christmas 🎄
Have a wonderful Christmas ☃️🎄🌲⛄❤️🤶 happy New year.
Love the recaps, love to watch you and Arron having a real live conversation with each other..😊🤶😘
This was a really fun conversation video this time. You allowed us to hear your thought patterns and a little of your discussions on what you’d like to do. I felt like I was in on your staff meeting for the planning process. Nice to hear Aaron’s thoughts much more this time. Thank you😁
🎄You two are so great together! I enjoy your “discussions” so much. Take all the time you need during this blessed time before Baby L. Can’t wait to meet her. I know Santa will be extra generous with Benjamin! Merry Christmas to you and your entire family 🤶🏻🎁🎄🙏❤️
You have certainly arrived! I watch ALL your videos and I find them very inspiring! Working with you and Aaron was so much fun! On occasion I’ll watch the video on creating a centerpiece with cut flowers and succulents! I’m so happy for your success and I’m thrilled to watch your growing family! Love you both! ❤️
We'll be here always!!!!!
I love the purple tree, so impressive. Love all the lite trees. Your property looks so inviting with the lights.
Love Jim Putnam's Horttube--he gardens in zone 7 like I do and his advice is spot on for the mid-Atlantic! P.Allen Smith's videos are good, too!
I do not have a garden. I live in an apartment with a few plants in Lisbon, Portugal but, you're a big inspiration every day. Thank you Laura and Aaron and Benjamin and the new baby girl.
Merry Christmas!
I love the saying you used with Russell! Full of beans ! 🤣 I love listening to A Way With Words and hearing the background of sayings like this!
I can't plant 100 tulips, but it doesn't bother me. I planted 30, and I can't wait until spring to see them! These videos are definitely inspiring to me, I get ideas and use them in my own way, that's the point of these wonderful videos.
Have a wonderful holiday. You deserve some family time right now.
YES! Your playing the piano to a peaceful video would definitely be worth the effort 😀
I love you guys and your channel--in fact, after so many years, it's the only one I still watch faithfully. I wish you all a peaceful Christmas with your family.
Thanks for all the happiness and happy holidays!
My cats love being outside. I used to live in the city and now live in the country. The animals are so happy to have space to roam.
