    Bri, I know you and Aurthor had your comments turned off, I just want you to know that it’s none of our business and you or he owe no explanation, We all come short of the glory of God, and I’d love nothing better than to see you all back happy and together again! I’ve been praying for you all! ❤

      Hi Bri. Just had to tell both you and Arthur how happy I am for you. I have been watching you since the beginning when you were on the farm. The challenges you both have had are enough to break even the strongest person. I encourage everyone to watch your story from the beginning before they make any judgements. Arthur is a wonderful husband and father. We may wonder why God allows things to happen in our lives that we don't understand. But He has a purpose, so we have to continue to trust Him in ALL things and He will work them out for our good. Romans 8:28. God bless you both. I will continue to pray for your family

      @@darleneheron126 When in doubt Romans 8:28 always comes to mind! We don't have to understand as long as we keep our personal Faith, we will stand through it all. As I read through what you wrote I was going to use that exact verse❤ I also agree that from the first video of Justin bringing the chickens and we got our first intro to Art and Bri, I have watched every episode and he was a loving father and husband and I knew he was struggling but it blew me away that he started drinking and left. Totally against character. But praying now for a happy ending!

    I totally understand why comments were turned off on your last 2 vlogs - but I've been aching to say how much my heart was warmed by them. I genuinely believe That with God ALL things are possible and that when you honour Him, He honours us. Who knows why, or what we have to learn from these incredibly hard life experiences, but I am so happy for you and your family as you try to build the bridges back. Lin, UK xx

    I have seven kids as well, though mine are now older than yours. I always have had the desire to do stuff like this with my kids, but the work it takes to get there, and then the anxiety of being afraid of all the things that could go wrong with nature, and strangers in the trails, I didn't do it nearly enough... It's easy to watch a video like this from a seated, comfortable perspective, and just think, awe, that's lovely. It really is impressive though.
    My kids always talk about those days when I overcame obstacles, and took them on adventures, which surprises me, because it felt like such a chore.
    "It's stressful, do it anyway"... That is a quote to live by!

My babies are adults now…my youngest a brand new ‘adult’ at age 18 just starting college and my oldest at 25 and a Chef in Missouri. I grew up much like your kids, except I do not remember ever wearing shoes in the summer unless we went to the fair! My oldest daughter much the same, a true country girl that moved to Missouri to enjoy the great outdoors…Always hiking, boating, and or camping.

    When I watch those miracle babies climbing I am forever amazed at Gods goodness in bringing these little babies through their early days free from any sequelae. Amazing grace❤. I love that natural desire of littles to take their clothes off. An elderly woman who lived across the road and was only able to look out her window told me a story years later of a naked toddler she saw escaping from our house and running to his Dad and then being returned with his Daddy’s tshirt on. She said we always brightened her day.

    Thank you Bri. I will heading up to western NC in a couple of weeks. I need my nature time to renew. Care for my mother with dementia for 8 years, the lady 5 being the hardest.. now it is tune fir me. Refresh and renewal, sight seeing, memories, leaf watching snd a little exploration. Your adventures with the children strengthened my resolve.
    May God continue to bless you and your family. Keeping ALL of you in prayer.

    What a beautiful earth God has provided for us. Bri you are so gifted as a creative woman, a mother, and a wife. I hope you are able to continue to express this on your channel- from the gardening to preserving food to cooking and keeping up with the daily demands of living, your voice is very important and needed for a host of younger generation women who seem lost and confused and unable to find a path. Blessings to you and your family.

    I remember getting everything ready to go and then being tired before we started.

    I'm happy for this family.. never had kids myself so I was holding my breath watching the little ones climb. The baby sure looks like Art.. first time I saw that.. Also, I was glad for the past few videos! P.S. Looked like you drove the new van VERY WELL.. that would have scared me...lolrotf!

    Hey Bri, I'd love it if you would share what are all the contents of your emergency bag. I look forward to these type of adventures with my grandchildren, and it would be great to teach them what to take along.

      I will do that! I meant to do this in the video but it was a little too chaotic.

    Kudos for going on a hike alone with 7 children. I’m sure it would have been easier to stay home and less tiring but you packed up the gang and headed out to explore . Now May I suggest get some much needed rest !
