    Laura, please don't stop making videos about your days, family and with your Mum, they are so lovely and I love that you share a little of your life. You always title your videos so that it is clear what the content is, surely if people aren't interested, they can choose not to watch! Looking forward to many more in 2023! Happy New year xxx

    It's so nice to see Aaron without his hat! I also love it when Laura and Aaron when they get called out on something stupid, they put it right back into that person's court and will not cave into a snarky remark. They continue to do what they want to do - because they should, because it's their house and their property. 😋👍

    Please continue “doing you”!! One major reason your content works so well is because a lot of what you do isn’t forced and appears to be what you want. The moment you begin bending to the whims of others, it can become a slippery slope. You just might lose the spark and personal motivations that make your content so enjoyable!

    You did an amazing job going ZEN to the question why you take Christmas decorations immediately after Christmas Day. My reaction to the question was, “Seriously! Are you kidding me?” Why would anyone ever question what another person chooses to do? You and Aaron responded well and kindly to a sanctimonious question.

      I totally agree. I personally don't exclusively celebrate Christ's birth. I focus more on the life he lived on earth, and the eternal purpose of that. My thoughts are on that at some time every day of the year. My focus doesn't require the commercialized aspect. I love to see those; however, it is not what I judge anyone for.

    • @alcg3981
      @alcg3981 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I think some people have to have a reason to 'flaunt' whatever they believe and the extent of their so-called knowledge. I am not a religious person, and agree with Aaron's take on the birthday. But that's a whole other conversation. I just love the decorations and usually leave mine up until the middle of January. I understand GA's reasons for un-decorating early, what with the filming, etc. It's all time sensitive... And THEN another one may complain about leaving the decorations up TOO long😵‍💫😉😹😹. Can't run everyone's lives....

    Sounds like you and Aaron came to a decision about the piano room. ❤️ Take your own advice with your garden. If you don't like a plant, don't feel bad pulling it out and changing it. Do what makes you happy. Do the same in your home. And we appreciate all of your content. ❤️I appreciate you guys putting yourselves out there for all of the comments you receive. You are educators, and it is so appreciated.❤️ I also need to say that I don't do New Year's resolutions. I set goals daily for myself to be productive, but not yearly. I've taken on your attitude, Laura, just do what feels natural. It has taken the pressure off so much.

    Laura I think you have a great balance of gardening, teaching us sooooo much… and family life as far as videos go…… it’s wonderful seeing all the sides of your world, obviously many others feel this way otherwise you wouldn’t be so extremely popular…… please keep being you and doing what your doing … y’all are so precious, thank you for enriching our days by sharing your knowledge and helping us be better in the garden

    First of all, why do people feel like they can comment on your hair? I just don't get it. Second of all the vast majority of us love to see you shop with your mom even if that includes a pedicure. Go for it! Third, I love everything about your channel. So keep up the good work!

    Good morning HAPPY NEW YEAR Garden Answer fam - Laura you probably think your videos are redundant. You do certain things certain times over and over again. But you guys are gathering more and more followers who want to become great gardeners or want to improve their gardening. I’m pretty sure every hour there’s somebody new that’s watching! Now there are a lot of videos that you guy put out that I cannot apply to my garden situation at the moment. I watch and put the information in the back of my mind…like the seed starting, seed organizing all that stuff. Well I’m actually going to start using them this month. That is one of my resolutions: to grow other flowers than sunflowers from seed. I’ve already started I’ve collected amaryllis (Hippeasrtum) seeds. So please please please keep filming & keep talking about your process for growing in managing your garden spaces. And thank you and everyone!!!

    I just LOVED Aaron's comment after you described rolling the ribbon from your trees and saving it..."Do you remember ribbon candy? Boy, I haven't had that in years". I just loved how ribbon made him think of ribbon candy! Made me chuckle.

    I have three kids 34, 21, my baby is 18, and I will be 60 this year. I treasure all my before and after photos because they are the most photos I have of my kids. Your passion shows when you tell stories about growing up around doing things in your parent's family home, and garden center. Go back and watch your face telling the stories. We as the viewer find this heart felt. I love how your kids and animals are a part of your life weather you planned or didn't plan for them to show up. I have never had mother time with my Mother she was always a nurses maid to my I'll father who couldn't be left alone for an hour. It's also wonderful to see this side of your husband and yourself discussing the videos and what you would like to try to do this year. I am a viewer because you guys are living your dayley life and it's not a scripted movie. That's what I love about watching. It also motivates me to get and do things while watching as well. It give me ideas for my home. Your doing it right. Don't second guess your family life the kids are a part of what you guys do. And who you have grown to be. You only get 18 years with them at home as your children. I morn each day that my small children are gone. I love who they have turned out to be! But miss my little ones.

    My mother put our tree up the Friday after Thanksgiving, then it came down the 2nd or 3rd day after christmas.i had a friend who loved her all white tree & it was up pretty much all year.she just loved it. She has passed on, so my laughing at seeing her tree up in June is a fond memory. Whatever makes a person happy.

    I would LOVE to see a bloopers video!! I know "stuff" happens all the time, it would be cool to see the outakes. Yes Aaron's too! Brings light to situations where you may insert an "oops" . I so enjoy all of your video's no matter the content. You always make us feel like friends. Sooo how about it??

    • @tamararobinson2069

      Lol - Good idea! It is fun & helps reset us everyday people to not try to be as “Perfect” as those we admire - remind us stuff happens nobody is perfect. I think one of the reasons Becky of AcreHomestead is so loved is she doesn’t do mess up take outs - makes her so relatable. I love The Garden Answer family & how they do content is Super Fabulous - but a blooper video would be Awesome!💚😅😂

      @jgwood10 relax, they don't have to interrupt their family time, it was just a suggestion for content ideas. They could take walks around the property showing what it looks like during the off season.

    People need to take a chill pill about Christmas decorations…. To each their own. If someone wants to keep their decorations up until mid-Jan good for them; if you want to take them down on 12/26 rock on. Thank you for being honest and true to yourself and your family. We are grateful for you all and just appreciate you take us along for the ride. Happy New Year!

    I love the variety you offer in your videos. The ones with your mom and sister are some of my favorites not because of what you’re doing but because your interactions with each other are so fun. Seeing you lovingly tease and joke with each other is great! I enjoy seeing you and Aaron discuss what you each like and how you come to final plans for everything from the land and gardens to the house. I originally thought you shouldn’t paint the woodwork in the piano room but after seeing it in this video it’s clear that the finish on it probably isn’t original to the house. I love both rich wood moldings where you can see the grain of the wood, like oak, as well as painted. I think it might be nice to see what kind of wood all that molding is made out of. If there is beautiful oak or mahogany under that finish it might look beautiful stripped. Lots of antique furniture used to be stained very dark, almost black, but when stripped you find gorgeous wood grains and colors of the natural wood. If it’s just a bunch of random stuff put together then painting is the way to go. I think painting that room a lighter color would be beautiful and would set off the piano. If you kept dark wood a pale sky blue would look gorgeous. “Light” doesn’t have to be white. 😊

    A lift up into the loft would be a great addition to the barn. It would make moving storage items faster, easier, and safer than hauling them up and down the steps.

    I don't care what other people say. I enjoyed your day with your mother. Please keep doing it. It is good to change it up. I also agree with both of you on taking down your Christmas decorations. Everyone should do what they want and don't judge someone else. I like to take mine down by the end of the month.

    Your piano room had a glow after the wall paper was removed that I was drawn to. The beautiful woodwork needs to stay the same-try a softer, lighter shade of cream or taupe on the walls.
    Oh, and Aaron, your hair looks great-darker from not getting sunlight to it!!! I enjoy your family. Happy New Year.
