I think Arthur’s courage and vulnerability will really help others. I for one, need to see this struggle. It is helping me deal with my own struggles. Thank you, Arthur. Be kind to yourself as well
“Real people are struggling with real life” this is the truth. Makes the real people all the more courageous even if inside they feel fragile as thin pure beautiful glass
Watching both has helped me numerous times in dealing with my own struggles. Both Bri and Arthur have said or done something in the past that has given me the courage to help myself heal.
I remember when people were telling Arthur to get some help with the house. He refused. So getting some help with the mowing is great! It's not failing to need help.
Congratulations at being 10 months alcoholic free. I'm so proud of you. You are blessed and highly favored. I love how God is restoring you and your family. I am continuing to pray for each of you.
10 months of sobriety does not seem 100% truthful. What has Art been doing in these 10 months? When entering sobriety, you have to keep yourself occupied. He is not working a job, and the state of that camper and farm (never mind the gutted house) shows that he has been doing the bare minimum if that. It's all a bit of a graft with him and Bri. I feel sorry for the kids who got to experience a semi-normal life in a nice home and community - and now it looks like they'll be going back to that cramped dilapidated camper with a dad who is just as much of a lazy mooch and will be back to his old ways in no time. Bri should be mega thankful for living in such a beautiful house thanks to her brother, she should get a real job, and send those kids to school to equip them for a normal life. Many people can raise well-adjusted kids when home schooling on farms, but Art and Bri are not those people. Read Educated by Tara Westover for a glimpse into this skewed mentality and the damage it can do to their kids.
I'm SO PROUD of you Arthur, that you chose your family over the alcohol. Alcoholism killed my dad and really damaged us kids. We lived with it for a Long time, walking on "eggshells" around him. Our mom eventually told him he had to stop drinking or leave and he chose to leave. I can't tell you how sad and damaging it is, that as a young girl I was relieved he was leaving and that I knew he chose alcohol over us. I'm 58 and still deal with it from time to time.
One of my favorite things about the Scriptures is how many people have deep regrets and yet also much deeper joy in looking ahead. Your whole crowd is making wonderful progress!
I love seeing how the kids thrive at the farm and being with their dad. They want to learn from him and be hard workers like him. Bri you've been their security during your family trials and those babies all know that. I'm so proud of you Bri for having that unconditional love that we speak in our wedding vows. Arthur, everyone makes mistakes and messes up. A real man can admit his mistakes, and try to fix them. You are doing that. Your family, even your children will have a testimony to share. I'm so proud of each one of you all. God is truly amazing. Ty for sharing your lives.
Art, do not overdo and get over whelmed by planning to do too much. Baby steps to take time to slowly move forward will keep things ❤ and happy for your family. One day at a time with LOTS OF HELP to be asked for when needed.
Arthur been there done that!!! It Definitely Doesn't take the pain away!!!! I have been FREE fo 4 1/2 years now!!!! Life is had but Absolutely Amazing!!!! I don't regret it for a second!!! God Bless Us All!!!!
Arthur be proud of how far you have come! Stay strong, I believe in you. You are an amazing dad to your children. They are watching and believe in you. Seeing them on the farm, playing down the River, eating the peanut butter sandwiches you made, and learning all about how to be a man from you. Praying for you and your beautiful family. 🙏🏻💕
Thank you for being willing to share this- you will never know all the people who will benefit from your courage. We lost our home to fire two years ago and in the overwhelming aftermath my daily encouragement to myself has been: "What is the next right thing for me to do?" It helps to push all the other stuff away so I can focus on what needs to happen now. The occasional what I wanna do creeps in as a treat, but what moves me forward is the next right thing.
❤ That is going on a sheet of pretty paper, 🍥"What is The Next Right Thing to do?"🍥 Because it IS what I need to focus on. There is so much to do in any direction. I call it putting out fires, but I like this better.❤
So darn cute, especially with a new kitten. Arthur please keep going forward! Lost my youngest daughter at the age of 42 almost 2.5 years to alcoholism. She left behind a beautiful 5 year old daughter who is now my oldest daughter and is now thriving. She asks about her Mommy in heaven all the time and questions why she died. It’s 💔💔💔. We tried and tried and tried but to avail. Keep thriving for Bri and your children, hard journey I know but so worth it in the end. ❤❤❤
Arthur, your story is such an inspiration to so many. My husband is a recovering alcoholic. He drank several years trying to get rid of pain from his childhood. Finally, after almost losing me and his kids, he was saved by Jesus Christ and one day he was drunk, the next day he was sober. He has been sober for over 36 years and now. He was a Cobra pilot in Vietnam and ended up flying for an EMS helicopter company. He is an amazing Dad to his grown kids and an awesome grandpa. Our married life is amazing. That is his story and you have your story. He has helped so many others and I know you will to. Whether you know it or not, what you have been through is your testimony to others. You are so much stronger than you will ever know. My husband helped start a Celebrate Recovery group at our church. It isn't only for alcoholism and drugs but anger, and all other hangups people have. The group is amazing and they have all become so close. I know you will be helping others and seeing you with your family is just amazing. You are a wonderful inspiration to so so many. Keep up the great work and know that there are many of us behind you praying for you.
I'm so glad to see you guys in videos together. Please both of you remember to take it easy on yourself. Take your breaks when you need it.We will still be here.
Arthur you are strong and so very capable of staying that way! Your viewers continue to pray for your continued work to bring your family together again❤
That kitty is beautiful😍 she is going to be so fluffy ~ the home is looking beautiful🏡 the garden is looking beautiful🌱🌾🌷 the farm is looking beautiful🏞 you all are looking beautiful...❤ you can see the joy in all your hearts just over flowing into what you all love the most...and nature boy Wilder is getting so big now🦖🦎🦬
10 months and continuing sober, Arthur, and with God you can continue to walk this path! He is a constant source of peace while drink only numbs you temporarily as you know. Joyful is being a wonderful mother/pet owner to the new kitten with the skills she learned as a big sister!
Arthur, I totally envisioned you climbing up the tree & nailing it on there!😂 Also, so proud of you for your recovery! Joyful, may I recommend a cat collar I've used for 20 years called a 'Beastie Band?" It's made of neoprene (wetsuit material) and Velcro fastener, is stretchy & able to slip off if caught. They come in very cute designs & are less than $10. The trick is to put it on kinda tight at 1st so they can't pull it off with their mouth. Once they're used to it you can adjust it a bit looser & cut off the excess. I LOVE your new kitty, she is adorable😻Bri, thx for the explanation about Thrive Market, I've been wondering how it works. Love you all. Grandma Kim❤️
Art I know you don’t need external validation but that’s an amazing feat and I am so proud of the hard work you’ve put in for your life. Praise God for giving beauty for ashes
Thank you for all of both of your transparency and authenticity with proper boundaries for your family. I was one of the thousands in Bri’s position at the same time. Confused and exhausted with the Lords silver lining. 4 months reconciled and so much mess still to clean up but so much hope. Both of your testimonies are a beautiful encouragement for me to hear
Great things require daily diligence. It's the stringing together of successful days that make our lives shine, it's the stringing together of successful days that build new foundations on which you build, it's the stringing together of successful days that add up slowly to a successful life. I admire your courage and wish you and Bri all the blessings that God has in store for you.
Like everyone is saying..we all have our regrets,some are big and just small regrets,some consume us more than others. You're doing so WELL! We're cheering for you and your family.
❤❤❤❤ u all, watching, seeing, listening every little Good job Arthur God is so good. Good to hear u, doing ur best for the family ❤❤❤❤❤ God blesses u alll
I’m proud of your vulnerability & progress in recovery ❤️🩹 10 months is something to celebrate. Love to see your beautiful family healing. 🙏🏼prayers for you all 🙏🏼
I've been watching for a long time now and I'm so happy that both of you and your family are going to be going back to the farm. Mom, dad, and all the children seem so happy when you guys are there😊
Arthur, God bless you and your sobriety. What a huge success. My grandson is now 2 years sober and we are so proud of his efforts. Your kids and wife will bless you forever for your efforts to be clean. Keep up the good work.
Back when I was in first grade, my little brother and I were having a blast at our local creek until we stumbled upon a sad sight-a dead fish floating by. Startled, we ran to the shore, but in the chaos, I didn't notice the broken glass from a 40z beer bottle lurking beneath the water's surface. I stepped right on it. At first, I didn't even realize I was hurt until I saw the bl00d trailing behind me. Panicked, I checked my brother, thinking he was the one injured, but he was fine. Confused, I looked at my foot and that's when the pain hit me like a ton of bricks. My foot was cut deep in a circle shape, and I had to get a lot of stitches. This experience left me with a large scar on the bottom of my foot-a constant reminder of the importance of keeping our waterways clean.
Arthur congratulations on 10 months sober!!!! My husband will celebrate 13 years sobriety on November 10 of this year. He says it was his greatest accomplishment. That’s huge for you, and you deserve congratulations 🎉
Arthur, please don’t let the regrets bring you down. Look at all the good things you’re doing. That’s all that matters going forward. Just one good day after another one success after another. We all have messes that we have to clean up no matter what our circumstances are. Even if we haven’t gone through a hard time nobody’s life is perfect. We just have to pick up and say let’s start doing things better and just stick with it. I think you’re doing great and sometimes a little regret is good because it keeps us going forward but just take every little victory as what it is enjoy it and go forward. I appreciate like many people here your honesty in your struggle I am sure there are many people that you’re helping on your journey to get started on their journey to better. As always you and Bri and the kids are in my prayers every single day. I’m very happy for your family that you’re on a journey to get back to where you wanna be!
You are a true man that recognizes your weaknesses. Every man goes through a mental breakdown, especially you. I am not going to list everything that you have on your plate as a man. But the fact that you overcame it makes you solid. Remember that you need alone time as a man so that you don’t fall.
So proud of you, Arthur! My hubby has been sober for almost 28 years. Looking forward to you being able to say the same! You can be victorious with God! Thank you for being so vulnerable and open. God bless!
Arthur, God sends us reminders of what we have gone thru to be grateful of where we are today. Past bad choices dont define who we are they are just reminders what amazing things we have today so we can try to maintain and continue to prosper. So happy you and Bri are working together to build a better life. Be proud you have conquered and are succeeding over the past. Bri you have shown us all what a forgiving heart and working to repair a broken home. 🎉to many happy years ahead.
Greetings Been watching a long time. Don’t give up. Your remorse is from the devil. Your on the right road don’t give up. I love to watch you cleanup your place. Stay in the word.
I lived in a house like that, I can guarantee it was a big contributing factor, my thyroid wouldn't even normalize no matter how much medicine they threw at me the whole four years we lived in that house, I slept off and on all day and all night, and couldn't find the energy to do basically anything
Sorry but I just wish this channel was Bri from Scratch only. I enjoy watching all you do Bri and how beautifully you keep your garden and your home and watching the amazing meals you make for your children. I’m so proud of you Bri you are a very hard worker and provider for your children. God Bless.
I haven’t read any hateful comments unless they are deleted immediately. I read true concern for Bri and her children. I wish Art well and hope his life heals and his marriage to Bri flourishes. When he disses the city house and comments on the farm that he let go to some kind of ruin, I do worry for Bri. She’s smart to go slow. No hate here, I promise you that.
Such a beautiful family! Thank you for sharing these precious moments with us. Joyful- so happy you got your kitten. 😊 The river scene and garden moments were so beautiful. Great videography and editing as always. ❤️🙏🏼
Brother....it doesnt make the pain go away!...It temporarily hides it...Look at each one you find as a gentle reminder of what you've overcome I spent a year drinking 3 fifths of jim beam and a fifth of vodka a week...That was over 30 years ago! Keep moving forward!
Fantastic progress through love & family & friend connection! Thanks for sharing bits of your lives that help strengthen us & your family. Blessings to all 🤗🇨🇦
Takes bravery and character to admit your mistakes…one day at a time Arthur…we love and support you! Prayers and much love guys❤🙏🏻….edit:….whomever did the edit..with the music while the boys were at the river..was beautiful…great edit..gave me the “feels” from head to toe❤❤❤
Bri, you truly are blessed and a blessing to others. Your children are exceptionally adorable, all of them, I loved seeing how careful and sweet they were with the little kitten! Joyful, I am so happy for you! My first pet was a kitten, too (now I'm a dog mom :) . I wish you all nothing but the best in life
I really appreciate your Thrive explanation. Lots of people I watch are sponsored by them, but actually showing what you got helped me understand exactly what Thrive provides. Thanks!!
I am so proud of you both! Life is not as simple as many would have you believe. The two of you have taught me more than I can explain. I have made my own messes, mistakes, and problems. Im so happy to see you all on a healing journey. 💗 I freaking love you, guys.
I said out loud Truly looks like Grace and 2 seconds later Bri said it. She probably says it a lot but I just noticed. Beautiful family none the less. ❤❤❤
They didn't name it spirits for nothing,huh? I managed to stay clean until 40. Fibro, 2 types arthritis,broke back, and a hard life fineally was too much. I gave almost 10 yrs to that devil. Im still dealing with fallout! Im so glad you're free hun. Im happy it didn't tear your family apart for good. Be Encouraged, we all have a cross to bear!❤❤❤
You need a European Scythe, like Ben Hollar has been using! It's amazing for tall grasses!❤❤❤ Good luck. God bless you all and many prayers 🙏🏻 Nurse Judi in Scottsdale AZ and Eucharistic Minister 🙏🏻 ☦️
The kitty is beautiful. She’s a gorgeous calico. Get a pair of nail clippers, and start clipping her nails very easy to do and the faster you do it as a kitten the more she will be used to it.
❤ Hey, Bree. I'm just letting you know that I use tractor supply. Horse bidden, it looks like rabbit pellets, but it will last a long time. It lasts over a month and yes, it calls $7, but $7 is pretty good for almost 2 months of litter and it does work very good. I have been using it ever since I found out about it and the clay is so hard for you to pick up when it's wet and dirty but this. It turns into solda, so it's not as bad, but that's up to you all but I was just telling you
that can of liquir my friend is what sent my wife, mother and oldest child to live with Jesus in 2005, it was in the hands of a teenage driver who lost his life as well, miss them dearly
I think Arthur’s courage and vulnerability will really help others. I for one, need to see this struggle. It is helping me deal with my own struggles. Thank you, Arthur. Be kind to yourself as well
Same
Yes. Society had become dead. It’s all superficial soundbytes and shock value. Meanwhile, real people are struggling with real life 💓
Agree as well, can't thank you enough for being real ❤❤❤
“Real people are struggling with real life” this is the truth. Makes the real people all the more courageous even if inside they feel fragile as thin pure beautiful glass

I remember when people were telling Arthur to get some help with the house. He refused. So getting some help with the mowing is great! It's not failing to need help.
100% every step forward has a multiplying affect to opening up to the larger community of support/friendship and accomplishment.
Arthur, you are NOT alone. We all have our messes and our regrets. One day at a time.
I love that sign! 😂
Congratulations at being 10 months alcoholic free. I'm so proud of you. You are blessed and highly favored. I love how God is restoring you and your family. I am continuing to pray for each of you.

Proud of you, Arthur. 10 months is a great accomplishment. Keep up the good work.
Congratulations on your 10, almost 11 months of sobriety!!🎉 every day is an accomplishment. Well done!
Be proud of those 10 almost 11 months ❤ not everyone gets there.
Arthur, your story is such an inspiration to so many. My husband is a recovering alcoholic. He drank several years trying to get rid of pain from his childhood. Finally, after almost losing me and his kids, he was saved by Jesus Christ and one day he was drunk, the next day he was sober. He has been sober for over 36 years and now.

My husband helped start a Celebrate Recovery group at our church. It isn't only for alcoholism and drugs but anger, and all other hangups people have. The group is amazing and they have all become so close.
I know you will be helping others and seeing you with your family is just amazing. You are a wonderful inspiration to so so many. Keep up the great work and know that there are many of us behind you praying for you.
I clicked so fast when seen was a farm video just love that place. I been watching you 6 years now sometimes I go back and watch old farm videos.
Ditto! I've been watching from their 1st video! Such a sweet, sweet family❤️
I love the old garden videos. Everyone in the garden and all they grew.
I'm so glad to see you guys in videos together. Please both of you remember to take it easy on yourself. Take your breaks when you need it.We will still be here.

Praise God for giving beauty for ashes
Your vulnerability is beautiful Auther❤
Thank you for all of both of your transparency and authenticity with proper boundaries for your family. I was one of the thousands in Bri’s position at the same time. Confused and exhausted with the Lords silver lining. 4 months reconciled and so much mess still to clean up but so much hope. Both of your testimonies are a beautiful encouragement for me to hear
progress is awesome - God has perfect timing, His pace is always right 💖
Great things require daily diligence. It's the stringing together of successful days that make our lives shine, it's the stringing together of successful days that build new foundations on which you build, it's the stringing together of successful days that add up slowly to a successful life.

You got this Arthur! 22 years sober for me
So many of us rooting you on!
Arthur you are doing a great job getting the mobile home cleaned 😊
I’m so proud of you Arthur. Your doing so good.
You both are good people and good parents❤
At the end maybe this is what you all truly needed for yourselves and for each other🤗❤️
Joyful, you picked such a pretty kitten! You are going to have so much fun! 🤗👍👍🐈⬛🥰
I hope everyone is mindful of the newest member(kitten) so it doesnt accidently get out thru an open door. Shes a sweetie and everyone looks excited
Thanks for the honesty and help for those who need to hear this. In helping yourself you are helping others. 🎉
It is really good thing you have trained your children to check for ticks!
You are a true man that recognizes your weaknesses. Every man goes through a mental breakdown, especially you. I am not going to list everything that you have on your plate as a man. But the fact that you overcame it makes you solid. Remember that you need alone time as a man so that you don’t fall.
Well done on 10 months sober ….I’m now 4.6 years sober ….if you still have difficult days it does get easier ….keep it up !!M
Why in the world would you all move back in the camper? You have a stylish modern farmhouse that is so big and beautiful.
❤ 🐈 make sure to get lots of scratching posts! Cant wait to see the new kitten and dog playing in the house with everyone!
So proud of you, Arthur! My hubby has been sober for almost 28 years. Looking forward to you being able to say the same! You can be victorious with God! Thank you for being so vulnerable and open. God bless!
Arthur, God sends us reminders of what we have gone thru to be grateful of where we are today. Past bad choices dont define who we are they are just reminders what amazing things we have today so we can try to maintain and continue to prosper. So happy you and Bri are working together to build a better life. Be proud you have conquered and are succeeding over the past. Bri you have shown us all what a forgiving heart and working to repair a broken home. 🎉to many happy years ahead.
Greetings
Been watching a long time. Don’t give up. Your remorse is from the devil. Your on the right road don’t give up. I love to watch you cleanup your place.
Stay in the word.
Congratulations to Joyful on getting her kitten. Whimsy is a wonderful name too.
Congratulations Arthur. That's tough. So glad y'all have overcome this.
Blessings, julie
just so wonderful seeing you taking care of your beautiful land ..I so miss our farm property and the woods..take each day and enjoy
Art, Bri and family...thank you all for the beautiful video!!
Glad to see Arthur working with the children at the farm!
I think the mold affected you as well as the rest of the family
I lived in a house like that, I can guarantee it was a big contributing factor, my thyroid wouldn't even normalize no matter how much medicine they threw at me the whole four years we lived in that house, I slept off and on all day and all night, and couldn't find the energy to do basically anything
Definitely contributes to depression, brain fog and overall immune suppression. Been there done that. Had thyroid issues too
Sorry but I just wish this channel was Bri from Scratch only. I enjoy watching all you do Bri and how beautifully you keep your garden and your home and watching the amazing meals you make for your children. I’m so proud of you Bri you are a very hard worker and provider for your children. God Bless.
Good grief you have some really unpleasant people commenting on YOUR channel Bri..noone has time or energy for hatefull people! Love to you all.
I haven’t read any hateful comments unless they are deleted immediately. I read true concern for Bri and her children. I wish Art well and hope his life heals and his marriage to Bri flourishes. When he disses the city house and comments on the farm that he let go to some kind of ruin, I do worry for Bri. She’s smart to go slow. No hate here, I promise you that.
@@nancycowan6109Sadly, there have been a number of hateful comments, even though Bri had said she didn't want anyone hating on her husband.
@@aprudentprepper Art doesn’t need anything or anyone to impede his personal healing. I wish him only the best moving forward.
To me, you have always been awesome Arthur. And you continue to be. Thanks for sharing yourself with us.
Congratulations Arthur!
It is so beautiful to see little boys collecting flowers and appreciating them for the pretty part of nature that they are 🙏❤️
Delightful video. Celebrating with you Arthur ! God's mercies are new every morning! Great is His faithfulness!!
Such a beautiful family! Thank you for sharing these precious moments with us. Joyful- so happy you got your kitten. 😊
The river scene and garden moments were so beautiful. Great videography and editing as always. ❤️🙏🏼
Congratulations on the kitten!
A beautiful Tortious Shell coloring~
Brother....it doesnt make the pain go away!...It temporarily hides it...Look at each one you find as a gentle reminder of what you've overcome I spent a year drinking 3 fifths of jim beam and a fifth of vodka a week...That was over 30 years ago! Keep moving forward!
Fantastic progress through love & family & friend connection! Thanks for sharing bits of your lives that help strengthen us & your family. Blessings to all 🤗🇨🇦
Takes bravery and character to admit your mistakes…one day at a time Arthur…we love and support you! Prayers and much love guys❤🙏🏻….edit:….whomever did the edit..with the music while the boys were at the river..was beautiful…great edit..gave me the “feels” from head to toe❤❤❤
One day at a time and the serenity prayer get us through every day. God is good.
Good morning Art and Bri and crew ❤
Bri, you truly are blessed and a blessing to others. Your children are exceptionally adorable, all of them, I loved seeing how careful and sweet they were with the little kitten! Joyful, I am so happy for you! My first pet was a kitten, too (now I'm a dog mom :) . I wish you all nothing but the best in life
Thank you for choosing sobriety Arthur! As the child of a alcoholic I an so glad you chose life.
Amen❤❤❤
Good for you art. It’s not easy. But it’s worth it
I really appreciate your Thrive explanation. Lots of people I watch are sponsored by them, but actually showing what you got helped me understand exactly what Thrive provides. Thanks!!
I am so proud of you both! Life is not as simple as many would have you believe. The two of you have taught me more than I can explain. I have made my own messes, mistakes, and problems. Im so happy to see you all on a healing journey. 💗 I freaking love you, guys.
Also, I love the new kittens name. Just sayin'. ❤
Also, also...Bri, your voice calms me.
I said out loud Truly looks like Grace and 2 seconds later Bri said it. She probably says it a lot but I just noticed. Beautiful family none the less. ❤❤❤
I am fairly new to your channel. I respect you both very much for not giving up! More people need to not give up.
They didn't name it spirits for nothing,huh?
I managed to stay clean until 40. Fibro, 2 types arthritis,broke back, and a hard life fineally was too much. I gave almost 10 yrs to that devil. Im still dealing with fallout! Im so glad you're free hun. Im happy it didn't tear your family apart for good. Be Encouraged, we all have a cross to bear!❤❤❤
You need a European Scythe, like Ben Hollar has been using! It's amazing for tall grasses!❤❤❤ Good luck. God bless you all and many prayers 🙏🏻 Nurse Judi in Scottsdale AZ and Eucharistic Minister 🙏🏻 ☦️
Congratulations on your sobriety 😊❤
Congratulations on your 10 months! My husband just hit his 2 years! Super proud. It’s a hard thing to over come.
Love learning about the plants you show us!
The kitty is beautiful. She’s a gorgeous calico. Get a pair of nail clippers, and start clipping her nails very easy to do and the faster you do it as a kitten the more she will be used to it.
That's awesome for 10 months!! Proud of you!!
Congratulations, 10 months dry, I am proud of you, Art. Don't be a Trash hole! That's awesome 👌
I’m so glad that you found sobriety
What a great video and oh I'm so happy for joyful's beautiful little kitty whimsy
❤ Hey, Bree. I'm just letting you know that I use tractor supply. Horse bidden, it looks like rabbit pellets, but it will last a long time. It lasts over a month and yes, it calls $7, but $7 is pretty good for almost 2 months of litter and it does work very good. I have been using it ever since I found out about it and the clay is so hard for you to pick up when it's wet and dirty but this. It turns into solda, so it's not as bad, but that's up to you all but I was just telling you
that can of liquir my friend is what sent my wife, mother and oldest child to live with Jesus in 2005, it was in the hands of a teenage driver who lost his life as well, miss them dearly
🙏🙏🙏
