You are so right no matter how old our kids are you never stop worrying about them and thats also combined with wanting them to live their best life. My turn is coming up in October when my daughter moves from NZ to the UK ❤❤❤
Hey Sonyah, thanks for your comment and kind words 🙏
We hope you enjoy every moment possible with your daughter before she moves on in October. We'll start generating some high, happy energy in the UK so it's extra nice for her when she arrives 😊

FreeGang, can't leave you out because the person reading this obviously has great tastes because you are here reading this! Blessings to you all from me and please say something nice to someone who isn't being nice because you never know who really needs to hear it!

🎉congratulations on your recent marriage you are such a amazing couple xxx
We always tease my sisters family about bringing the bad weather with them when they visit us in New Zealand.
💚😃
Can you make a video of Katie current hair length regrowth measurement update and her long hair ponytail and single braiding by Jojo ?
The recipe should just be called ‘The Name That Nobody Knows!’ 😂
Good luck to Sam and Emily in their new home! ❤
Picnic on the beach would be mine 😄 I hope Sam and Emily have many happy memories in their new home ❤
Oooh a picnic on the beach is a great idea!!
Shopping, I love a fun day shopping trip, especially when I go shopping for legos.
Fun day out ideas: beach trip, spa day, afternoon tea at a posh hotel, meal at a Micheline star restaurant or a famous chefs restaurant, trip to a big indoor shopping centre/mall to go shopping.
Lol .... when I moved out at 18 my Mom cried so hard. I'm an only child. Then she cried when I joined the Air Force. Then both my Mom and Dad cried when I went to Desert Storm. Dad was upset I volunteered. Happy ending . Moved back home at 53 to care for them both until they passed. So blessed! So don't worry you have one left to spoil and the others will always be coming home! Plus you're Grandparents ...how cool is that!? Much Aloha and E Komo Mai (Welcome Home)🤙🌈❤
This comment really made me teary - good teary that is. It's like I could totally imagine the feelings your parents were going through at each stage - leaving home, air force, Desert Storm, and then to have that lovely ending of you caring for them, just beautiful 💚
And yes we're still very appreciative of having JoJo here with us of course little Astrid from time to time 😊
Thank you again 🙏
Why didnt ur older kids didnt go wiv u xx
We’ve been to London with our kids last week. Unfortunately we missed sky garden. So, I’d love to go there for a fun day out!
I moved out at sixteen and my sister at 18 moved out at same time my poor dad went from three girls at home to one at home but we all came back for bits
Hope you guys had a lovely holiday, thanks for bringing us a long for some of it. It’s always sad and hard when people we love move out, I remember when both my sister moved out on different occasions and that was emotional and hard but I knows it was best for them moving on and doing different stuff. Sending love to you all and love and luck to Sam and Emily in their new home #freegang #livebutnotlive #freedomfamily
Been Loving you all from Belfast Ireland
Thanks Gemma! 😊
I’m currently in McDonald’s in Salisbury, UK about 10 miles or so from Stonehenge. It’s busy but enjoying a happy meal - been struggling with tonsillitis but on the ends of it. I also met the abc last Sunday too.
Watching from Kingston Ontario Canada.. Love your channel
Thank you 🙏 🇨🇦👋🤗
Nice to see u back it's sad about Sam and Emily moving out xx
Live but not live from Belfast! I love your new intro with the Barbados videos! Very lovely 😁
Thank you!! 😃
theme park or see family fizz😂 coming live but not live from Manchester ❤️ also love the new intro😊
It’s nice to hear Sam an Emily are making their growing up move keep rising love your friend in Sydney Australia xxx
Much love Peggy 🇦🇺💙👋
London ,but off to Malta next week 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Have a great time!! 🇲🇹😊
Congratulations to Sam and Emily I'm sure they are excited. My sister's son is around Sam's age and when he came home from college he soon moved out with his girlfriend. It was sad and an adjustment but my sister sees the both of them for bbq or just hanging out. It definitely is more of quality time together. As far as kitty goes I will keep the good vibes going for you guys to find the right home for him. Wishing you the best of luck.
Thank you Karen! 🙏
Hi family freedom hope you are well and having a good day!
Great to see you guys back!
Live but not live from London!
I think you guys should go to the theatre! And see wicked as you said on comment once you wanted to take jojo!
Good luck to Sam and Emily! Now you will hopefully get some peaceful sleep without Sam being on his game at night 😂
Have a good day:)
Just keep rising💚🌻🌿
Hey Lana! We hope you're having a good day too! 😊
Ooh seeing Wicked is a great idea, that's definitely on the list! 👍
Ah yes the peaceful sleep is so good now!!! 😂😂😂
Good morning from Perth Australia. I am switching over to a plant based diet and was wondering if you could do a video on pantry basics for a beginner vegan please.
Live but not live from 🇮🇪 a sticky humid wet Ireland. Yes you are right I have two cats both neutered, it’s the best thing for him. Xx
😊💚
Hey guys I'm in Queensland Australia i had my second baby girl 6 weeks ago I'm feeling more myself im glad you guys has amazing holidays xo
Congratulations on the birth of your little one 🎉 So glad that you're feeling more yourself, it can be so tiring in those first few weeks 💤🤗💚
What about one of the many themed afternoon teas for a fun day out? ❤
Love the new intro
Thanks Lucy!! 😊
Awww I would cry too if my daughter moved out xx she keeps asking to move out but with her having autism and I've trued giving her things to do around house like cooking she forgets cooker on nearly had a fire it's just her concentration I worry about xx
That's completely understandable. As a parent you want to give your blessing to them moving out but you know you can only truly do that if you know they're going to be 100% ok 💚
A bit off topic, but, I will be making the protein balls and was wondering if I can change the mulberries for another dried fruit as I can't find dried mulberries here in Perth Australia
Yes I think raisins might work well with the recipe 💚
With rehoming, even if you have to really research the family the cat goes to, then that's a good idea. I often am at the cat cafe in my hometown here in New Zealand (Catnap Cafe) and they do adoptions regularly, so I've learnt a lot. They are very picky about who their cats go to and also the vibes they get from applicants. Main roads for cats (or living near main roads) is a big no-no for them. Definitely recommend getting him neutered as soon as possible. My Uncle and his family love cats, but were SUPER negligent about a few of their past cats and let them have 6 or 7 litters, which is quite awful for the cat to go through. So, you definitely don't want him impregnating lots of other cats. Also, once he goes into heat, you will know about it!!
So yeah. Be selective with who you let him go home with ❤
Hey Ashlea, thanks for all of your helpful advice, we're definitely being picky as we want to make sure that he'll be safe and loved - but responsibly, where an owner always prioritises what is best for him. Thanks again 💚
It's too hot outside and I am sweating
Hi you two I live in Leamington spa Warwickshire
Live but not live from Spokane Washington. Been on a week vacation from work. Been working on a story, diamond painting and REALLY studying about driving. Today I’m going to get my haircut then go visit my adopted grandma
Hey Hannah! It sounds like you've been having a great vacation, have fun! 😊🇺🇸
I unfortunately had to say goodbye to my lil one (I say lil one he was 15yrs old) today n my heart is completely broken… I like to think that he’s now joined his best friend (my lil girl who was my emotional support animal… she passed 14 months ago 1 month before her 4th birthday) n there now together again…. He missed her so much after she passed but took on her role of supporting me… it’s so strange being bac home wit out him… xxxx
We're so sorry for your losses, that must have been so hard for you. We're sending you all our love 💚
@@FamilyFreedom Ty so much for ur love… I have to admit it’s been extremely hard… To have lost both of my emotional support animals with in 14 months of each other has really messed me up… My mental health has started to spiral n I’m struggling to stay afloat because I don’t have those reassurance from either of them anymore…
It was at times like these that Megs would come n lay wit me (sometimes for hours) so we could have cuddles… Over the 3 years that Megs was wit us Spud watched her every move… How she was wit me n learnt the cues that would let her know I wasn’t doin well n that I needed her even tho I didn’t know I did until she was there… Then after she passed he took on the role right away… Its as tho Megs knew she was unwell n had a conversation wit Spud n gave him direct orders (even tho spud was 10yrs older she was always the boss n the one that wore the trousers in there relationship) to follow up on for her… It was so out of the blue it shocked us all to see him do just what she use to do… I feel so lost without those nudges n cuddles from either of them…
I’ve had a couple of ppl tell me that they r “just cats” but to me they were so much more than that… They were my world n my lil heroes xxx
Rowley, Massachusetts U.S.A. Loved your wedding photos
Thank you, sending big love 🇺🇲💙
Lately our fun day out has been breakfast at witherspoon then arcades and ice-cream on the seaside in South shields or a day out a high force waterfall followed by a wonder around Barnard Castle ❤
Oh wow those all sound amazing! Thanks for the suggestions 👍
Hope you enjoyed barbados ❤
Live but not live from my very hot home in leeds
My ideal. Fun day out would be eigher a day out at the sea side, in the arcades, or a day at the funfair or theme park.
Sounds like some great ideas, thank you 😀
It was different with me, my mum kicked my brother out, then a few year's after when i was 23, she moved out and signed the house over to me and ive lived in it ever since, with my mum moving back in for bout 20yrs, then moved back out ten months ago cos we where arguing, but now do everything together and go everywhere together, and i live in wakefield, west Yorkshire. X
I understand it is bittersweet moments having your own child moving out of family home. But in most cases moving out means growth especially as adults. moving and being independent is a good way to experience new adventures and help us grow by finding our own feet into this world of ours. I remember the day I decided to move out on my own it was the best decisions I have ever made and it has made my relationship with my parents stronger.
This is so true. As much as there is sadness like it is the end of an era, we also recognise the benefits for them and for us too, and we know it is something that they need to move forward in their lives. Thanks for your comment 👍
I took a friend's kitten back in August at 16 week old last yr, he's my baby, he was mistreated. I'd love you guys to meet us xx
Great to see Katie, Bob and Jojo back in sunny 🌞 UK and I am live not live from Scotland. I am sorry but I laughed 😆 with the attempts to name the recipe ( it made the video more entertaining and funny). Love 🥰 the video and love 💕Family Freedom.
I’m pretty sure the naming is still going on
@@mered30 The naming will continue until the end of time.
@@davidthescottishvegan definitely
The recipe naming is still going on 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 So glad you enjoyed the video 💙
@@FamilyFreedom lol
Hi coming to you live but not live from North Wales ❤
👋🏴
Congratulations to Sam and Emily xx
Thank you 😊
When I moved out at 25 to move to another city to live with my boyfriend my mum cried for days as I was her only daughter and last child to move out my dad also found it hard aswell my mum did come visit me a few times before she got to ill and sadly passed away nearly 5 years ago . I always make time to visit my dad when I can
Yeah these situations are always difficult for both parents and child, but maybe that's a testament to the relationships 😊
We're sorry to hear of your mother's passing nearly 5 years ago and are sending you and your family love 💚
Oh my favorite days out are probably arcade days! I just love them 😂❤️
And I can’t believe Sam & Emily moved out! It’s so tough as a kid I think too to move away from your parents because it’s a change and change can be exciting but sometimes difficult!
Why not keep it as a guest room so that they can always come visit ❤️
Yes Shauna! An arcade day!! For us that includes seaside too - so probably chips and ice cream as well!! 😂
You're right, there's definitely good and bad about these change, we'll see how it all pans out in time. A guest bedroom is a great idea, thanks! Not just for Sam/Emily but Jamie, Astrid other relatives/friends too 😊
Sending you and your family love 💚
LIVEXUTNOTLIVE Coming to you from Cheltenham. Hope you had a good holiday in Barbados, thanks for bringing us along. 👍
Thanks for coming, we were so happy to share our adventure with you 🤗💙
@@FamilyFreedom I enjoy seeing what u do. 👍
Jesus when you said walking past with his computer I was gone I started crying 😂 hormonal pregnant jamie Sat here 😂😂
Pregnancy always brings the big emotions out so much more 😂 When is your baby due? 💚💚💚💚
@FamilyFreedom I have no idea around 7/8 weeks pregnant I have a scan on the 30th June that's also our wedding anniversary and the same date we ever saw our son arthur on his scan date aswel. I had a miscarriage in February but with how iv been lately I feel like everything is going smoothly especially with the morning sickness 😫 xx
Am sorry 😮
Hi guys I have a good game reccomendation for you since I know JoJo likes geography and you all like board games. It's called 'Who Knows Where?' And you all have a counter and you have cards and its either a picture or a question/statement and the game bord is the world map with labels of certain places and whoever is closest wins the round. Theres also a hard mode on the other side of the bord where you have smaller counters so the location of the answer is more precise and the map has no labels on so you cant see where a certain country is if you're not sure. I played this with my family at christmas and it was so much fun even though I didn't win. I'm also homeschooled but im older than JoJo lol.
I hope that all makes sense and I hope you try the game out it's so fun! Also i reccomend getting the Aquila magazine subscription it's so good for home schooling. I reccomend you search about it. It's a yearly subscription and you get a new magazine each month . Every month it's a new topic. It's for age 8-14 year olds I think.
Anyways sorry this is so long bye!❤
Oh, wow, this games sounds great! We'll definitely check it out and show it to JoJo (we've shown him this comment), thanks for recommending, it sounds right up his street! 😊
@FamilyFreedom ohhh you're welcome hope you like it if you get it❤❤😊
katie is so funny😂
🤣🤣🤣

Hey Greg 👋🤗
It didnt look like they had a window in that room x
They had a window but the blind was pulled down 😀👌
You should get him neutered 100%. He's more likely to get into fights with other cats and also might spray in the house which gets a lot of cats returned to shelters. I don't know if there is rescues in the UK but maybe you could work with them to make sure he doesn't get into the hands of the wrong people. I would like to say though, that having a home where he sometimes spends time alone is still better then being in a shelter with no home, especially in a kill shelter.
Thank you so much for sharing this information, we truly appreciate it 🙏💙
Our fun day out is a trip to Chester zoo love it there live but not live from the Midlands
Awh, know that feeling just gone through this myself! At the same time of losing by beloved black cat. I dont know why black cats are not so popular popular. Must loving cat around!! 🙀❤️

#livebutnotlive from Pennsylvania USA... I've played Ticket to Ride... it's one of my favorite games. I would go to the beach and the boardwalk. You should absolutely get the cat neutered. I wish Sam and Emily the best of luck in their new place.
Hey Amanda, thanks for your comment, it's nice to hear of another Ticket To Ride enthusiast! 😊
No pressure to answer this but I’m just curious ❤ are Jamie and Auden still together and is Astrid ok 😢no meen to offend you sorry if I do by the way I love you loads and you always make my day ❤❤❤❤

@@FamilyFreedom 🙃😂
Hi my name is Ellen
Hi Ellen!!! 👋😊
You look so young How old were you when you had your first child.
I was 18 when I first had Sam 😊
Awh, you'll probably see him more now lol. Try and set a day every week to sit down and have a meal together. That would be nice. They can have you over sometimes too. Maybe a nice roast on a sunday. Hes sad too, you never stop wanting your mum
why don't you ask people whether they want to adopt the cat
live but not live from da bungalow.
Definitely neuter him that will help with rehoming. Because he is black cat they are less likely to go to a new home (I’ll never get it I have a black cat and she is AWESOME.
Agreed I had a black cat and he never brought me any bad luck. He was a cheeky boy but also a soppy boy. He loved to play but also loved to hunt. Sadly he was stolen in 2019 (along with some other cats in our street and local community) and due to him being on medication we know he wouldn’t have survived.
I got a black cat he is the most loving cat ever xx
@@EmilyCheetham I’m so sorry for your loss of your beautiful boy.
@@lucys5231 I agree mine is too. That’s why I just don’t get it. We don’t care about color animals we look for personality.
Thanks for your advice guys, and sorry for your loss @EmilyCheetham 😊
have you tried calling cat protection they might be able to get advice on what the best thing to do with this little guy they have volunteers who collect the cats and take them to the center's one of our old next door neighbours abandoned her pregnant cat out side who gave birth and wasn't feeding the mum properly so we called them and they came out and took the cat and they have both found loving new homes . might be worth calling them as they will be able to check his health and neuter him at the same time . hope this helps if it it dosent i am more than happy to take this little guy in as i work full time from home and he would get spoiled rotten with loads of attention and fuss please let me know
Hey Kayleigh, thanks for your advice. Cat protection sound great we're definitely look into them and thank you too for offering to take him we'll definitely consider it 🙏
