I love your channel so much. You’re living a dream that my late wife and I dreamed of. We bought 20 acres in northern Arizona in 2013 dreaming of living away from it all, but then our oldest son died suddenly and my beloved wife of 35 yrs went into a place that led to her death less than 10 months later. Our dream is over but watching your family has been so inspiring, your hard work has reaped so much for your family. The way you work together as a family is truly amazing. Godspeed
The first video I saw from them was when the wife was giving tips on processing rabbits, they've come a long way since those times. I'm happy that their life turned out so amazing, I'm very inspired by them. Do you have a homestead?
I agree WWOG and Alaska Simple Living are both great channels. The personality of the couples, the work they do and the fun they have while doing it. Some of my other favs are Chateau de Montmagner, Talasbuan or Green Dream Project. Very different settings, great couples. I am sooo looking forward to what all those channels will achieve 2021 (including GSL of course)
@@Pixics No, I garden a tiny bit and will have some chickens someday in my (further out) future. But not much more. But I love to see the development of homesteads over years including building homes, gardens, animals, families..TH-cam gives the possibility to follow a wide array of people, lifestyles and buildings. Always something new to learn. (As Jess of Roots and Refuge says *Turn your waiting room in a classroom." ;)
You are officially my favorite people. You went from “I just walked away” in regards to the fish and then Jeremy is asking about you pole dancing! Best ever. Thanks for being REAL ❤️!
George Tucker a good idea. If you put ice on that helps the bump from forming another trick after that is to rub Vicks Vapo rub on and that helps any bruising forming. My mother in law taught me that.
There's just something about the sound of saws and power tools while watching building projects come together that's so relaxing. Add to that the beautiful scenery and you get a perfect video. Great job you two!
I love you you tube channel you so are amazing!! You house is beautiful and you all did a awesome job with the details and finishing the entire project. Most people complete it enough to live there and never finish it.
You did a great job, it looks fantastic!! Looks like you can now take a break until spring before you start building your home...might need to rest a bit. Love seeing you two having such a sweet and loving time together...have a great rest of the weekend
You two are a hoot. Your chemistry makes this channel. Do you have a scrap dealer to take the metal? Most of my steel is sold to a scrapper. I don't make much. But, it's better than a landfill. I built a similar stairway. Running a quarter round bit with a router down the hand rails. Made them much more comfortable to use.
Great outcome of the stairway. How's your head feel. I felt that. You have a lot if property exploring to do. Old relics to be found. Love the breathtaking views you have.
When you mentioned the opening scene of “Look Who’s Talking” I knew what you were about to say. 😁. I watched it with my niece and as soon as I saw it I knew she was going to ask. Niece: What is that? Me: Ask your mother.
Awesome all the projects are complete that you said that you wanted to do. Now you have the space under the stairs set for storage and setup. I do have to say keep them aerial views coming. What absolutely stunning scenery you keep showing us, I am in love with your views from your pole barn to in the air looking down. Until your next post and video have a wonderful rest of your evening and a peaceful Sunday!
@Margot Cavanaugh Here’s to hoping everyone stays safe as possible and stays healthy. Too many rumors and hate filled hearts fabricating stories to be able to discern what the real deal is.
I really appreciate and enjoy your channel and the time you take to upload a new video.The scenery at your property is just beautiful ❤️.I love the way you finished up the staircase and the upstairs.. Blessings to your family as always
it is so interesting to see how the cats are so interested in all the jobs you do as i have just viewing the finish of the ceiling in the great room.as I review this video.
I'll bet that "cheerful" sign could have been saved with a little angle grinding on the backside. Cast iron is likely held together with some kind of hammered hot rivet holding it in place. Priorities... Does a section of rail come off for loading with the bucket?
You have such a beautiful family. So obvious how much love is present. You guys are an obsolete awesome inspiration ( for lack of words ). Anyways I can't thank you enough for sharing with us. Not only your homesteady/farmhouse but also your family. You guys are definitely awesome people in every sense. For real !
I haven’t said before but I feel the need to now 😂 but I just Love your Shar Pei so smart and those skin folds 💕 and have completely enjoy watching all of the work you have done in the short period of time
Another great episode with the Souza's, but I have a complaint. How many projects have you all finished? How many happy dances have we seen? Someone is slacking... tsk tsk. LOL
Well that should’ve been easy. It wasn’t about the birds and bees it was about the egg and fishes. 😂 The staircase and railings look awesome. What a good job you guys did.
Y’all are GREAT! Love your channel. You shouldn’t have any problems with the house build, after all, you have the best supervisor I’ve ever seen! MABEL! God bless your family! 😹😸😻
I bought Garrett Ace 400 and have been around my property, amazed at what I found. Plus, teach the kids how to use it and keep them busy. If you found that camp, what else did they drop, like coins, watches, etc, and then display them. Plus, how many other camps are on your property?
Liked, those stairs look amazing now they r finished so safe for the kids and they love them well done a job completed perfectly keep it up, please stay in touch and Take Care my friends!
I should do that too. I walked across our yard & it kept going off. We live in an old farmhouse built in 1940. I bet there’s lots of stuff in the ground too. Great idea, thanks!
Eels. Those are eels, swimming towards the sun. They just dove in to check it out. See what a star looks like on the inside. Lol. That's the story. One day, they'll all mysteriously figure it out. That's my plan anyway. Lol.
Mr. Gayle Charpentier ,New Iberia Louisiana .Today i started you and your family building the new home ,Great job .It's good to see people the home they want Great Job. God Bless.
When my son was young and he would ask questions that we weren’t prepared to answer at that time we would just reply with “I’m not sure that’s natures way”
There were some beautiful, ornate iron pieces in that scrap. It would be awesome if you could create some kind of art piece commemorating the history of the area. Stairs look strong and solid. Great job.
I just found your channel and I must tell you how happy I am for you all...first thing comes to mind, there is no time for any arguing lol....too much work to do and your children are absolutely remarkable...You do not give up and appear to be very very happy and I am blessed to witness this love you all have for each other...More and more couples are doing just what you have and are doing to sustain a very healthy life style...God Bless and very excited for you all...thank you for sharing...
Definately save the Cheerful name plate and whole assembly and put it on eBay if nothing else...should get $60 to $150 depending on condition ...check it out. There is someone out there that could design a heating stove around that or is missing that specific piece...the parts of old stoves are a hot item in aftermarket....There was probably an old cabin there at one time...keep digging
Congrats on finishing your stairs & railing. You both did a beautiful job. Can't wait to see what else you start doing. I love watching you guys work together making your dream home. Hope to see more videos soon . Stay safe ,healthy ,& happy. God bless you & your family.
Better to give age appropriate answers than not tell them. I always answered my daughter's questions in the simplest form, just answering what she asked. Sometimes that was enough and sometimes she asked more questions.
hmmm... I asked my mom that at five and she told me. After several more questions she told me it all! I replied indignantly - “ Well! That does not sound nice at all!”. My mom was wrong. 🤦🏻♀️. 🤷🏻♀️
Why take those metal things to the dump. Don't you have a scrap yard somewhere that you can take them? That way you get payed for it instead of paying to take it to the dump.
It was nice of you to put a railing up to Neveah's new room! She looked a little scared on the stairs in her video, lol! P.S I'm coming over for a snow cone, lol!
They made it look so easy to build those stairs, I feel like it would take me a few weeks to even get finished with something like that. I guess that's what happens when you spend your days building your dream home.
Jeremy teased by Melisa for having a hole in his pants ... but wait, Melissa's pants look like after the war :D :D ... just kiding :P Greetings from Transylvania, Romania!
This is the first time I have ever seen a comment anywhere with someone stating they were from Transylvania! That's COOL! Literally you're on the other side of the world! Hi from Ontario, Canada!
I know this is an older build but i'm so glad for you people. My wife and i built our own home. we have 39 acres. it took us 3 yrs and 7 months but when we walked in it was all payed for. nothing like FREEDOM.
Im really enjoying watching your videos. Also loved the rapport of the both of you. Just watching how you both look at each other, i could feel the love, respect, trust and passion you have for each other.
It’s really cool seeing a little more about the property as a whole and it’s history. The stairs and railings look great. I’m so relieved that you are strengthening the railing with bolts too. Thanks for sharing and stay safe.
Oh, always love the beginnings that go over the land...awwwww...great video and you are protecting your family! As always...you guys are amazing...I love you and all my "homesteading" type videos...you make me smile, laugh, nod yes to relate and sigh..ahhhh...there is my America...Love ya'll and God Bless!

Now I know how to build stairs thanks to you guys!

je ne parle pas anglais mais je vous dis bravo pour votre travail en famille et de votre courage !!!! bravo encore à très bientôt !!!

Such a strong hand rail and staircase built for the loft. Enjoy
Watching these videos takes us back to when we started on a farm llife 65 years ago. wow 3 wonderful children
An excellent job was done on the stairs and railings, you two work so well together.
I love you you tube channel you so are amazing!! You house is beautiful and you all did a awesome job with the details and finishing the entire project. Most people complete it enough to live there and never finish it.
You did a great job, it looks fantastic!! Looks like you can now take a break until spring before you start building your home...might need to rest a bit. Love seeing you two having such a sweet and loving time together...have a great rest of the weekend
You were truly blessed when you found your low cost, scenic view property....Great find!
So loving this channel! Binged for 2 days lol
Everything you touch turnes out beautiful ! Isn't it the definition of a magician ? Except here everything is real no trick !
You two are a hoot. Your chemistry makes this channel. Do you have a scrap dealer to take the metal? Most of my steel is sold to a scrapper. I don't make much. But, it's better than a landfill.
I built a similar stairway. Running a quarter round bit with a router down the hand rails. Made them much more comfortable to use.
Oh joy the birds and the bees, the flowers and the trees, and a little thing called love!
Nice stairs and rail ,take care and God bless amen.
**YA'LL {WHOLE FAMILY} ARE SO CUTE TOGETHER!!!**
GOD BLESS YOU ALL!
I love Melissa's sense of humor! Please dont ever lose it. Great job with the stairs Jeremy!
Great outcome of the stairway. How's your head feel. I felt that. You have a lot if property exploring to do. Old relics to be found. Love the breathtaking views you have.
I luv the way you both interact and enjoying yourselves building your dream off grid farm. I can feel the love you both have for one another. 🤙🏽
Looks really nice 👍 Hard to believe you've built that with no experience!
The best family,la mejor familia un saludo ,un lugar hermoso para vivir
Just watch at the always smiling kids and you will know what a good life their parents have offered them.
A warm January often leads to a rough February. Good Luck, Rick
Hello Jeremy and Melissa we're is the snow , your scenery is breath taking I so enjoy your video
Wow, seriously guy's that's some great carpentry right there, what a fantastic job you did.
When you mentioned the opening scene of “Look Who’s Talking” I knew what you were about to say. 😁. I watched it with my niece and as soon as I saw it I knew she was going to ask.
Niece: What is that?
Me: Ask your mother.
I want to thank you for sharing your life with me. You are inspiring, informative and never fail to make me laugh
You can either use a cutting torch or grinding wheel to get the piece that says cheerful off.
I was thinking the same thing. Cut it off somehow and save it. Would have been a great decorative piece!!
Awesome all the projects are complete that you said that you wanted to do. Now you have the space under the stairs set for storage and setup. I do have to say keep them aerial views coming. What absolutely stunning scenery you keep showing us, I am in love with your views from your pole barn to in the air looking down.

it is so interesting to see how the cats are so interested in all the jobs you do as i have just viewing the finish of the ceiling in the great room.as I review this video.
I would put a food pantry under stairs . Later when not used for food pantry you could use it for storage.
I'll bet that "cheerful" sign could have been saved with a little angle grinding on the backside. Cast iron is likely held together with some kind of hammered hot rivet holding it in place. Priorities... Does a section of rail come off for loading with the bucket?
I love y’all’s channel. Y’all are so nice and I can tell y’all really love each other and are wonderful parents
Gives you lots of storage under the stairs for things you need to get to easily

Woww.. It looks sturdy, neat and nice! I love the smiles of the children as they went up the stairs
Take the router to the handrail so no splinters happen. Nice job.
Splendor greetings from the Czech republic every video with a woman we devour gratulation goooooooooood luck.
Another great episode with the Souza's, but I have a complaint. How many projects have you all finished? How many happy dances have we seen? Someone is slacking... tsk tsk. LOL

I have been waiting for the BIG HAPPY DANCE. Hopefully next video.
Good for you. It's nice to see successful young families just being successful in their dreams.

You r lucky man, with your wife’s help , really enjoy your vids, keep up the good work.
You might find some treasure on your land one man's rubbish is another man's treasure . The stairs going to the loft look amazing
That was an amazing staircase you built! You guys are so much fun to watch. I look forward to every video.
Should definitely get a metal detector to check out any areas where you found people possibly living/camping previously
I bought Garrett Ace 400 and have been around my property, amazed at what I found. Plus, teach the kids how to use it and keep them busy. If you found that camp, what else did they drop, like coins, watches, etc, and then display them. Plus, how many other camps are on your property?
I guess when you buy land, you never know what you will find there. I think that would also be fun to discover some treasure as well.
I'm a new subscriber and I've fallen in love with your family! Your homestead is amazing, the world needs more of your goodness.
♥️ Thank you. Welcome!
As my dad would say, Jeremy you build things “hell for stout”. Lol
Liked, those stairs look amazing now they r finished so safe for the kids and they love them well done a job completed perfectly keep it up, please stay in touch and Take Care my friends!
U guys should get a metal detector. Maybe u could find some historic coins!🙂
Rent one.
50 bucks at harbor freight works great. I found my father in laws lost wedding ring in a pile of dirt he was digging. That paid for it right there.
Great idea. Metal detecting was my dad’s hobby. Our area is huge in Civil War history. He found some great relics.
Might find some Gold in them there hills!
I should do that too. I walked across our yard & it kept going off. We live in an old farmhouse built in 1940. I bet there’s lots of stuff in the ground too. Great idea, thanks!
It would be so incredibly awesome to be able to restore that old wood stove.
Stay safe guys and God Bless You All.

Good luck on the bird's and the bee's. LOL
Very, very nice. You should be proud of every project you tackle.

I wouldn't be talkin' 'bout JEREMY'S jeans...girl, look at YOURS.
Like a land shark tried to get her...... It evidently provides cooling areas according to my daughter..

There were some beautiful, ornate iron pieces in that scrap. It would be awesome if you could create some kind of art piece commemorating the history of the area. Stairs look strong and solid. Great job.
Nevaeh needs a time out loft lol above the utility room for musical creativiness??
Oh that's a good idea, I've always wanted to have a loft, it' a great way to increase your living space when you are living small.

They haven’t forgotten about the fish the best thing is just to tell them the truth.
It's good to yell them in simplified terms. They will ask again later
Yes, definitely time to tell your kids how babies are made. Maybe Nevaeh already filled them in.
Better to give age appropriate answers than not tell them. I always answered my daughter's questions in the simplest form, just answering what she asked. Sometimes that was enough and sometimes she asked more questions.
I’m sure she will and I believe the point she was making is that she forgot about the beginning and was like oh crap...not today!
hmmm... I asked my mom that at five and she told me. After several more questions she told me it all! I replied indignantly - “ Well! That does not sound nice at all!”. My mom was wrong. 🤦🏻♀️. 🤷🏻♀️

Why take those metal things to the dump. Don't you have a scrap yard somewhere that you can take them? That way you get payed for it instead of paying to take it to the dump.

The stairs look fantastic..you could add shelves under the stairs or makes another great storage place..pinecrest has tons of ideas...love it!!
I laugh. My wife worked in corrections for over 20 years she say he stands and talks like an officer.
I hope you kept the cheerful part of the stove! That will make great garden art!
