    The plastic drawers is GENIUS for all the little bits and pieces of games. And I love the label on the binder clip for the boards. Thank you for sharing this!

    I'm a new subscriber and I love your content. I am soon to be married and I think a lot about having children. I feel so inspired by the way you live with your family and your philosophies about the intimacy of child birth really spoke to me. I would really like to see a video about how your children remain individuals while being raised in such a tight family unit. Each of your children seem to have their own special qualities and I am very interested in hearing your perspective about what makes them different from each other (if you wish to share). thank you for sharing your life with us!

    this is so smart. I never wiuld have thought of getting rid of the game boxes. I also did not know the tops of the storage bins were removable. :)

    hello how are you doing today. I am so glad that you can show everybody how to organize and keep and keep everything together. I come from a family of 11 children so I know how chaotic a big family can be. keep up the good work love your children squeeze your children. And may you guys have angels on your shoulders

    What a great idea for games! Boxes on anything take up so much room, you could do this with almost anything! Thank You

    I love your solution to the mess of games and their boxes! I am definitely considering doing this to at least some of our's. Thank you for the tips!

    I don't have games - I have craft items, knickknacks and other assorted items

    Oh my gosh Angela, you are so organized! My desire is to be super organized but I can never figure out how to do it. The best thing would be for you to come over to my house and do all of this for me. LOL! But, I will settle for the next best thing of just copying your videos. Thanks for sharing your life!

    @InHimAlone 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    Oh my goodness, this is so smart! I am definitely doing this. I am thinking we will have fewer lost pieces as well. Some of those cardboard boxes as so junky things just fall out. I had a Dressy Bessy as a kid as well :)

    Not sure if you would like this idea but I feel like it would be cool if all of you got white tshirts and tie dyed them together at home and wore them along with your like weekly color theme for whenever you wanna be more fun or something

    • @TheMillsFamilyVlog
      @TheMillsFamilyVlog  8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      We did make tie-dyed shirts once. They were cute and fun to make!

    How do you keep the little ones from pulling things down and touching all the things you have arranged around your house? xoj

  • @talianadine4378
    @talianadine4378 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    No way!! I never would have guessed that you guys play magic the gathering! I find that not many people play it near where I live.

    • @TheMillsFamilyVlog
      @TheMillsFamilyVlog  8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Tom and some of our boys play every Friday with a big group about 30 miles from us. We play as a family on the first Monday night of each month. We call it Magic Monday. :) We start Magic Monday by playing a matching game with old token cards so the little ones feel like they get to participate.

    • @talianadine4378
      @talianadine4378 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Wow that's super neat!! I wish the rest my family played the game 😊

    • @TheMillsFamilyVlog
      @TheMillsFamilyVlog  8 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      I use a Brother P-Touch label maker that is PC compatible. It's one of my favorite tools and I use it all the time!

    How does your family do Christmas? What special traditions do you have? How do you shop?

    • @MascaratoMidnight
      @MascaratoMidnight 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      We are a family with 8 kids and I actually answer this question in one of my videos if you are interested in another view of how one large family does cmas.

  • @Kelseybelsey9
    @Kelseybelsey9 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    Do you guys have a schedule for when everyone bathes? Is it just whoever gets there first, certain kids on certain days? Might be a good video to make!

    • @TheMillsFamilyVlog
      @TheMillsFamilyVlog  8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      We do schedule baths, but it kind of changes with the season. I'll keep it in mind for a video.

  • @MascaratoMidnight

    Where did you buy the sterlite containers? Hoping to pick them up pretty reasonably.

    When did you remove your kitchen wall, it looks great

    • @TheMillsFamilyVlog
      @TheMillsFamilyVlog  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      We tore it down last spring. It's so nice without it!

    • @heathermicola3894
      @heathermicola3894 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      I have watched alot of your older videos so I guess I am use to seeing it and have never noticed it in newer videos.

  • @kateliskowich5468
    @kateliskowich5468 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    You should vlog! :)

    • @TheMillsFamilyVlog

    And I just noticed your kitchen wall is gone!

    • @TheMillsFamilyVlog
      @TheMillsFamilyVlog  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, we tore it out this spring. I wish we had done it a long time ago!

    • @InHimAlone
      @InHimAlone 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      It probably makes it feel a ton bigger in there!

    @MisceyAsh21 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    You should start monetizing your videos, I've noticed you've gained a lot of subscribers recently. And you could actually start making some money off your channel! It wouldn't be much but I'd like to watch your videos knowing your being paid for your work!

  • @audreyaudreyaudreyaudreyaudrey
    @audreyaudreyaudreyaudreyaudrey 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    Do you buy subscribers? I've noticed that you gain about 1,000 subscribers every day, and that's pretty unbelievable. I'm sorry, I don't mean to be rude!

    • @TheMillsFamilyVlog
      @TheMillsFamilyVlog  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      I didn't even know buying subscribers was a thing. Do people do that? I don't know what happened. I started my channel last October and I was up to 500 subscribers in July. By the end of August I'd reached 3,000. All of a sudden it's snowballing. I don't really pay attention to any of the analytics, but I think maybe it's because so many people are watching my boys' bedroom video.
