  • I wanted to remember our old house before I packed it all up and moved. And I thought some of you might like to see a full house tour, too, which has been one of my most requested videos over the past decade of my TH-cam journey. I will always remember this home fondly but am excited for new memories and adventures to come. Thanks for watching ☺

    It feels strange to be sad about a house I never lived in but it feels as though we all grew up in this house with you. I think that’s a testament to how amazing you are. We’ve followed you for years as you’ve navigated the ups and downs of life, through both happy and uncertain times and now it feels like we’ve reached the end of the book. But that’s just means we’re going to start a new adventure 😊 sending you lots of love and well wishes for a bright future filled with love, light, and endless fun. You’re such an incredibly kind person and I’ll be a loyal follower until the end ❤️

    Hope your new home is a better fit for you! It seems like your home was better suited to your lifestyle with Don pre-children (hot tub, basement, formal dining-living room). There were so many spaces that didn’t seem to suit your needs anymore. Looking forward to joining you on your new journey in the new home. A fresh new space for a new start!

    The relationship that you have with your kids sends shivers down my spine. It's so cute to see how much CC and Donny get along and I love watching you love your children. The house is beautiful, it's going to be so strange to see videos in a new location, I've been with you in this house for quite a while and I'll miss it as I'm sure you will as well. I have been obsessed with your kitchen since you got it redone, it's just absolutely stunning. Such a beautiful house with wonderful memories.

    I too am facing leaving my home of almost 35 years and raising two children in our first home. The bath times and family gatherings, happy times and sad times, neighborhood friendships but just that feeling of loving my home and being safe. My daughter said yesterday that it won't be the same home that we will remember, I can only wish that another family will want to live there. Our home was filled with love and so many dreams, but we will take them with us. I lost my husband a year ago and didn't want to rent my house out so it sat empty until I was able to put it on the market. Watching your video and knowing what you must be going through and having to say goodbye to the old house and how hard it is with tears streaming. I wish you happy times ahead as you start a new chapter in life. It's a good thing that you filmed it, such a good idea. The best is yet to come Jen!

    Even though it was 20 years ago, I remember moving out of my home when I divorced. I wish I'd taken pictures or videos of that home, but at the time, I was just surviving and taking care of my son. As sad as it was, when my son and I moved into our first place on our own, the feeling was one of pure peace.

    I've followed you less over the years once you had the littles, as I don't have kids of my own. But I've been watching you on and off for gosh, 7-8 years? now. I remember finding your videos when I first went out on my own, and admiring you so much. I continue to admire you, and have found you again with this life transition you're going through.
    It's such a wonderful change to see so many positive comments as well. For so long, people have been absolutely horrible to you for no good reason, and you've deserved none of it. But you continue to post, continue to be positive, and continue to share so much of your life with a group of strangers.
    Sending you lots of love in this time, and also sending you good vibes for all that you're going through.

    This was actually kind of therapeutic for me to watch. I’ll explain: I’m very much a dreamer and not a realist at all. A “happily ever after” type of girl. I come from a divorced family and it broke me in ways that feel irreparable. Hearing the positivity in your voice and moving away from your beautiful home reminds me that I need to stop thinking that life is a fairy tale and $&@! happens to all of us-and life can still be beautiful-or even more beautiful.
    I’ll miss your home but I can see why it’d be time to move on. All the best to you and your family!

    Not gonna lie, I LOVED this house. I don't know why I'm feeling so sentimental. I just hate divorce. I hate what it does to the family, but of course I don't think anyone should stay married if they are unhappy. I wish you & your precious kids nothing but the best. I really do. I'm still sad though, but it's probably bc I'm also sick right now so it doesn't take a whole lot for me to get down.

    @pretty neat living 😪 This makes me feel so sad. It just does. It took me a minute to get out of a funk when you first announced your divorce. So weird since we are essentially strangers.... but that is empathy for you & I can't control that. I wish you guys of all people & with children, could have just stuck to it & worked it out. We all go through different stages & changes in life... but... loyalty... loyalty is a rare thing. I certainly don't mean it as any form of slight.... I just hope you both gain perspective from being apart & realize that the grass is never going to be greener on the other side & get remarried one day. But... destiny sure will take hold, if it was ever meant to be. Once you let a thing go, it will come back to you, if it was ever truly meant to in the first place. You are just so kind & patient, , I didn't expect this. Obviously though, you know your own life & obviously know what's best for you & your kiddos. Regardless of whom though, you will one day find love again, being such a good soul... All the best. PS OLW is very therapeutic & thank you for turning me on to that 4 years ago. This is my third year going strong & I absolutely hold it in high esteem for my own personal growth & development. 💛 -Kelly

    The more I see of Jens videos since the split the more I feel like she found her voice and her confidence when she had the kids and that (without wanting to pry or know the details) she isn't a victim in this and we shouldn't feel sorry. She's strong and assertive. That's just the vibe I get. You've got this Jen. X

    I’ve been trying to think of something eloquent to say, but I’m honestly just choked up. I’ve been watching you since I was a freshman in high school, and now I’m 26 and have a career as a teacher. It’s been a joy watching you grow, and especially over these few months really find your shine. This house holds so many memories, but I am so excited for your and your family. 💜

    "I'm not crying...you're crying" Wow! Such an emotional, yet peaceful video that you shared. I have loved this house and all that you have done to make it a over for so many years. As you walked us through each space, I remembered the moments of laughing and the many thanksgiving and Christmas celebrations you shared with us. Such a beautiful memory. I wish you lots of love and best wishes on your next adventure :)

    The position of those two bedrooms is an imagine you’ll remember forever because that’s when your babies were little and in their first home ❤️ I have images of things from when my son was a baby and he’s only 3! We did move so I remember things from the old house

    Thank you for always being so honest and transparent. I discovered your channel four years ago when I was expecting my first child. I watched all of your pregnancy content, and enjoyed taking pointers from you. Sadly, my son, Nathan, passed away during labor and was stillborn. It took me a long time to be able to watch your channel again, but when I did, it was like visiting an old friend. I know that probably sounds super creepy, but I just wanted to say thanks for being an outlet of sorts, and I truly wish you and your family the best in this new chapter.

I feel like I am saying goodbye to this house with you Jen. I am so excited for what the future holds and I can't wait to see the beautiful new memories you make in your next home.

    I haven’t watched your videos in a while and I was so very sad to see this one. You built the home that you now must leave. Life sure throws some curves, even when we think we’re all set. You know the saying: Man makes plans. God laughs. As you begin your new journey, I want you to know how awesome you are and how much more there is ahead for beautiful lovely you. Just you watch. Love you sweetheart❤️

    My mom and I bonded over watching your youtube videos five years ago, up till this day I have continued to watch you and even share it with my partner. I admire you for being strong and courageous. I really want to say that you are one of the best TH-camrs and female role models for this generation. I will always continue to watch you and encourage you on your new journey!! Keep staying strong because I know the kids have a wonderful role model and mom growing with them

    Beautiful video. Your kids will appreciate it one day. My oldest child is 23 now and my youngest is 13. We moved from our first house to our current house when they were 10 and 10 months. We had the opportunity when that house came up for sale again recently to go back and walk through an open house. It was a nice walk down memory lane and it was fun to see what was still there from our time and what the homeowners after us had done. The kids got be in their old rooms, sit under the trees where they once played and see the old patio where they used to spend so many summer afternoons. And then it was nice to come home to our current house where we've made even more memories. I can't wait to see your new place! God's blessings to you all!

  • @Klamo19

    I’m a little late to this video but this really made me sad. I’ve been watching you since I was a freshman in college-I’m now almost thirty with a home of my own. Your videos in this house helped shape me into the homemaker I am. I still go back to your old holiday prep videos and party prep videos. That being said, I’m so excited to see what happens with this new chapter of your life and I hope you bring us along ❤️

You are lovely, creative, loving and strong. You. Have wonder, love and joy before you. I can’t wait to see how you decorate your new house and make it a home.

This was a well loved home and you made it that. Thank you for including us in all your times and even in this goodbye. I will miss the house ...but am excited for your next chapters ... May peace and love fill your soul as you begin these new adventures with your kids

    I remember the first video I ever saw of yours. A baby faced Jen sitting at her kitchen table showing us everything she had in her little emergency kit she carried in her purse, everything but the kitchen sink.....lol Everything in your bag neatly kept in its own individual bag....I found you so relaxing to watch. We have watched you grow into an amazing woman! You are so kind, and such sweet soul. I also remember bursting into tears when I first heard you were pregnant, I knew that was a job you were meant for! I know wonderful things are going to come your way , the future is going to be amazing for your little family! I am so excited to see what you share with us next as the new chapter begins! Love and hugs to you and your littles!!

    I’ve been watching you for 6 years. I originally found your channel because I have a Shih Tzu who is Winnie’s age. I always thought they’d be the perfect Shih Tzu couple. Seriously though, while you have a beautiful home, I know your new home will be just as wonderful. A house is only as good as the people living in it. Best wishes!

    Hi Jen! I was hoping you would do an old house tour! We could see areas we never saw. The home is just beautiful and the curb appeal is really lovely, though I'm not surprised. We will miss this old house, too! We have a lot of memories as your viewers. Holiday decorating and parties and seeing your children come home and grow in this house. Just a bunch of great memories and of course, you have way more. We will miss it....but I'm so happy for your new adventure and growth! Looking for more awesome journeys with you and the family! Thanks for sharing and God bless
