Courtney, I understand your sentiments regarding the loss of loved ones, particularly during birthdays and holidays. The anniversary of a loved one's passing is especially difficult. My granddaughter, my first grandchild, passed away at age five due to a brain tumor. She would have been eighteen years old today. The holidays and her birthday are emotionally challenging, and I deeply empathize with your grief over the loss of your grandparents. My daughter, who has no other children, is also struggling with this loss. I hope and pray she will have more children in the future.
Your grandma and grandpa are letting you know that they are alright ❤❤. I just love looking at your home when you film because it is so beautiful and the home projects be amazing!❤
Hi Courtney, loved watching you do your thing, you keep your home beautifully clean and tidy. Now the brick in the lounge, you made a good job of that girl, and it looks really nice, for the time being I wouldn't be in a rush to cover or change that in any way, but hey that's just what I feel, at the end of the day, it's your home, you do what makes you happy and comfortable there. Those pictures you've just had done are lovely, especially the two of the girls, they will look so nice in the lounge when you get round to it. I'm excited for you to start the make overs on your lounge because then you'll start on your bedroom and I just can't wait for that. Anyhow beautiful,see you next time, take care....🥰🇬🇧🐾🐾🏡❄️
My children are 13 months apart, it was like having twins, a big one and a little one. I wouldn't change it for the world! They are 45 and 46 now. I love watching you clean, it reminds me of the way I used to when I was younger, love your channel, so glad I found it❤
There are floating pool alarms as a back up system. Those girls really do look like twins. She's catching up really quick with her sister. I loved your last place but have to say this one is going to be even more beautiful. Thanks for all the warmth and love you put in these videos. ❤❤❤❤❤
I don’t anymore, but I’ve always had swimming pools where I lived. You fill up the pool, after it’s been repaired and straightened out, you fill it up and you get the filter going, of course you wanna check your filter make sure it’s working right, then you buy Pool shock. The amount of shock you will need depends on how many gallons of water are in there. You let that sit overnight you don’t backwash or anything and then you’ll see all the algae and dirt goes to the bottom then you use a pool brush and brush the sides. then you vacuum that to waste so it’s not really that hard. It’s just time consuming. You will love having a pool. Maintenance is pretty easy if you keep up with shocking at once a week adding the right chemicals in the beginning of the season. I can’t wait to see you start working on the pool.
Hi Courtney. Your soup looks so yummy. Your home is so pretty and very inviting! I just can't believe the transformation you and Kyle have done in such a short time. Have a blessed day ❤
I love the pictures, you have a beautiful family. I also love the black doors, they really pop. I lost my husband in 2016 and my Mom 3 months after him and it still hurts so much but I would never want them to be sick again. My children and grandchildren keep me going and that’s what I hold on too. God and your family will keep you going. Prayers for you.
Hi my lovely friend i hope your ok 🕊️ 🙏 it was so nice seeing the girls playing together i love the barn door painted black great idea Kyle and yes replace the wood its connected to with a stained piece take care & lots of love 🌹🥰
@@HomeSweepHome I'm so glad your feeling a little better my friend keeping busy does help some ❤️ I'm ok thankyou so much for asking means such a lot lots of love 🙏🥰🌹
When you build your deck just build a gate with a lock on the pool side . One thing I like about above ground pools is you can’t just fall in from below . They have so many things on the market now for safety it’s amazing. A friend of mine has a cover that you can walk across pool but not fall in . Love the black door
I like the brick the way it is around the tv!! You & Kyle have some big plans…can’t wait to see what y’all get into in the coming months!! Still here supporting you Courtney!!🥰
I think the brick on the columns looks good like it is now; I would leave it. Sookie is so cute still wearing her little glasses and both your girls are so adorable.
Courtney, I must tell you your hair is looking so pretty. Looks like you’re growing a little longer. Thanks for the great videos and love seeing those little girls too. You’re such a good mama. Poor Kyle is gonna have to sleep in after being up so early. Love your recipe. Blessings, my dear.❤
Thank you so much I truly appreciate you saying that I try my best❤️ also yes I am growing it out I’ve had short hair since I was 18 so I want to try it again after like 10 years to have it long lol
It’s really pretty and once it’s longer it gets in your face. You can just tie it all back. That’s what I do with mine. Kiss those little cuties for me and Miss moon pie. 💋💋💋
Bless your heart, hugs girl. ❤. I comment as I watch the video, I love the brick, I say keep it. Love, love, love the fireplace. Your girls are just precious, I can sit and watch my granddaughter play for hours. I love your big kitchen sink! Gonna have to try out the essential oils in the sink drain. Definitely salt on the cantaloupe here in Ky!. Girl, That pie! OMG! So good! Dinner looks delicious@ especially on these cold days! I tell you, pictures are so precious, and you have some good ones, they say so much.😊 Thank You so much for another great video, I so look forward to them, Have a great weekend with your precious family . Tootles!.
OMG, that chicken pasta supper had me drooling! I copied the recipe out and I have to try it soon! I don't have a crock pot, but we do have an Instant Pot; I'm sure it'll work, it should just cook faster in there. It looks like perfect winter comfort food!! 😋😋😋
Courtney, In my opinion just leaving the brick as is. I think it looks just fine. Your dinner looks great I’ll have to try it for sure. How’s the dishwasher working. We also have an above ground pool. Once you get it vacuum and clean in the summer it’s really easy to keep up. Just get a box of the chlorine tabs and a (we have) a floating ducky for the tabs. Loosing a close family member is hard but believe me it does get easier. And I whole hearty believe your grandma and pa are in your dream for a reason. Telling you their ok and so are you!!!!
Its okay to cry, dont keep those emotions in. It hasnt been that long ago since they went to Heaven so you're still greiving, and theres no time limit on grief. Great video as always❤ Teach those sweet baby girls to swim this summer and maybe put a alarm on a gate that goes to the pool when you build your deck, if that makes sense and I hope Im not sounding bossy, I dont mean to sound like that ❤ I use to love cantaloupe until my second pregnancy 22 years ago and to this day it makes me gag LOL. Have a great weekend 🩷
LOVE Her cute glasses!! I want😂. Love the black doors..yes take down the white board and put up a strained one. ❤ the chicken dinner look sooo good.. I'm going to mek it one night for dinner.. I put salt on my cantaloupe..yummy ❤
Hi Courtney 👋 great video and I love the brick,but it is your call in the end and whatever you decide will be great 👍 ❤❤ beautiful pictures. It might be the only way we can see moonpie 😆 Lol...take care and see you soon 😊 ❤❤
Thanks girl, I appreciate that! 😊🫶 I decided to leave the brick as is!! And I know her lazy butt doesn’t stroll through the videos anymore like when she was a kitten. Since we got her fixed it seems like she sleeps all the time and has about two spurts throughout the day if we are lucky lol 😂
My oldest two are 15months apart and they always played so well together and took care of each other! It is precious to watch. Love the black on the Barn door! I like the brick columns on the built in! I would leave it til you have a perfect plan in place. They look great. What ever happened to your big cow(steer) picture? Loved it over your couch. You are so blessed to have had such a wonderful relationship with your grandparents and I am sure they are so proud of you and are watching over you from heaven.🙏
You’re right about the brick columns! We will be leaving them as is and we had laid it down on the floor for a little bit one day when I was putting up Christmas decor and Moonpie tore it with her claws it was like a canvas she had her zoomies and went right over it 🤦♀️ BUT I did find one pretty identical from hobby lobby today that will be going over the couch I’m excited 😊
I love it when loved ones visit me in my dreams. I feel so much comfort to see them and when you get to hug them is so special but that’s just me cause I know they haven’t left me
Hey Girl that air stone is pricey for sure. You can come up with a cheaper option I'm sure of it. I'd do the beam first too! Love seeing your babies play together so sweet!
Hey sweet Courtney, Kyle, littles and Moonpie. Grief is natural. There will be days when it hits you out of nowhere, or with a saying, or song, etc. just remember they are with you and your family and how proud you have and continue to make them. Hugs..Those littles are the sweetest! They will remember how you both work hard, bc they already try to help! Love your door that color. Be proud bc we are and we care about you all. Have a blessed weekend.
Love your videos and all your up coming plans. As for your pool just make sure you have a sand filter because the ones that come with those requires too much work and don't keep pool clean. Up keep on them is not that bad as long as you don't run into any issues with your water. We have had one for almost 10 years now and we love it. I hope you all love it, it's a nice way to relax and have family fun.
Thanks for the tips! I can use all the advice cause we have no idea what we are doing when it comes to a pool lol now give me a paint brush and that’s a different story 😂
Sweet girl, don’t apologize for feeling your grief. Grief is an extension of your love. Grief doesn’t end because love doesn’t. You do learn to live without them physically but emotionally it is different. Give yourself time. I’m excited for all the new changes you have in store for your home. I enjoy hearing you talk about it and your excitement. I’m really proud of how you are working so hard with your mental health also. Your smile is beautiful. Remember one step at a time. You are a beautiful person, a wonderful wife, and an awesome Mommy. Remind yourself of these things. ❤❤❤
Hi Courtney enjoyed your video it's getting late been out shopping all day just getting a chance to look at your video. The girls so cute playing together. Your chicken recipe looks so good . Yall have a great weekend. These pictures so good . ❤
There are floating pool alarms. They are supposed to work great and an awesome back up system. Not very expensive. Those girls are beautiful. Getting so big. They do look like twins. Little one catching up quickly to her big sister. I loved your last place but this one is even more amazing. Thanks for all the hard work and love you put in all your videos. So appreciative. ❤❤❤❤❤
Your babies are just precious. You are just such a breath of fresh air with your excitement for your thoughts on makeovers. Looking forward to 2025 and your home renovations.
I had a pool alarm on my pool and it was a very nice reassurance! But please think about some swimming lessons for both those sweet girls! They offer them at most city rec centers or YMCA!
Hey girl heyyy! Another late watch for me lol just got back from a huge Sam’s haul. Love when it’s all done and put away but hate doing it not gonna lie. 😂 hope you and the fam are doing good today! ❤
Hey girl! The barn door looks great! ( you know I love black🤣) you might as well do all of them😆 Dinner looked so yummy! Sorry you’re feeling down about your grandma and grandpa 💔 It just hits ya out of nowhere Hugs❤️❤️
Hi Courtney and family it’s nice that you show your everyday life as it is sometimes we can’t get to do all that we want and it’s ok. As for your grief don’t apologize it’s a process which I myself am going through just like you some days are better than others 😊 the doors look great and as for the bricks in the living room, I like them as they are you did a really good job on them.
The doors look amazing painted black. You make painting look so easy I cannot stand painting I let my grown kids do it for me. The girls will always be best friends. Hope you have a great weekend. ❤
Good Afternoon Courtney, You're girls are so precious and beautiful. The background of the trees are beautiful when you are talking. Have a blessed day.
Watching the girls play is so precious💕 I see she has her glasses on like mommy cute ❤ it can't wait to see the living room video and the video for outdoor decorated.
Oh my gosh that recipe looks great. I’m going to have to try it. I have everything except that southwest sauce. Gotta go get some things from the store tomorrow anyway that I couldn’t get at Sam’s so I’ll put that on the list. Thanks for sharing that!
Basically what I said was like most people had said about grief. You will have periods in your life when it hits you like you just lost your loved one/s, and it can knock you down. But you will get back up again, and carry on, cause you have to, it's life, don't feel guilty for having those bad moments. We all have them, it's part of being human ❤. Also I commented on your "magic hands" lol. I was amazed at how you painted down the sides of the doors with black paint right up against a white wall like it was nothing, without smudging 😮. I also commented on how yummy your dinner looked. I told you I have the same barrel of flowers 😂. I told you I bought a different vacuum than yours. I paid $181 for it ( love it ), then yesterday went on Amazon and saw it was on sale for a limited time fir $125 😮. I called them up, hubby was laughing saying " They're not gonna give you anything", I said "Watch me". They're refunding me the difference, so ner ner to him 😂. Looking forward to future upcoming projects 😁. Love you guys ❤❤❤❤❤. Is Mr. Clean your new go to spray cleaner now? 😊
Hey! Idk why TH-cam does that to peoples comments I know that has to be so frustrating!! That’s so funny about the vacuum what did he say when you got a refund on the difference? lol and I’ve really been liking the clean freak cleaner lately 😊🫶
@HomeSweepHome He laughed, and said, good for you, I knew you were determined, lol. It's Sunday now, and we're in the middle of a snowstorm. I took some winter decs down, and put Valentines decs in their place, I'll put them back when Valentines is over. Relaxing now and staying warm and snuggly 😂❤.
Hi Courtney and family. I am so sorry about your grandma and grandpa. They will be with you always. Grief is nothing but LOVE. The harder the grief the bigger the love. I know because my only child passed two years ago. I still cannot talk about. SHE WAS MY WORLD. I love the door black. You made me hungry while cooking. It looked delicious. Your girls are so precious! Have a great weekend.♥️
You just made me want to get up and clean my kitchen. For reals. That look your babies gave you when you said ain’t they so cute. I see the older one is still wearing those pink glasses. They are so cute.
NOTHING wrong with "sitting on my tushy" "with a blanket over me"! You keep visitin' with us, Courtney.... come here to listen to us visit back! Snow is coming for you and I... spring temps. soon enough, then we'll be outside from morning till night. I know you're missing your grandparents... know that, for many of us here, you have a place in our hearts, thoughts, and prayers.
Me my sister are year half apart.. we are still best friends even in our 50s.. sookie is so cute wanting to look like her mama..love all the updates.. take care.❤
@ lol that’s too funny I remember those days lol I do miss those newborn scrunchies though where the scrunch up into a little ball when you pick them up 🥰
My heart goes out to you, losing a loved one is never easy and you will always have those moments of sweet memories will come to mind. On another note, I love how you did the entrance, I wish you would have done both sides because when you open the front door you see the bare wall first and a little larger rug int the center would look better. Maybe a cow hide rug. You do an amazing job with your family and home ❤ I like salt and pepper and I also like the cantaloupe cut up in gravy.
I can never find Cracker Barrel pancake mix in our Walmart for the life of me. Also I put salt on my cantaloupe but not pepper. By the way I love the brick look in your living room. ❤❤❤❤ your girls are so stinkin cute.
Next time you go try and look on the isle with the biscuit mix like in the same exact area as the biscuit mix that’s where I find it in my Walmart. As odd as it is it’s with the biscuit mix instead of all the other pancake mixes lol
God bless you! I am a grandmother now, but my grandparents raised me, I always lived with them on a farm! I had the best childhood. We worked hard and loved hard. Precious memories of them and I still miss them so very much but it does get a little better with time, especially knowing I will see them again in heaven 🙏❤️👍 that meal looked amazing, so good ! Y’all take care and I’m looking forward to the next videos as always ❤
Hey Courtney! Happy Friday! I would paint the faux brick white and yes on the wood for the barn doors to be stained. Would match and compliment the entryway. Xoxo ❤😊❤
It's ok to get upset Courtney, your grandparents were very important to you. As time goes by you'll find yourself smiling as you remember all the happiness you shared with them. Please don't be afraid to cry on camera, change is the hardest thing to come to terms with. I think the door looks amazing painted black, and a stained panel of wood would look gorgeous, sorry Kyle 😂. Your two little treasures definitely melt hearts, they are truly adorable. Look forward to seeing more of your home transformation. Sending much love to you all 💞
Wow Courtney fantastic once again a job well done your home is looking so beautiful you have a Talent 4 home making paint the columns black it will go with all the black you are adding into your home it all looks so beautiful and moonpie and moonpie you are on the wall well done precious you are so precious moonpie and little princesses you are precious and so sweet.....GOD bless you all love from a granny ....all the way in South Africa..... GOD bless you guys.....WELL DONE COURTNEY AND KYLE.....❤
Such a good video! Those girls were to cute the way they whipped their heads around like, you talking bout us LOL! Sorry to hear you are going through a rough patch, I hope it gets easier for you and you will be able to smile when you think of them. You are right about the Holiday season keeping you busy, it’s always the down time or regular tasks that gives us time to think! Don’t be hard on yourself, there is no limit to grieving the loss of someone so special or missing the routine you had with them. Thank you for all you do to put a video up for us, I can’t imagine it’s always rainbows and sunshine! Take care💙❤️🖤
Courtney I understand how you feel it rough. I think you should do your living room like you did your kitchen it will match. I think it would look great. I am eating homemade vegetable soup for supper tonight.
@@HomeSweepHome I put potatoes, chopped onion, carrots, green beans, tomato ( my mother-in-law cans tomatoes and green beans), plain macaroni, corn she cut up and put into freezer, made cornbread. I don’t like peas I add hamburger meat in it sometimes. It is really good I send you hugs and the door looks great
Courtney and Kyle the living room looks nice as it is. Later if you do change it you will then. The sadness of lossing someone you just have good days and some sad one's at least I do. You just learn to stay positive because they want us to have a good life without them. 🙏 I love the barn door painted black. Now I am going to paint mine. Thank you for all your ideas. The girls will love the pool this summer. When I bought my house that was the first thing I bought. My father and my uncle put it up for me. I had 3 little children and I was a single mother. I had a alarm so yes the doors let me know if one opened. My dad put child locks on the top part of my doors so if I was in the shower they couldn't get out to the pool. I had a large deck my dad built that also so it was child proof. The pool was the best thing I bought, my children used it for many years (20) and are very good swimmers. I liked it because I don't know how to swim. I was always to afraid to learn. But I still got in to cool off. You will love it. A sand filter is the best. Dinner looked yummy! I look forward to all your videos. Have a great weekend! 🙏♥️
You're absolutely right about the good and sad days, but the positivity is so important. I'm so happy you have so many wonderful memories with your kids at the pool. 💖
Happy FriYayyyyy Courtney, Kyle, baby ghurls, And Home Sweep Home Family! I declare & decree We ALL have a Blessed FriYayyyy, And Blessed weekend❤😊❤ Girl, it's okay. Life happens, And you are such a great wife, Mom, and homemaker. You clean and cook all the time. Do not beat yourself up. You and Kyle are doing great things as a young couple to me! Now, I will finish watching what you are up to today!😊
Bless your heart I pray you will feel the peace and comfort from God.❤. I have been using the Olay white strawberry 🍓 body wash for I mean I’m saying years it’s my favorite if I can’t find it I have to order it because I just love the way it smells and it makes your skin so soft. I am a 68 year-old woman and back when I started using the Olay I never look back. I don’t have dry skin at all and I’m a thyroid patient on top of that so it’s amazing and the peach in it smells good too. I too pre-sauté my meat. It always makes it so much better sautéing is the key to cooking.😊. Your baby girls were so adorable when you were talking about them and they turned around quickly and looked at you melts the heart right? The pictures that you are using are adorable. God bless sweet family and I pray you guys have a beautiful weekend…….🍃♥️🍃
So true. You never get over the loss or grief, you just learn how to live with it. Sending you hugs. It’s ok to cry. Grief just hits you at anytime. ❤❤❤
I like the brick I think doing the built in with a color or brick like the columns will definitely give you the look. I personally like a plan look for a little bit until my gets settled. Life is hard but it is exactly what we make it. Love your channel and content.
Happy Friday guys. Y’all worked hard today! That chicken and pasta look so good! My children are 14 months apart and it was hard when he was a toddler and her a baby but even though they are boy and girl they are still really good friends. I pray y’all have a great weekend!!
I think you should leave the brick. Sookie and Sissy are so precious. I eat cantaloupe as is, it is so sweet. The barn doors are beautiful painted black! Love the pictures so much!!
Definetly salt on cantaloupe. Try setting bacon with it. Yummm I'm so proud of you for recognizing your depression coming on and choosing not to give in to it. That's healing and that's a great thing. You don't want to ever forget the love your grandparents gave you. Keep them alive in your home and hesrt. I love the brick in the living room like it is. You and Kyle will have to do what you like. Spread all your remodel projects out so you'll have content for a long time. Also, this is like your grandpaw talking to you, put every extra dollar you can every month on the principal of your house payment. We paid our house off five years early just putting alittle extra on it every month. If I only had $20 I put that on it. Now I'm thru. I love your precious family. I feel like I know you all and just wanna help anyway I can.
Grandpa had told us the same thing about paying on the principal I definitely need to start that thank you so much for your kind words I really appreciate it 😊🫶

OMG, that chicken pasta supper had me drooling! I copied the recipe out and I have to try it soon! I don't have a crock pot, but we do have an Instant Pot; I'm sure it'll work, it should just cook faster in there. It looks like perfect winter comfort food!! 😋😋😋
It definitely is! I think it would work perfectly in an Instant Pot!
@@HomeSweepHome I think so, too! I'll have to get the ingredients on one of my next shopping trips! Thanks for sharing it! 😃
I think your living room brick looks really good the way it is
I agree I left it 😊
Thank you, I will try that because I was looking in the pancake mix isle. Your so sweet. ❤️
Your so welcome 🤗
Great cleaning motivation 👌 👏 ❤! Have a great weekend! 😅
Thank you! I hope you have a great one too!😊
Hey Courtney, I find grief comes in waves. Sending hugs. We put salt on our cantelope. 😊
You’re so right about the waves, thanks friend 🙏
I like the brick just like it is. I think it looks nice.
I agree I’ll be leaving it!
LOL I laughed out loud literally when you said “they are so cute together” and they both turned at the same time. So cute.
I know it was kinda creepy lol 😂
Especially sissy she literally gave me the side eye 😂
@@HomeSweepHome IKR!!! I was dying. They looked at you like “excuse me.” 😂😂
Courtney,
In my opinion just leaving the brick as is. I think it looks just fine.
Your dinner looks great I’ll have to try it for sure.
How’s the dishwasher working.
We also have an above ground pool. Once you get it vacuum and clean in the summer it’s really easy to keep up. Just get a box of the chlorine tabs and a (we have) a floating ducky for the tabs.
Loosing a close family member is hard but believe me it does get easier. And I whole hearty believe your grandma and pa are in your dream for a reason. Telling you their ok and so are you!!!!
Thank you so much for all the advice I really appreciate it!! And the dishwasher is working amazing thank goodness lol 😆
I like the brick 😊 Stay strong and positive, Your heavenly Angels are watching over you! You home is looking so good 👍
I appreciate that! 💕
I like the brick it gives the room texture
Its okay to cry, dont keep those emotions in. It hasnt been that long ago since they went to Heaven so you're still greiving, and theres no time limit on grief.
Great video as always❤
Teach those sweet baby girls to swim this summer and maybe put a alarm on a gate that goes to the pool when you build your deck, if that makes sense and I hope Im not sounding bossy, I dont mean to sound like that ❤
I use to love cantaloupe until my second pregnancy 22 years ago and to this day it makes me gag LOL. Have a great weekend 🩷
You are so sweet, thank you for your kind words ❤️😊
How does Kyle get pictures leveled perfect every time y’all are so blessed…
Girl I have no clue it blows my mind 😂
Girl- cleaning your messy house?? Your house is so CLEAN all the time, haha, love you!
I couldn’t live in a extremely messy house my anxiety would do backflips lol 😂
@@HomeSweepHome Same here, but you are on a special level🤣😍
@ 😂😂😂😂
LOVE Her cute glasses!! I want😂. Love the black doors..yes take down the white board and put up a strained one. ❤ the chicken dinner look sooo good.. I'm going to mek it one night for dinner.. I put salt on my cantaloupe..yummy ❤
She does look super cute in them! 😊
Hi Courtney 👋 great video and I love the brick,but it is your call in the end and whatever you decide will be great 👍 ❤❤ beautiful pictures. It might be the only way we can see moonpie 😆 Lol...take care and see you soon 😊 ❤❤
Thanks girl, I appreciate that! 😊🫶 I decided to leave the brick as is!! And I know her lazy butt doesn’t stroll through the videos anymore like when she was a kitten. Since we got her fixed it seems like she sleeps all the time and has about two spurts throughout the day if we are lucky lol 😂
Leave the bricks! Gives character!
I think so too!
My oldest two are 15months apart and they always played so well together and took care of each other! It is precious to watch. Love the black on the Barn door! I like the brick columns on the built in! I would leave it til you have a perfect plan in place. They look great. What ever happened to your big cow(steer) picture? Loved it over your couch. You are so blessed to have had such a wonderful relationship with your grandparents and I am sure they are so proud of you and are watching over you from heaven.🙏
You’re right about the brick columns! We will be leaving them as is and we had laid it down on the floor for a little bit one day when I was putting up Christmas decor and Moonpie tore it with her claws it was like a canvas she had her zoomies and went right over it 🤦♀️ BUT I did find one pretty identical from hobby lobby today that will be going over the couch I’m excited 😊
Hard working mama!
🥰🥰🥰
I love it when loved ones visit me in my dreams. I feel so much comfort to see them and when you get to hug them is so special but that’s just me cause I know they haven’t left me
I agree I love those dreams too ❤️but then I get a little sad when I wake up and realize it was a dream 🙁
Hey Girl that air stone is pricey for sure. You can come up with a cheaper option I'm sure of it. I'd do the beam first too! Love seeing your babies play together so sweet!
Yes, I can’t wait to do the beams! They're definitely on the list. 😁
Always paying attention lol so adorable still rocking the glasses. Awesome video as always❤
She loves her glasses lol. 🥰
Hey sweet Courtney, Kyle, littles and Moonpie. Grief is natural. There will be days when it hits you out of nowhere, or with a saying, or song, etc. just remember they are with you and your family and how proud you have and continue to make them. Hugs..Those littles are the sweetest! They will remember how you both work hard, bc they already try to help! Love your door that color. Be proud bc we are and we care about you all. Have a blessed weekend.
Thank you so much that means a lot and I hope you have a great weekend 😊🫶
Love your videos and all your up coming plans. As for your pool just make sure you have a sand filter because the ones that come with those requires too much work and don't keep pool clean. Up keep on them is not that bad as long as you don't run into any issues with your water. We have had one for almost 10 years now and we love it. I hope you all love it, it's a nice way to relax and have family fun.
Thanks for the tips! I can use all the advice cause we have no idea what we are doing when it comes to a pool lol now give me a paint brush and that’s a different story 😂
@HomeSweepHome lol I'd rather have the pool than paint hence is why my house updates are not completed. Smh
Sweet girl, don’t apologize for feeling your grief. Grief is an extension of your love. Grief doesn’t end because love doesn’t. You do learn to live without them physically but emotionally it is different. Give yourself time. I’m excited for all the new changes you have in store for your home. I enjoy hearing you talk about it and your excitement. I’m really proud of how you are working so hard with your mental health also. Your smile is beautiful. Remember one step at a time. You are a beautiful person, a wonderful wife, and an awesome Mommy. Remind yourself of these things. ❤❤❤
It's so kind of you to say, I really appreciate it. ❤️
Hi Courtney enjoyed your video it's getting late been out shopping all day just getting a chance to look at your video. The girls so cute playing together. Your chicken recipe looks so good . Yall have a great weekend. These pictures so good . ❤
Thank you so much, I’m so glad you enjoyed it! 😊
So funny that Sookie is still wearing those glasses.
I knowwww lol 😂
There are floating pool alarms. They are supposed to work great and an awesome back up system. Not very expensive. Those girls are beautiful. Getting so big. They do look like twins. Little one catching up quickly to her big sister. I loved your last place but this one is even more amazing. Thanks for all the hard work and love you put in all your videos. So appreciative. ❤❤❤❤❤
I will have to look into those alarms! Thanks for the tip friend! 😊🫶
Your babies are just precious. You are just such a breath of fresh air with your excitement for your thoughts on makeovers. Looking forward to 2025 and your home renovations.
You are so sweet, thank you! 🥰
I had a pool alarm on my pool and it was a very nice reassurance! But please think about some swimming lessons for both those sweet girls! They offer them at most city rec centers or YMCA!
I completely agree that’s a good idea thank you!
I have the same crockpot. I love it.
It’s definitely a good one!
@ and my pot came with a nice bag to store it in.
Hey girl heyyy! Another late watch for me lol just got back from a huge Sam’s haul. Love when it’s all done and put away but hate doing it not gonna lie. 😂 hope you and the fam are doing good today! ❤
Hey girl hayyyy! Girl same!! 😩😂 I know exactly what you mean lol 😆
Hey girl! The barn door looks great! ( you know I love black🤣) you might as well do all of them😆
Dinner looked so yummy!
Sorry you’re feeling down about your grandma and grandpa 💔
It just hits ya out of nowhere
Hugs❤️❤️
You're so sweet, thank you for the hugs!❤️
Hi Courtney and family it’s nice that you show your everyday life as it is sometimes we can’t get to do all that we want and it’s ok. As for your grief don’t apologize it’s a process which I myself am going through just like you some days are better than others 😊 the doors look great and as for the bricks in the living room, I like them as they are you did a really good job on them.
I'm so glad you understand, thank you for your kind words! ❤️
The doors look amazing painted black. You make painting look so easy I cannot stand painting I let my grown kids do it for me. The girls will always be best friends. Hope you have a great weekend. ❤
Thank you! They are the best of friends, I am so lucky! 🥰
I like your music choices!
Thank you! 😊
Good Afternoon Courtney, You're girls are so precious and beautiful. The background of the trees are beautiful when you are talking. Have a blessed day.
Thank you so much 🤗
I eat salt on my cantaloupe but going to try pepper love your videos
Watching the girls play is so precious💕 I see she has her glasses on like mommy cute ❤ it can't wait to see the living room video and the video for outdoor decorated.
They're my little shadow for sure lol! 😂
Courtney your pictures of the kids and moon pie and you guys are so cute love your recipe another great vlog from Canada 🇨🇦
Thank you so much! ❤️
Oh my gosh that recipe looks great. I’m going to have to try it. I have everything except that southwest sauce. Gotta go get some things from the store tomorrow anyway that I couldn’t get at Sam’s so I’ll put that on the list. Thanks for sharing that!
I know, that sauce is my favorite for that recipe. 😋
@ it looks fantastic and I know my fam will enjoy it too.
Basically what I said was like most people had said about grief. You will have periods in your life when it hits you like you just lost your loved one/s, and it can knock you down. But you will get back up again, and carry on, cause you have to, it's life, don't feel guilty for having those bad moments. We all have them, it's part of being human ❤. Also I commented on your "magic hands" lol. I was amazed at how you painted down the sides of the doors with black paint right up against a white wall like it was nothing, without smudging 😮. I also commented on how yummy your dinner looked. I told you I have the same barrel of flowers 😂. I told you I bought a different vacuum than yours. I paid $181 for it ( love it ), then yesterday went on Amazon and saw it was on sale for a limited time fir $125 😮. I called them up, hubby was laughing saying " They're not gonna give you anything", I said "Watch me". They're refunding me the difference, so ner ner to him 😂. Looking forward to future upcoming projects 😁. Love you guys ❤❤❤❤❤. Is Mr. Clean your new go to spray cleaner now? 😊
Hey! Idk why TH-cam does that to peoples comments I know that has to be so frustrating!! That’s so funny about the vacuum what did he say when you got a refund on the difference? lol and I’ve really been liking the clean freak cleaner lately 😊🫶
@HomeSweepHome He laughed, and said, good for you, I knew you were determined, lol.
It's Sunday now, and we're in the middle of a snowstorm. I took some winter decs down, and put Valentines decs in their place, I'll put them back when Valentines is over.
Relaxing now and staying warm and snuggly 😂❤.
Hi Courtney and family. I am so sorry about your grandma and grandpa. They will be with you always. Grief is nothing but LOVE. The harder the grief the bigger the love. I know because my only child passed two years ago. I still cannot talk about. SHE WAS MY WORLD. I love the door black. You made me hungry while cooking. It looked delicious. Your girls are so precious! Have a great weekend.♥️
I’m so sorry I couldn’t even imagine that type of loss I’m sending love your way 🫶🫶
Good afternoon Courtney and Kyle and girls and thank you for sharing your beautiful home ❤ beautiful pictures
Good afternoon & Thank you so much! 🤗
Great video!!
Thank you so much! 😊
Just love you sweetheart! You bring brightness to my day. ❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much that means a lot 😊
You just made me want to get up and clean my kitchen. For reals. That look your babies gave you when you said ain’t they so cute. I see the older one is still wearing those pink glasses. They are so cute.
I’m so glad it motivated you and yessss she lovesss those glasses!! lol 😆
NOTHING wrong with "sitting on my tushy" "with a blanket over me"! You keep visitin' with us, Courtney.... come here to listen to us visit back! Snow is coming for you and I... spring temps. soon enough, then we'll be outside from morning till night. I know you're missing your grandparents... know that, for many of us here, you have a place in our hearts, thoughts, and prayers.
You’re so sweet, thank you so much! 🙏❤️
Me my sister are year half apart.. we are still best friends even in our 50s.. sookie is so cute wanting to look like her mama..love all the updates.. take care.❤
That’s so awesome! And thank you! 😊
I love the way the brick looks.
I agree ❤️
Watching the girls play was so precious 🩷 and those pictures are so beautiful!
Thank you girl! 😊 how are you doing?
@ hanging in there! Some days are easier than others! But both kids got a bath today and I managed to brush my teeth! lol 😂
@ lol that’s too funny I remember those days lol I do miss those newborn scrunchies though where the scrunch up into a little ball when you pick them up 🥰
My heart goes out to you, losing a loved one is never easy and you will always have those moments of sweet memories will come to mind. On another note, I love how you did the entrance, I wish you would have done both sides because when you open the front door you see the bare wall first and a little larger rug int the center would look better. Maybe a cow hide rug. You do an amazing job with your family and home ❤ I like salt and pepper and I also like the cantaloupe cut up in gravy.
We definitely will be doing something to the opposite side it’s too bare with nothing on that side thank you I’m glad you enjoyed the video 😊
I can never find Cracker Barrel pancake mix in our Walmart for the life of me. Also I put salt on my cantaloupe but not pepper. By the way I love the brick look in your living room. ❤❤❤❤ your girls are so stinkin cute.
Next time you go try and look on the isle with the biscuit mix like in the same exact area as the biscuit mix that’s where I find it in my Walmart. As odd as it is it’s with the biscuit mix instead of all the other pancake mixes lol
God bless you! I am a grandmother now, but my grandparents raised me, I always lived with them on a farm! I had the best childhood. We worked hard and loved hard. Precious memories of them and I still miss them so very much but it does get a little better with time, especially knowing I will see them again in heaven 🙏❤️👍 that meal looked amazing, so good ! Y’all take care and I’m looking forward to the next videos as always ❤
Thank you so much! I’m so happy you have such wonderful memories with your grandparents 😊
The barn doors came out perfect and very pretty 😊
My two little great granddaughters are 14 months apart. My granddaughter in-law dresses them alike, also. 🤗
It’s so cute when they dress alike! 💕
Hey Courtney! Happy Friday! I would paint the faux brick white and yes on the wood for the barn doors to be stained. Would match and compliment the entryway. Xoxo ❤😊❤
I like your vision!
It's ok to get upset Courtney, your grandparents were very important to you. As time goes by you'll find yourself smiling as you remember all the happiness you shared with them. Please don't be afraid to cry on camera, change is the hardest thing to come to terms with. I think the door looks amazing painted black, and a stained panel of wood would look gorgeous, sorry Kyle 😂. Your two little treasures definitely melt hearts, they are truly adorable. Look forward to seeing more of your home transformation. Sending much love to you all 💞
I agree thank you so much for the kind words and support I truly appreciate it🫶
Salt and pepper on cantaloupe. My sister and I are Irish twins, too, born under 2 yrs apart. We are still best friends...always there for each other!❤
That’s awesome sissy and sookie are Irish twins too 😊
Mama said there will be days like this and it's ok you will have good days and bad days just keep remembering those good times
Ain’t that the truth, thanks girl 🫶
Wow Courtney fantastic once again a job well done your home is looking so beautiful you have a Talent 4 home making paint the columns black it will go with all the black you are adding into your home it all looks so beautiful and moonpie and moonpie you are on the wall well done precious you are so precious moonpie and little princesses you are precious and so sweet.....GOD bless you all love from a granny ....all the way in South Africa..... GOD bless you guys.....WELL DONE COURTNEY AND KYLE.....❤
I appreciate your kind words so much! 😊
Such a good video! Those girls were to cute the way they whipped their heads around like, you talking bout us LOL! Sorry to hear you are going through a rough patch, I hope it gets easier for you and you will be able to smile when you think of them. You are right about the Holiday season keeping you busy, it’s always the down time or regular tasks that gives us time to think! Don’t be hard on yourself, there is no limit to grieving the loss of someone so special or missing the routine you had with them. Thank you for all you do to put a video up for us, I can’t imagine it’s always rainbows and sunshine! Take care💙❤️🖤
You're so sweet, thank you so much! 🥰 and I know especially sissy she literally gave me the side eye 😂😂
Courtney I understand how you feel it rough. I think you should do your living room like you did your kitchen it will match. I think it would look great. I am eating homemade vegetable soup for supper tonight.
Ooooo that sounds so good I haven’t had vegetable soup in forever!
@@HomeSweepHome I put potatoes, chopped onion, carrots, green beans, tomato ( my mother-in-law cans tomatoes and green beans), plain macaroni, corn she cut up and put into freezer, made cornbread. I don’t like peas I add hamburger meat in it sometimes.
It is really good
I send you hugs and the door looks great
I love the pictures
@ thank you friend I hope your feeling okay
Courtney and Kyle the living room looks nice as it is. Later if you do change it you will then. The sadness of lossing someone you just have good days and some sad one's at least I do. You just learn to stay positive because they want us to have a good life without them. 🙏 I love the barn door painted black. Now I am going to paint mine. Thank you for all your ideas. The girls will love the pool this summer. When I bought my house that was the first thing I bought. My father and my uncle put it up for me. I had 3 little children and I was a single mother. I had a alarm so yes the doors let me know if one opened. My dad put child locks on the top part of my doors so if I was in the shower they couldn't get out to the pool. I had a large deck my dad built that also so it was child proof. The pool was the best thing I bought, my children used it for many years (20) and are very good swimmers. I liked it because I don't know how to swim. I was always to afraid to learn. But I still got in to cool off. You will love it. A sand filter is the best. Dinner looked yummy! I look forward to all your videos. Have a great weekend! 🙏♥️
You're absolutely right about the good and sad days, but the positivity is so important. I'm so happy you have so many wonderful memories with your kids at the pool. 💖
Girl that’s not a mess, compared to other you tubers🤗 But I love your videos❤
Thank you so much!! I appreciate the love! 😊
My grandson passed away last year and I have dreams of him. In a way it makes it feel like he’s still here❤
give it change, the girls will love it ❤
I think so too 😊
Happy FriYayyyyy Courtney, Kyle, baby ghurls, And Home Sweep Home Family!
I declare & decree We ALL have a Blessed FriYayyyy, And Blessed weekend❤😊❤
Girl, it's okay. Life happens, And you are such a great wife, Mom, and homemaker. You clean and cook all the time.
Do not beat yourself up. You and Kyle are doing great things as a young couple to me!
Now, I will finish watching what you are up to today!😊
Thank you so much! I really appreciate your kind words, it means so much to me! Happy Friday girl!! 😊🫶
@@HomeSweepHomeAwwwh, you're welcome Court Court.
I believe in edifying people and speaking the truth. You Rock Gir!❤!
Bless your heart I pray you will feel the peace and comfort from God.❤. I have been using the Olay white strawberry 🍓 body wash for I mean I’m saying years it’s my favorite if I can’t find it I have to order it because I just love the way it smells and it makes your skin so soft. I am a 68 year-old woman and back when I started using the Olay I never look back. I don’t have dry skin at all and I’m a thyroid patient on top of that so it’s amazing and the peach in it smells good too. I too pre-sauté my meat. It always makes it so much better sautéing is the key to cooking.😊. Your baby girls were so adorable when you were talking about them and they turned around quickly and looked at you melts the heart right? The pictures that you are using are adorable. God bless sweet family and I pray you guys have a beautiful weekend…….🍃♥️🍃
I agree I used it last night and it smelled so good! I hope you have an amazing weekend also 😊🫶
So true. You never get over the loss or grief, you just learn how to live with it. Sending you hugs. It’s ok to cry. Grief just hits you at anytime. ❤❤❤
I agree thank you friend 🫶
@ ❤️
I like the brick I think doing the built in with a color or brick like the columns will definitely give you the look. I personally like a plan look for a little bit until my gets settled. Life is hard but it is exactly what we make it. Love your channel and content.
I appreciate it! I love your perspective! 😊
Nice Volg!
Thank you so much! 😊
The pictures are beautiful
Those girls are just the cutest!! The way they turned and looked at you simultaneously was precious. 💙❤️🩷🩷
I know that was too funny lol 😆
Happy Friday guys. Y’all worked hard today! That chicken and pasta look so good! My children are 14 months apart and it was hard when he was a toddler and her a baby but even though they are boy and girl they are still really good friends. I pray y’all have a great weekend!!
Girl yes it was definitely tough and still is some days but so worth it watching them grow together 😊
I think you should leave the brick. Sookie and Sissy are so precious. I eat cantaloupe as is, it is so sweet. The barn doors are beautiful painted black! Love the pictures so much!!
I think I’ll leave the brick thank you friend I’m glad you enjoyed it 😊
@@HomeSweepHome I always enjoy your videos. You are the reason I keep coming back on TH-cam. ❤❤❤❤
Definetly salt on cantaloupe. Try setting bacon with it. Yummm
I'm so proud of you for recognizing your depression coming on and choosing not to give in to it. That's healing and that's a great thing. You don't want to ever forget the love your grandparents gave you. Keep them alive in your home and hesrt. I love the brick in the living room like it is. You and Kyle will have to do what you like. Spread all your remodel projects out so you'll have content for a long time. Also, this is like your grandpaw talking to you, put every extra dollar you can every month on the principal of your house payment. We paid our house off five years early just putting alittle extra on it every month. If I only had $20 I put that on it. Now I'm thru. I love your precious family. I feel like I know you all and just wanna help anyway I can.
Grandpa had told us the same thing about paying on the principal I definitely need to start that thank you so much for your kind words I really appreciate it 😊🫶
