    We apologize for the way the camera was picking up the light in the beginning of the video. Lighting improves around the 4 min mark.
    Thanks for watching!

    Josh, I don't know how to say this exactly! But I want you to know, you are so blessed to have your woman right next to you . When you both take on a project like this, and she is there by your side, OH my. Love watching you guys.

    Eli was so cute when she was younger. Walking around with her green 🐢 little ride toy. The boys were so excited with there loft. Great building times I thought. Boys have grown to be strong young men. Awesome guys. Enjoyed looking back at the frame build.

    Being a Master Carpenter,I have framed a few hundred houses.
    I just saw a 110 lb woman bring in a 3/4 " sheet of OSB like it was nothing....
    She's a keeper man.

    • @Iamthathillbilly
      @Iamthathillbilly 6 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Keith Tomczyk I’m a 185 pound full grown man nearly 6 ft tall and 3/4 osb if heavy if you ask me. Any woman who will even try to carry it is a keeper!!

    • @TacTechMic
      @TacTechMic 6 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    I built a 'secret' room for my daughter in the space where the roof meets the floor behind a knee wall. It was always meant to be a storage area when she was done with it, and she loved having a private space in a very open layout house. It had lights, a door and everything. I think it helped her get over the move to the country that first year. Having a space that is 'theirs' will be good for your little's.

    Hello, I am an old French man, and I am admiring of your company. I discovered by chance your channel and I devore your videos in record time, it is true that I have the time ;-)
    Your courage and your abnegation are my admiration, and I can only encourage you to continue, even if sometimes a little weariness is felt.
    At times by some of his expressions Josh looks like Matthew McConaughey ...
    If one day you come to France, I will be happy to welcome you to show you the vineyards of Cognac.
    Again thank you for the happiness you distribute to all your subscribers, continue, big kisses to all your little family.
    I'm sorry for my poor english, but google is, sometimes, my friend.
    Sinceres friends of France!

    You guys are quite the couple. Finally decided to make my first comment which is..... Very informative with a touch of charm and humor. The short
    time frame you use makes watching easy without becoming boring. Love the playful nature you express towards each other something rarely seen
    these days. Your interaction with the children is genuine and appreciated!! All in all an excellent job. I used to work in the movie and video industry
    so when I tell you "" Very good job"" it's for real. You have stumbled upon the perfect recipe for entertaining. Keep up the good work!! one last thing,
    You have me hooked guys and am looking forward to watching more.
    BTW a shout out to Trent and Allie for telling me to check out your channel! Glad they did!!! Sincerely, Me Southern AZ.

    Loved the video. The clip of your daughter pushing her little green frog or snake toy around reminded me of our log house build back in the 1980's. Once I got the floor in my kids were zooming around inside all day on their big wheels. There were some crashes (one that got my daughter a few stitches) but man did they have fun. So many years later (my son is 40 now, yikes) I get to enjoy watching you and your family as you build your dream home. All the best to you. Thanks for the fun.

Can't wait to see the end results. Luv y'all. (Josh is a energized bunny)

      remus haynes it seems that a vital part of any family that wants to go off grid/build their own house/homestead is a woman that is willing to work just as hard as their husband, it’s kinda unfortunate that it’s considered out of ordinary

    I stumbled across your channel by accident, watched and now I am hooked. Young lady, you are a grafter, very impressed with the amount of work that you do which seems to be anything and everything. You certainly have a full day every day so power to your elbows friends. Everyone is I am sure, looking forward to seeing it finished but sad if you stop making videos. Good luck Josh and the lovely Chipmonk.

    Watching you guys reminds me of when my wife and I first started out. We didn't have much money but somehow we just got er done. Whatever we didn't know how to do we learned. We couldn't afford to hire labor so we did everything. Later on in life that mindset really paid off because even when we could afford to hire it out we didn't want to. Thats how you guys are going to be too. I ain't sure but I think the kids like the loft. Pigs looked pretty happy too. 😉
