I love how he treats you! He's supportive, kind, patient and positive!
Cammie is such a sweet little fella!! I don't think his eyes could be any prettier!!
I'm about a decade older than all my siblings, so my heart strings get pulled whenever someone's kids remind me of them ❤️❤️
OMG!!! I always think the same thing. But, what about his hair and the clef in his chin. They’re a really cute family!
Y’all crack me up! “If l got to go, I want to go that way! He ADORES you!❤ l love y’all so much! I’m 65 and you have blessed me so much!❤️🙏🏻🇺🇸
Hi, Marina. My name is Jennifer. I just wanted to tell you that you can make more space in your deep freezer if you take the items out of the box because they come wrapped individually. Also, I would like to tell you that whenever you go to those type of places and shop, people don't usually notice that there are empty boxes that you can put your meat and other loose items into. Blessings to you and your family.
I enjoy Marina I got it from a friend in West Virginia she got me interested in watching Marina I think she's really good what she does thank you I live in Columbus Ohio
Sam’s Club scan and go! Best thing ever! No standing in a checkout line! Get the app, enter your info and scan each item as you pick it up, slide the checkout button, go straight to the door, show the person the QR code on phone, and boom you outta there!❤️
“Ain’t that like the devil to make everything taste so good”. That literally had me in tears. Thank you for the JOY you bring us. I appreciate a safe place to watch videos. You and your husband have such a beautiful relationship. You are truly blessed. Thank you for sharing your journey.
I’m totally in love with Cammie, beautiful child!!!! Ty Shane for you crazy antics!!!! Great finds, enjoy!!!!! You are all just smashing!!!!!!
Absolutely love the relationship between mom and dad!! The enjoyment and laughter shared is so healthy!! Best thing for children to witness!! .....doesn't mean there aren't hard times...but working together is the way!! Best parent award to the both of you!!
I just LOVE these two together! I love my husband, know he loves me, but…….I envy these two!!!
Yea dad is funny mom is pretty kids behave and life looks so happy at the fearfully created home
I AGREE TO BEST PARENTING AWARD GOES TO Merina & Shane😍😍💖💖🙏🙏
Exactly. They’re a beautiful couple 💛❤️
I'm glad you cut Cam's hair. Now we can see his beautiful face!!
When I had trouble with words my Nannie would always tell me I got my tongue wrapped around my eye teeth and I couldn’t see what I was saying. Lol I loved her so big!
I don't usually like to comment on videos, but I wanted to say how refreshing it is to watch your videos. My 8 year daughter and I watch your videos. I love how much you love Jesus. We go to a Baptist church, so it's so awesome that my daughter and I can watch and listen to some of great things you talk about. Thank you!
Shanes grocery haul was the most entertaining grocery haul I have seen. You should have him do all of your grocery hauls.
🌸🏠🎉😁🤣
My oldest, who just turned 7, is staying the night at Nana and Papo's house tonight. I feel ya on those momma strings ❤
It hurts my heart ❤️ they have so much fun though!!!!
I haven’t had a chance to watch yet but I will.
Could you please keep my family in your prayers this week? I am returning to work after 7 1/2 years at home and sending my kids to public school after homeschooling the last 4 years bc we are in bad shape financially. I know it sounds so selfish since there are way bigger problems going on in the world right now but I am really struggling. Thank you. ❤️ Love your sweet family.
Oh friend. My heart hurts for you. I am so sorry. Praying for you and your kiddos. Praying that the transition is easy on everyone ❤️ you got this, mama! I believe in you.
@@fearfullycreated thank you so much. It means the world. I know we can do this. We have to. ❤️
🙏🙏🙏
Sweetheart, Shane is a God send and the beautiful thing is you know it! This grandma loves you!❤️🥰
I enjoy watching your videos so much. I love your relationship with all the laughter with your husband. Nobody has made me laugh more then my husband and that is over 40 years of laughter. The Bible says a merry heart doeth good like a medicine. I am also a mother of five, grandmother of seven and now a great grandmother. Thank you for sharing your life with us. It is so sweet and you are so talented. You are a blessing!!!
I separate everything and portion it out with enough for each meal. I just use zip lock freezer bags and I label and date everything. We go to Sams about every 6 weeks. You will be surprised just how much you can save. Enjoy.
I like to meal prep too. It takes the stress out of cooking, Saves time and that way you can stick to the meal plan easier. I might be up all night the day I get the haul in, but cutting and freezing it up all at once saves on throwing it out if it goes too long then the savings turns into costing more.
All of those big box food chains are a rip off. It’s sad people don’t pay attention to weights and prices. 😔 Where you believe you’re saving you get gouged on other items. Amazon is so much cheaper on most bulk snack items which is what it seems she is buying.
@@thesun-N-moon8885 Oh No I didn’t think you look. Thank you for sharing that👍🏻
Had a Great time hanging out with you, Shane, and Cami. 💗
Love you guys creativity and the way you guys have fun while working together!!!
I recommend a seal a meal for your food. It keeps the frozen meat from getting freezer burned and keeps everything else fresh. It is so helpful when you buy bulk food. You can make the bags into whatever size you want. It has been very helpful for me, so I thought I would pass it along to you. I love watching your family and how you treat each other. You are a great example of a good, loving and respectful family. Thanks for sharing with us.
Thank you Merina ❤️ Three videos in one week! You are so fun!
I just can't get over the love I have for a family I never met! Y'all are amazing God bless y'all!
You could easily get another chair in your living room, and your room will still feel open and large! You're doing great, kiddo!
I commented yesterday,and this is simply a kind suggestion. Think about putting the table next to Shane's chair not in the corner. He will need to put a glass etc. down and will need that table. The floor lamp looked great on the other side of couch and that table doesn't need a lamp just simple decor. Love that you thrift!!
I thought the same thing when Merina was putting that darling side table in the corner ❤️ I found myself hollering at the screen to put it next to Shane's new chair for drinks ‼️😘😅☺️
It’s Nice To Have One On One With Each Child. Also Shane For Your Entertainment. Love Ya Girl!
Yes!!! Love our day dates with Cammy 🥰❤️
Anyone else stalking TH-cam at 6:55 for your favorite TH-camr!! Just love your channel
LISTEN 🥺 you’re making me cry happy tears I love you.
Me too!!
I just love y’all. Y’all are amazing family. I can’t get enough of your viedos. 💯💯😘😘😘😘❤️❤️❤️❤️
Love the chair! I like the idea of meal planning!
I wonder if you might like a slipcover for your sectional section? They make them for the L shaped sectionals, would hide your empty spot and make it easier to clean the couch too.
Girl, I spend way too much at Sam's. But I have good intentions to stay on the meal plan. Only I back slide a lot.
Love the way you and Shane interact with each other. You guys are great. I hope the recliner lasts a long time. Great purchase. 👍
Shane did a great commentary on the huge grocery haul. Loved every minute of it.
Cammie is so well behaved and absolutely so cute.
God bless and always remember, God is Good.
I need prayers also, there was a misunderstanding at my job and my job is in jeopardy. I cannot loose this job. I’m in tears. I’m scared. I know if prayers work it will be all y’all prayers. I’m so happy for you Merina. You deserve all you want and need. You are amazing. Thank you.
Prayers🙏
To help make more room in the deep freezer take things out of boxes. You can use large ziplock bags to keep like items together or the baskets and keep breakfast items together etc. So amazing to feel like adults!!! Happy living. God Bless and prayers for motivational you to stay on task with your meal planning for the month!! You got this!!
Cammy looks soooo happy to be hanging with y'all 😊
I love day dates with Cammy 🥰
Hi love!!!! I subbed about a month ago so I've been binge- watching your videos from the beginning!! I just adore you and your family!!❤ Thanks for letting me hang out with y'all!! God bless all of you.
MY DAY IS MADE 🥰
@@fearfullycreated you commented back!!!! My day is made too!!💞
You and your family make me happy 😃💖💖
" Tip" remove items fm boxes. Write on packaging in magic marker what each are, will save even more space in freezer !!!! Hubs does this to ours on grocery day !!!!
Merina, start the envelope for the shed! Lol
Love you guys XOXOXO 💗
I was thinking g time for her to redo that storage cubby in her bathroom. She is going to need it!!
First off i LOVED this video. You two are hilarious!!! I agree with shane. I HATE microfiber cloths because of the feeling with my hands. Im glad im not the only one. And most of all when you were laughing about the Pirate booty 😂😂😂 i was laughing with you. I love your laugh. Thanks for a great video💜💜
Same, feels like my hands are dry when they aren't.
Thank god your playing your old songs I’m loving this video
I always get so excited when I do big grocery shopping buying in bulk saves me
My Mamaw had one of those singing fish hung on her very nice dining room walls. She was such a proper lady it was one of those things that I got a lot of joy out of seeing in her home.
Shane was cracking me up at the big bag of mozzarella cheese 😂. If you find yourself not going through the bag that fast it freezes really well. I usually buy mine in bulk like that and then keep a smaller quart sized bag in my fridge that I can refill as needed. All the food looks delish! Makes me want to try a one month challenge too
Chest freezers are great to have ( you will love it !! ). Good job on the “ Big Ole 😂 “grocery haul, Shane 👍. The new chair looks so nice 🌻. Cammie looked so cute sitting in the back seat of the truck looking around at the scenery on your trip ( he’s so sweet ) 😍
Cammi is just too stinkin’ cute. He looks just let me his Dad❤️
First 4 minutes and I'm crying.. You screamed railroad tracks. My nana did that everytime we passed them. ❤ You and Shane always have the best spirit.
I wish I could just spend the day with you guys. I swear my belly would hurt so much from laughing 🥰🥰
I would LOVE that! I want in person friends so badly! 😄
Same 😩
Ditto
I remember the first time I went shopping at Costco and checked out the total made me sick!! But I just trusted the process went home and took inventory and was surprised to find out it really does and did save money! You got this guys!
Thank you for allowing us in your life . You are such a positive influence. 😊
I grew up in white pine! Such a small town but I always loved it there. I love watching you. I've not been a subscriber long, but after the first video I watched, I was hooked. You're so wholesome and loving.
Hey Merina: It is such a blessing seeing how excited you get doing beautiful things for your family. Just a tip to make more space in your freezer. Whenever possible take the food out of the boxes put it in the freezer bags and then put the box instructions in the bag with the food. Saves space and you also don't have to remember the temperature and time for each food. This saves so much space in my freezer. Hope this helps for future bulk shopping.
I also like to portion the food out too. That way your able to meal plan easier.
@@terrybazin8067 you are so right. It is just my husband and I but we still shop at Costco. By portioning out our food we don't waste any because we dont have to defrost and cook more than we need for the planned meat. Thanks for the added tip reminder.
Great video! I'm glad you were able to find a recliner and a freezer. We shop at Sam's twice a month. We really like their rotisserie chicken.
I love y'all's humor, y'all are great together! You have a beautiful family.
“You pay big and you pay lots” 😂😂 we have learned this the hard way so many times.
I love the chemistry that you and Shane have. My husband and I have been married 22 years but still act like we just got married. Costco is the same for me like Sam is for you. Lol
I went to Costco today. Went straight to the dog food , toilet paper,, diapers, wipes, laundry detergent etc... looked at the rugs and left i was so proud of myself. Only bought my list!!!!
My husband and I have been married. 50 years!!
🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳 you'll LOVE the freezer !!! I usually separate my meats & put them in freezer bags w/ different kinds of marinade 🤗 I also open the huge bags of cheese, put them in smaller freezer bags & freeze them & pull out what I need ... the freezer is so great !! When my kids were younger I froze so much bread, cheese, butter & bagel pizzas ... lol.. & that c
Actually a good price for a big family & not to mention meats is so expensive now !! Prices are crazy 🤪
This is such a helpful comment 😄😄 THANK YOU FRIEND
We did a Sam's run today.
Get you some laundry baskets, the big rectangular ones, and stack them inside each other when empty. On Sam's runs, separate them and load your purchases inside those baskets. It will cut down on trips back and forth to car. You can also use the plastic grocery bags if you have any on hand, just put them in the car and load the Sam's purchases into those.
I do both.
New subscriber here!! After watching your video I feel like I just found my new best friend!!! I've been binge watching your videos and I love everything about them. Thank you for being real, thank you for sharing your beautiful family with us and your love for the Lord and thank you for being you!!!! This is what the world needs right now ♥️
My recliner came in two pieces. The back usually slides off. Easier to move for next time! Isn't that just how it goes when you find something at the thrift store you just purchased! I tell myself, someone else that needs it will get it. Enjoyed today's video.
Made sure i checked on here right at 7! 💕 needed your sunshine today
🥺❤️ I LOVE YOU SO MUCH
Love you so much more ! Grateful for y’all! Like you don’t even know 💕
You’re a great wife and mom! Your hubby is a doll and your beautiful boy looks just like him! You’ve become my fav channel bc of your radiant and kind spirit!!
If you take the product out of the boxes you’ll have more room in your chest freezer. LOVE THIS ❤️
I’m so doing this!!! 😄
@@fearfullycreated If it’s something new to you, cut out the instructions off the box and attach. I’ve been following you forever. I always like and have never commented. But, you and your family are sooo relatable I feel we are good friends🤣. You are truly love on two feet ❤️
can't wait to see the new furniture!
Shane absolutely loves it 😄❤️it is super comfy!!!!
we want new livingroom as well but right now ours is good. we got the l shaped kasan from biglots and it's still going after 2 yrs. It's just too dark for my liking and when we can afford new it will be a bit lighter. We will be giving our old to my sil and brother who live in Harrison near Chattanooga..
Year before last my daughter went on her first away camp with the school. I didn’t know what to do with myself for 4 days.
I love my Costco!!! We buy bulk meat there. But you can never leave without spending $300!
That initial money loss is a hard hit lol
When we go to Costco we buy the chicken thighs and legs. We also buy the big pork loins, then slice them up into chops and roasts. Saves a ton of money!!!
My daughter just bought a half of steer from a local farmer and shared with us, figured out it cost us $3.35 a pound.
You and Shane show the Love you have for each other and your children!! The chair looks so comfortable!! Love you guys ❤️❤️
You guys are the real MVPs,thanks for taking us along🥰
Such a long and exhausting day as a hospice nurse 😔 This video is definitely what I needed to distract myself and have joy. Thank you for what you do, you definitely bring people happiness.
Thank you for all you do for your patients and their families ❤️
Glad I got to check in early with ya!! You would be proud of me because I got some long needed cleaning projects done today. I channeled my inner Merina!!
OH HECK YES 😄❤️ see!!! You got this 🥰
@@fearfullycreated qqq1
You could put that table you rehabbed in between the recliner and the chair to hide the divide.
This was exciting, I was so nervous watching that chair cover blowing in the wind as you drove. The chair looks good in the living room, you have a gift for decorating. The Sam’s Club haul was impressive. The freezer seems perfect for what you need. The meal planning is a good idea, dividing the meats into meal size portions will make it work. Don’t forget to label each package with the date, contents, and intended use. HAPPY NEW YEAR! 🎉🎉🎉
Merina, you might be able to cover the black area on the remaining couch with some microfiber* fabric so you don't have to drape the blanket.
(Edit: *presuming its a microfiber couch.)
My Dad's work boots ate through the fabric on the foot area of his recliner. I used fabric and a staple gun to cover it up. Actually, might want to bring that up with Shane. Don't wear shoes, or protect that area from the beginning?
was thinking same about sofa... manufacturer might have a kit or replacement fabric made for a cushion which could be modified for the arm...
What we do is use meat in freezer/fridge, as that empties we transfer the next week's meat from big freezer to fridge freezer, this way things do get rotated and no freezer burned meat. You should invest in a foid saver machine. They do come in handy too,! GREAT job on the food haul demo Shane!!! Love to the whole family
I love my food vacuum sealer. I keep it, the roll of bags, and a sharpie marker in same drawer.
Hey guys! I love yall! 💕 Every time I watch your channel I find myself giggling at your jokes and smiling. Yall are fun and hilarious.😁 Makes my day brighter.
Lol I have also been saying everything is a "bop" "bangin'" and "lit" 😂😂😂 My son just started middle school this year and told me I'm cringy
Just blown away by what you've done with the food. Wonderful idea. And love the furniture you picked out. What a beautiful house you have.👍🥰
OMGoodness Marina, I m so proud of you. That is exactly what I used to do and I saved so much money we took vacations on the extra money. Tell camomile what a trooper for hanging with you guys on a long day.
Although if I were you I would have bought the other recliner at the thrift store it wouldn’t of taken up much room.
Loved hanging out with you on this journey
Even when you guys are not getting along that well, the two of you are adorable!! Yay! You got your freezer! 😊
I consider myself blessed in so many ways, but until today I have never been so so so jealous of someone!! I honestly thought they were a myth, I was shocked 😲 and gutted at the same time. Like seriously, that cinnabon was unreal!!! I was drooling 🤤 😋 we don't have things like that in the uk.
Have the kids be careful with the recliner around the pups , animals get hurt by recliner chairs and couches all the time
Merina, you will love the freezer, it’s great when Turkeys, Chicken and burger is on sale. You should make one of those trays that many make for their range cover but for the freezer, matching your wall …. Would look cool.
Had one of your videos show up in my recommendations two weeks ago. I've now binge watched a ton, and you are a breath of fresh air. Stay you, and love on that wonderful family!
LISTEN ❤️ this makes my whole night!!!! Thank you for being here, friend
Shane was so funny doing the different poses in the recliner
Oh girl. I had to pause to comment right now. I am laughing so hard at you and being an “adult” getting i Sams Club card!!! I hear ya totally and can relate too. I also go in for a few thin the and come out with enough to feed a community hahaha. You totally made my Saturday night!!! Love you
I grew up shopping at Sam’s Club with my parents every few months. We drove 3.5 hours from Kansas to Colorado to get away and my mom would pack a cooler and used the boxes they have when you exit the store. I would highly suggest to shop their sale ads that come out every couple of months. Over the years, it seems like we mostly get most of our non-food items from there. I love their rotisserie chicken to make soup and freeze the rest.
Can you online order from Sam's club or is it strictly in store? We are 350 miles from the nearest Sam's.
@@terrybazin8067 we have a plus membership and it offers free shipping! I believe the regular membership may have shipping charges but they offer soooo much to be shipped!!!
Hi marina can I give you a tip, make list of what in freezer, stick it somewhere you can see it and as you use it cross off list. When I had all my family at home I had chest freezer and until I did this food got lost in the bottom and sometime it had to be thrown out. Hope you don’t mind me suggesting this. Good luck. Xxx
You need a food saver sealer. Just jot on the bag before you put in the sealer. Amazing how you can forget what you have. I do this every time I go to sams. No freezer burn with it either. I even divide out the deli meat and cheese and freeze it.
I’m glad you added the freezer set
Up I wondered if you were going to get it all in there. I have a feeling your going to love that so much you’ll either get the bigger one or a second one. I think it’s a smart move to bulk buy for your family. I’m trying to eat more at home. It’s so easy to eat out and not have the cooking or mess afterwards to deal with. But I know me and my family need to eat at home more. Loved the video. Too bad y’all didn’t go to the thrift store first, that was kinda cool they had one there.
Hey Merina, I hope you never get tired of hearing how AWESOME you are, you seem so real, so genuine, so encouraging… I first found you on your fall decorate 2021 and you’ve never waivered. That says a lot about you… Shane makes me laugh every time. You are a BLESSED family 🥰
Watching from Michigan…Kim😊
We're in the Keweenaw Peninsula of Michigan. Are you above or below the bridge. Hey neighbor!
I'm in mid Michigan...love watching Merina and Shane.
@@cathydiamond6573 I do too! I grew up in Wayne County but am way up here now. Family in West Branch, Clare, Beaverton. Wish I was there.
@@terrybazin8067 I'm in Beaverton. Moved here from Texas. I miss it though. Snow and ice is dangerous.
@@cathydiamond6573 sister in law in Beaverton. Over by the lake on North Branch
Moved from Gladwin. I love it diwn there. We have already had 217" of snow this year so far, here. Too much
The recliner is rly nice but you guys are a big fam, in my opinion a sectional (doesn’t have to be a huge one) is the best option so you can all sit to watch tv and cuddle…lovely video ❤️
Awwww what a fun video. You and Shane together are such fun. Thanks for taking us along on you r shopping trips. I enjoyed it. One on one with each child is always so important. Thanks for sharing. Take care. God Bless.

Give yourself 3 months doing the monthly meal shopping. That's a huge shift in how you shop, store and cook, give yourself grace for the adjustment. Buying in bulk should help cut down the rising food costs too. I've been making my own chicken nuggets, pulled pork (made it in the oven too!) & London broil. I think a lot of us are trying to find ways to still afford to eat the things we're use to eating without going broke. No more eating out for us. I love your shop local efforts, we do the same thing. As for those energy drinks, my fiance stopped drinking those things, did nothing else different and lost 37lbs in like 3 months. He stopped because the "crash" from drinking them was giving him such major headaches so the 37lbs was a bonus. It's tough to kick a bad habit, I can't fully give up my chocolate 😫.
Love this! I admire how smart you are on your meal planning- that’s one thing I just can’t get a hold of 😂 And I understand how Shane feels about microfiber towels, they give me the heebie jeebies!
Looked nice before now it's even better that chair is nice the freezer is nice
Tip - Take things out of the boxes to allow for more items to fit in the freezer.
Marina: Post It Notes! I need these....I neeeeeed these...I don't know for what but I need them! Shane: PUMP . THE . BREAKS! Not gonna lie I was like ohhhh I need those too for something! 😂
I was late, but I'll have go back and watch the very beginning!!❤ Cammy s Eyes are SO Pretty 😍 💖 YOU & SHANE ARE A HOOT!!❤🤣🤣 / Loved your excitement Merina over Sam's club, oh & love the recliner!! I need one so bad I live in mine, sitting, legs up messed up body, so my bed as well. 😴😢😢 Great Shopping and cute freezer, PRAY IT ALL WORKS OUT!!!❤ Shane, #TatorNation #Merina, love you all and SO does Jesus😍😍💖💖🙏🙏
The fish singing hilarious lol 😆🤣
I'm the same way with going somewhere cause i want to be early and take my time so i dont have to rush and i want to be on time
He said you need to pump the breaks lol and his eyes got so big lol 🤣😆
It's so ironic they you sang sir Rods song! Just was given tickets for my birthday to his concert! Sir Rod is 77 yrs old and I so admire him!
Great video gal! Did you know Lowe's will price match and give you an extra 10% off the price! God bless y'all! ❣️ Excited for your new furniture y'all deserve it!
SAY WHAT?!!!! I didn’t know this!!!!
Hello, my favorite TH-camr family. You are such a good mama
“Ain’t that like the devil to make something taste so good”. Omg your funny southern comments crack me up. My husband is from the south and he’s also so witty with southern phrases. Cracks me up. Example: I’m fixing to do this. Also- my ol lady (I use to hate that ages 20-25 but now I’m 30 it’s precious and shows his southern roots)
