I am a retired cabinet builder, new home construction superintendent and remodeler and here to tell you both " Outstanding" job well done and while you sit there at night, with the sore foot and occasional back pain the thoughts of what you saved should make things feel a whole lot better! Congratulations to both of you.
Thank you for your kind words and support my friend. 😊
High marks coming from a man with your impressive background
The near fall on that ladder. The look on his face when he got on the ground and headed rite to the outhouse to do some wiping. Close call. Good show kids. I've watched them all. Keep it coming your great but stay safe. Maybe keep some t.p. in jays pockets lol. P.s. I've done it my self.
Lol. Funny stuff. It happens to the best of us, ha ha
Wow, just wow!! Such a beautiful home you have built. It's perfect. You guys are extremely creative. All I can say is what a masterpiece!!! Now, to get your well dug and working. That'll complete it. Beautiful guys!! I hope you guys live there for years to come.
Thank you so much!
My goodness, time flies! Look how far you've come. And you didn't kill each other! Bravo!
Ha......time does fly for sure......and totally agree about not killing each other, lol. Best wishes
Well it’s been a week since my ankle surgery and you’ve kept me occupied with being stuck at home living and sleeping in a chair cos I cant use the stairs for next 6 weeks. I’ve watched every single episode and read 98% of the comments, couldn’t be bothered with the rude ones. I wonder why if you can’t say anything nice, you bother to leave a crap comment. Just jog( wish I could!!) on and leave the rest of us to enjoy the cabin building. Ive loved seeing the journey and this quick episode, never knew him but miss Ben!😔 See if you could get the lady to paint/add him in your Christmas pressie I think it would be fitting. Now I’ve got to wait for weekly updates! But carry on your journey and thank you both. Been a life saver this week. 🤗x Helena English ( north Devon) but living in Northern Ireland.
So Glad we could help in a simple way....A little entertainment while you are on the Mend. So glad you are here with us now and we hope you have a speedy recovery my friend. Be safe, well, and best wishes......oh and THANK YOU for all the support
Best couple off gridders out there!
Woot Woot Mark....Best wishes

I joined your channel just as you were starting the bedroom. It was beautiful to see it from the starting point.
Glad you enjoyed it. Is a bit crazy to look back on ourselves, lol
I watch a lot of cabin build videos, and particularly like this one. It shows the steps without feeling like lessons that drag on. I see what you’re doing. Imma keep this video in my back pocket. Beautiful place.
Thanks Emily......Jen and I are definitely not professionals, so getting instructional in our videos is not our thing, lol. Thanks for watching. Hope check out some of our other vids and enjoy them too. Best wishes
Wow awesome job on the video from the home lumber mill to the fresh maple syrup! Great to be so blessed thanks

Congratulations! You both did a great job! You should be very proud. Here's to many years of enjoyment. I'll bet its a great feeling of satisfaction when you sit back and look at it!
Very much so.....thank you. 😊
I like the old tractor and kawaski and the snowmobile, sawmill, and the maple syrup, like it all really, but that stuff stood out.
So glad you enjoyed it 😊 thank you for watching
May the Lord bless and protect you and Jen
God bless my friend
Another great trip with you!!!
Thank you!!!!
Thanks Edward. 😁
My respect folks.....
A beautifull cabin
Thanks Jane
A fantastic time lapse. You have accomplished so much together and its been fun to watch the interaction. All the best for 2023.
Woot Woot Rob......Best wishes my friend
You two do good work and make it look easy. Your a great team.
Wow, thank you
Wow, Jay & Jen you worked hard and built a beautiful home. Seeing the camping area w the green grass was beautiful. We had a sled like that we pulled behind our snowmobiles. Watching this makes me miss Michigan so much. I wish my bones could handle the winters. I just may have to buy some land again. Michigan April through November and 5 months warmer. Lol. Great job.
It is beautiful here.....the winters are rough though like you said. We don't blame you for enjoying the warmth out there. Lol
How the time flies. I hope that I can watch you for a very long time. Best wishes❤️🙏
Thanks Nicole......we hope so too. 😊👍
Awesome job you 2 feel really proud of what you have achieved.
Thank you Jacque....lots of love
Loved the video ! So much accomplished ! Relax and enjoy it !
Yes! Thank you!
Hi Guys ... it is so wonderful to see you and watch the progression of your house! I hope you are staying safe and warm in this crazy Michigan Weather!!
Be safe ... ❤ from your friend in VA!
Yes we are....laying low for a couple weeks, then back on track. Best wishes my friend
That half hour is well spent good watch that must of taken hours to edit. Possibly days is more like it. I liked how it shows how motivated you kids are to having that cabin in the woods where a person could run naked through the trees was it not for nats, deerflys, horseflys, misquotes, and me peeking through the trees. I am loving these and look forwards to the garage build getting finished. A small mother in law apartment in a loft that is too small to stand or turn around/lol. They must know by now we only put up with them incase of a large inheritance!!! I kids you on that one... we do love them, only they can be a nuisance for certain. My mother in law steps in our small cabin, I had just got out of the shower and wanted coffee so she sees me in the birthday suit... she smiles and says; I see why she married you!! I think she was just trying to make me feel good but it worked for me. Wishing a great year 23 as its the only 23 we will ever see for sure, if I live as long as some bible characters, I sure would of stayed on a diet as lugging this pot belly around for more than say eighty years...... wow..... just thinking when I was a kid and life expectancy was early sixties.. as most men died after their mid forties and those who made their fifties were considered on their way out. Love ya's
Keep hanging in there my friend.....you have more stories and knowledge to share. I tell Jen I'm not waiting for retirement......for I may never see it, lol
Wow ! Incredible what you have acomplished, all by yourselve J & J ! It’s seems like yesterday ! Thank you to have invited us in your beautiful adventure and can’t way to see your next projects ! Best wishes for the New coming year !
Our pleasure! Thank you my friend
You both have come so far, it’s been an incredible journey. You worked so hard on your dreams and goals. Everything you both did was with love for each other and the results amazing. Love all your videos. God bless you both
Blessing my friend......thank you for being here with us
A lot of hard work when into that cabin And it shows it turned out beautiful where does time go by congratulations enjoy your property as I would come rain snow sleet hail and sunshine❤
Thank you so much Kim......Best wishes my friend 😊 ❤️
I totally remember finding you guys back in 2020 when I started working on my log cabin project during covid with my two sons! Seems like yesterday. Your progress has been amazing. Hope you two have a fantastic 2023!
So glad you did my friend......hope life is treating you grand.
Great job. Love the videos.
Keep up the Great work!
Thanks, will do!
Crazy kids, so young, so full of hope and enthusiasm. And then the ladders 🪜 🙄 happened on the scene to be Jay's nemesis...
Lol, life is good buddy. Ladders and all. Lol
❤ You two are amazing!❤
Bu tarz işleri karı koca olarak yapmanız en büyük zenginlik ve sevgi ayrıca gelecegi inşa etmek. Seviliyorsunuz ❤ başarılar 👏🥰
Thank you so much.....hope you join us for the rest of the build. Best wishes
I always love the Timelapse’s. It’s been a fun ride and even though we are strangers I consider you and jen friends.
I'm proud of that Title my friend......It's always a pleasure.. Feeling is mutual
Time flies when you are having fun! I enjoyed watching the trip down memory lane with you both! Thanks for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed it my friend
Ihr macht es wirklich sehr gut. Auch wenn ich kein Englisch kann, ich verstehe euch!
Love it....thank you for being here with us. 😊
Great video. You have put an incredible amount of work building your cabin. It’s looking very nice.
Thanks Larry....appreciate it
I just love watching your guises videos and I can’t wait for future videos. Happy new year.
Love it Scott....Thank you. Best wishes
Thank you for the memories boy do I remember most of it. The main one was tying off on the metal roofing. You both have spent thousands of hours building your beautiful cabin on the hill. I think the covered porch to me was the most worrisome part and sometimes I closed my eye's LOL I am so proud of both of you and what you have accomplished over the years. God IS Blessing you both all the way for sure. Thank you for this Five Year Recap it was AWESOME.
It has been quite the journey Sandra.....thanks for all the support along the way.it means the world to us

Beautiful home decoration standard work🏡👌👍
That ridge beam install with the Tee Post was smart! I have always built stuff by myself with no help so I am always coming up with stuff like that.
Right on....We make it work right? lol thanks for watching
@@OffgridwithJayandJen you got that right we figure out a way!
Lovely to reminisce. We miss Benjamin but Timber and Scout are good additions. Greetings and best wishes from the UK.
Greetings Mike.....old man Benjamin is missed for sure. Love the new dorks....but they are trouble, lol. Best wishes my friend
What a awesome home guys, love to see couples working together building their dreams thank you
Thanks my friend
Hello good movie, we see the home when you working 👍. Beautiful home 👌.
Thanks Eric.....Best wishes my friend
Well, neither of you have aged at all, except that you actually both look healthier NOW. You are living right! I never watched all the way back to the start, so it is really impressive to see all the challenges and the absolute determination.....even when you appeared to be only hanging on with your finger tips (Jay, don't do that with the ladder again-LOL) Who is the older, distinguished dog? He would be a great subject for a portrait (if you would want one). Thanks so much for putting this together, and for being a great example of what a couple can do when they set their hearts and minds to it.
It was a crazy journey for sure my friend. Old man Benjamin was our pup before Timber came around....the original you could say. So full of love and loyal the end. He enjoyed his time at the property but we lost him about a year and half ago.
What a fantastic video to watch guys, l love seeing the beginnings of your beautiful cabin, now you both can look at it and say “we built that”, have a wonderful 2023, tfs x Julie 🇬🇧
Thanks Julie..😊👍 happy new year my friend
You guys are amazing. So special what you are doing. Thanks for taking me on the journey. Keep it up!
Our pleasure Jesse. Best wishes
Your big ol chocolate lab looks like a bear, from a distance! LOL on the cutting down of the Christmas tree! Awesome kitchen cabinets and counter tops. Beautiful home. 👍😎🇨🇦🌲📷🐾🐾
