I'm just going to say it. One of the best, if not THE Best channel on KZfaq. Content, Personalities, Editing, story telling, and progress. It's all right here. All your videos are top notch

Josh is back and QC'ing Erin's work...I love it. Looks like she passed with flying colors. Good to see some Farm Life in this video!

Your kids reactions to the freezer and moon was so cute! Most kids don’t appreciate these things.

I know it's been said before, but it bares repeating....I've watched your channel since you poured your footers; how far you've come is inspiring. Congratulations on the rewards for your hard work. I can't imagine the satisfaction you feel every time you look around. Your home and your family are beautiful. Blessed Be.💜

First thing I’m going to mention if I’m ever invited over 😂 “aren’t those railings off center?” 🤣 Awesome! Glad he’s back and you got your partner In crime back ❤️ ❤️

Josh, go to your local Farmer Store and get a pair of Fence pliers. That's all you need for fence building. Amazon has them also. Their called pliers but come with built in wire cutters, hammer, wire stretcher, and fence U shape staples puller, a multi tool. On the home ranch in Montana, we always took a pair no matter the job.

Your family reminds me of my husband and when we first got married. In time we had 3 kids...2 girl and a boy. And a farm in the hills of ky. We had stock and dogs to watch them. I loved every minute of it. I love watching your videos. And that adorable little girl and Leon and the boys. I am glad your husband is feeling better.

Just wanna express how inspirational you two are.

Chill out, Josh, it looks great to us. The whole house and decking look great

Great to see Josh feeling better.. I laughed throughout the whole vid 😂😂 You both are hilarious.. Everything is looking great!! God bless..

92% Healed lol, that sounds familiar. I send group texts to the family if I hurt my back or have a cold "FYI Family I am at 78% today which is still 110% of most men" lol

Sitting here the wife and I, nursing the Covid. Your antics and happiness are very contagious. We know that we will be just fine even at 70, we laugh and love our life together. The best medicine. Keep it up kids.

Glad to see Josh back, he loafed off long enough. LOL. However, Erin you did an awesome job carrying on while Josh was down. You are an amazing family and the very best on YT.

Erin, Josh, when you said 3 years this fabulous story has been running already, I scratched my head! 3 years already? Wow time flys I remember when Josh did auger the first hole for the foundation, or when you both build the first A rafter and erected it! And soon you’re crossing the 1MM sub mark and I can say, I’m one of a million! You guys rock! Keep going and thank you for having g us at your homestead. PS: Josh being out of level in a wall put character on a build, wink, wink, nudge, nudge LOL. I love that banter!

Greetings from Alaska, Erin and Josh. I just wanted to say that your channel is a welcomed respite during the depths of our Arctic winter. My wife and I have carved out our 80-acre farmstead from raw wilderness and we would not trade our self-reliant lives for anything. May you keep pursuing your goals with passion and integrity.

I love watching you two, all of your projects look more than professional! It’s amazing how well you work together… Josh is a lot OCD while Erin defuses what could blow up with her special humor… Josh is crazy talented…. Truly makes my day to see a video!

You two should have your own show on the DIY channel !

From Baton Rouge, La . Glad your feeling better Josh.

Carter-the freezer stabilizer! Good job helping mom & dad!

I am Said from Algeria, which is located in North Africa on the mediterranean, I love what you do, I love the life in out of the town,I wish you happy and a long life, Said form Algeria.

Glad to see you have your assistant back Erin! 💪

Josh, dry wall and spackling are hard. Trust me I did my whole second floor master bedroom. It was a pain in the butt. Just be happy you have a great spouse to help you out and point out your faults.

What looks nice, more noticeable than the rail is how the side stairs continue the symmetry of the house roof! :-)

The railings look great, don’t sweat it Josh ! 😊

Guys, this next phase is gonna be off the charts, with so much of the infrastructure in and now the farm, the kids, the life. We, of course, are at the beginning but totally inspired and humbled by what you have done thus far. We love the diversity of your overall plan, it’s not just buildings and equipment, nor just farm chores, nor just solar, but you’re incorporation of it all together into the mosaic of a happy life. Congrats and cheers, Dan and Elle

Every since I watched your first video, Erin, I saw something very special about your personality and presentation evolving in your videos. By the fourth video, you had me hooked as you progressed into the best off-grid related video on KZfaq. Although your videography skills are fantastic, I truly believe that it's all of you as a family and the warmth you exude to us, that makes us feel like we are also your extended family. There is nothing close on KZfaq to your channel that holds my anticipation for another video like yours do.

This show should definitely be on Netflix! Absolutely beautiful.

For your house warming party, hand out tape measures so they can check the front rails and stair distances.

it's truly remarkable how such a home of beauty can be built by two people working as a team... What a great family. Love you guys.

You work so hard, I admire you so much. I have learned a lot of skills from you

Erin and Josh, I got in late on your videos so I went back to the very beginning and followed everyone of them, all I can say is fantastic. I will agree with the comments that these are some of the best I have seen. The two of you did a fantastic job for not having any real building skills. I expected Josh to be a professional with wiring and electrical circuits but he has the ability to envision these ideas and solutions in his mind and Erin adds her own insight. What I find amazing is Erin's ability, so mush more than her looks and personality a real pro!! I wish you two all the best, you deserve it.

Everything y'all are doing on your property is inspirational. Keep up the great videos. The wonderful humor. When Erin was like let's be serious time and still said her tools in her power house. I cracked. Up.

I'm impressed with all your food storage. Not to mention your ability to live off the land. You guys are truly setup to be self sufficient, prepared for unstable times ahead. I'm working on it with my family too, but not quite there yet. Loved the video.

The best youtube. You guys are just great. Love the Ram paddock so you can get work done. Love the piggies! Favorite scene for this video was opening the new freezer and seeing the whole family at once! Okay, the "Mommy the Moon is full!" was really adorable.

Just need to say that Erin's laugh is absolutely infectious! Beautiful chuckle!!

This episode is awesome how much you guys mess with each other cracks me up KEEP IT UP... You guys are a amazing team and do great work 👏 👍

I just love you guys.!I love your channel for many reasons: the whole family dynamic,, the simple desire of rural living (and the hard work it takes), your love and partnership and especially your beautiful family. Nearing my 64th year I have lived many existences from beautiful homes in typical Calif neighborhoods, a ranch and certified organic orchard of 350 trees to one of my best lives in an old hunting cabin in the woods with no heat or electricity. Living in the woods by far, defined me and I so appreciate your weekly reminder of the joy of simple living. Erin you are the perfect combination of smarts, beauty and girl you got some grit! and Josh I can't comment about you without tears (good ones) for you remind me so much of my brother Ron who passed way too young at 49. Men folk like you are defined by hard work, integrity and family bond wrapped in a wicked sense of humor. Love it all and I thank you from the bottom of my heart for the joy you bring,,,..Merry Christmas guys!

Thanks for being one of the few people out there that is so natural and nothing is staged the same with Trend and Alley. Thanks for keeping us inspired and show people how a couple sgould be like. You guys are awesome. My God bless you this new year and keep you save. Love you guys

Your kids are great! Being raised right, in the country, work hard, play hard. And they get along so good. They obviously love each other. A perfect life....

One gift Erin-Josh need are called self centering drill bits used mostly for hinges since the all but guarantee a screw will drive in straight as well as flush. There a spring loaded bit so it will drill once its aligned in the hole, they come in sets of numerous sizes and are not that expensive to buy or give to others...

Railing looks fantastic guys! Sounds like your permanent fencing plans will help a ton with livestock management with limited time 👍

Epic story that you can tell to your grandchildren. You guys are amazing and what you do together inspire us from around the world. Keep up the good work!

So much getting accomplished!! Glad to see Josh is up to 91 1/2 % now .

Until Josh can walk on water, between the lines will do just fine. You go, Erin.

I love watching every episode. Such a wholesome family atmosphere. I really appreciate you sharing your endeavors with us. Love this family big time.

Erin you have done an amazing job while Josh was laid up. you have a beautiful home and a beautiful family, so I want to wish you a very merry Christmas and a very happy new year

The trick I learned to have grass in one year is right b4 it starts to snow till or use the bob cat bucket teeth tear layers into the dirt and put seed down let it go over winter nothing will grow but roots under ground then right after the last freeze use bucket teeth again do the same thing and throw seed down again and by end of summer it be full of grass. Works everytime for me..

It is so good seeing how Carter and Hayden have stepped up helping you and Josh, while Ellie gets to stay her adorable self.

Glad to see Josh back in action!

Woo hoo! Glad you're all mended Josh! My hubby is always watching your videos and I'm usually listening while cooking or cleaning. Really admire what you guys do and you have an awesome family. Happy Holidays! ❤💚❤💚

MERRY CHRISTMAS to WWOG, family, and friends around the world! May the grace and peace of GOD the Father and the LORD Jesus Christ be with you all!

Carter is the eldest yeah? Even just a momentary mention about the pigs overnight you can see his care for animals. You're raising a good one there guys!! All 3 but that moment just stood out to me is all. Good luck with future fencing!!

I love the sense of humor you guys have. It improves everything in life! Merry Christmas to you!

I just love how everything is coming together beautifully and fast 💕 and I ❄ wish y'all a MERRY CHRISTMAS 🎅 🎄 ❤

Josh it looks great! Don’t stress over the little things. You Will one day remember the imperfections and all the wonderful memories that made it yours!

Love this channel. It keep getting better and better each video. Keep up the great work.

I’m glad you are feeling better Josh, I broke 3 ribs and it’s definitely not fun, glad to see you back! Love your channel, it’s all about work and family, it doesn’t get any better than that. I can’t believe what you guys have accomplished in 3 years, such a beautiful home and homestead! Merry Christmas to you and the kids, and Leon and Chuck ( the real bosses ) ✌🏼❤️🙏🏼🎄

Welcome back Josh stay healthy with the whole family all the best Good luck

Josh with all the building your doing invest in a portable sawmill you have a lot of lumber on your property, also build a solar kiln to dry the lumber you cut, you'll save a lot of money! House looks great!

Welcome back Josh ! Do you have any railing leftover?if so cut and shape 2 sections to join the roof line to the rest of the railing. This will let the roof flow evenly into your porch and keep children and animals from going up on to the roof or down to the ground . Please don't ask me how I know!

Love your videos, look forward to them weekly. Hope your family has a blessed Christmas and of course Happy New Year.

Another great vlog. Your Christmas tree looks so beautiful in that big window. Merry Christmas to your beautiful family.🎄❤️

I luv rhat Josh let's his little sweetheart help him with the fence. Thank u for the upload guy's

True love does still exist in this time I'm living. Great to know it.

The deck flows in perfect harmony with the house ,you should be so proud guys ,you have work so hard to get to this point of the building and everything looks just great,blessings to the whole family from this part of the world,Happy hollydays !

I'd love to see more of your livestock care!!

Josh, since not everybody has your eye, I suggest taking a old tape measure, cutting it apart, and glueing down a section on each end of the handrail. That'll help other people appreciate your big mistake. I really like the fun you guys seem to have working together.

Your homestead looks amazing. It is inspiring

Woohoo Iv been isolating all week and couldn’t wait for your next video to come out ! Love you guys !! MERRY CHRISTMAS to you all ! X

I like the changes you all have made to the deck railing to make everything safer, and the additional freezer will give you all more storage room for meats and other food items to be stored. Those pigs do look great and will be slaughter size next year.

A fold down hand truck/cart would be handy, like moving that freezer into the building and moving cages around with the pigs, it would come in very handy.

So happy to see Josh working again. Was nice to see you two together again. I really enjoy watching your videos. You all please take care and be safe

I love you guys it’s been great to see your back happily ever after

Glad u r doing better Josh

Wow, I love the railing. Really ties the deck into the house. Love all your choices.

I’m jealous I wish I had somebody that was as dedicated as you are to each other and life that’s awesome

Great to see Josh back in action.

Railing looks awesome great job installing it

You may call them "misteaks", but I call them those special features that make it your home with very personal touches! Lots of memories and smiles and laughs along the way.

The railing looks great,you guys are doing a fantastic job cheers

You two are amazingly, unperfically;perfect! Keep rocking on!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from our family to your's xxx 🎅🌲

So pleased you are mobile again, Josh. Thank you all for the wonderful content this year. Some parts of 2021 have been pretty hairy I found and being able to watch your family life each week has lightened my heart considerably and, most weeks has left me with a smile on my face! You have definitely been part of my comfort zone this year. Have a wonderful safe holiday; I am wishing you all the best.

Nice to see a couple have fun together. (Teasing and all)

I can’t believe it has been 3 years. I have enjoyed watching you guys. You are awesome. You are inspirational for people to see

Like I said yesterday, I loooove y'all!! I wake up and watch your videos when I'm drinking my coffee. Y'all make a great team! You put a smile on my face!! I want a hoodie!!

Good to see that Josh is coming along well! Always enjoy your videos.

Always great to see Erin's smile

I thoroughly enjoy watching your videos!! Always leave me looking forward to the next one. The builds, the humor, the family life. I think you all are a model of what life is supposed to be like! I hope 2022 brings you all the happiness possible. You all deserve it!!

Hi Erin, This may seem like a strange request but my mom LOVES your channel and talks about you Josh and the kids like you are family. She will be turning 80 on her birthday January 3rd and I was hoping and praying that you would be willing to wish her a happy 80th birthday in an upcoming video. Her name is Annette and she lives in Payson, Arizona. God bless you and your beautiful family.

Happy Holidays Josh, Erin, Carter, Hayden and Ellie 🎄. May your Holidays be filled with Love, Laughter and lots of Adventure. Happy Holidays Everyone ⛄🎄🦌 Stay Happy 😂 Safe and Healthy everyone 💕

Seasons Greetings Beautiful Family. Nice progress on the farm. Glad Josh is doing better. The kids are growing up quickly.

It’s fine girl!! Everything’s perfect. I told you to have the drywall done by guys that do it all the time. I’ve done it for better than half my life and I criticize myself!! It’s the hardest thing to get right!! Can’t see it on the videos, so looks great !

That scene where you opened the freezer with the camera inside --- and your family looking in --- was just beautiful. Merry Christmas and Happy holidays!

Looks great! It keeps getting better and better! So nice to see you laughing and having fun.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all!

Merry Christmas to my Wild Wonderful Family .

Glad your getting back to full health Josh. I know Erin and the kids are happy to have you back out there too. Merry Christmas to you all!

The deck will look really awesome with the stone. Hope to see that soon.

13:53 It is very easy to use a bobcat or tractor bucket to push the T-Stake into the ground. Have someone hole the t-stake vertical where it is to go and move the tractor bucket above the t-stake and then simply lower the bucket pushing the t-stake into the ground.
