I really feel for the only horse you have now, he`s watch 2 of what could be friends to him, come and go.

Jeremy is quite chipper since being back to his homeland. He was even singing! Love it!

Congrats on getting to 501K subscribers!

Poor lexin lost his girl, poor little Debbie being moved all around. I hope this is her last home and her forever. I'm so sad.

Every window you open up is a big WOW! I went to Yellowstone last year and I thought I wore out the word WOW, but I guess not. The views from every window is INCREDIBLE. As far as the horses go, don’t tell yourself that you are failing. You do perfectly picking out the right horse for that time, BUT, the kids are growing, and so is their wants and needs. It was sad to see the pony leaving, but like you said, she will like her new life.

It was so sad to watch Lex watching Miss Debbie go. Like watching a mate or family member go. You are so strong because I could never raise animals to sell because they become a part of me. Hoping you find the perfect horse for your family.

I know how hard it is to lose a pet. On a good note, losing Lil Debbie to a good home where she will be happy and well cared for has got to be comforting. The garage is really starting to look awesome. Although I am not a fan of electric vehicles, I do think your decision to install a charging option in the garage for one is an excellent decision. We indeed don't know what things will be like in the future. Keep up the great work. I look so forward to Saturday mornings to watch your next video. 🥰

Ahhh. I hope you find Lexon a buddy soon. Horses are such herd animals I'd hate to see him get depressed.

Lexon looked so sad☹ I know it was hard to see her go but looks like she went to some good people.

Hence the reason mud rooms are never over rated. Gotta love the mud!

I was just about to mention the ranch in Kohala on the ‘Big Island’ of Hawaii!! Paniolo country!! 🐴 🐎

Omg you keep making me cry with these horses

Have a wonderful weekend ❤️ Not fitting is no good for you or the animal. In this case a horse. Love you little Debbie, you will not be forgotten. ❤

Great idea thinking ahead for the 220. I have a 220 in my garage since I'm a potter, and I run my kilns off it. So...if you don't get an electric car, you could always get a kiln and play with clay. 😊

I was wondering how you were so good with cutting out the receptacles. Thanks for showing how you worked it out! I had bought a pony for my daughter and it kicked her on Easter morning as she went to feed it. After an emergency surgery for a shattered liver, my daughter recovered well and still wanted a horse. We went to a horse sale and looked at several with a disappointing, "not that one". As we were walking by a barn a yearling paint stuck it's neck through a window and I walked into it. Almost knocked me down. Yes, we bought that one and had him trained for dressage and western riding. He got a 3rd place at his first competition. My daughter rode him for several years. When my daughter left for college. We sold him. Yes he was like a family member. My daughter went on to win several ribbons and awards for barrel racing and several years of driving wagons pulled by a pair of percherons at the National stock show in Colorado. It all worked out, praise the Lord. She doesn't ride horses anymore.

Another beautiful episode. Thank you!

Garage is looking great! Sorry to see your horse Debbie go ..but she went to a great family 😊❤

Your trip to Hawaii was beautiful but there's no place like home. A vacation really refreshes you to come back to work on the build. Sorry to see Debbie go but that family will love and enjoy her. Donkeys would be awesome to have! Another great video !

In the uk we put our dry wall vertically and not staggered and it’s never fallen off or been a questionable action in my 61 years.

I’ve done drywall the exact same way and in town and passed inspections. No issue. Just tape and putty and lots of sanding. Welcome home.

It's good to know she is going to a good family. You can tell that girl knows what she's doing and Debbie is in good hands

7:34 Eli looks soooo cute as a cowboy! Absolutely adorable! Have fun Eli!

Melissa, you are so sweet about your children's connection to the horses. I hope you find the right fit soon. BTW, I loved last week's video. Vacations are a simply the best "break" of all.

I've watched a lot of videos on building homes, I've always been a do it yourself guy. Two of the best built homes I've ever seen are the outsider and your channel. Jeremy is a really great builder. I love the perfectionist in his building. You all are a wonderful couple.

Lovely video !!!. Wow , you have a piece of Paradise where you are living. The view is breathtaking beautiful. The sunset was magnificently. I am happy for you your children living in such beauty surroundings with your animals that view, the quiet no traffic. You are doing a lovely job on the garage, you would think you were professional. I was impressed with your young cowboy of your family with his handsome smile. He proud to be cowboy. I am always impressed with your videos seeing what you are up to. I appreciate you sharing your family, your lives with us, always interesting. Thank you for sharing .

My first thought was how much time you will save installing the drywall vertically, and for the garage, it's perfectly fine! 👌 It's looking great! 😀

❤ Glad Little Debi found a home. Wishing you much luck in finding the right fit hoarse down the road. ❤

Congratulations on 510k, enjoying all your doing as a family God bless you All 🙏

Another awesome video by a beautiful family. I just love Eli (TEX) in his plaid gear and big belt buckle.

Good morning and happy Saturday Jeremy, Melissa and kids

"Who's having fun putting up drywall?" 😂😂 That look on her face 😂😂! Me,too dear one, me too!! Love ya'll! Last week was wonderful seeing ya'll relaxing and enjoying his home!

HI JEREMY, MELISSA AND FAMILY AWESOME VIDEO THANK YOU GUY'S ARE AMAZING HAPPY FOR YOU GUYS💥💯💥♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Hi family, awwwww Horse's needs family, a mate or friends of the animal kind. I hope he won't be alone long.

seen the thumbnail pic ,read the title! That scared me...then you and Jeremy started working on the garage ,talked about vacation, and i read comments and realized its one of your fur babies leaving...not that ,this isnt heartbreaking too ,but greatful for the bond and love you and jer have for each other and your kids ,and that you do take down time to be together ,and not just work....big hugs to you all.

Sorry to see Little Debbie go. She is a very pretty pony, but she looks like she is going to a family that she will be more suited for .... meaning they have younger kids that she will be with for a long time. Sometimes you just have to make those hard decisions, and you guys are very good at it👍🏻 It will be cool to see who Little Debbie's replacement is.🐎 You two are really motoring along with the garage .... looking good! I'll bet your parents had a lot of fun critter and house sitting .... despite the weather. Take care you guys .... have a nice weekend🐕🐎🐈🐈‍⬛🐇

AWH...The attachment animals have like humans is sweet, yet heart breaking when separated.

Melissa please wear a mask when working with all that dust .... Protect your lungs

Yeah 500k. Once you watch you are hooked. Great rescue Melissa. ❤

Your new addition is looking awesome!!!

The weather in northern Idaho is somewhat cooler than Hawaii. I'll bet Jeremy doesn't get any more tanned now that you're home. Must have been a shock to the system. Glad you had a great time on your vacation! 💕

The Cowboy has arrived, love him. Your animals always look amazing and well taking care of. Garage is looking amazing, good job guys, job well done.

I’m so glad your family got to experience Hawaii and see where he grew up. Great to see you back at the garage apartment.

Thanks for sharing with us, Gabby is coming along fine and nearing completion. Sure glad you found a great new home for the Older horse where she will serve the younger children well with her kindness and gentleness. You'll get the right match for Eli and a pony he can grow with also, there is a match out there. Stay safe and keep up the great work you all are doing , your sharing has helped many many folks in so many ways. Fred.

Welcome home. I’m so jealous,you got to go to the islands while we sit here and freeze. I enjoyed your trip. Keep working you’ve rejuvenated your body. I enjoy your show, your such a smart family.

Melissa, kids grow and change, plus each one is different, just like horses. The right ones will appear. Your dry wall is stunning

I cried seeing Little Debbie being taking away. I get it, that someone else will have the joy of riding her and Enjoying her. Just going to Miss her.

Jeremy, get a drywall screw setter from one of the big box stores. Itll make hanging the drywall much quicker, and only costs a few dollars.

Sometimes it's good to take a break, clear the mind, and recharge. Have a good week and count your blessings amen

Tell Eli I saw that big, shiny, awesome belt buckle! What a smart looking dude he is! Cowboy up!

Looks like going to Hawaii ,was just what Jeremy needed. He looks so refreshed,and tan,and now ready to get the home jobs done. And Melissa you look just as happy to see Jeremy,s. Rejuvenation. Love your videos,your an awesome family 🙏🏻❤️

Gosh, great video as usual except I cried and had a big lump in my throat when “Little Debbie” left. So sad for your remaining horse. Sounds like you found an amazing family for “Little Debbie”! Hope you all keep in touch like with “Koda”. Although I think they are an amazing animal I actually am a little afraid of horses. Hope “Kenji” is hanging in there! Jeremy and Melissa you are both such hard workers!!

Great video as always but it sure looked cold! We had some crazy amounts of rain here in the Central Valley in California. Glad you found a good home for little Debbie and the additional animals sound great! No worries that you rehome a horse, you are doing what is best for them! So glad your “Gabby” apartment is coming along so well! Have a great week!

Melissa, You haven't failed with the horses. You had the right time even if it didn't work out with the kids. The horses had company and he will again. + A better fit for Eli. It's hard when you get it right then all of the sudden the kids grow older ( We wish the years would go a little slower) Reminds me of the song, Father Time by the group Venice. Says it all. Thank you for sharing your daily adventures. 🤠🧑‍🦰🌲🌲 🎼

Have y’all considered a captain’s bed upstairs? It has lots of storage underneath and you won’t need a dresser. Just an idea.

Goodbye, Miss Debbie, so nice to see Kenji in several shots. Love to see sheet rock going up. I know it’s a pain but it’s also a big step forward. Love seeing the watering Hawaii.

So happy Little Debbie has anew family that fits her and them ❤ yay garage drywall done 🎉 Hope to see what new animal family you adopt ❤

Really enjoyed watching 👍👍. Sad though to see the horse leave

Eli is one handsome little Cowboy!! You should not feel like you are failing with the horses, you seem to be making the right decisions for both your family and the horse. The apartment looks great.

This made my Saturday morning!! It’s a comfort to “spend time with y’all in N ID”! Seeing Little Debbie move to another family can’t be easy and yet seems a necessary step for Eli’s needs and in the end for Debbie. She will serve her next family well. As my tears fell and yours were close Melissa, I understood the heartache of letting them go. ❤ Thanks for continuing to share your life!

Thank you friends for sharing the update of the new project. The snowy landscape of the mountains is spectacular. Debbie's arrival will be a great ally for the family, especially for Eli. Happy weekend! 👍👍

I dont think he is only a little sad. I do understand your opinion about horses could be a stepping stone but i think with horses and i grew up with many, its good to plan as good as possible a little more longterm so there’s not so much coming and going.

Congratulations on getting over 500 thousand subscribers. Look forward to every video or vlog.❤

In Belgium we put the drywall on vertical.

Sad to see Debbie leave the farm , but you are doing what's best for the family ! Loved the video ! ❤

Have fun with the minis, Jeremy 🤣

Awe, i teared up with little Debi leaving with that shot of Lexen, he is probably thinking i cant keep my friends 😢.. nice tan Jeremy ,probably as dark as me down under 😂😊

Hello to my beautiful family.

Good to see cowboy Eli back in his element! He needs a mini cow to practice bull riding on! 😂

I love how you said that about not giving up on getting it right. Y'all are great parents and great life long partners in marriage,parents and making every leap in life as close to perfect as y'all can make it. Time spent together as family and sharing everyday life and journeys together is the best y'all can do for each other and for the kids. Continue walking that journey. Before you know it the kids will be grown and moving forward. Y'all have great memories to keep in y'all's heart and ❤❤❤❤❤❤ that. Again it's always such a joy to see there's still families out there that cherishes what God has blessed y'all with. Continued success in building and finishing up on this project which is amazing.

Eli was so cute. Was his shirt buttoning off by one? Your kiddos are growing up fast. Love watching your channel grow.

Awwwe. Poor Lexan. He looks so sad 😭😭😭

yikes thats cold!...good job!

Aloha! The addition is slowly and very methodically taking shape. Your presicion cutting is on point!

Thanks for the update on Melissa’s parents taking care of all your animal companions 🐕‍🦺🐈🐇🐑🐎💖 while y’all were gone. 🌺

You are right. You can't force a connection. You'll find the right horse. It's hard to get your hopes up and then attached to the horse only to find out that it's not quite right. Little Debbie did her job well. She gave the kids a chance and the confidence to move on. Now she will continue to bring that same experience to other children. ❤

Yes it’s sad to see little Debbie leave but her season with your family ended and she will give another family years of sweetness. Love see Gabby drywalled. Nice job

love miss debbie so sad ,,,hopefully you will find another horse quick

Always a pleasure to watch your progress guys, Hawaii a vacation well deserved 🎉❤

Awww hope you find him a buddy soon. He looks sad.

Your garage is looking really good, you’re really making progress on Gabby. Good luck with your new horse find. 👍👍❤️❤️🇨🇦

Great video! Hope you guys have a great week!

Bless you Melissa, the right horse will come along. Love the videos, Hawai was wonderful x

was just about to go sort the washer when your new post popped up. oh well wont hurt to leave it a bit longer, sooner watch your vlog, so much more interesting lol. loved your hawaii holiday, so melted my heart and in the pod cast you could see the pure pleasure and love jeremy had in connecting to his roots again.

The drywall makes such a big difference

Isn't drywall and insulating the worst part of any build!? Nice to see you get a big chuck of it done and behind you now. I hope you guys read my comment on your podcast this past week. It is great to see you back to work on your dream home, and seeing Eli happy back in his cowboy clothes was great too. Have a great week guys. As always, sending love from our acreage to yours. PS we had to suffer the -30s up here and no Hawaii for us this year lol.

Gabby(my toy poodle)and I love watching all your videos,especially the ones about gabby the garage!!She loves all your animals.

I'm on the Big Island where my Mom was born and raised except om in Ocean View on the west side and she was born 120 miles away in Hilo. My Kid's were both born in Hilo and still live here one 39 years old and the other 35, Renee Lei O-Ka Malia and Richard Ikaika Wulzen. Love it here . I was born in 1939 in Alameda California , I have been here in Hawaii for 56 years. Lived on Oahu for in Makaha for 6 years and on the Big Island for 50 years. Oahu was way too busy and crowded, too much traffic and way too many people. Oahu 669 square miles and 600,000 people including all the military, big Island 4000 square miles and 190,000 people.

Love you guys, thank you again for sharing your home, kids and pets with us! I have to admit that seeing Debbie go brought me to tears- I can’t imagine what you all must go through when you know it’s time to let them go to another family🤍 sending hugs😘

I used to live in Park City Utah and the night skies were so beautiful I just love mountain skies. Your skies are so beautiful too.

Sad for Lexon to be alone again 😟

I really enjoy your pictures of the scenery. You have beautiful mountains, and your pictures of the night sky are worth your home choice.

We understand, it is for the best. Jeremy, watch out you could be next :)

So fun to watch…always anticipate a new Saturday episode.

happy you had a great time in Hawaii - but glad to see you back at work.... : ) Seeing your horse go to a new home... must be emotionally challenging... But you will find the perfect match....
