I just wanted to say thank you to you all for your kind words and your continued support. We truly appreciate it! You guys are so awesome!!❤❤😊

Love you, babe! You have nothing to be embarrassed about!. We learned a lot during this process, and we'll just keep on doing what we love to do! In our lovely home!..😘😘🥰🥰

I love how you said if you get what you want it’s Gods direction , and if you don’t it’s His protection!!!!❤❤❤ Don’t feel bad about disappointing your viewers we will just continue to enjoy what you do give us!

What a Savior we have! He is always in the details, big and small. ❤ Your viewers love you!

I so love both of your hearts for the things of God❣️ This life is not about the destination, but rather the journey and what we learn through every experience on this side of Heaven. I’m not at all disappointed because there is something SO VERY SPECIAL about the home you are creating right where you are now. God’s timing is always different from our own, but what a comfort it is to know we can trust that our Father truly knows BEST!!! God’s delays are not denials. In time you will understand even more about why this was not the right time… but the vision/dream you hold in your heart is for an appointed time! Sending so much love your way ~ your Texas sister in Christ, Trina 🤠❤

Anna, hearing your story was so inspiring! I've never heard the phrase about God's direction vs God's protection but I love that and it makes total sense! I know He has great things in the future for you and Ernie! Sending you a huge hug!

There is no need to be embarrassed. You and your husband are blessed and highly favored, and God will guide you in the way he chooses for you! Continued blessings to both of you 🙏😊

Totally understand! Your "journey" thru this is a wonderful lesson for many of us... that may have been the ultimate purpose. TFS!!!

Don’t feel bad. You didn’t disappoint us at all. God is so good. I love how y’all are so obedient. Thank you for sharing.

Anna we will always support you, we love what you and Ernie do. God is good and blessing will always be yours.

God’s ways are not always our ways. Your faithfulness will not go unnoticed by the Lord and no telling what He has in store for you and Ernie in the future. This was by no means disappointing and thank you for your honesty. God bless you and Ernie🙏🏻❤️

" when you got what you want its God direction, If you don't its God protection" that just ministered to me! I'm so sorry things didn't work out, though this news is great. to hear your heart and how you are trusting God in the midst is great News. He is Faithful and that is Big News for us! Thank you so much for sharing!

Our Lords way, is the only way! It’s a blessing!

Indeed, God is good! I’m sure it was a disappointment, but you are so right. God has another plan for you. Thank you for trusting in us & being so transparent & honest! Looking forward to seeing what you are up to next. God bless!!

Praise God, Anna, proud of you for listening to God. Things will work out for your good. Beautiful testimony today, Anna. No apologies needed.

Sorry you didn’t get to have the B&B. Understand it’s hard but thankfully you are a believer & know things work out as HE intended. Love you Anna & will be here watching your videos as long as you post them! Take care! Hugs!

Amen and Amen to everything you said about our Jesus!!!!! Proverbs 3:5-6 💕💕💕 When the time comes…I will travel wherever your B&B is to be your guest!!!!! God gives the very best to those who leave the choice to HIM!!!!

As a Realtor in the Denver Colorado area, let me just say how awesome it is to hear you say thank you and show appreciation to the loan officer and real estate agent that were helping you ♥ So, 4 mons back when you posted the video of you and Ernie driving to Florida I had a feeling that you might have been planning a move lol at any rate, God has his plan on his time for you and your family. I enjoy watching your videos!

When Tommy died at the end of 2014, I could not do anything for two years. I went back-and-forth about selling our home. I pray every day and I ask God to show me what I needed to see😊 as I went through different houses and look for different things, for some reason, I kept backing away. All the time thinking, does He wants me to move? That wasn’t the case😮 so anyways I just was getting frustrated so I waited and prayed and waited and prayed and I didn’t go to the right and I didn’t go to the left. I just stayed in the middle till I got my answer🙏fast-forward almost 6 months. No answer was my answer from my heavenly father🙏 when my ear gates and my eye gates were open and my mouth gate was closed I was able to hear and see that He wanted me to stay right where I was, where I am today. I started remodeling each room and I love my home. I have no desire to move. The key is listening to God’s voice, the Holy Spirit drawing deep inside us ❤thank you so much for sharing my friend. God bless you and Ernie. You could be changing a lightbulb and Ernie could be holding the ladder and I’d watch you didn’t disappoint anybody. I will be here for you. God bless, love Otis 🐶and me Massachusetts. Every trial no matter what kind we go through if we lay everything at our heavenly Father’s feet, there is always a blessing and a lesson learned at the end.

You shouldn't be embarrassed. You and Ernie are amazing how you dealt with all of this. Faith is what gets people through the hard times and you both are a testament to that. God always has a plan and his plan is always so much better. You have such a good attitude that I just know good things are coming your way and I'm eager to hear what it is but for now I will enjoy your videos they are always inspiring and uplifting. Have a blessed day.

You know that we will all be here for you and Ernie. Take care of yourselves and just trust in the process. One step at a time and be grateful for what you have.

Hello Anna, it's been a little while. I enjoy watching your channel, your meals, and your Decor ideas. Now, I must say I absolutely love your natural hair growing out. When I first started letting my natural grays out it was hard for me. Especially that I had ALL the grays and my husband had NONE.... he is 5 years older but age doesn't matter, it the genes... anyway I learned to accept me, now I found that was the best thing for me. No More Chemicals on my head. All this to say , I love your New Look. God bless you 🙏

We really do have a God who cares. I was in that situation last year. We couldn't purchase a house till we sold our current one which meant we missed out on lots of great homes. Looking back at it im glad our old home didn't sell right away because the house we are in now is absolutely perfect for us. Most everything I wanted this home had and had we purchased earlier I think we would have regretted it. I was praying for these things in my house and God made me wait. God was probably like, "im gonna give you what you prayed for so you're gonna wait."

Don’t worry about us - your life is your life and you were just excited and wanting to share with us. Things happen or don’t, for a reason!

God is our answer to everything that we need and have, nothing happens without him. You and Ernie are an inspiration to us all so don’t stop, let God be your leader. ❤❤

I aways believe thay god has plans for us. Sometimes we dont get our way.....and i love that you embraced it. Your home now is beautiful and your next journey will be just as wonderful. You can always throw dinner parties and feed friends amazing food.

Please don't feel bad for us Anna. I completely understand as a believer if God is not in it I accept that 100 %. He always want the best for us. I look forward to enjoy the new projects that Ernie and you have for us in your beautiful home 🏡. Love you guys ♡!!

You are so right in saying, that you are not embarrassed. There is no reason to be. You explained it all so perfectly! And just because it didn't work out now, if it's what God wants for you, it still can happen. I love watching you and your husband transform your home and garden. It's all so beautiful! GOD IS IN CONTROL OF YOUR LIVES! ❤❤

Thank you so much Anna for being transparent, it is so refreshing! I am a strong believer and I believe that our wonderful awesome God has plans for you and Ernie, and just maybe this was a time of testing to strengthen your tuning in and listening to Him. You are both so awesome for sharing your faith and it is so encouraging to others. You have no reason to think your audience will shrink! God honors honesty, and those who stand up for Him. I’m just so excited to see the work on your house continue and to see your vision for your gardens to happen! So excited!!!! Don’t let evil suggest doubt! Love you ♥️

God’s protection. The Angels are around you both. So happy you made a trip to Franklin. Getting near my neck of woods. There are so many paces aroudvTeessee you will totally enjoy. Astir goes by I am going to give ya a few suggestions. 🤪🤪. So many adventures ahead for you both. God only wants what is best for you. Obedience has its rewards. ❤️🙏🏼. I can tell by my type/ spelling content late night correspondence is not my thing. lol. Just read through my jibberish. We all love an are blessed by you & family and feel all of us all have much in common. Smell the roses.

Thank you for sharing your life with us. ❤ You had great enthusiasm to share. That's not a bad thing! We've all been there! It's a journey with many unknowns. God has us Hallelujah! Definitely looking forward to your future videos! Love and Blessings to you both ! ❤🙏🙌

I really appreciate the message you gave today. It’s helped me with something I’m dealing with on a personal level.

I really appreciate your style. Can't wait for another cooking video! Great job!

delayed but not denied keep trusting God and it will all work out 🙏🏾❤️

Hi Anna! When a door closes, a window opens. It would have been a great project for the two of you but I really believe that you will find something else even better. Faith is a powerful force! We are not disappointed, we believe in your talent and we'll always be watching. ❤️

Hey Friend, Happy Friday. I’m so excited to finally know the big news that you have been putting off telling us! 😊 I agree god opens and closes doors through his timing and it’s hard to understand why he does it at times. 😮😊 Normally when doors are hard to open, it will be more than worth it when the opportunity occurs. It took me forever to find a job that will give me experience with my degree but it finally happened and it was well worth it. 😊🥰 Sometimes what you think is an opportunity or something that is in god’s plan turns out that it is not 🥲

I’m still holding out for your home and gardens to be in a magazine. Have a great week 💐

Actually, I appreciate you taking us through the ups & the downs, because we can all relate to being disappointed with one thing or another. In the end things work out exactly how they’re suppose to, and this is when you lean into your faith to get you through. Keep dreaming, keep praying…you’ll get your B&B and it will be fabulous!🙏🏼🤗

Anna, You have absolutely nothing to be ashamed of. It would have been very, very hard for me not to say anything if I had been that excited about that venture. You and Ernie would make a perfect couple for a Bed & Breakfast. As you said, it wasn’t what God decided was best. You have a beautiful home and now you will start on your other projects. A bunk room sounds wonderful for grandchildrren! Wishing you both the best! 😊❤😊🙏

Anna, Ernie, things happen for reason, believe me I know, and when the right time comes you will know, my late husband, and I always believe d in God's way.

Your dream sounds like a lot of work, and it really is. I know a little about B&B. I feel that there comes a point and time when life should be easy, retirement sounds good. Enjoy your life and it is great news to know that you both are believers. Sometimes what we want is not what God wants for us. You have not disappointed me, and I understand because I own property and I am a Realtor also. I always tell my customers, don't say anything until you have the keys in your hand. Enjoy your life. Lots of us have eaten crow! 🙏 God bless.

Good morning, Anna. What a surprise? I think you both would have been great at it if it was God's plan. I feel the same as you God directs. Let you go forward or puts on the brakes. Who are we too question God's plans? He knows what's best for us and will always provide the resources. Can't wait to see what he does have in mind. Love your show and with you. One hundred percent have a blessed day the oklahoma gardener

As the old saying goes, It will all work out in the wash. I have had things happen that I was disappointed about but it worked out better in the end. You both are lovely and honest people and God will lead your way. God bless you both! 😊

My husband & I always say if God does it “great”, if he doesn’t “great”! Gods delays r not his denials! I’m so happy u & Ernie r where u r in Faith. God bless u guys! John 3:16🙏

Anna things happen for a reason. I see Florida being your next destination.

Your such a beautiful human being ❤️

❤just like you said if, it didn't happen it was His protection.❤lov the way you said it.😊

What a testimony. I do believe God has our best interests at heart. He knows best. God provides what we need. Thank you for such a beautiful testimony

Totally understand.. and look forward to your next projects, especially your library…God is awesome ❤

Your so right putting pray and trusting God . To open doors and to colosing them also . Your so blessed enjoy it and you and Erin keep God first and he take care of the rest . Your a blessing to watch thanks for sharing your life

No worries, Anna. We still love you. You'll, you'll get what you deserve. You have to listen to your guts. But you'll get you'll get something beautiful, can't wait.❤❤🎉

Congratulations on your dream

Anna, you touched a very good subject in this show. My daughter is trying to buy a house, but every time a house goes up for sale, they outbid her in the most ridiculous way, and I just thank god for putting it in me to tell her simply “Thy will be done”. I told her if it’s not the lord’s will, it will not happen. He knows when, where, size, neighborhood and everything else, he has in store for her. So, even though it’s so frustrating and disappointing, she has to wait on the lord to see what he has in store for her. As for you Anna; you never know what he has in store for you and Ernie. Hang in there

Hi Anna and Ernie sorry this did not work out for you but I think god has something else planned for you hang in there. We will be here and watch your awesome videos always 💕

🥰🙏🏻

I know you're disappointed..God knows the plan for you and Ernie..it will happen ..we are not nor will ever be disappointed by anything you do, you're very genuine and transparent...much love to you and Ernie..may God continue to bless y'all..XOXO ❤️

❤❤❤❤ You are a precious soul ,and so proud that Y’all are following the Lord . We will be watching for anything that you post ❤❤❤❤❤

I’m so sorry for you Anna & Ernie. Your home is a beautiful you are so blessed and when Ernie retires you guys can travel. God Bless. ❤️❤️

Our God is an awesome God! He sees our hearts and he honors obedience! You and Ernie are so blessed and you give all the honor and glory to God! Now that you’re not moving, I expect to see some kind of a pond in your yard. L O L.😉😉🤭🤭! I can’t wait to see how you fix up the bunk room. Blessings.❤❤

Anna - thanks for sharing- God has wonderful plans I’m sure for you and Ernie! ❤️

God has bigger plans for you!!

Anna, you are doing the right thing. When we pray there are three answers. Yes, no or not right now. You’re very smart not to push forward when God has said no or not right now. i’ve had many disappointments in my life and every time God gave me something better. He can see things we cannot see. One of his favorite things is to take something bad and make something good out of it. Love in Christ

What a great testimony you shared with this video! There's no telling how many people you touched. Thank you for such uplifting and humble words even though y'all are a little heartbroken. God bless!

❤❤❤

You are absolutely right. So glad you have God in the center of your life! You are blessed . I feel blessed to just hear your faith speaking out to us. It will all be good.

Anna & Ernie God bless! What a beautiful testimony of your faith. I'm sure God knew your hearts enough that He could go through this with you & you would bring it to your channel & again be a testimony of Faith. Which is far more valuable than a new business (not knocking the business) but what you just did for the Kingdom with your expression of faith is gorgeous. Far more beautiful & valuable than any home decoration. Your life & love is an expression of faith. Your marriage & family & how much of yourself you share, is Gods WORK!! ❤️ I have commented before on your marriage & what a testimony it is. For what it's worth I will keep your intentions in my prayers. 🙏🙏🙏 In, J*M*J (Jesus * Mary *Joseph) -Mary ❤️❤️🙏🙏

Anna you an Ernie would have been wonderful B&B owners but as you said God is who leads the way.Maybe something better is coming your way. I love how straight forward you are Anna,a sweet,caring person with a big heart! I love your channel Anna,it’s the best!!! Thank you for sharing this with all of us.❤Barb

Thank you for sharing your wonderful faith and of course we will be here going forward. Much love and blessings to you and Ernie ❤

That's life. All the ups and downs.The Lord will lead your footsteps just take time to listen to him and he will never lead you wrong. Trust him always. Love your home show. We'll be waiting for your next adventure.

We don't always get what we want and sometimes that is a blessing.

I completely understand and everything does happen for a reason and wasn’t the right time for now- I’m a firm believer in that and wishing you well - try to stay cool, it’s just too hot now or should I say the humidity is way too high! I can’t for your next video

God is always right

Greater is coming Anna …and we here to celebrate along with you guys!! God bless❤️

Oh Anna I am so sorry it didn’t work out. Ernie was correct on not sharing too early. I am totally aware of the “push back”! We encountered this & are much better off now because of it. I truly believe you are where you’re meant to be.

Thanks for sharing. You are very blessed but I’m sure it was also a bit disappointing. I’m sure it will happen when it’s meant to be.

🙏👍

Hello Anna, I'm sorry the deal did not go through. However you both tried that's what matters. Been there Anna as a homeowner I understand what you mean, we've been there and are kind of in the same situation now.. making decisions if we should sell and move now that my husband is recently retired. I know you and Erine would've been amazing at the B & B but things happen for a reason, and God knows why❤ no need to feel embarrassed. You we're excited to share the news. You are blessed 🙌 🌷☀️

God bless you and Ernie.

God bless you for your faith! I am a strong believer and absolutely know that when God closes a door He always opens another. I love your acceptance of His Will. Just keep praying! 🙏🙏🙏💐🌺🌷🌻

God plan is not always our plan But he knows when to open the doors of our desires It will work out for ur good!!❤❤❤

You must always follow what God tells you to do. If you do that you will never fail. I am so glad that you guys have a personal relationship with God. Just another reason I love you so much. I am so excited to see whatGod does have in store for the two of you❤️

Anna and Ernie, God is good.

❤Hi Anna, Heartbreaking, but fulfilling! God opens and closes doors everyday! So happy, that you are happy about how it turned out! You are both so sweet and thank you for letting God open the doors! The Real estate market is so different now, especially with a business. You did not eat Crow, you were just excited! We will support both you and Ernie!

Isn’t God wonderful how he watches over us and guides us. He knows you and Ernie would be awesome B&B owners but right now He has other plans for the two of you. I know you know there’s something bigger God has planned for Ernie and you his faithful servants. It will be exciting waiting to see what God has in store because He always goes BIG with his plans and surpasses any dreams we would dream up. God is good and we can always trust Him to lead us down the right path. God knows your hearts Anna and His timing is not our timing. I look forward to your upcoming videos. ❤️

We are blessed to be apart of your journey....❤❤❤

I love how you are so bold in letting us know how good our God is in leading where He wants us to go! So many lessons learned along the way and what a testimony in your faith to share with others the struggles we all face! Jeremiah 29.11

Not disappointed at all! The peace of following Jesus is glowing on your face. Who knows? Someone might have needed to witness it to help strengthen their faith. I know it was encouraging for me. 😊💛😊

I love your content as it is ❤️ don’t stop 😊 God is good all the time 🙏🏽 it wasn’t meant to be ☺️ excited about the new bunk room 😎

God does work in mysterious ways!! You definitely don't have anything to be embarrassed about. My hubby and I have been praying and trying to decide if he should retire this year too, keeping our faith that he will guide us in the right direction 🙏

Oh Anna I feel bad you lost out on a lovely project you and Ernie were so happy to have happen. Like you said, God opens doors for us to learn from. To be honest I am happy watching all you put out. Looking forward to all the Florida content and all the new projects coming up in your beautiful home.

You listened to your heart and made the right decision for you and Ernie. Always trust God, you are where you are supposed to be. I think I told you my husband is a Residential Contractor, well I also worked for a Commercial Contractor and I can tell you firsthand they are two totally different worlds and then some. No disappointment here, keep being you and doing what you are led to do. Your home is beautiful and you should be proud where you are. Love you friend 🫶🏻

Thank you for sharing this journey with us. Not everything always goes as we expect, but things almost always have a way of working out for the better.

Thank you so much for your videos! This video was a wonderful way to show how to live out your Faith! Can't wait for what is to come, 🙂. Thanks Anna❤

I understand 100%. Thanks for sharing.

I love your faith!!! I know God has something magnificent in store for the two of you! Looking forward to seeing more of from you!

God is so good when He protects us.❤

You're still my fav!

Thank you for sharing your faith. God always has a plan and purpose for our lives. Closed doors can be disappointing, but God orders our steps. Greater and better things are ahead. I love your content and will continue to watch to see what you do in the future.

You are a class act. It is comforting to hear that in life we all have trials that we go through even the best of the best which you are. My favorite channel for this very reason both temporally and spiritually.

🥰. We are still here! Would like to see you do some cooking videos, please! 🙏🏻
