This only works if you live far away from military conflicts where people help you to live a minimalist lifestyle by setting your house on fire and you lose all of your belongings, memories and that cup from a far away country collecting dust because you never used it. But if you're lucky, they won't help you managing your family easier by killing your husband and children.

Lou is really an inspiration even to us old timers.

Watching your property grow and evolve and watching your family grow along with that is inspiring ❤

You could use your beautiful bird sounds in the background of your relaxing videos because they sound amazing

I stopped following you all when you bought a dog from a breeder because that pretty much proved where your actual morals lie. You guys do whatever gives you money. Pathetic.

Our family has had quite the transformation as well. We had our first baby, then a few months later my husband graduated college and got a new job that took us 1500 miles away from home. It’s been an adventure!

Levels work great

Loving this ❤ So proud of you Dana!

This has been a hard uear for me. I feel like I am in constant survival and have lost track of who I want to be. I have actually had a hard 2 years. In the rough parts there is so much beauty but I am actually really struggling. I hope that things start shifting for me too. I am so happy that things are moving easier for you. ❤️

Missed y'all, glad for the update. Happy mother's day to you. You are a beautiful and wonderful mother. Lou is the hardest working man on the RUclips TV. Max is going to be a smart, well mannered , and happy child. Bless you and your beautiful family. 💪👍🙏⭐💛👏

I'm just watching your video you had to take everything off your bed and put it on the floor. Before you tackle your closet clothing. Why didn't you organize and go through everything on your bed before you tackle your closet when is that it made more sense. So how far did you actually get on this decluttering by listening konmari method?

If it gives you joy, keep it! That includes things that spark memories.

Lou, don't carry too much of heavy stuff on your own....my husband did that, and it's been bad for his back ;) Dana, thank you for the update. My experience of having been a mom for 15 years. I am amazed how fast time flies every kids' birthday and the day of the labour will always be there right after that 😂 Have a nice birthday with your beautiful boy 🎉

I just started following you when you got the containers. I recently saw your NY videos from 6 or 7 years ago. The look in your eyes then and now is so interesting. The one constant is the kindness I see in both your eyes which is what makes you such wonderful parents.

I also moved into my tiny house log cabin last summer and it was a lot of work with sewer and stuff since I am not very handy…..and I also focused on the inside of our cabin and now I feel like I am ready to expend and I want to start my veggie garden and my little dandelion is turning 7!!!!!!

Dana I don't know if you remember this, but we were on a group zoom call when you and Lou were in Hawaii and I said that in a month you'll be building an off grid living situation and you guys said nnahh. Hahahaha look at you now. It wasn't a month, but it feels just as fast. :-) - Essence F

What a sweet childhood Max has ❤️

Thanks, Amy! I appreciate the support. I’m doing well and feel so grateful for my new job, apartment and the house renovation project. It’s all been a lot at once, but I’m taking it step by step and know that everything will work out and I am growing. 😊

Max. It's your Birthday. From Craig. UK. Nice garlic!

Dana, your family and way of life have so inspired me to live in the moment! Be ever more present! LIVE CREATIVELY! I just turned 46 in April. My son graduates from high school this year and my daughter, next year. Not knowing what he wants to do yet, we have encouraged him to put off college and slow down, get a job and acquire more "life tools" for his tool belt. He is an avid gardener, writer, an artist, actor and singer, sensitive to injustices in the world and the friends in his life... He is bursting with untapped potential. I have always told him that his life is a book and he alone gets to write the chapters in it. Being a Mom for him and his sister have been the best gift and privilege and the accumulation of my life's work. I am excited for what lies ahead for everyone I call Home. So many changes are coming for everyone in the family. My husband and I celebrate our 22nd Anniversary this Fall. What will the two of us look like when the kids have left? Will our daughter follow her college-forward dreams of becoming the professional she has always wanted? Will she find a new passion? Will I return to photography? My various forms of art? Will Hubby keep writing around his day job hours? Oh, how I long to see him pick up his guitar once again, allowing me to sing to him not only plucking his guitar's, but my heart's strings as well! So much on the horizon and right here in front of me. Life can be hard, and has been, but right now, Life is Good! ❤ Forever grateful for what we have.

Yo and Lou and Max have suc a beautiful pices of land. The transitions are wonderful stepping stones to a 'wider opening'. I look forward to what summertime holds for You Three ~ ! 💚 Your garden will be beautiful and inspiring !💛

Best decluttering vlog ever!!

Happy Mother's Day 💐 Happy Birthday Max

Thank you for asking :) for me spring is always the time when I start new, make changes and grow so we're on the same page. At 40 I decided to change my life around starting with a new career and studies. It feels amazing. I'm having so much fun and feel alive again. ❤

Great update! Have you considered doing one of those recap videos like "Everything we accomplished in Year One"! (like Project Kamp <3) I'd watch a massive supercut like 45 minutes from start to end of this adventure

Have you fixed the smoke filling the room yet? Sounds like it can't get air, so it sucks back down. They suggest a small hole under the stove to creat an updraft inside. Good luck.

proud of you guys, im curious where is it you bought land?

It’s always so fun to reflect during milestones like this. Your family has endured so much over the past two years. Can’t wait to see the playground project and the garden thrive this year!

Happy Mother’s Day Dana! You’re such a wonderful mother! ❤ Happy Birthday Max! 🎉

So lovely to see you all thriving. It feels like just yesterday that you two were teaching yourselves how to build a van, and then navigate open waters. You always plant deep seeds, and it's so beautiful to see you blossom.

Happy Mothers Day, Hon! Love ya!❤

I see you had stitches on your knee? Looks all good and healed. You three are doing great. Happy Mother’s Day’s.

A really beautiful narration and summation of your year, your two years :) I can't believe it's been TWO years since Max and all that has occured. Love following you guys and hearing and seeing your projects, and seeing your growth in every direction, as individuals and as a family... and you share it so articulately and beautifully. Look forward to whatever is next! Lots of love to you guys!! ❤❤❤❤❤

Loved this video! You really have been hundreds of new selves thru the past two years. 😊 Max is so adorable, and what a great life for a kid. I kind of wish I was Max lol. Do you think yall will have more children? I'm a nosy Parker for sure but I loved having babies so much. I'm also so very excited to see your plans for a house develop. What a journey!!

Oh my goodness!!! Max in that hat! Soooo cute!!!😍

Love this video. A year can change everything! This time last year I was struggling with the most difficult season of my business, and our house desperately needed a new roof and a lot of other repairs. Now, I am 39 weeks pregnant with my first baby, we have a brand new roof and are working on finishing out our kitchen this week. Life is so good and I am so thankful. I always enter a season of reflection in the spring. It doesn’t make sense to me that the year begins in January. I think it should begin in April!

what a really nice couple you are. there is kindness. thats so nice.

It's refreshing to hear you talk about not only the highs but also the lows and the learning moments you have all had in the past two years. For watchers like myself, a lot of times we only see the positive and clean. But life happens to everyone and things don't always turn out how we expect. I love watching this channel and love seeing this family grows and overcomes! Thank you for sharing your lives with us!

I really hope the property agent watches your videos! You really make your dreams happen - your video on grit often comes to mind. Nothing lucky or easy just hard work, patience, vision and emotional maturity. Max is adorable with his hose. He’s a complete little human with such a wonderful set up behind him and ahead of him. His blue hat is cute. Warmest wishes x

I love your positivity and authenticity and seeing your progress . You guys are amazing parents. Happy Mother’s Day !

I appreciate your prompt to think about how far I’ve come in the past year. A year ago today my Dad died (his choice after choosing to fast to end his life after many months of struggle and decline in health) just after I had moved to a new state for a new job. I am also developing a piece of property, turning a formerly unfinished garage into a small home with the help of a varietyof local contractors. I wish I could do more of it myself, but in my situation, I need to keep working. Still I am very grateful to keep plugging along on the project which is, as so often happens, taking much longer than one would hope! Anyway, it’s fun to see your story unfold. Peace to you as it continues.😊

Happy Mother's Day - Cheers

Happy Mother’s Day!

I agree 100% that springs seems like a more logical time to reflect, in part because everything seems possible. For me, a year ago I was contemplating stopping work and turning the page to a less structured life ( still trying to decide if I cut the cord on my volunteer non profit work). This will be the second time I attempt this as I retired 12 years ago but quickly filled my life up with paying and volunteer jobs. Now, like you as I reflect I want more time for fun, creative projects, familly and travel so I have started lining through things that don't fill me with joy. Your videos always strike just the right tone, raise just the right questions to help all of us continue to grow as individuals. Love you guys and so very proud of how far you have come and can not wait to see where you will go. Sending lots of love

cool

Happy Mothers Day! Just got one question: Where's the doggo??

Congratulations on your homestead improvements. Every step of the journey IS the Journey. 😊❤

Happy Mother's Day Dana! So much renewal this year it's wonderful. I find the foraging really informative! Enjoy it all!!

Always excited to see the weeks video to see where you have come on the land.I loved the overview. I assume that water lake thingy was already there? Nice.
