Jazper taking his rig off road! He’s been very helpful overseeing the dirt transportation from this pile into the bags of his future home. An all new episode of Jared & Bree’s home build coming your way tomorrow! We also reveal just what Loriann’s answer was to Bryson’s important question👀
Today we celebrate and appreciate our great American veterans. We are proud to have several in our family. We’d like to highlight Grandpa Roy (Gary’s Dad) who served in the Korean and Vietnam wars, Jamison (Gary’s Nephew) who was in Operation Desert Storm and Holly (Gary’s Niece) 2nd Lieutenant Air Force.
Thank you to all our great Vets. You keep our great nation free🇺🇸
1st picture is Grandpa Roy. 2nd picture is Gary’s Niece and Nephews starting to the left Holly, Kyle and Jamison.
Our new garden is producing wonderfully😊 One of our top crops are these tomatoes bursting with flavor! We keep trying to find dishes we can use them in which is fairly easy. We love tomatoes ha
What grew best in your garden? :)

A decision has been made on Bree & Jared’s family tree. Thanks for your input!😊
Still not sure what we should do once the bark is removed. Bug killer? Tung oil? Both? Neither? It’ll be sanded back when the house is up for the official finish.
What would you do?
Sometimes a setback forces you into the project you always needed to tackle. When nature remodeled our hoop barn under a mountain of snow, we knew a real workshop was in our future, even if it felt miles away at the time.
Looking at where the build stands today compared to where it began is surreal. Hard to believe this photo is taken in the same spot. Huge thanks to everyone who's been cheering us on, giving advice, and watching every layer and panel come together. It's not done yet but it's coming along nicely!
Have you had a project disaster that ended up turning into something way better?👀

Evening on our homestead is a peaceful time. Awhile back we installed these lights around the courtyard and we absolutely love them. They make the backyard feel magical once the sun goes down😊
Do you have any lights or little touches that make your outdoor space feel special in the evening?

The rain left just enough moisture on the cactus in Mom’s courtyard. It’s the perfect kind of day to get some work done around the homestead! It’s not too hot, ground soft enough to dig, and the day is shaping up to be a good one😊
How are your projects coming along?
How many cats are there?👀
Our barn cats get along wonderfully. Somewhere in the pile is Dan, one of our favorites who is a good uncle to the rest xD
We will like the comments with the correct number👍

We got a good soaking rain over the weekend, just what the ground needed. The berm and trees look happy, and the puddles are already starting to soak in. These storms always make the homestead feel a little fresher.
How’s the weather treating you where you are?👀

We’re taking on the biggest challenge yet on the earthbag workshop build: reaching the roof line on the tallest and longest wall! Can we close the final gap and complete this huge milestone? Watch along as the family pushes to the very top. Thank you so much for and cheering us on along the way. We hope you enjoy the episode!
Thank you and we'll see you next week! :D

Jazper picked out his first pumpkin on a trip to the patch! The whole family gathered to find the perfect pumpkin and tackle the corn maze. We won’t mention that a chunk of the family attempted the hardest maze and got a little stuck in the rain xD It was a day full of great memories!
Do you have any favorite fall traditions?
It’s #NationalCatDay! We have a few little black cats that adore hanging out with us while we have our morning coffee on the porch. They follow Jazper around and play with everything he plays with. He loves his kitties and they adore him. They are very entertaining to watch xD
We’d love to meet your kitty! Drop a picture in the comments or tag us 👀 What’s your cat’s favorite thing to do in the morning?

Finding the Perfect Tree Post for our Home!
We still can't believe how great it's all coming together :)
Can you guess where this door leads in our workshop? It was hand painted by Bree and Jared and meant to look like an industrial bunker door.
(If you said the restroom, you’d be correct! We thought we were so clever with that sign 😂)
Would you have guessed it, or did the toilet paper triangle give it away?
We used references from video games, namely I think Rust? Is that a game? I’ve heard of it but never played.
I’ll drop the full video in case you’re interested in seeing it all come together :) youtu.be/J0LJD6fOsOA?is=HPso…
