    Joel, to borrow a phrase that you often use, this video was "Good stuff". Great to hear that Petey has a job now, but we will miss him. Hopefully he can still put in a cameo appearance from time to time. And much respect to Gavin for doing volunteer work as well as working at the stable and now editing. Thanks for all of the info. KZread is a funny place where we all want to know anything and everything about people we have never met and probably never will! And it seems a little bit like your family tree is more of a wreath when it comes to all the veggie girls lol.

    Great video. Excellent family explanation. I finally got where Tracy came from. And Gavin, my husband and I are soooooo proud of you. 😉 Our horses are just two big dogs. My husband mainly takes care of them (really all the time) and they are fun to watch. His horse Hero likes to rest his head on his shoulder but standing from behind as if they were both looking at the same thing. My daughter's horse Precious (he was thought to be female when born/ don't ask) likes to sneak up from behind and nudge his head under your arm, as if asking for a hug. We call he "Snap Shot the Third", not camera shy at all. They are both geldings. They don't like the vet, but love their farrier.

    Absolutely LOVED the family tree! It made everything so much more clear. I think Timothy and Tyler are the only names I'm not that familiar with. The Veggie Girls lines at the end of the video had me cracking up. When I heard most of them are from Florida it also made me laugh. I live in Florida and I can see why they'd want to get away from the heat down here. I'm sure they all saw how wonderful the Ochs family was and found it easy to fall in love with the boys. Who wouldn't want a family like that? I wish Petey all the best with his new job! Gavin's doing a great job with the videos. =) When I was in my 20s, I always felt my Red horse showed his love through respect. He was a REALLY spooky horse, especially when he got in a field, but when it came down to brass tacks all of the sudden he'd be 100%. I remember going on a trail ride where they were digging a huge gas thing in the woods that was like 5 floors deep. The trail was right on the edge of the ditch and while everyone else got off their horses and walked them by it, I was the only one who knew at the time that my spooky horse had it under control. I crossed by it without incident and didn't have to get off my horse. He was 16+ hands and I was 5'3" so it was a bit of a thing to get up and down on him on the trail. We had an incredibly strong connection. When he would see my car pull up in the parking lot, he'd actually come down from the pasture and I had no problem at all grooming him, cleaning his hoofs, etc. God, he was a good horse. Even 40 years later I miss him dearly.

    I really do appreciate the family tree. And the horse affection question. Your future children should you choose to have children will be "Double Cousins"with Andrew's children. Which is kind of cool. And about pets showing affection, I once went on a trip. And when I came back and anxiously picked up my dog, Maggie Mae, from the boarder, she did something special. When we got home and I let her out of the truck, she leaned up against my legs. It felt just like a hug to me. Pets are amazing.

    Thank you Joel, Magan and Gavin for answering all the questions. I know it hangs a lot of people up on how the wives are all related or friends from Florida. Horses love to be patted. They like their heads rub or behind their ears. My horse liked it when I would huge her neck and talk to her.

Well done for earning pocket money when you were young. I am glad that Petie found a job, wishing him luck with that. Where does Aunt Beckie fit in? April's Sister? Isn't April normally known as Mimi. I did not see the call for questions. How close are you and Andrew in age, were you ever in the same class in school?
