🔷 ABOUT US 🔷
We're a DIY family building our "forever homestead" from 15 acres of raw undeveloped land in Tennessee. All of our content is family friendly and safe for everyone to enjoy.
In today's video we begin building our new 12 x 10 free standing deck on the back of our 1988 Palm Harbor Single Wide Mobile Home. The first step is to layout our string lines and dig footers for our foundation. We are using 12" concrete tube forms (sometimes called sono tubes) for our footers and j-bolts for our post anchors. Let's go!

Agree 💯
I was so pleased to see that when your son made the suggestion to use the box cutter, not only did you acknowledge that was a good idea you praised him for it.. Letting them help is so fun to see because they want to feel helpful as well. Your teaching them things and making memories that will last their whole life! How refreshing to see the boys outside using their imaginations and helping mom and dad, instead of being inside playing video games as most kids are these days! I'm a single mom of 2 boys myself and watching your family is Awesome!! Keep up the good work folks 😄😉
I hope people in other countries watch your videos cuz they will see what regular normal Americans are really like. Not the fake people and bad behavior that is on tv and tic tok. I’m proud to show off your family to the world. God bless.
Your youngest is so creative!
It's so good to see kids being kids playing outside and being so creative with the boxes and stacking the rocks. Bravo! 💝🙏🏼
Your boys are such quick studies, they'll be building their own homesteads one day, thanks to Mom and Dad!!
The boys were such great helpers
You are a lucky man. I would never get away with saying that was Mommy's job! LOL
Love these building videos you do. Been there done that over 25 yrs ago. But i enjoy seeing others do it today. Brings back memories. Nice to see the kids playing, using their imagination making things out of what is around the house. To many kids today lack imagination, because they have cellphones and computers. Your doing the parenting thing the right way.
I like the close up videography and the lack of background music. Being able to see your work clearly and being able to hear natural concrete work sounds adds realism to your video. It makes me feel like I'm right there with you.
Can’t wait. I just forwarded to my son and daughter-in-law (they just bought them an acre) now they want to build a deck. I was a single parent and my son had no help from me using a hammer or anything. He is 34 and his girl is too. I love them and proud. They are fans of you guys too. Keep schooling us all and thank you :) God bless
Good to see the boys working with you and having play breaks, your feral children are just delightful. Once again i have to say your bloopers make me laugh every time, you both have a great sense of humour, I love it.

Thanks 👍
Boxman stole the show. I loved when he showed us how he can use his sword lol.
Love that your boys are so eager to learn I think a lot of families today don't teach things like this to their kids they just pay someone else to do it while the kids play on their phones
Love the channel and the involvement of the family I know your children will remember this for a long time.
I see family stepping stones in the near future. One for each of you to decorate the yard/garden with.
Oh Snap!!!! Box Guy got a sword!!! Let’s gooo!!!! Best part of the video! And yes. Great video. Thanks for posting I know what I want to do now 🙏🏼
I really love the way y’all let your children take part
What a great no man! What a big help big brother is. Love how you let the boys help. Reminds me of my dad when he built my grandmas house and poured the huge driveway. He took the time to show and tell me how to do the cement.
Angela i can just picture all the colorful flowers dressing up your deck. Bet you cant wait either.
Teaching your children how to do things is a huge gift. So great to watch.
It's nice seeing the progress in steps! I love how you let the boys help and how you are teaching them at the same time. And let's hear it for "box man"!!!!!

Thanks so much!
I love the box man costume he made. Your kids have a great imagination.
I just love 'Box Man' reminds me of Legos when he made the cut out for the sword.
The entire videos are great but the bloopers are priceless!! It shows real life challenges :)
Need to have the boys put in a time capsule inside the cement some where when they are older they can dig it out for the next generation to add to. A piece of pvc pipe with plugs on both ends work well. Did it for my kids
You all know how to do everything! I love watching you all. I have learned a lot from you all. The boys are learning so much as you all do the work-no matter what it is. The boys are hilarious too! They have great imaginations! Good job everyone!
Your place is coming along nicely. It's so good to see you including the boys with your footing pour of concrete. By including them it becomes their house to. With explanations they are really good helpers. Thanks for sharing! Hopefully your weight together and won't be too terribly much longer.
Your wife is such a great worker, you both work together well.
Love your videos and enjoy watching them every time they come on. May the Lord bless you and your family. It's going to be great to see you and your family in your home

Thank you so much!
Love the bloopers ! Love how you all work together as a team . Sam you are very patient with the boys.
It's looking super. It's also nice to see the boys having a go at trying things and learning to help out.
Your kids are so adorable they play and help you guys they are not playing video game. 👍🏻❤️
Hello sweet people!! I see the Samgela team are hard at work as usual!!
Box man was using his imagination. Well done.
Box boy is stealing the show. Lol
It's good to see you teach your children about work!!
When my dad poured concrete, he always had us kids run the hose over it every so often to keep it cool and damp. 👍🙂 I think my deck is 10' or 12' by 15' and I LOVE how spacious it is!
Love ❤️ you guys!!!! I wish I was still young!!!
Love the construction home schooling nothing like real world science in action!
I had to laugh at the contractor joke. My dad used to say every job needs a foreman.
Love your bloopers!
Omg, I was drinking coffee and almost spit it out when you said “show sharting it” in the bloopers! 🤣😂
Wow, your boys are smart. Box guy made a weapon holder and box cutter guy opened the bags of cement. You all work well together!
Hello Sam and Angela and kids. Great video. Love watching yall videos. We call them concrete tubes. That there name. Yall doing great work.
Looking so good, all of it. You have endured a very hot summer I do not envy you guys. We have had temps above 100 and I just can't imagine doing that physical labor out in it. Your boys are going to grow up fine young men and knowing the value of respect and hard work and love for others.
Footers are so much work, but you all did it!!! Sam have you ever seen the skid steer auger for footers. It is adjustable for diameter, has depth gauge lines then bells out at the bottom for a footer that will not heave. Watched R&R Builders use one a couple years ago.
Love watching your boys. Oh, you’re doing great, too!
Sam and Angela. I wanted to say thank you for showing those little things you can put your wires in. My brother watched your video and bought some and he said it made it so easy.

That is awesome!
Boys are doing great hands on work. Loved box man with sword. Big deck on back you will enjoy it. Loved the video as usual. Your content is really good.
Your boys are adorable!! Love watching you make progress on your home/homestead.
I love it. Some of the absolutely best videos on KZread.
Glad you are building a large deck. You will love it. Can’t believe how big the boys are getting, so fast! I love seeing their creative play and helping with projects, etc.
Love how your boys are boys….using their creative minds playing…….box boy ❤️
DUDE I AM SOOOOOOOOOOOO OUTSTANDINGLY VERY PROUD OF YOU FOR TEACHING YOUR KIDS THINGS THAT OTHER PARENTS WOULD NOT EVEN TEACH THEIR KIDS MUCH OF ANYTHING... I KNOW A FEW PARENTS THAT DONT TEACH THEIR KINDS NOTHING THEIR TOO BUSY TRYING TO MAKE THAT GOD ALMIGHTY DOLLAR.. AN THEIR KIDS TURNED OUT TO BE HOODLAMS AN RUN THE STREET... GODS BLESSING YOU EVERY TIME YOU MAKE THE TIME TO TEACH THEM SOMETHING... I HAVE LOADS OF TEARS WHEN EVER I SEE A PARENT TRING TO MAKE SOMETHING OF THEIR KIDS INSTEAD OF LETTIN UM RUN WILD LIKE AN ANIMAL... BLESSINGS & BE HOPE FILLED FRANKI 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
I’m enjoying being able to see every thing you guys do to get back in the house. Thanks for always sharing. Nice to see the boys. Box man and his sword holder, that was cool. Your boys know more about diy than I do and I’m old lol
Near the beginning when Sam was talking, I was watching Isaac through the window make his way out of the front door wearing his boxes. I'm telling you, he melts my heart!! Then the smart one in the family comes up with the knife to cut open the concrete bags and said "I thought we could use this". I love when the boys get involved with the projects. They are learning a lot besides making memories that they can some day tell their children about and pass on to them while having them help with projects. Looking forward to the next video. Great job you guys (especially Angela with her OSHA approved shoes!!).
So awesome watching the kids learning how to do helping things with you guys in the homestead build and remodeling , 😊👍💕💕💕
Oh the shot across the dirt at the holes !! looks like the game with the gophers.. and trying to bop them on the head as they peek up. hahahahaa. Well it let's you know the holes are lined up nicely., So excited about the deck.. it is going to be so nice to be able to sit out back without going all the way outside. Coffee in the early morning.. aaaah.. Happy for you guys! Great job!!
It amazes me what you two and your ferals are able to accomplish. You are both skilled, knowledgeable, and incredibly hard working. The kids want to learn and actually pay attention and follow through. Angela, you do such a good job mixing the cement and make it look easy. You have made a great start on your back deck. Congratulations and wishing you further success. Bless you all.
The crappy and not so fun part done and now to the fun part. Looking good and cool that u teach ur sons about building.
Good Morning Sam Angela & Boys,got here as fast as I could.I am just amazed at all you have gotten done.Love your channel & have learned a lot.Take care & have a great week.🌷💕🌷
Your boys are blessed to have parents that teach them very important life skills. Your family impresses me all the time. ❤
Everthing is looking great, y'alls boys are as cute as can be, my grandsons are like your boys, give them a empty boxs they have hours of fun, God bless you guys and your boys..
Love your young son’s imagination! Also love the older son’s helpful advice! Raising great children there!
Was so happy to see you teaching both boys how to do the cement work! So often I have seen parents teaching the oldest, neglecting the younger. Great job parents!!!

That's something I've been trying (and need to keep trying) to notice and fix... so often Elijah is eager to help and work while Isaac would rather play. He misses out on things that way, so I'm trying to encourage him to help me too -- not force, but encourage as "us time". :)
You guys are the best,teaching the boys along the way ,alot of parents would say they are too young,or just not want to bother 😉
Sam ,I'm thinking I'd of used the tractor bucket to mix up and move that concrete instead of that wheelbarrow

We don't have a tractor bucket, but that would work too
PS I love how you have fun while you work… I am grateful I was raised that way too!
I've become so obsessed with this channel every since I stumbled across it a few months ago. This is my 1st time catching a live from them and I can't wait. Snacks and drink (diet Pepsi) on deck 😅

So fun watching your progress! Love those boys 🥰🥰🥰
Box an your outfit is amazing. Elijah really wants to learn, great job.
Great job with all the family 👍🏼❤️🇨🇦😉
Great STUFF again!!! One thing I am concerned about and I dont blame Angela. The cement is not wanting for water! No slump. CHEERS from HERE
Thanks for the up close & detailed installation instructions. I've never done those & most people skip them.
That cement footing is level ha ha
Love those precious boys! Love your teaching!
I became super emotional, when you were showing your son how to trowel the top of the post. You are so genuinely good with your children. I know in my heart it's not an act for the camera. I wish my children had a father like you. It is a joy to watch you and your family. Angela, you are wonderful, too!
Box guy reminds me of lego guy
You two are awesome parents, including the boys... Love your videos...❤❤❤
You folks crack me up, love your channel, the boys are awesome 👏👏👏
Great job! Love how fast Elijah learn3d. He had a great teacher too. Loved how everyone works together
I’m really enjoying your renovation and patio build. Looking forward to the completion of your home. Love seeing you teaching the boys how to build things. They are just adorable.
Hi Sam & Angela Great video As always, very entertaining and informative. But, glad you get to do all the work and we just watch 😄 Glad you're going to have a bigger deck at the back of the trailer. Can't wait to see it finished. Wishing everyone the best Stay strong and safe
Always love the bloopers! 😄👍💕💕💕
Goid job, family.
It’s going to be an awesome deck, I can’t wait to see it finished.
Thank you for another great video. Really love your family.
At the rate you're going it won't be long before you can be in your beautiful place so so happy for you ❤️
Love the Concrete tombs and OSHA approved footwear. Another awesome video and learning experience.
Angela, "I don't want to see that!" I totally laughed out loud! Great job, loved seeing the feral children helping out and learning a thing or two!
Big deck. Wow. Take care and be blessed,
Good afternoon Sam and Angela , from a very hot and humid Newcastle upon Tyne , its about 28c here .so glad im inside watching you .
👍👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ hey....there was some shots before the mower ate your somebrero........love those birds a singing❤️❤️❤️❤️👍👍
Box man to the rescue! The surface tension explanation was perfect, he will never forget it as he physically dealt with it.
When we put in those tubes, we partially inserted maybe 10 long deck screws around the outside at different angles. We had clay soil so the idea that once we back filled the hole- those screws would provide more stay power. (?) Lol.
I love how you are teaching your boys. That is so awesome
That deck is going to be so well used and loved! Can't wait for your next video!!!
