What I really want to know is if Ellie is going to wear her old white wedding dress, now turned new green party dress to Bree's wedding!

Garen, watching your ingenuity and seeing your creative solution to the step in and out of the van, all I could say was "what a brilliant man, his parents have to be so proud of him" but seriously, I suspect Gary and Shelly are super proud of all of you kids. Keep on doing such awesome work!

The van is looking really good. Also, the garden looks good, the goats look good, the girls look wonderful. You are truly a blessed family.

I just wanted to say that I'll be praying everything goes well tomorrow and that you all enjoy the wedding.

Ummm can we all give a round of applause for the rolling kiddie pool!?! Creative parents, raising happy kids, who will grow up being creative. It’s a poetic adventure of a lifetime, and I am here for it!

Love the mobile swimming pool. Hope you all have a lovely wedding day tomorrow!

Ellie is a trooper, she looks a bit tired, I would be with those young ones.

I thought so too, then I thought, .....is she? Are they trying for another new wonderful friend? If any family with which I am familiar with SHOULD, it is Garen and Ellie.

I absolutely love how Garen and Ellie work together n include the little ones. The finish outcome on every project is always to the highest standard. (Love the mobile pool)

That van is just gorgeous now. Really smart how the step was fixed up. Loved seeing Azalea in the water wagon and Kingsley sure is growing! You are all going to have such amazing times in that van as a family!

The van looks beautiful. Can't wait for the wedding highlights.

Garen you and wife are so talented. Great team work

Watching everyone find solutions to all the different problems across this growing family is awesome.

Things I didnt know that I needed in my life: pool on wheelz!!🤯🤯🤪😀👍

Another great video. The lighting looks incredible and the reverse step design is great. I know it might be the elephant, or is a giraffe, in the room but what happened to Ellie’s knee? The ceiling trim swap out turned out awesome. The old trim was OK but why stop 2 feet before the finish line/ you would have always been making excuses for it if you didn’t change it out. Really looking forward to the first camping trip/excursion. The wedding is happening and I am sure that everyone is excited. Have a great party weekend and looking forward to next weeks highlights. Thanks for sharing!

If you can find one. They make a power step that comes down when the doors are opened then retracts when not needed.

I like better the wood slats you replaced on the cealing.love the lights. What a brilliant idea to just turn over the old step and re weld it.

Oh wow! I would’ve never thought of cutting that out and turning the step around like that! That is a very cool idea. The lighting looks great, and the veins in the ceiling look better too. Can’t wait to see some of the highlights of the wedding! Y’all are gonna have so much fun camping in that. Blessings and take care!

Wonderful episode Ellie and Garen - Best to the re-fabbed Van and its travels. And VERY Best to Bree and Jared!!!!!

That step flip was genius! The lights and the replaced ceiling strips looks amazing too. Seems like not too much more to finish off before you guys can be off on adventures too :)

Nice job and the new strips are much better on the ceiling. We watched Garen cut the floor and flip it over for the step and all three of us (we watch as a family now!) said "Well that's just brilliant!" "It's like it was made for it!" Yes, we are a punny family too! 😁 Blessings for a lovely day for Bree and Jared!

You two are awesome you have created quite a beautiful family

Wishing all the family a blessed day tomorrow for the wedding 🙏

AMEN. BLESSINGS TO THE NEW WEDDED COUPLE on MAY 17, 2021! Times are tough and marriage isn't easy, but I am betting on my girl Bree to keep everything in balance and new! The basics....keep him appreciating everything about wedded bliss ...... Bree has a great sense of humor and that is what it takes in my own long marriage to keep everyone smiling and I bet Bree uses her wonderful feminine ways to do the same. Big hugs to the whole family!

Garen and Ellie have done a great job of converting the van. Love the reclaimed wood design they used. Azalea is so very cute and quite the little helper keep going with your children the way you are raising them is great . Love watching her do things she is super cute.

💕 Lovin the van redo! & that portable wagon pool! Great idea Ellie! ???-Any ideas of redoing the outpost..i.e..adding the grandbabies & Jared? Congrats on everything happenin right now! Lookin forward to the wedding highlites! Don't forget (if you are into the 'traditional' things) something old..new..borrowed & blue. ✌️💕🌈

I know a guy who has a metal building sort if like Garen's, but it is three sided, open down a long side. He has a camper, a boat, a couple of snowmobiles, a little tractor, some motorbikes, lawnmowers, a little shop stall, etc in there, and it used to be noisy with birds just like Garen's is. The noises didn't bother him so much as poop all over his toys and tools did. He put some plastic owls in there, one on each end inside, and that helped a lot. He then became a collector, he has owl posters, owl pictures, balls with owl eyes, little owl Knick knacks, stuffed teddy bear style owls, everything owl art I can think of. He has 0 poopy birds in his shed now -- they're still around, they just hang out in other buildings at his farm. Once in a while, he says, he'll see a new bird fly in while he's working in there, and then frantically U-turn to escape it's owl nightmare🤣

The van is looking Sharp your doing a great job i would have never thought of doing that on the step.

Watching Azaleah grow puts a smile on my face and the wagon/pool was genius. You don't have to share your children with the public, so thanks.

Good job you guys. It looks amazing. I wouldn't hesitate to buy a van rebuild from Team Garen and Ellie.

Did you know that you could turn that peice you cut out of the van around like that? Ingenius! So clever and the lighting is beautiful ❤

I think you all are celebrating at this moment. Congratulations Brea and Jared! May you have as good a marriage as the others in your family we’ve seen so far.

Love watching you guys make your van yours. It's so much nicer with your own touches. More like a mini home than a run of the mill van. Great job by the both of you. Love watching your daughter in her mini pool.

So fun to watch your family work together and make such a cool little camper. I'm sure the whole family will be able to enjoy it and make lots of memories.

Great job, Garen and Ellie!

Lights really changed the interior of the van G&E! Looks great! I wasn't really sold on the pallet-wood interior at first but I'm a believer now that it's all together!

Nice van. Great job with the exit Ellie. I really like the music.

It's looking better and better, and the step fix was brilliant. I'd have never thought of cutting it out and turning it over. I'd have been trying to fabricate some complete new step...lol Great job! Hug those adorable squishies for all of us. :D

Love Azalea's portable pool! Great thinking! Those strip lights gave off allot more light than I would have expected!

I LOVE ME SOME G&E... I LOVE ELLY IS GETTING MORE CONFIDENT IN THE CAMERA EACH EPISODE... YOUR AMAZINGGGG

The Van is coming together nicely 👌. Your children are so Dang Adorable 😍

We put those strip lights under our kitchen cabinets. Absolutely love them. I also love the fact that they are dimmable. Everything looks great!

Can I just say how good Ellie is looking having just had two babies Wow well done Hon. Yes the camper looks super comfy n cosy,

I absolutely love how your whole family upcycles everything. Ingenuity and using God's gifts to better the earth! God bless your family!

That's what I got a feeling about. Garen and Ellie are such good parents ....every child deserves such good parents....

Oh my gosh I cannot believe every time I see the smallest grandbaby she looks like Garons dad so much!

and a suggestion... for that new step on the van, if you put some astro turf there or some sort of cut up door mat, you can have a good place to collect dirt and sand before it makes its way into the van. Also, with it being lower than the other floor, it will be easy to clean out or vacuum. Basically, a dirt trap that naturally wipes off shoes!

Love the work you guys have put into your van.

That little thing you did with the step on the van blew my mind a bit. Great idea man! The van looking amazing

The van turned outed great ! I think spray paint on the new step would help it blend in better, the rest looks so polished. Nice to see your little family together on these videos.

So glad to realize that I have a connection to this channel!! I am close friends with Liss and Luke and actually left visiting them in Doniphan yesterday and am heading back to AZ with my family!! I even met Jess this trip. I have watched you all before and didn’t realize who you were, Elly. Love all of you at this channel. So excited to get caught up!! God bless.

Wasn't it just a great idea to paint those - always in white - lights black? We think so here. Went with the wood so much better.

Nice work on the step into the van Garen. Waste not want not on using the original piece reversed. I think you need to start thinking about a small horse for Azalea. She mounted that stool at the end in perfect stepping into the saddle mode. Take care all and stay cool.

I love your homestead Garen and Ellie! Is there a video on your animals (and the rest of the fams)? Are the goats your pets or milk goats or both? Do you have a favourite one? ❤️🇨🇦😘

Ellie’s tattoo.... that verse is so you guys.

I remember thinking a few weeks back that with a headliner on the ceiling in such nice shape & why loose the height inside to a layer of wood? But what do I know? I never did anything like a van conversion. 🤷 But y'all saw the same thing I did. That made me smile this week. ☺️

Beautifully done amen and Mami playing With azalea cute .

Another fantastic video family.... Love the way you solve any issues with aesthetics and make things work brilliantly and beautifully... The girls are growing so quickly.

Love watching how you pull together and use both of your talents. I was a little concerned when the little one was playing with bits and pieces and it looked like there were some screws among the plastic parts. Please be careful I think that could be a choking object even those plastic in caps could be. This is coming from a mother of five and a former daycare owner worker. God bless!

I am right there with you, and I understand your concern too, but you realize her mother is filming her and sees the screws and things. She is being watched. Everything we see on this episode, one of her parents is watching what she is doing. I am sure they aren't going to do a 'hands off' video and film her swallowing a screw. We both get that eagle-eye Mom/Dad panic and want to remove the things she picks up to play with, and I am sure they do.

Your van is coming along nicely! Great job! ❤️
