Thank you for taking us on your trip to Scotland. There was no need to apologize for not filming enough. It was your private lives and you have a right to live it and film it the way you want. March 10th will always be Jesse's day of oh my god i have cancer. Her tattoo of each of you writing I love you has special meaning for all of us also. We love Jesse's compassion strength and motivation. It was great to see the three dogs greet you with such Joy.

Absolutely right!

Don't ever apologize for enjoying your vacation. You entertain all of us every week and that is our many vacations. Just to hear you and watch the landing and all it goes on on.The farm gives us a thirty minute vacation every time we watch. Thank you so much Sandi!

This is so true! I've been on disability since I was 47, and I'm 60 now. The wonderful "breaks" she gives me from the pain my life has become is priceless. Her "regular" life is vacation enough. This video was a vacation of a lifetime for me.

Sandi, I am so excited for you. I have watched these posts several times now. How wonderful for you and your family. It’s like my favorite characters in my favorite book all come together and create an explosion of memories. I feel like I was tight there with you peeking out of your pocket. I’m sorry you didn’t get to go to Dalscone. I m sure you would like them as they have the same respect for their animals as you do. Looking forward to many more memories with you. Hugs from Debbie Travis in Savannah, Georgia.

I cried at Jess's writing. I am a mom of 5 daughters and all of them amazing. To have one fall ill would really be horrible for me. You all did well.

Thanks for making us cry with you. Beautiful sentiment from a beautiful and strong woman.

I’ve never seen Mark laugh so hard! He’s always so stoic.

Don’t be sorry for failing to film more, how often do you guys get a trip like this. Enjoy every moment & make the most of every adventure. I don’t know any one who deserves it more 🎉🎉

@@Ladywolf2263 No doubt about all of that! Funny and intelligent contribute to his snarky humor. Intelligent, hardworking, and not suffering fools make him gruff (in my eyes). He's not a fluffy, chatty person on camera like other channels. He says what needs to be said, puts a zinger on the end, and not much more. I agree with your assessment of his character!

Sandi and Mark. Seeing you both cry while while reading Jess’ post made me feel very happy and very sad. I lost my daughter to ovarian cancer in November of 22. Then lost my husband to a freak sepsis infection six months after. Please count your blessings and hold one another close always. One never knows when the last day comes. I wish our medical fiasco in British Columbia would be over!!!give your dear girl a very big hug from me next time you see her.

We are having medical fiasco here in the states also. I need to have an endoscopy and I can’t have it done until April 23rd!! I have some real issues going on with my stomach right now. It’ll be bad for me having to wait so long if my Barrett’s esophagus progresses to cancer like my dads did and I’m having to wait for this endoscopy. The only way to have it sooner is to have a bad episode and go in through the emergency room. They may or may not even do it then. 🤷‍♂️

I am so very sorry for your losses. I too lost my husband in 2011 just days past 47 then one son in feb 2022 age 33 both heart related. its devastating esp losing a child. that was worse for me then my husband of 25.5 yrs although both were bad. I lost my mom at 17 to ovarian cancer. her funeral was on my 18th birthday. I wouldn't wish losing loved ones this way on anyone. I live in Ontario CAnada too and its scary to see the state of our health care system. i am a former RPN and have kids and nieces all in health care too. my heart aches for u because I know what its like and yes tomorrow isn't guaranteed so make sure those around u know how much u love them and spend quality time with them. let the little stuff go. my son kept asking me to go fishing with him but we were preparing my house to sell so didn't take the time other than once. the bugs were so bad we left after 10 mins and now i wish i had said to heck with the house lets go. lesson learned. now i'm terrified of losing one of my other 3 kids because i don't know that i'd survive it again. I'm thankful that Jess got a happy ending and pray she lives a long full life. I think her tattoo idea was absolutely wonderful and very special. thanks sandi for including us in your vacation. i loved it. always wanted to see scotland and ireland as its my ancestory but never could afford the trip. so this was wonderful.

Thank you Sandi and family for taking us with you on your adventure! 🪻💚🙃

I am crying too! Bless you Jess! So glad you and Mark loved Scotland, especially after the year you have had. It's beautiful 😍

Mark sure does love you! A vacation with all those 🐑 is the best. Thank you for taking us along.

Coming home to pets; what a joyous welcome.❤❤

I love how Kinsey gave Mark a quick glance then made a beeline straight to Sandi. Lucy and Piper were overjoyed to have mom and dad back home. ❤

That was a wonderful trip, and I am so glad you and Mark made the time to get away. Looks like you did see some lovely places, and of course some great friends that will be in your lives from here on out. It was very sweet what Jess wrote her feelings on the anniversary, and how she combined a love tattoo with each of your handwriting. Sandi, cant thank you enough for taking us along on your trip, it was very thoughtful and sweet. 💕👍

Commenting now and watching later because we do "Sandi sheeps" at bedtime. Toby, 2, loves everything that is Sandi, your voice, your sheep and your "TWACKERS" (tractors) 😂❤ editing - im so glad you all enjoyed yourself, but sad Carl was poorly 😔 Piper definitely missed you,Lucy was excited but Kinzy looked relieved you were home❤

Sandi, you and Liz's smiles are identical!!! Beautiful!!!❤❤❤

Thatl letter from Jessica got me !! It was absolutely beautiful ❤️!!

Your sister is so great on camera it isn't easy for everyone to be comfortable. You and her seem to have a lot of fun together too need each other to fend off the men

Okay, tears are flowing. My daughter was diagnosed March 27, but almost ten years ago. It did change her life, her priorities, and her joy for things she once took for granted. She has also been a great support for others who, like herself, were diagnosed far too young. ❤ What an amazing trip! Thank you for sharing with us.

Thanks much for taking us along. It was a great trip!

Awwwwww! I also teared up hearing about Jess’ tattoo - what an excellent way to take a scary anniversary and turn it into something that celebrates your family

There is NO WELCOME HOME greeting more passionately EXPRESSED than the "welcome home" from your DOGS! I cried 😂😂

Thank you for sharing with us❤

Never apologize for being in the moment - adding the details during editing works! And the Red Shepherdess & fam could be in the moment too Toddlers are so cute when all their growth potential is stored in their cheeks !

WOW ,thanks SO much for taking us along. I had a Great time.❤

What a lovely trip. Your sister is just as beautiful as you are. LOVE IT!!

TOTALLY AWESOME!! Thanks for sharing you guys ❤❤

Family is the glue that keeps us together. We so need each other. Thanks Sandy, thank you Jessica. ❤

How wonderful! Thank you for sharing. I think I need a month in Scotland. It’s where my grandfather immigrated to New York from. What a touching tribute from Jess. She is forever changed and I know it must be hard to have your little girl so grown but how proud you must be of her warrior spirit!

It was so great to see Mark being so open, talkative, and enjoying himself. I know and understand the basis for the change, I'm just glad he's sticking with it. I can honestly say they look like a 'happy' married couple. ❤

So well planned out. With the driving and staying and BNBs. Friends and fun.

Grey friars Bobby!!!! An amazing story of love and loyalty between a dog and his man. Amazing trip ypu had.

I liked so many comments below. I will add one thing...I smiled when I saw how the dogs went wild when you both got home ! ! ! So glad you got that on video. Hugs to you both and ALL the animals.

Oh my gosh, what a trip! Thank you for taking us along. And yes, I cried when you read the post from Jess. It was great to see you all laughing and enjoying the trip. Welcome home!

First I am crying for Jess, and then you show the statue of the little dog, more crying. I am si glad you guys are having such a great time. I have loved seeing the sheep farms. Thank you.

What an adventure! Thanks for taking us along and introducing us to some very special people. What a beautiful way for Jess to celebrate family and triumph. ❤

Definitely this was a heartwarming and memorable VLOG … actually all the footage of your trip has been such! Thank you so much for taking us along and showing bits of the various excursions you endeavoured! Such a beautiful place with such amazing old world architecture … bygone eras! Especially loved the cobblestone streets everywhere. I know you guys have thoroughly enjoyed yourselves and I’ve no doubt this will be the first of many vacations. Did I forget to mention I love to travel vicariously. 😊 See you back home! I’m hoping your special guest is Tara … I know she travelled to Banff and Calgary areas … tourist spots for sure! I’m hoping she either stopped by on her way out or way back home, to your place for a quick visit! Wow … this has been an exciting March 2024! Speaking of which March … that was a lovely post Jess composed. She’s certainly grown over the last few years. First, braving it on her own in Iceland … and then secondly, surviving the last year and a bit and doing it gallantly! I can safely say we’re all very proud of her! Ciao! 🙏🙌❤️🇨🇦🌺

As the tears are falling, I realize what a wonderful family you have . Since ours is grown and gone...I am amazed at what wonderful people we have nurtured and raised. Surprise !! Bless your family and specially Jess....she is amazingly strong and powerful...Just like my niece Danielle who has survived Cancer too !

I usually don’t comment on your videos unless it’s about you being Wonder Woman or how cute the sheep babies are…… but since you read the note from Jess…… How sweet are the words from our children’s mouth that say I love you and your worth the world to me! It touches a place in your heart that nothing else can. It’s so pure and selfless, no wonder that they are blessings from almighty God our creator! How wonderful and special that Jess loves you guys so deeply!❤ you , Sandi are an amazing woman.thank you so very much for giving of yourself and your time and your life and farm and family to all the subscribers out there who love you and watch and listen to every word you speak. What a great video. Thank you Sandi and blessings from Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. U.S.A.❤

Wow, where do I start? What a great vlog. Most of us will never see Scotland in person and your editing of all the filming was excellent. Felt like I was there. Love seeing food too😁. So sorry Carl got sick. That’s a bummer on vacation. Also drank my coffee through tears as you read Jess’s IG post. I love what she writes and I love her vlogs. She’s a beautiful old soul. And your doggies…what a greeting. Home again, home again jiggity jigg!❤️

I'm so glad you got to get away. Thank you for taking me along... I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it.

🥺🤗🙏🏻💕Jess and all of your journey with her. Scotland Tourism owes you all, thousands more will want to visit there now😄

Jess, could not have written that any better! I have tried for almost 12 years to put my journey into words with no luck. As I sat here hearing her beautiful post I cried and agreed. All the awful chemo's, surgeries and radiations I made it through but relive that day of hearing those awful words over more than I'd like to say. A new normal as you try to explain but can't and try to figure out just what that is. Everything changes in an instant as your world will never be the same. I LOVE what Jess did it's so beautiful and touching. As those of us know you are not alone in your battle of "C" your loved ones fight alongside of you and what a beautiful thing to do to maybe show just what that meant to her! Loved it Jess!!!

Love love love all of this. Your trip was amazing. But the best part of all was seeing those happy dogs and their excited squealing ❤❤❤

Thanks for sharing your trip with us. Quite the welcome home you got from Piper. Glad you had a safe and enjoyable time. God Bless.

Thank you for sharing your vacation with us. The pics are beautiful. When you read the post from Jess, I cried my heart out. It was a long journey but she has made it through and I'm so proud of her. GOD BLESS ALL OF YOU

Loved 'accompanying' you on your Scotland tour. Thank you for taking the time out of your much needed holiday to give us updates. I think you have gone home for a rest!! You are such a lovely family, and it was so lovely to see you relaxed and enjoying the time time away together. 😊😊

Welcome home, Sandi and Mark! Although you had a fantastic time away, there is no place like home.❤ The dogs were ballistic over seeing 'mom and dad' come in the house. Sandi, I appreciate that you shared your vacation with us. It's as close aes I can get unfortunately. Therefore all of the special people and places were breathtakingly beautiful. The scenery around Scotland and England were story book perfect. I can only imagine being able to see those areas in person. March 10th was a day when we all were just as upset as your family. I thank God for answered prayers, and continually comforting Jess throughout an extremely cumbersome and terrifying ordeal. Jess is a remarkable, gorgeous, and irreplaceable young woman! Thank you again for letting us tag along! I'm sure it will take a few days to 'catch up' with rest. In the meantime, I'm sending you warmth and blessings from Alabama ❤️

I have cried before but never as hard as when you read Jess’ post. I am so glad she honored you all in that way!! What a classy girl she is!!! ❤❤❤

I absolutely LOVE seeing you and Mark enjoying your time off and vacation!!! You two SOOOO deserve every minute of it!!!❤❤

Dang it Jess😭 you got me baling my eyes out over here! 🥰Honestly can't blame you though...having that love and support during the rough stuff is beyond touching and magical. You survived your rough patch and came out the other side stronger and more compassionate than ever😊 I walked that rough road with my mom and while I finished it alone without her, hearing your bell and the strength you've shown through it all reminds me of her strong spirit and deep love. So celebrate every little thing you can however you can....life is but a journey and the path not always smooth or sure, but the love of those around you lift you and support you the whole journey through.❤❤

So glad you got to visit and explore while vacating. SO glad your all safe back home. Babies missed you so much.....😊

Thank you for sharing. You certainly deserved your getaway. And there is no place like home with all the incredible memories. 😊 🍀🐕❤

Thank you for taking us with you!! What a great trip! Those pups were sure glad to see you home. I wonder if the sheep missed you.

Sandi and family, so glad you are enjoying the beauty of a place I call home. I forget that I live in a beautiful country and seeing it through your camera makes me want to go and visit it more .I hope you are fully rested from your vacation.I am glad that you are safely home and I can't wait to see more lambs and the golden girls.❤

Thank you so much for sharing the moment you read Jess' post. You're sharing so much, much more than anyone can expect, never apologize for not sharing enough and taking moments for yourself.

Very emotional for sure and Jess is a very good writer. I cry when I hear bagpipes...

It looks like you had a good time, a shame it wasn't sunny. You tried out some of the pubs, and did a lot of walking. Returning home is always a joy. I wonder if the sheep miss you as much as the dogs. Love from Mike. ❤

That was fantastic. Thank you for taking us with you. I would never have experienced any of that otherwise. Looking forward to seeing all the babies

Thank you so much for showing that you can get way cool places to stay at. Don’t travel much so we appreciated all the scenes of the travel. So thank you for bringing us along we would not have missed it for the world. 🇨🇦

Well that made me cry. How special was that. Such a sweet daughter. ❤

Jess's post made me cry. You are all so very lucky to have each other. I loved seeing Mark in holiday mode, the tears of laughter, his sense of humour really shined. You, as ever shine with that smile of yours. The Lake District is a beautiful place to stay and Scotland is breathtaking. You got quite the welcome back eh? Safe to say you were missed. Thank you for taking us with you. ❤❤❤

Thanks for sharing your holiday with us, it's been so lovely to see you and Mark relaxing and taking time away from the day job😂

Jessica’s post was so emotional and couldn’t have read it ❤ So glad you enjoyed your vacation and sharing it with us, missed you 🍀

Thank you for inviting us along. Always enjoy your content!

Ireland is number one on my bucket list. Scotland was beautiful and thank you for showing it to us. My mother is a Scottish Canadian but doesn't know much about Scotland. Maybe she'll get a glimpse from your vlog.

Kids know how to get us right in the heart! Jess gets that talent from you, Sandi - I still cry whenever I read your letter to Amy. A couple of years ago, when my grandson was 9 or 10, he gave me a handmade card with two random puzzle pieces on the outside. Inside, the pieces joined together, with "You complete me." I sobbed when I read it, and I still do!

This was a wonderful experience that you graciously shared. Thank you so much 💓 God Bless you and your family. Love you all❤

Wonderful footage of your vacation! Jess brought a tear to everyone I’m sure of it! Puppers happy you’re home!

What an extraordinary trip! So wonderful to see places through someone else's eyes. Glad you had a fabulous time. Thank you so very much! ❤

Thank you so much for taking time out of your vacation to film. It looks like you guys had a great time. This was so much fun to watch!

Nice ink Jess and the words very fitting

I’m 70 years old now and I will never get back to any part of Europe so I enjoyed it through your eyes!

I cried when you read off your phone, I remembered what my mom went through chemo. It was a sad time but better times afterwards.

Thanks for taking us along. Jess's letter brought a tear to my eye, she should take up writing. 😊

I often resist the urge to watch your videos immediately, I enjoy reading the 99.99% supportive comments so much I feel like I'm missing out if I don't. Much love from the UK, come back soon.

Thank you for sharing! Not a place I will ever see. So glad you shared your experiences. Truly appreciate it. God bless you and your family.

Great to see a new video. Looking forward to watching tonight when I get off work.

I’m so happy your having an awesome time on vacation. Blake is a cutie!!your daughter loves her parents and brother with all her heart. I’m living vicariously through you all in the UK!

I'll never get there, so thanks for letting me along via video. It's beautiful over there.

I live in Eugene Oregon and looking at the hillside as you hike down from the castle tour. I see Scotch Broom. We have it all over here and I am so allergic. I wonder if I could ever get away from it, obviously not in Scotland I think that’s where it comes from. What an amazing trip. Jess made us all cry too. Love you guys.
