Hi Amy. Former Florida resident here. All glass can break from pressure or flying debris. They make pull down hurricane covers for doors/patio doors, and there are sliding side to side hurricane shutters for doors/patio doors also. Or just plain plywood (cheaper). You cut out the area for your door handles and attach the plywood. But get it now. When the warnings start it will be a madhouse and there won't be anything to buy for protection. It's an expense to do this, but when the storm is over you have your protection to store for another time. It would be awfully expensive to replace a bunch of glass. Not to mention the harm glass could cause if it busted and was flying through your home. I know you're a believer and trust in God, I do too, but unfortunate things do happen. My preachers home literally burned to the ground a few months back. All that was left was the tin roof. The family are all okay, but they are now having to build a whole new house. And be sure you have a box of "pp" pads for little Maxine because she won't be able to go out in a storm. Place water in your bathtubs in case of water disruption. Then you can use any kind of bucket or pitcher and will be able to flush your toilets. Water goes fast when it's not available, and you have a lot of people in your home. I say all of this from my heart. I think you are an awesome family and just want to see you protected. I've truly missed the Bible studies the past couple of weeks! Love and prayers from Karen in Iowa.

Hey Amy! Funny story. We went to Savannah for a doctors appointment this week and I looked up that there was a Culver’s there so we had lunch…..delicious!!! My husband asked me how I heard about Culver’s?? I said Amy and Greg have been enjoying one in their new town…..he says “who is Amy and Greg??” I told him my KZread friends!! Lol. Y’all really do feel like friends!! By the way….bagels are in the dairy section near the butter, cream cheese etc.

Kitchen looks great without the freezer!!! 🤩You'll have to show us its new home in the garage.

Former Floridian (now a North Carolinian) that has lived through many Fl hurricanes. I would suggest doing a "trial run" with putting up your hurricane shutters/protection. It's always takes longer than you expect. You can also check and make sure that you have all the parts needed and that everything is in working order. You can also see if there is anywhere that you may need more protection than you already have. You want to avoid Lowe's/Home Depot when a storm is approaching. I used to do it at the beginning of every hurricane season.

Wow!! Girl, I will never again complain about putting away MY groceries, I was exhausted just watching you describe everything ! And lol about the freezer! Have a great weekend!!

Amy, keep in mind that food like cereal and crackers gets soggy stale faster in Florida due to humidity. I remember having to put cereal on a sheet pan in the oven for a little while to crisp it back up.

Haha. That's true. I would say it becomes stale quicker and have experienced slight dampness on cereals/crackers. I lived in FL 2.5 decades, most of the time with no AC. They were never soggy and I never had to crisp them in the oven. Theirs will be fine. LOL.

I wasn't one that was telling you to move the fridge but i must say that the room looks so much brighter now😊

Amen to taking a break from filming. Don’t know how you’ve done it, sharing this tremendous move ! I’ve loved watching it but man have you earned any rest you can get! ❤

Good evening Amy! Wow, that's a lot but it's your first grocery haul. Can't wait for next week. My grandkids love your monster cookies. I sent the recipe to my granddaughter in Florida too for my great grandkids to try. Thanks for sharing. Hafa adai and love from the island of Guam 🌴❤🌴

Lovely to see you shining in your kitchen again. It's your love language to your family.

Hi Amy, cooking next week. Freezer gone! Love the Maryons.

The freezer! I hope your happy with your decision. Have a wonderful weekend!!!!!

Hello Amy, what a great grocery haul and something for everyone especially Jensen. Then comes the task of finding homes for all we bought of course thinking we have plenty of room cupboard, fridge and freezer room until it comes to putting it away but then its always a tight squeeze lol! So pleased you stocked up on water too you just never know when its going to be needed but in Florida you will need it at some point. I would stock up on some shelve staple groceries too. We don’t get Cyclones etc but do get very serious flooding and getting shopping,or getting it delivered, is a hassle for long periods of time when goods are transported from other States but when we are total cut off I’m grateful for my shelve staples. You don’t need to worry about how often you post your videos I’m sure your other Subscribers like myself will still be here. You have a wonderful weekend with your family❤️

Yes you do have to worry about the doors. You will also may need a camp stove for hurricane needs.

Hello from East Texas! Nice haul! Lots of yummy things. Blessings to you and your family

Hi Amy, I love your videos and loving the new kitchen 😍. As a born and raised Floridan, we have never covered sliding glass doors. But I feel you should do what makes you feel comfortable. Thanks for sharing ❤

May God protect you and your family from hurricanes❤

I stock water in the spring and save it for hurricane supply through October, then I use it up though the winter and restock in the spring. You will need a gallon per person per day for a minimum of 3 days. I stock enough for a week but we don’t have that many people. I also stock food that doesn’t need to be cooked, like peanut butter, crackers, tuna, etc. Also, identify a small interior room or closet as your safe room for when winds or tornadoes kick up. Your grocery haul made my heart happy. Enjoy your weekend!

Now that was a grocery haul! Wowzers!!

Good morning. Stocking up for hurricanes is just like a stock up for winter in the north. I find I just keep an emergency stockup in case of power outage for all seasons. These days, I usually have delivery I have been without a car for an entire year. It is not the same as choosing your own items. I hope you have a fantastic friday blessed weekend. I will see ya monday

A lot of fun in the sun summer goodies! You will totally eat different in the summer. I’m in Texas and your taste totally changes. You’ll want that outdoor kitchen fast.

At my store, bagels are in the Dairy department as well as the bread aisle.

Have a great weekend

When you live in hurricane territory there is never such a thing as too much water. When Ike hit Texas we were out of electricity for two weeks, fortunately our neighborhood had the water supply on generators so we had water. We couldn't get gas or food hardly though, so always keep your tanks and fridges full during the hurricane season.

Enjoy your day ❤️

When we burned my grandmother would spray on vinegar. It took the sting away and didn't have a limit to the "number of applications". When I was on the truck with my husband I put a wash cloth saturated with vinegar on my burns so as not to spray the truck.

We were at church camp all last week, so just now catching up:) So happy to see that your subscribers have gone up!!! Happy for you!!♡ Looks like you're getting settled in :-)

plywood for the back. get it now and have it cut to sz and keep it in ur garage. Also do a trial run it putting at least one storm shutter up so you are not learning when crunch time comes. Welcome to FL! I live in North Florida, by I 75 in a small town called Live Oak.

I had a great day today for my birthday it was so nice out here in New Hampshire

The best hints I can offer for hurricane preparedness: water, gas in cars, cash, prescriptions, shelf-stable food, important papers, proof of pet vaccines, flashlights or candles and lighters, charged phones, battery radio, bags of ice for freezers to keep everything colder longer, etc. A suggestion I have from personal experience….place water (either bottles or jugs) into plastic tubs for storage. The bottles “can” leak

You two are so cute in the first clip, Amy you look so good ❤ you are so beautiful, inside and out ❤ I adore your videos, hugs from Germany 😘

Great haul Amy!

Kitchen looks great 😂. Hope you get plenty of rest this weekend.

You moved the extra fridge from the kitchen lol Great shop Amy :) just so you know my daughters name is Amy as well and she shops like you hehe. enjoy your few days off cant wait til you come back. Love your family love your videos Love from Canada

Hi Amy, That was an awesome haul altogether. Lol! Your freezer is missing ……. You can always use the water so it’s good you have a small stockpile. Maxine is in protective mode. I thought it was a delivery but there’s a cat. It looked like the cat wanted to make friends w Maxie. 😊😊 Omg, by the time you get the groceries put away, you’ll definitely want to sit and relax by the pool. Thanks for sharing.

I think Walmart is changing the bag color from blue to green for their chip/snack brand. That’s a great haul!

Great video! Hubby and I are thinking about becoming snowbirds. MI winters aren't our cup of tea anymore. Looks like my Tupperware and Lock n Lock containers will come in handy. Make it a great wknd! Blessings.

My father in law put ply wood up for the sliding doors and over the Glass front doors. Flying debit got his the first year in Florida. They are expensive to replace.

Have a great weelend!

I hope you video the garbage bag snack mix. Actually all the dishes you mentioned!!

I'm not sure about your Sam's Club but all three in my city are notorious for not listing random items as in stock on the app when, in reality, there is plenty in the club. I'm excited for you to shop at Publix. They seem to have good coupon deals! I am contemplating making your garbage bag snack mix this weekend. I know my kids will love it and who are we kidding...my husband and I will too! 😂 Have a terrific weekend Maryon family!!!

I live here in Florida make sure you have back up chargers for your phones as well and invest in some battery powered fans because when the power goes out it is twice as hot in the house and take all your patio furniture inside as well as any pool stuff also and if they have sandbags get some we use those after the hurricane to replace dirt that washed away its free hey why not lol

Great Video Amy . Can’t wait until Monday lol.

Greg, you are correct, hurricane winds can and do come from every direction. It depends on how a hurricane hits.

I love your earrings.❤❤❤ . Thank you for showing the dairy free and lactose free. It will help me out a lot. Now I will look at the Walmart that I work at.

Hi Amy, I’ve been watching your channel for about 4 years now. I enjoy watching you and your family just getting on with life. I think your youngest child was around 4/5 Steven, then.

Amy i know u think u have enough water but after a hurricane it will go fast. Government web page recommends 1 gallon per person daily for a minimum of two weeks. More is preferred. I enjoy seeing you happy now that your family is all back together. I also enjoy seeing you set up your new home.

The bagels are actually down the bread isle, sometimes in the deli

Hi Amy, I'm also a Naples resident and work in the health field. The best thing to help with the sunburn is plain saline solution. Put it on in the shower right before you're getting out and don't rinse it off. You can also soak gauze in it and lay them on a burn for 20 minutes to help with the sting.

Find a bread outlet and get a bunch and freeze them

Amy, I suggest you use care with the bananas here in Florida. Because it is so hot down here, the bananas turn brown a whole lot faster here.

Oh my gosh! One more idea…I was fine w fridge in kitchen but now that it’s out you could buy unfinished WALL cabinets from Home Depot or Lowe’s and stack them to make a tall pantry wall. Paint to match current cabinets. Cheap and it’s only 12” deep so may not block window at all! Just an idea. I made a buffet by raising the wall cabinets off floor (toe kick height) and put a counter on top in my dining room and also around my fireplace. Did the same for my daughter and they look like expensive built-ins.
