    You got that right about children being healthier if exposed to country elements for the most part.

    Lexi had shoes on so complainers should be happy about that. I grew up on a farm in Australia and was barefoot most of the time. Somehow I'm still alive at 74.

    Being barefoot is better as long as they don’t step on glass or things like that. Feet need to feel the ground

    I’m not a designer in any way, but I think those wooden pillars are actually making your farmhouse more modern, but still looking like a farmhouse. Your property is gorgeous, so rich with history and freedom. You guys did a big favor to yourselves and your children by buying it. Thank you for sharing and your babies are growing fast 🙏🌸🌼🌺

Good job! Lexi and the eggs! It's too funny and sweet. The best 3 bucks you spent. I love your pillars, and they do match the house. It is a great idea to get a pergola for your fireplace area. That would be cool. Great interview, Xander. It would be cool if all of his birthday interviews were in one video as a refresh. That is a wonderful tradition to do birthday interviews. ❤

I am afraid I am going to tune into a video and see a teenager standing there. Looks like life is going well! God bless and have a great week.

    Yes, a Pergola would be what I would suggest for the concrete pad/fireplace. You could make a dining area with table/chairs as well as a sitting area. And since there is electric out there you can add the lovely outdoor lights so it's nice and cozy. If you wanted to and the budget allowed you could even add a small kitchen out there with a grill, gas stove burner, a sink, & small fridge. That would be a wonderful place to hang out in the summer when you aren't out camping. And a great place to entertain if you are into that. You have a lovely place! The barn idea sounds wonderful.
