Girl I feel you! I went from a single mom working EMS for $11.25/hr to marrying my husband in prison to a severe car accident that left me permanently disabled to homeless with my babies in our car for 6 months to a 'faith' group home with 14 roommates to living with friends in 3 different places to buying a 30' travel trailer we've been in for over a year, to my husband coming home in July 23 to JUST closing on a home yesterday on 38.5 acres!!! I'm so freaking excited!!! I love watching your come up!!!
Congrats....Great to hear someone's very hard work has paid off. May God continue to bless you and your family. Blessings from Melbourne Australia 🙏 🇦🇺 💙
Omgosh girl CONGRATULATIONS!!!! That’s incredible!!! I need to be watching YOU tell your story!!! That’s amazing!!! Thank you for sharing this with us. I pray God continues to bless you and your family! And 37.5 acres!!!! AHHHHHH!!! That’s so exciting!!!! 😭👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💙💙💙
Congratulations girl! You probably won't see this comment but......... I am gonna post it anyway! You called me 5 years ago when my son was awaiting to be sentenced in prison at only 17 years old, he was given 7 years, he got out last year on January 31, 2023 after serving just over 4 years. They let him off paper last week, he was supposed to be on for a minimum of 3 years! He is doing awesome, working as an ironworker/welder bought his truck and has a lot going for him. Thank you for your advice babe, I am so happy for you. I watch but do not comment much, however I am so beyond happy for you and Jeremy, I pray y'all have everything in life that you desire. You certainly have worked hard to get where you are. Much love and gratitude to you my friend!
First of all, how'd she get your number!? I'm assuming you didn't wrecklessly drop it in a comment!? I need more deets before I ever believe this story.
WHAT I LOVE ABOUT YOU CHRISTINA YOU DON'T JUDGE WHAT ANYONE LIVES IN!! TRAILER, APARTMENT, MANSION, TOWN HOUSE, A TENT, ETC YOU JUST SHOW LOVE TO EVERYONE!! PLZ ALWAYS STAY THIS WAY.. ❤
Christina you deserve every bit of your success and happiness. Recovering from being homeless, rehabilitation after prison, and then starting your own business and building your dream house? #thatsdrive
We must have met after your stint at Wendy's or I'd been begging you for some fries and frostys every night! I remember you working at that Edible Arrangements shop but I wasn't into eating fruit back then. LOL. No matter how hard you were working, you always made time to make everyone you came in contact with feel special. That is why you are so successful. You give your all in everything you do. So proud of all you have accomplished and happy for everything you have obtained. You deserve the world cause you have given the world so much! Love you girl 😘
Isn't it precious, y'all, to read these comments on here by people who actually know Christina! I'm so glad for the confirmation that Christina is indeed the real deal. What an amazing person, a wonderful life story, and we are blessed that she shares herself with us. This vlog especially is special to me as a testimony full of hope for so many people who have loved ones whose lives right now resemble the beginnings of Christina's story. We're all praying for someone in our lives, that one day they'll have a testimony like Christina's: full of faith in Jesus Christ, with an intact family unit and happy spouse and kids, loads of generosity and success. Lord, answer our prayers like you answered someone's in Christina's life!
3:12 My mom went to school for 10 years full time with 2 jobs and single mom of 3 now she’s a chem engineer and owns her first home. I cried like she was my kid at her graduation 😂 we grew up in government housing and homeless shelters. I’m so proud of how far she’s come🖤
This video is the prime example of why I love you and I have followed you for years! You are so genuine and such a positive light in a very negative world❤
Omg, I remember years ago you saying word for word “I can’t show you the front of my house but I will one day whenever we don’t live here anymore” I think it was showing Christmas or Halloween decorations? But it’s so crazy now it’s all full circle and how that memory just popped up in my head. As a prior addict and reckless criminal lol… you were the first influencer I could “relate too” and it meant so much back then when I was first getting my life together. Now I’ve got a big beautiful house and life and I’m married with a baby girl. I’m so proud of you, you’re the most real person I’ve ever seen on social media. I wish there were more people like you to be friends with 😂 so so so so proud of you and everything you’ve been blessed with - you deserve it 100000% ❤😊🫶🏼
Girl, I am getting a lump in my throat listening to you talk about your journey and how far you’ve come. You are a rare breed Christina and wish everyone could have a you in their life. ❤️
I know!! I felt that too a lump in my throat and teary eyed too. She's so much fun to listen to and I reap sure good vibs that encourage me I'm happy for all her success's...makes me feel like I want to start making my own... Happy Easter!
I am so excited for you! I went from prison to Salvation Army, got pregnant, working for $7.25 an hour and then doing community service right after to working up to $14 in 7 years. Got married, bought our first house, got a divorce, sold the house, drank again. Fast forward, got clean and sober again, got saved, got back with my ex husband, got married again, bought another house. Girl! Thank you for sharing your story.
Congratulations Melissa for sticking in there and reaping all that really mattered!! Your an inspiration also and I enjoyed reading your comment. I've been clean for 17 yrs spent many years going full time at NA meetings and it took 7 Rehabs ( spent so much money on me to get clean and a ton more in addiction.) I just about lost my husband and my home. Getting clean was difficult for me but when I rededicated my life to Christ I was sowing the peace that passes all understanding to remain clean and sober. "Happy Easter" ✝ 👒✝
@@lynngehringer1073 Love your testimony! Keep sharing it. It's a blessing to me to read. I'm praying for a cousin who's living somewhere in the middle of that story. Praying, praying, Lord please help Michelle to make it through, and get into a blessed life sober!
What is beautiful about Christina is she’s always been grateful for everything. I remember her celebrating her 1500 subscriber count and she was so genuinely happy about it. She’s always had so much gratitude.
It literally does not matter what I'm watching....i click immediately. Hope you guys are good girl. Did you see all the fuss about homeschool on your last video???
@@casuallychristina636 that's what I meant. No arguments just a fuss meaning LOTS of Interest in the subject. Typically my comments don't warrant such a deep conversation. Super helpful.
Hey girlfriend, This was cool to hear you explain things. Sounds like some ruff times. I hope you feel Blessed every day. You sure have worked very hard for it. I can’t wait to see you show the house. Glad to see you in a better position where you can do for your family. I’m so, happy and excited for you. I hope things are going better for your family members. God Bless them!! Stay safe. Have a great night. God Bless and family too!! Xo 😘💗 You deserve so, much and more!! Xo 😘 You should be proud!! Xo 😘
Currently in the same tire situation 😂😂😂....i love how humble you guys are and yes you deserve what you have. Thank you for giving me hope and motivation.
This literally brought me to tears. I discovered you & your channels over 4 years ago when I was going through a rough time. You inspired me to get help for my addiction issues & start my own “glow up”. I figured if you could do it, I could do it & I did. I’m not living in my dream house, but I’m living in my dream high-rise apartment & have been sober for over 4 years. The blessings just keep coming & while I primarily have myself to thank for what I’ve accomplished, I also want to thank you for the inspiration. You are a rarity in the social media world & even though I’m old enough to be your mom, I have so much respect for you. I don’t like the word deserve, but you really do deserve everything good that’s happening to you. I cant wait to continue following your journey & I really cant wait to see your new home video!! 😊❤
You have always been so incredibly special! You just didn’t value yourself way back then. I hope you see your worth nowadays! You are so loved Kristina! Thank you for always being real with us!
I don’t know if you’ll see this comment, but I’ve watched you a couple years now and I’m so happy for you. I didn’t have it quite as rough, but I grew up struggling with a single mom and married young and we were in school and working full time too. It’s been 18 years now and we’ve built a multi million dollar software company and have upgraded our home life over the years and last year bought land and building our forever home, too; one I use to think was just a fairytale, but we worked hard to make our fairytale come true too. With no one handing us anything! I hope God continues to bless you. You seem like such a sweet soul.
Christina you are blessed because you Bless others with your grateful heart I know we all have our stories some don't turn out as well as yours and Jeremy's but the fact that you communicate have mutual goals and work together to reach them is itself amazing and encouraging that their are marriages that can work.Looking forward to seeing your new family home.BY THE WAY SOMETIMES YOU DON'T COME UP ON PHONE SO CAN'T 👍watch on tv also can't comment or thumbs up,but love ya!
Unfortunately you will always get people who are bitter and jealous, but you only get one life and a finite number of years so enjoy everything you've worked for and make tons of wonderful memories.
Yeah she reminds me so much a lot of Nipsey Hussle just take your time it's not a race that's what I always tell my daughter nothing is a competition and everybody's on their own journey like from a to b yeah take your time and enjoy the journey and the view because that's what we really I look back and I think all this crappy s*** happened and yeah it was f****** crazy but look how many I see so many blessings that have come out of it they're
The only RUclipsr I’ve followed that made it big and still stayed true to herself and her audience. So much respect for you mama Christina. So damn proud of you!!!
Faith the size of a mustard seed! You are such a witness of the power of God. May your blessings continue and your family continue to bring love through this beautiful property.
Out of everybody on the Internet you are the one person that is down to earth,Good hearted,Christian family. You guys deserve a good home! You worked hard for it ! I love your whole family your whole story! I’ve been here since day one and you deserve it!
Girl, This was beautifully done. I had mad respect for you before.....( I already knew most of this, cuz I have been here awhile.) I love the dedication you have to your family, faith & dreams. ♥ My husband and I have started with NOTHING and with HARD work and SELF DISCIPLINE (with finances ) we have come so far. The way you are sharing your story with all of us it really does show how grateful & appreciative you are to have what you have. I wish you health & happiness...Love you sweetie ⭐
Christina, I started crying, I've followed you for a long time. You and Jeremy are a beautiful couple and family. I wish you all years of happiness in your new home!
This story resonates with me. Me and my fiance did similar, but unfortunately, unexpectedly, he passed away, and because of our frugality, I was able to stay in our home and afford it. I enjoyed your journey and love the channels. Thank you for sharing ❤
Dang, talk about the ultimate journey of peaks and valleys. Can't even imagine surviving such a loss. See you like arts and crafts. My wife does those diamond art paintings. I call them "dippin' dots" (after the ice cream franchise of the same name). 🍨
So happy that you guys are able to fulfill your dream and I don’t think anyone would throw stones or sticks at having a nice beautiful new home especially if you can afford it and you guys did work so hard for it. I’m so happy for you guys.
I’m not even a minute in and I agree. You can’t just jump into the new house. There’s a story that leads up to the new house. Blood, sweat and tears. Let’s go!
My husband and I live under our means. We are in the same house he bought as a late teen 24 years ago. We make probably 4x more than we did when we got married 15 years ago. The house is wonderful and it's ours. We are so grateful for all we have. Absolutely do not need anything more.
Christina, I am sooo immensely proud of you!! I’ve been following you since 2018 and have loved seeing you and your channel grow through the years. It's evident you’ve put A LOT of work into building this success for yourself and your family. Perhaps the most impressive part is how grounded, grateful, and true to yourself you’ve stayed throughout it all. You’re an inspiration to never lose faith and always keep working toward your dreams. You’re so deserving of all these blessings and more. Cheering for you always!! 🙌
Sounds like you earned everything you have and busted your butt to make it. Our lives are the culmination of our choices. You decided and turned everything around. Very inspiring!
I work in a women’s halfway house in CT. I would love to talk with you about some things that worked for you to succeed. This is Amazing! You are humble and deserve every bit as I know how difficult it is coming from prison. My women struggle to succeed (putting it lightly). Maybe if u have time?? Trying to save lives one woman at a time ❤
This truly makes me SO HAPPY! You have grown and blossomed into such a beautiful women/human on here, with us. Thank you for sharing your sacred life with us and showing us that we can become successful in life and grow from low places. 💙
I love your story. You guys are so grounded and such an inspiration to many. Love following you as you are just who you are. Dying to see your new home. Stay as sweet as you are.
Every time I watch one of your videos, I'm taken back to 5 years ago, when I first started watching you. I'm so very happy for you and your family! You've put in the work and consistency and passion. You've helped so many of us through so many things. Your story is so inspiring to me, I was in my first year when I first started watching you. I was 21 and in a different country, and now I graduated, I'm turning 26 next month with my baby girl due next month. Life is about changing and growing and evolving, and allowing people to evolve and your channel and your life story are definitely such a testament to that. Honestly, God bless you. You deserve this!
I love seeing your humility and loving this very simple house! Happy for you in your happiness and thankfulness! Love that you want to hang the picture in the new house!! Blessings to you!
Girl, what you are doing are MAJOR GOALSSSSS. I know I am just some random person on the internet, but I am proud of you. I know so many people personally who didn't or haven't come back from the same kind of stuff you came back from. You deserve ALL of it. You are a beautiful person, inside and out. Thanks for keeping us along on your journey!
Christina what you did by saving up is way smarter and wiser than being impulsive. It’s good to see you again. Yes you have been blessed and I hope 🤞 u continue to be a blessing.
I can not tell you how much I admire you. You made it to the other side of a life I still struggle to reach after 2 years of sobriety and 5 years out of prison. The strength you have, the inner beauty, the realness you never cease to bring, you are so inspiring!
Really love that you gave us the back story before showing us your new home, and of course finally seeing the fuller picture of your old home 😁 I've been watching you for years, and you're one of the few RUclipsrs who have consistently stayed authentically yourself. And we love you for it! 🥰😁 I am so thrilled for you and your family with your new home. You deserve all God's blessings 🙌 The light and love of Christ is always apparent in you 🥰❤️ I cannot wait to see the next video 🤩 Sending love from Cape Town, South Africa 🥰
Wow this gives me hope. I’m 22 feeling the weight of the world on my shoulders barely surviving paycheck to paycheck with being a single mom of twins and most times I catch myself in the headspace of this just being what my life is and it’s so depressing. Watching this video really opened my eyes up to how you can go from nothing to living the life you and your family want with hard work. I respect the way you and your husband provide for your family even after all the struggles hopefully one day I’m in the position to do the same🥹🩷
I’m crying! Thank you God! 😢😢😢 he really took care of you and provided! This is amazing! May the lord continue to bless your family!!! He is faithful! Christina you had faith the size of a mustard seed! 💕💕🥰🥰
You deserve all of the success you've achieved. You're one of a kind....smart, beautiful, sweet, and have a heart of gold like myself. Love ya girl. ❤❤❤
Hey, ik this is random bc you don't know me, lol, but your comment was under mine and I've got a question....Has she showed their new home on here or main channel??? If so, oh I did see it getting worked on, and then updates! But, the whole thing, all finished, house tour? Tia
Tina D I am so freaking proud of you girl!...I've known you close to 30 years and you have stayed so humble thru everything that you have been thru and you have came so far! You deserve it all boo!💖 Summer😘
Dude. You forgot one of your eyebrows. LOL. I’m so proud of you. I’m a complete failure in life. 63 and never did what you’ve did to better yourself!!! ❤
I worked directly with the homeless and a lot of those guest were just coming out of prison. I also went to the academy to work in the prisons. I myself, was living in my car at one point for four months and it was a humbling experience. Thanks for sharing your trials turned to Triumphs. We need more of these life stories ❤
My 'first home' (that I owned) was about 1600 sq ft for me, ExHusb & 3 lil ones...and I loved that home! Hurricanes, living in a travel trailer in the front yard (with 4 in-laws, so I GET cramped). divorce and sale...So hard. Nothing at all like your first real home. Edit: to add, I should've waited to comment....I am with you on the land, for many reasons. If nothing else, things are wild...and land is such a blessing for who knows what, but NEVER a bad idea. The house is a bonus blessing! My sister and her in-laws and the whole family are on a huge property with their own homes...it's amazing. So happy for you all, you definitely beyond deserve it. Thank you for sharing!
What I love about this is that you've seen blessing after blessing ever since that day you gave God a mustard seed of faith in that prison bathroom and you've also found time to be grateful for what you do have every step of the way. Personally, I'm HONORED to have been here from the start of your RUclips career. ❤
Hey girl! Remember me? Its Danielle from the Netherlands! Long time it’s been but I have been lurking every now and then. It’s been a busy hectic few years, some health situations and all that, but I am happy to tell you that I am studying again and will become a psychologist soon 😊. And well, you are a big part of that journey in me finding the strength and courage to do that at back then 28 years old lol. I am gonna be 30 in august of this year. But yeah, im chasing dreams again. Just like you have been doing and succeeding obviously! Im so happy for you ❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉 Gosh girl! I am so incredibly, over the moon, up the mountains and back down, from Australia to Florida HAPPY for you! I am thrilled for you! This is what you have always wanted and your dreams did come true! And your family is joining soon and the kids can drive up to grandma and grandpa soon, like you’ve been talking about! You guys are making it happen and I seriously couldn’t be happier for you. Honest to god! You and Jeremy and the fam deserve this so much! That freedom must feel otherworldly! I am SO EXCITED to see what you guys have done with the decor and everything. I have been patiently waiting, but im exploding over here, girl! So get your booty on that for us! 😂 And how are Jeremy and the kids and the whole family doing? Did Jeremy get his tanks out to the new home? And the BBQ haha! But yeah, again. Im beyond happy and grateful for yall being able to make your dreams come true and build your forever home in that incredible place! And I just wanted to again say thank you. You know how much you mean to so many of us, and to me as well. You’ve truly inspired me with our chats to get back up and to find that fighting spirit again. Gave me a kind kick in the booty. And I found it alright haha. I am working towards my own dreams and I’m getting closer every day. I have passed everything for the last two years 😊 and will be working soon towards my degree in medical psychology. So yeah, I truly want to thank you for being you! You are an amazing human and I love you to pieces! ❤ You deserve it all!! I hope to be able to send you some pictures soon. (Is the email I have still one you use?) With big hugs and love from the Netherlands, Danielle
@@Dawn-f7g thats so sweet! Thank you 🙏🏻 ❤️ Got some bad health issues that progressed and in 2016 they basically said I would be on disability forever. I worked as a paramedic back then and destroyed my body because of my disease (similar to MS). Well after some time of recovery and acceptance, talking with Christina, I said screw that! Put my own recovery plan together and worked my behind off to get well enough to get back to studying. Back on track to make dreams come true! 😄 truly, anything is possible! Thank you again ☺️
We did the same thing as you and your family. Worked our butts off, saved, and were able to move into our home. Ironically, we also have a used Lincoln and chickens. 😂 Great minds! 😊❤ Praying you and your family have a long lifetime of beautiful moments in your new home.
Girl I feel you! I went from a single mom working EMS for $11.25/hr to marrying my husband in prison to a severe car accident that left me permanently disabled to homeless with my babies in our car for 6 months to a 'faith' group home with 14 roommates to living with friends in 3 different places to buying a 30' travel trailer we've been in for over a year, to my husband coming home in July 23 to JUST closing on a home yesterday on 38.5 acres!!!

You have always been so incredibly special! You just didn’t value yourself way back then. I hope you see your worth nowadays! You are so loved Kristina! Thank you for always being real with us!
Yes ALL this is true.....
However her name is NOT "Kristina" it's "CHRISTINA"
FYI...........
@@dragonflyy000 thank you for the correction. I did talk to text for that comment earlier because I was busy doing my dishes lol. Damn auto correct! 😂
I don’t know if you’ll see this comment, but I’ve watched you a couple years now and I’m so happy for you. I didn’t have it quite as rough, but I grew up struggling with a single mom and married young and we were in school and working full time too. It’s been 18 years now and we’ve built a multi million dollar software company and have upgraded our home life over the years and last year bought land and building our forever home, too; one I use to think was just a fairytale, but we worked hard to make our fairytale come true too. With no one handing us anything! I hope God continues to bless you. You seem like such a sweet soul.
Christina you are blessed because you Bless others with your grateful heart I know we all have our stories some don't turn out as well as yours and Jeremy's but the fact that you communicate have mutual goals and work together to reach them is itself amazing and encouraging that their are marriages that can work.Looking forward to seeing your new family home.BY THE WAY SOMETIMES YOU DON'T COME UP ON PHONE SO CAN'T 👍watch on tv also can't comment or thumbs up,but love ya!
@NatalieNichols Dang. A real life "Halt and Catch Fire" type tale. I felt it was one of the most well done media creations of all time.
I appreciate the back story. Kids today think you post videos & are a millionaire immediately!! Soooo happy for yall!! Well deserved!! 🩷🩷🩷
Unfortunately you will always get people who are bitter and jealous, but you only get one life and a finite number of years so enjoy everything you've worked for and make tons of wonderful memories.
Yeah she reminds me so much a lot of Nipsey Hussle just take your time it's not a race that's what I always tell my daughter nothing is a competition and everybody's on their own journey like from a to b yeah take your time and enjoy the journey and the view because that's what we really I look back and I think all this crappy s*** happened and yeah it was f****** crazy but look how many I see so many blessings that have come out of it they're
The only RUclipsr I’ve followed that made it big and still stayed true to herself and her audience. So much respect for you mama Christina. So damn proud of you!!!
Faith the size of a mustard seed! You are such a witness of the power of God. May your blessings continue and your family continue to bring love through this beautiful property.
Out of everybody on the Internet you are the one person that is down to earth,Good hearted,Christian family. You guys deserve a good home! You worked hard for it ! I love your whole family your whole story! I’ve been here since day one and you deserve it!
Good for you girl. I just found you on RUclips and you have such great vibe I love your honesty
Girl, This was beautifully done. I had mad respect for you before.....( I already knew most of this, cuz I have been here awhile.) I love the dedication you have to your family, faith & dreams. ♥ My husband and I have started with NOTHING and with HARD work and SELF DISCIPLINE (with finances ) we have come so far. The way you are sharing your story with all of us it really does show how grateful & appreciative you are to have what you have. I wish you health & happiness...Love you sweetie ⭐
Christina, I started crying, I've followed you for a long time. You and Jeremy are a beautiful couple and family. I wish you all years of happiness in your new home!
Christina you are such an inspiration. Thank you for all you do♥️
This story resonates with me. Me and my fiance did similar, but unfortunately, unexpectedly, he passed away, and because of our frugality, I was able to stay in our home and afford it. I enjoyed your journey and love the channels. Thank you for sharing ❤
Bless your heart, Sandy!
Dang, talk about the ultimate journey of peaks and valleys. Can't even imagine surviving such a loss. See you like arts and crafts. My wife does those diamond art paintings. I call them "dippin' dots" (after the ice cream franchise of the same name). 🍨
So proud of how far you have come and how you stay down to earth Christina!!! ❤❤
Thank you Jules 🥹🩵
love seeing a good american hardworking family. you and your family are so deserving of the blessings.
So happy that you guys are able to fulfill your dream and I don’t think anyone would throw stones or sticks at having a nice beautiful new home especially if you can afford it and you guys did work so hard for it. I’m so happy for you guys.
I’m not even a minute in and I agree. You can’t just jump into the new house. There’s a story that leads up to the new house.
Blood, sweat and tears. Let’s go!
Christina, I love this for you. It’s so refreshing to see someone living a humble, realistic life.
THIS!!
Girl I wasn’t prepared to cry 😅
WOOT WOOT!! So happy for another video. You are the absolute best and deserve nothing but ❤
My husband and I live under our means. We are in the same house he bought as a late teen 24 years ago. We make probably 4x more than we did when we got married 15 years ago. The house is wonderful and it's ours. We are so grateful for all we have. Absolutely do not need anything more.
Christina, I am sooo immensely proud of you!! I’ve been following you since 2018 and have loved seeing you and your channel grow through the years. It's evident you’ve put A LOT of work into building this success for yourself and your family. Perhaps the most impressive part is how grounded, grateful, and true to yourself you’ve stayed throughout it all. You’re an inspiration to never lose faith and always keep working toward your dreams. You’re so deserving of all these blessings and more. Cheering for you always!! 🙌

WOW!!! You just get more & more beautiful with age!!!
Beautiful inside & out! ❤
When you're faithful with little, you will be given much ❤️ congratulations!
Congratulations Christina! I’ve watched you since the beginning & you’re one of the reasons I started true crime on my channel ❤🎉
You are truly a great person. Not wanting to flaunt your new home without letting us know where you came from. I just adore you. Thank you❤
So awesome you are letting us be a part of your lives . You go girl! Wish nothing but, the best for you!
Congratulations!! Ive been watching you for years.. Im so proud of you, youve come a long way!!
Sounds like you earned everything you have and busted your butt to make it. Our lives are the culmination of our choices. You decided and turned everything around. Very inspiring!
You are an inspiration! God bless you and your family! ❤️
I always appreciate how down to earth and appreciative you have always been and still are. Much love. ❤
Girl, you and your family totally deserve this! Hard work does pay off! ❤
I work in a women’s halfway house in CT. I would love to talk with you about some things that worked for you to succeed. This is Amazing! You are humble and deserve every bit as I know how difficult it is coming from prison. My women struggle to succeed (putting it lightly). Maybe if u have time?? Trying to save lives one woman at a time ❤
The book "The Alchemist" is something everyone seems to relate to. Whatever a person is looking for, it is likely right in front of them.
This truly makes me SO HAPPY! You have grown and blossomed into such a beautiful women/human on here, with us. Thank you for sharing your sacred life with us and showing us that we can become successful in life and grow from low places. 💙
I love your story. You guys are so grounded and such an inspiration to many. Love following you as you are just who you are. Dying to see your new home. Stay as sweet as you are.
Girl humble queen!! You deserve nice things too!! So happy for you to share your story. You deserve this and so does your family ❤
Thank you for staying true to yourself & to others. So happy for you & your family. Been here for many many yrs & love to see your growth! 🤍
Every time I watch one of your videos, I'm taken back to 5 years ago, when I first started watching you. I'm so very happy for you and your family! You've put in the work and consistency and passion. You've helped so many of us through so many things. Your story is so inspiring to me, I was in my first year when I first started watching you. I was 21 and in a different country, and now I graduated, I'm turning 26 next month with my baby girl due next month. Life is about changing and growing and evolving, and allowing people to evolve and your channel and your life story are definitely such a testament to that. Honestly, God bless you. You deserve this!
I love seeing your humility and loving this very simple house! Happy for you in your happiness and thankfulness! Love that you want to hang the picture in the new house!! Blessings to you!
Girl, what you are doing are MAJOR GOALSSSSS. I know I am just some random person on the internet, but I am proud of you. I know so many people personally who didn't or haven't come back from the same kind of stuff you came back from. You deserve ALL of it. You are a beautiful person, inside and out. Thanks for keeping us along on your journey!
Good job! Kudos❤❤❤Sending LOVE🎉
Christina, Congratulations and Best wishes to Jeremy and Yourself!! Love, Maureen
Christina what you did by saving up is way smarter and wiser than being impulsive. It’s good to see you again. Yes you have been blessed and I hope 🤞 u continue to be a blessing.
You so deserve this girl. You are a inspiration to a lot of people
I LOVE how you showed everyone.....we worked Hard for this......Amen. im So Happy for you n your family❤🙏
I can’t think of a more deserving person! Most down to earth RUclipsr that’s why I love you girl!
I can not tell you how much I admire you. You made it to the other side of a life I still struggle to reach after 2 years of sobriety and 5 years out of prison. The strength you have, the inner beauty, the realness you never cease to bring, you are so inspiring!
Really love that you gave us the back story before showing us your new home, and of course finally seeing the fuller picture of your old home 😁 I've been watching you for years, and you're one of the few RUclipsrs who have consistently stayed authentically yourself. And we love you for it! 🥰😁 I am so thrilled for you and your family with your new home. You deserve all God's blessings 🙌 The light and love of Christ is always apparent in you 🥰❤️ I cannot wait to see the next video 🤩 Sending love from Cape Town, South Africa 🥰
Delayed gratification feels better than instant gratification. It is also valued more; especially when it comes debt free. Congratulations, Christina!
I am rarely proud of people I never met, but so happy and proud of you. You deserve it all.
Wow this gives me hope. I’m 22 feeling the weight of the world on my shoulders barely surviving paycheck to paycheck with being a single mom of twins and most times I catch myself in the headspace of this just being what my life is and it’s so depressing. Watching this video really opened my eyes up to how you can go from nothing to living the life you and your family want with hard work. I respect the way you and your husband provide for your family even after all the struggles hopefully one day I’m in the position to do the same🥹🩷
Shinedown - "Fly From The Inside" lyrics:
Here is the weight on my shoulders
I am focused on what I am after
The key to the next open chapter
I’m crying! Thank you God! 😢😢😢 he really took care of you and provided! This is amazing! May the lord continue to bless your family!!! He is faithful! Christina you had faith the size of a mustard seed! 💕💕🥰🥰
You and Jeremy are such humble humans Christina. I am such a proud subscriber. Nobody deserves this more than you guys.
You deserve all of the success you've achieved. You're one of a kind....smart, beautiful, sweet, and have a heart of gold like myself. Love ya girl. ❤❤❤
Congratulations Christina. Absolutely enjoy your videos. You are so sweet and humble. People should learn from you. ❤❤❤❤❤
Hey, ik this is random bc you don't know me, lol, but your comment was under mine and I've got a question....Has she showed their new home on here or main channel??? If so, oh I did see it getting worked on, and then updates! But, the whole thing, all finished, house tour? Tia
@@amandaburkhalter36 as far as I know, she said she was going to post more on this channel and some on her main channel.
So happy to be resubscribed after everything was hacked. ❤
❤❤ Yes !! We love you! ❤
Tina D I am so freaking proud of you girl!...I've known you close to 30 years and you have stayed so humble thru everything that you have been thru and you have came so far! You deserve it all boo!💖 Summer😘
Dude. You forgot one of your eyebrows. LOL. I’m so proud of you. I’m a complete failure in life. 63 and never did what you’ve did to better yourself!!! ❤
I'm so very proud of you, Christina, for what you and your family have done. Sacrifices, hard work, and patience pays off!
I worked directly with the homeless and a lot of those guest were just coming out of prison. I also went to the academy to work in the prisons. I myself, was living in my car at one point for four months and it was a humbling experience. Thanks for sharing your trials turned to Triumphs. We need more of these life stories ❤
I love that you’re posting here again!
My 'first home' (that I owned) was about 1600 sq ft for me, ExHusb & 3 lil ones...and I loved that home! Hurricanes, living in a travel trailer in the front yard (with 4 in-laws, so I GET cramped). divorce and sale...So hard. Nothing at all like your first real home. Edit: to add, I should've waited to comment....I am with you on the land, for many reasons. If nothing else, things are wild...and land is such a blessing for who knows what, but NEVER a bad idea. The house is a bonus blessing! My sister and her in-laws and the whole family are on a huge property with their own homes...it's amazing. So happy for you all, you definitely beyond deserve it. Thank you for sharing!
Congrats Christina!! I've been here so long and I'm so proud of what you have accomplished ❤ So deserved ❤
What I love about this is that you've seen blessing after blessing ever since that day you gave God a mustard seed of faith in that prison bathroom and you've also found time to be grateful for what you do have every step of the way. Personally, I'm HONORED to have been here from the start of your RUclips career. ❤
Beautiful goddess ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
You quite literally worked your way from the ground up! Be proud of everything yall have accomplished!
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
I just wish I could hug you because you feel like family at this point and I’m just so proud of you.
Well deserved Mrs. Christina.....
May the Lord watch over your new home with your family and friends
Thank you for doing this video. This is absolutely my favorite Christina format.
Hey girl! Remember me? Its Danielle from the Netherlands! Long time it’s been but I have been lurking every now and then.
It’s been a busy hectic few years, some health situations and all that, but I am happy to tell you that I am studying again and will become a psychologist soon 😊. And well, you are a big part of that journey in me finding the strength and courage to do that at back then 28 years old lol. I am gonna be 30 in august of this year.
But yeah, im chasing dreams again. Just like you have been doing and succeeding obviously! Im so happy for you ❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉
Gosh girl! I am so incredibly, over the moon, up the mountains and back down, from Australia to Florida HAPPY for you! I am thrilled for you! This is what you have always wanted and your dreams did come true! And your family is joining soon and the kids can drive up to grandma and grandpa soon, like you’ve been talking about! You guys are making it happen and I seriously couldn’t be happier for you. Honest to god! You and Jeremy and the fam deserve this so much! That freedom must feel otherworldly!
I am SO EXCITED to see what you guys have done with the decor and everything. I have been patiently waiting, but im exploding over here, girl! So get your booty on that for us! 😂 And how are Jeremy and the kids and the whole family doing? Did Jeremy get his tanks out to the new home? And the BBQ haha!
But yeah, again. Im beyond happy and grateful for yall being able to make your dreams come true and build your forever home in that incredible place! And I just wanted to again say thank you. You know how much you mean to so many of us, and to me as well. You’ve truly inspired me with our chats to get back up and to find that fighting spirit again. Gave me a kind kick in the booty. And I found it alright haha. I am working towards my own dreams and I’m getting closer every day. I have passed everything for the last two years 😊 and will be working soon towards my degree in medical psychology. So yeah, I truly want to thank you for being you! You are an amazing human and I love you to pieces! ❤ You deserve it all!!
I hope to be able to send you some pictures soon. (Is the email I have still one you use?)
With big hugs and love from the Netherlands,
Danielle
Good for you too! 30 is so young! Grab the bull by the horns🎉🎉🎉
@@Dawn-f7g thats so sweet! Thank you 🙏🏻 ❤️ Got some bad health issues that progressed and in 2016 they basically said I would be on disability forever. I worked as a paramedic back then and destroyed my body because of my disease (similar to MS). Well after some time of recovery and acceptance, talking with Christina, I said screw that! Put my own recovery plan together and worked my behind off to get well enough to get back to studying. Back on track to make dreams come true! 😄 truly, anything is possible!
Thank you again ☺️
We did the same thing as you and your family. Worked our butts off, saved, and were able to move into our home. Ironically, we also have a used Lincoln and chickens. 😂 Great minds! 😊❤
Praying you and your family have a long lifetime of beautiful moments in your new home.
