Join us for a day in our life at our off grid cabin in Alaska! I'm finally undecorating from the Christmas holiday + Joe's continuing work on our master bedroom addition! Lexxy popped in for an afternoon cup of coffee. I love that she lives so close to us now & I can see her whenever I want. Makes my mama heart happy! Thanks for joining us for another video! Cheers...

Wow Look at Joe coming in clutch with the b roll on a solo outing. He is doing really good at filming himself!. Love seeing the channel grow!
Right?! I was impressed with his tire shots!!🤣👏🏻
I agree!!!!! He did GREAT!!!!!
Joe is really stepping up on filming! He gets a lot of nice shots too. Tina is there anything your Joe can’t do?😂. Knit 🧶 Crochet, Counted Cross Stitch, Embroidery, I’m picking all the old time girly things and joking of course! 😊😅 ❄️🩴🩴Love this vlog .♥️😆
Joe did a great job filming the early morning supply run, that sunrise was beautiful! I love seeing you and Lexxie have so much fun together ❤️
Thanks so much!! Loved Joes supply run shots!👏🏻👏🏻
I love how it sounds when people walk on snow. Love these snowy winter vlogs with the fabulous scenery (and sounds)! 💚💙
Glad you enjoy it!❄️❄️
The colder it is the louder the crunch-true
Same for me. I have a pc game called the long dark. In it when you walk on snow it sounds just like a person walking on snow. Sometimes I play the game just to walk around in the snow.
So nice to see you guys again. Glad the additions going well. Look forward to seeing the progress. Have a wonderful, blessed day.
Thank you! You too!😊
Once again, Tina, you've got me completely captivated, glued to my sofa, as I immerse myself in the breathtaking vistas of Alaska showcased in your videos. The way you seamlessly weave together your family's daily life with your impeccable cinematographic expertise is truly remarkable. It's hard to put into words just how much I appreciate the depth and richness found in each of your videos. You constantly surpass expectations and continue to elevate your content with every passing minute. Congratulations from all of us for your incredible talent and dedication! Greetings from all my family in Argentina and especailly from me, Danielle
Thank you so much Danielle! I appreciate that!!!💞
Well said.
Hi Tina, Joe and boys. I can’t believe how smart and well trained your dogs are, they are almost human. Love the cooking you and Joe do, I do get some good ideas and follow suit. Your cabin is so warm and inviting just makes one comfortable watching your videos. Take care and have fun, see you next video. ❤️❤️👍👍🇨🇦
Thanks so much Ron! The dogs are fun. Admittedly all the dogs we owned in the past (3), we never took the time to train them commands or even how to properly walk on a leash lol. When we got these two we made a commitment to do things differently. It’s been a lot of fun & this breed is just ridiculously smart so it seems easier. Thanks for watching!☺️
Nothing like having my morning coffee and watching your video.
Good morning!☕️☺️
Me Too!
Joe isn’t wearing shorts. Must be really cold. The addition is really looking good. He is so talented. Y’all stay safe.
Your editing is great. The hidden areas you get👍 The dogs are so well trained. I could never keep up with them,so it's fun watching you all with them. Love ya..Carlene💋
Thank you so much!💞
Both of the dogs are very smart. It amazing how smart they are. Y'all have done a great job. Which one is the smartest . We I say gunner. I love them both . I loved the video great job. As always be safe and God bless you and your family 💖 Tina do y'all have grits there.
They are just awesome 😊
We do have grits! And I love grits. Ohhhh so hard to decide which dog is smarter because they’re both extremely intelligent. Bradley has way more energy than Gunner. Gunner is def the more careful, safe, serious one where Bradley is just all fun. Often times he’ll jump for a ball without looking first type thing. 🤦🏼♀️😂
Love the dog training. They are beautiful. Good to see Lexi
Thank you!! 🐕 🐕
Tina, you always have the greatest content! Hugs to all!
Thank you so much!💞
Joe did a great job filming his trip for supplies,, etc. And that omelette looked to die for!! Yall are the best!! It was good to see Lexxi there as well. Until next time....love yall.
Thanks Susan!💞
Love your videos - the snow looks amazing - don’t envy the daily maintenance though! Am watching you from Melbourne - Australia.
Thanks for watching!💞
You a pear of Twinkies..love seeing you two together and you all ways make my day feel loved and hopefully..luz ya !💕😍😍 have a great week...!💖
So glad!💞
It's always so sad to see Christmas decorations put away! The addition is coming along nicely, looks really nice so far.❤
It really is! Thank you!💞
Love the bedroom. Really coming along. I agree when you take down the Christmas decorations the house looks a little naked. On the bright side daylight is getting longer here on Cape Cod. Looking forward to starting the garden. So nice Lexi got to come for a visit. Quite the haul of supplies. Nice. Enjoy your visit. Take care❤️🇺🇸
I can NOT hardly wait to garden this year!👏🏻🌱❤️
Always look forward to your videos, you and Lexy are too cute. Love your guys relationship, I cannot believe you had that much snow. Gunnar and Bradley are sooo cute, very smart dogs.
Thank you so much!!💞 She’s my best friend!
Good morning, HA, I was about to go to bed girl. Now here I am at 2:40am about to see what your up to, good thing I'm retired.
You have a night we have a morning at 10 am❤
Haha! Aw! Thanks for staying up to watch!!☺️
I make cornbread pretty often. I melt 1/2 stick of butter in my black iron skillet. When melted, I pour half of it in the cornbread batter, mix in and then pour the batter in the black iron skillet and bake. This is how my husbands’ aunt taught me to make it. I fix this when I make soup beans and cottage ham.
I add sour cream to my batter. Makes it really moist.
Yummy!😋
It cracks me up seeing Joe dressed in summer clothes and flip flops! I am like you Tina I am always cold in our Michigan winters. Love ❤️ you guys.
Everyone asked me before we moved here…if you’re always cold, why are you moving to Alaska? Lol. Well, not like I’m outside in a bathing suit haha! We keep the cabin toasty warm & I make sure to dress for the elements when working outside. Besides, the summers here totally make up for the winters!💞
Wow the doggies really learning their commands. Chili supper yummy ,glad to see the cats doing very well after all its been through.
Thank you, it makes me so happy too to see them happy again too!!😊
The Northern lights are definitely a God wink✝️💕Carlene
Oh yes! It’s a master piece in the sky every time! God is so good!💞
Great video today, it went well with my two cups of coffee sitting here with a wind chill of 7 degrees & temp at 14 way down here in Bama Country, like WTH!!!!! HEY Joe! Great solo run for supplies, Tina has taught you well...hehehe Thanks Tina, it always a pleasure to watch the adventures of your family and since you guys moved to Alaska it's better than ever. Drone working great too! Love, Peace & Prayers
Thank you friend! I was impressed with Joes shots! He does a great job and it’s so nice to be able to share the content of what he’s doing while I’m home doing school with the boys.💞
I love my Mr Heater, its great.hope it keeps you warm and toasty. Yummy chili.
Glad to see you are well and staying warm. Joe is rockin’ with that addition to get it done.
Really like the footage of Joe’s drive for supplies. And love watching Gunner and Bradley getting trained.
Thank you!☺️
Sad to see Christmas coming down but with your warm sense of decorating I’m sure we’ll soon see some pretty Valentines and Easter decor! The dogs are wonderful - there’s nothing like a well trained pet!😍🇨🇦
Good to see Lexi! You and Joe have Gunner and Bradley trained so well! The shiplap is looking really good!
Your doggies are so neat. He sure does well. Can I send Jazzy for a visit? lol the snow is beautiful, and you all handle it so well. You have a beautiful daughter. She looks like her mama. Have a great day. Hugs and blessing to you all.
Thank you!! Lexxy is my little mini me!💞
Have y'all be keeping up with how much snow has fallen this year . If so can you tell me how much y'all got so far. It's so beautiful.
Around 5ft or so!☺️
The new addition is looking great. I love the bird feeder on the window.
Oh this is the new thing around here! The cats spend all day in the windows!!💞
You need a leaf blower for cleaning up the snow in your truck 😊
Glad to see Asher doing so well.
Thank you, me too!💞
I can't wait to see what your master bedroom looks like. 1 of 1 Joe's done. I bet it's gonna look beautiful
Can't wait either!! We’re getting so close!👏🏻👏🏻
Absolutely fantastic. 💞 Your pups are so adorable & they listen very well...💞
Thank you so much!
Your very welcome
I play the game with my dog, we call it hide and treat. Sweet to see other's doing the same

My Christmas is still up, on the inside of the house. I did take the lights and decorations up, that were on the house and in the yard.
Beautifully trained dogs. I was laughing at how long each one was able to stare! (No blinking either) 👀

Thank you so much!😊
Wow it must take along to teach your two Dogs!,remember when I was in Adak Island, Alaska many years ago,alot if Snow& wind!Hello to Joe& the boys!
I loved watching you guys training the dogs! ❤
Thank you Amy! Just a glimpse into one of the things we regularly do with the pups. Ya know, it’s cold out side…always coming up with ways to entertain ourselves lol!🤣
Good video today tina
Thank you!🤍🤍
The music you choose for your videos is spot on! Really enjoy your channel. May the Lord bless you always!
Thank you so much!
Yes I hate taking down the decorations as well. It is so bland especially cuz I put them up in September and decorate for fall first...even my tree goes up with fall flowers on it. Then fall comes down after Thanksgiving and Christmas goes up. That is 4 months of beautiful decorations!!! Room is looking really good Joe is doing a great job!
Solo puedo decir: Yupiii ! Saludos desde la bonita Madrid. Odalis
Wish our dog listened like your 2 , nice to see lexi , enjoy all her videos too .
Joe is really doing a great job with your master bedroom addition! 👏Love watching your daily life, feels ljust like being part of your family! You've got such a loving and beautiful family!
Love you guys! 🥰🤗💓Thanks for another great video! 👍🙌👏
Thanks so much! 😊
Love the humor of you and Lexxy... love seeing Asher and Rusty having a grand old time!!! Quite the imagination of Parkers stuffed shark outfit!!! Another great weekly time of love and laughter...thank you
Now Kellen has a stuffed man. We have a new stuffed family in the cabin.😂
I love decorating for Christmas, but detest taking it down. I can’t imagine that much snow! I’m a southern gal for 70 years and for the first time in my life it’s ( - 6 in middle Tn.!! 😮 ) --- Btw your hair looks so pretty lately, Tina.
Love TN!! We almost moved there! Thank you for the hair comment, it’s been a lot easier to deal with since I chopped like 5-6” off!💞
@@HomeFreeAlaska 🥰
Bradley is so goofy 😂 ❤❤❤
I know!!! He’s a goof ball.🤣
😊 look at mr joe giving us solo run im so proud lol did good
When I lived in Alaska we would go out and find a young Birch Tree and cut it down. Put it in a coffee tin can or bucket, add sugar water with rocks to hold the tree. The tree would put out buds but we would leave it up until after Easter. Decorate it for Valentine’s Day and Easter with lights. It takes the place of the Christmas tree where it’s not so plan in the house and it’s fun for the kids.
That sounds like such a cute idea!💞
3hrs since you posted already 3400 views That speaks volumes Love your channel
Thank you!!!💞
Mother daughter time, oh, it's the best time ever 💕 ❤
Yes!!!💞
Oh that bird feeder 😂, my 4 cats love it, i keep on rewinding over and over for them, it's hilarious 😂.
Would you consider making a long cat video of the bird feeder on RUclips, like those cat tv.😸
Thank you for sharing your beautiful videos and for all the joy they bring with them.
God bless you all❤
My cats love it too lol!🤣
You create such beautiful videos!!! 🥰❤️🎶🙏🙏🎶❤️🐕🐕🐈⬛🐈 ❤️🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Hello Tina,Joe,and family. Those doggies were amazing. Thank you for an amazing video.
Our pleasure! Thanks for watching!☺️
I admire these people so!!!
Love the dog training ❤
Thank you!💞
Just a tip for ur chickens frozen water, buy a cheap crockpot fill with water on low 👍if u have electric handy to coop
Love the channel! Happy to see Lexie tell her to make more videos! I love your family God bless you all and thank you for being a good example and something decent to watch. Much love from Grand ledge, Michigan!
Our pleasure! Thanks for watching!💞
I got my calendar today!! Great job, Tina. Your pictures are beautiful!
Yay! Thank you so much for getting one!!!💞
I always hate when I have to take my holiday decorations down. It seems so bare without them. I also dread trying to stuff the decorations in the same bin. We all know the decorations never seem to fit correctly again! 😂. Like a clown car! Take care guys! Stay warm!❤
Yep! They never go the same way twice LOL! Always end up stuffing & shoving! I made a promise to myself that this year, I’m buying some proper bins and ornaments storage containers!🤣
WHY is that??? I end up buying extra totes that come up with a lot more space than I bargained for and then somehow, the next season, I still dont seem to have enough totes???
@@d.martinez-rodriguez333 this!!!!
Hi great video can’t wait to see the bedroom when it’s all done we have just got snow in the uk 🇬🇧 nothing like what you guys get ❤
Can't wait either! So close!👏🏻
😂 you had me staring with the eye command.
HAHAHHAHA!!!!!!🤣
Love seeing Lexie.
The dog training session was very impressive.
Joe’s morning run was well done.
Once again, your content is awesome
Thanks so much! It’s unbelievably nice that Joes willing to film what he’s got going on, while I’m at home doing school. It allows us to share different perspectives of the day.🤍🤍 Thanks for watching!
Joe did an amazing job teaching the dogs to obey commands.
TINA! Incredible transition at the beginning of your video with the truck and shed! So good girl!
Thanks so much!! That whole beginning segment with Joe was all him. He recorded all of that & got all of those shots himself!💞
I just enjoy watching your family. Your a great cook so is Joe. Love those dogs they are so smart and well behaved I have a chihuahua she is about 5lbs a big baby and is great with everyone. Love what Joe is doing to your new room so far. I noticed kellen has the nicest handwriting when he does his homework your doing such a good job with the boys. All my kids are gone im alone but they visit alot. Here in Kentucky last week we have had at least 8 inches of snow here everyone panics im use to snow im originally from Michigan. I quess im rattling off here. But I watch you at night when im in bed it really relaxes me keep doing what your doing your a great mom and wife. Sometimes I feel like I'm there with you and would love to have you as my daughter we have so much in common. Sorry I talked your ear off but I enjoy you family. Take care joanne
Hi Joanne! I loved your comment. Your lil pup sounds sweet! I can’t imagine the days all my kids are out of the house.😬 I don’t think I’ll know what to do with myself! Thank you so much for watching our channel! I’m so glad you enjoy our videos!💞
I enjoy your videos so much Tina and it was great to see Joe working on your addition cant wait to see the final result sp happy Lexxy continuing her education as i saw on her channel😊
Thanks so much! I’m super excited for Lexxy!💞
Those dogs are awesome!!!
Amazed by Gunner and Bradley, they are trained so well by both of you. Enjoy watching all of the projects and activities you do.
Thanks Peggy!😘
Lexxy is so beautiful! I hate taking down Christmas decorations, the house feels so plain afterwards. I don't put a tree up anymore as we live so far out no one ever sees it, and my husband won't help so its just too much to put up and take down myself. The neighbors are so far away they don't see it either and it's not visible from the road. Our big windows are on the side of the house. I just love your dogs, they are so handsome and smart!
This was a great video with the whole family. Thank you for all the effort you put in for an interesting story. God bless you guys.
Glad you enjoyed it!💞
Luv your shenanigans!
Im in the uk, you have got me on the sweet leaf drops, just got the toffee flavour ❤.
Hope you enjoy! That one’s my fav!💞🌱
So much to love about this video. Great filming from Joe on his trip into town. Such clever, well trained dogs. Parker's maths would give me a migraine 😂. Brilliant editing. Appreciate all the work that went into this xx
Parker’s math does give me a migraine!😂
Bedroom looking good with wood siding going up. Glad you fixed the problem of you being warm in there when finished.. You're lucky to have a husband who can do so many things & shows how much he loves you. Love the interaction between you & Lexi. Wish my daughters' would have trained there dogs like you have. One daughter's husband let's their dog up on furniture, including back of sofa, & she's moved to bite her when she tried kissing her husband. Dog is spoiled & she's jealous of affection she shows the husband. Not good. Look forward to your videos & seeing the boys learning & outside having fun.
Yeah we’ve never let our pets on our furniture. I just can’t stand all the hair on my clothes. And when I see people’s cats on their counters and kitchen table it totally grosses me out lol!
I've been watching you for awhile now, just love your videos, there so peaceful..Tell your daughter to embrace the time she has with mom
I never had that with my mom. Regrets. Anyway, I'm looking forward to some more . I like watch you all day. It brings like I said peace into my living room
Thank you!☺️
Okay, i think its time for Joe to have his very own channel, he could call it, "Just Joe", catchy huh?
I absolutely LOVE your dogs, remind me again what kind are they? And, the training you've given them is so much fun to watch, my favorite, is when you say, "Eyes", they stare and don't move a muscle, WOW!
Love seeing your Birdfeeder too, as you have some beautiful little birdies to watch.
Your chickens were adorable all sitting up there watching you.
Blessings,
Laurel ❤
“Just Joe!” Haha love it! Our pups are Belgian Malinois.☺️
That Asher song. Lol! 😂
Great job Watson family 👍💪
Great job filming Joe,really great work. Tina this video was packed with a little of everything we really loved it,omgsh Bradley and Gunner.that was amazing ❤you all
Thank you!!💞
Love your videos! Did Rusty stop spraying after being neutered? Thanks for all your hard work filming, editing and putting great videos out for us to enjoy. The Watsons rock! Good to see Lexi and Ollie!
Yes!!!! So far so good! He has not sprayed once since being neutered.👏🏻👏🏻
Love you guys, your family and values. Expectacular scenery saludos from Tropical Panamá 🇵🇦
Thank you so much!💞
Those those dogs are truly amazing!
Thanks for another great video ...the pups are so clever ❤
The chilli and corn bread looked amazing too Tina 😋
Xx
Thanks so much! 😊
GREAT JOB, JOE! Great filming!
Thank you very much!
Keep posting great videos .I’m watching you from Morocco ❤❤❤❤😊❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you! Will do!🤍
Enjoyed the video. Can you come train my bulldog😂😂 she knows how to lay down and give hi-five , but that’s it
