Your wedding pictures are THE CUTEST!! 🥰🥰🥰😍😍😍
Beautiful wedding minus the sand fleas! Love your stories. Thanks for sharing.
Love the story and the pictures. Yes she is a beautiful bride 👰♂️. Both of yall look amazing in them.
Love the wedding pics and story!! Very attractive family but I’m a fan of clean shaven … very handsome
Beautiful story, adorable children and gorgeous pictures!
I just love blueberries, so I planted 2 twigs(2 future blueberry bushes). At first, they were sad looking, and I think I planted them in too shady of an area becuz they weren't changing, producing leaves, or growing like I thought. So I moved them to a sunnier location, along with my 2 raspberry (twigs) bushes, and they're growing much better and getting some little leaves, too. So glad they didn't die.
Great video, Todd. Beautiful wedding pictures.
HAH love your story. We got hitched in Lake Tahoe. 1st we got stuck in the hotel elevator and almost missed our own wedding. 2nd the directions to our outdoor wedding were really vague and we got lost. 3rd we had to jump a guard rail to walk back to a clearing that overlook Emerald Bay on Lake Tahoe. It was breathtaking. We are 29 yrs in now and laugh about it all!
Loved seeing your wedding pictures! Thank you for reviewing the olight, I had seen these on another you tubers channel and looked at their website but they are fairly expensive and while I like the recharge feature I wasn't sure what would happen in a power outage situation, with your review and discount code I might try one and see if I like them. :)
Dig a ditch around the perimeter of your gardens, strainght down
No grass will grow into garden and can mow over edge
Ive done that to all my flower and strawberry gardens, works great no more weeding
Spouce says tighten up your linkage on you boat
Hope this helps
We got a small piece of sheet metal maybe 2x3 ft and we put it up against the edge of the wood chips my husband burns the weeds on one side and then we move it down and so forth. The metal never got too hot for just my garden gloves.
Thank you so much for sharing your pictures they are beautiful.
Damn, time stood still for ya'll. You both dont look a day older then when you got married. Love your stories. I also thought it was a really nice, and thoughtful thing you did by leaving a few milkweeds around for the Monarchs. 🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋
Love stories, love - love stories and your love story is beautiful. ❤❤❤
Thanks for sharing. It was a beautiful wedding. ❤
AVON Skin So Soft is used to keep the sand fleas from biting. I’m a native Floridian. CVS pharmacy sells it in their stores. They don’t bite when the sun is bright but in early mornings and late afternoons, they can be horrible near the beach.
I have started using Growers solution weed fabric as a border around my beds. You can mow right up to it and water and air pass through. Only tip is to put the staples at the edge to keep the mower from grabbing the fabric. I don't put mulch on the fabric to keep weed seeds from sprouting on top of fabric. Living Traditions homestead uses it because they have high weed pressure in Missouri. Oh, also, don't cut the fabric, use a torch so that it doesn't unravel😉
That's what we have, love it. Although I think we need bigger holes, it's hard to plant into ours.
Thank you for sharing the Wedding Picture's and the funny Sand Flea Stories , made me giggle :)
Bricks are great. You can bring your lawnmower over the brick and have a nice edge
Awww, you two make me want to squeeze you tight and never let you go. Both of you are so sweet.
Perfect. Love y'all!
Thx for the story. Blessings, julie
Todd, enjoyed your video. Nice that you smoked as well as Rachel. I enjoy your videos so much.💕💕
Hey Guys watching again as it came up- Todd I would be putting a border around that bed- I honestly don't know the last time I weeded my garden, but that looks like too much hard work.
Loved the stories, thank you
Do a border similar to what you did around the garden.
You can plant flowers, herbs, bulbs...
You may continue my list.
The possibilities are endless!
Peace on your doorstep!
Y’all have a beautiful family i love your photos.
Enjoyed your "beginning" stories and photos! Helpful hint for your blueberry beds; make a rock or brick border. I helps with weed eating if you make it to where it slants inward, rather that vertical. Good luck!
Without using harsh chemicals, I go around the border of my porches, and a rock garden by spraying a solution of white vinegar, Epsom salts, and Dawn (blue) Dish Detergent, spray early on a sunny day and by mid afternoon all the grass and weeds are browned and dying. I do this a couple times a year to keep new weeds from coming back, also between the gaps between the step stones in front of house, along edges of driveway. It only kills what you spray and nothing surrounding the area.
Love stories beautiful wedding, and as for your pine trees try some pine needle tea full of C in all kinds of goodness... Thanks so much for sharing God bless you both and your family...
Maybe you can find a local source for used bricks? I really like them as a bed trim, and I find it doesn’t really get in the way of mowing too much.
You can get a pair of cut proof gloves to use with that knife to protect yourself. For the weed problem, I woud use a woven weed barrier cloth.
Lovely!it's usually the wife that tells that story!
Surround the mulch with native perennials for the pollinators. Some choices are common milk weed, straight species echinacae, rudbeckia, short goldenrod, asters, monarda. Now you can forget about using the sickle.
Delightful video❣️
From FL, and we call those No See Ums! They’ll definitely eat you alive 🤣 Such beautiful photos! Thanks for sharing your story! ♥️🌹♥️🌹
Got them in central Oregon too
Beautiful couple you guys are ! Blueberry 🫐 & your pine trees look great. You can make yourselves some pine needle tea 🫖
Handsome couple for sure ♥️♥️
Awww too cute! ❤️ Kristy in Missouri 😃🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I use an all natural weed killer around all my beds, it only kills the weeds it touches. It basically dehyrates the plant. I even spray in my flower beds on weeds that come up through my mulch. It won’t harm the soil if you want to plant in the area you’ve previously sprayed. Mix one gallon cheap white vinegar, 1/2 a container of cheap regular salt and 1/4 cup of cheap dish soap. Mix in a sprayer and spray the weeds early in the morning so the sun works to dehyrate the plant. Make sure you spray all the leaves. You may need more than one application to kill tough weeds. I found the recipe on the youtube channel Acre Homestead.
Wowza! * Rachel looking good in a bikini and hunky Todd visibly treating her like a princess, amongst other fab photos. Thanks so much Todd for sharing your wedding photos and memories. What a beautiful wedding! Sorry I laughed about the sand fleas but it was the funny way you told the story. I really enjoyed this video Todd, because it again shows your close, loving relationship. That's why I watch you two!
I love your story. My husband and I were married on the beach in Half Moon Bay, dressed to the hilt but barefooted.
Ahh, I also never knew you were not married for ages and whose kids are whose? I think everyone is a little curious. Thanks
I live in Alabama & we have a lot of family in Florida around Fort Walton & Destin. Anyway, we call the sand flea's "No See 'ems" & they're horrible!!
We do have bad sand fleas, but Pensacola Florida is a beautiful place to live.
An idea for your blueberry edge - comfrey as a rhizome barrier works well. [EdibleAcres has some great notes on this, check out their video "Comfrey Leaf Harvest - Follow Up Two Weeks Later"]
Beautiful wedding photos! Love the clean shaven face; the beard…not so much!!!! What a handsome guy! Rachel is still as amazing now as she was in 2009!
You ARE a lucky man, Rachael is beyond gorgeous!
Yes I am!
Charles Dowding has such a clean cut beautiful garden. Check him out for how he has clean cut edges.
Thanks for sharing Rachel & Todd 5-9-2022👍🏽♥️., I still have those friends to it’s fun. Never heard of Sand Flea’s the Sand can get Flea’s how is that Todd
My bestest cool people..I love your life....keep well.Love from Kenya Africa.
You can try vinegar, that what I use on my driveway weeds.
I have been watching for quite a while.. these two are so hip attractive and cool to me!! I WOULD LOVE TO KNOW THEIR AGES if anyone knows. Please. I pray I age this well. They are so inspiring to me. Homestead and relationship GOALS!!
I’d like to hear the story of how you met and fell in love. You are a beautiful, sweet couple.
my wife and I married in June of 2009 as well.
Beautiful except for “no see um”s yep! As I Florida resident, they can run you off the beach fast!
Todd we call them Sand Flies over here & yes they are so pesky & I come out in big itchy lumps from them so I have to take anti-histamine tablets when I go fishing. What a FABULOUS video you did so well- the photos were just amazing, how gorgeous you both looked & wow how tiny is Rachel's waist. Have a great day. Cheers Denise- Australia
Lol I’m from south east Georgia and we call them Sand gnats
How do you keep birds from eating the blueberries?
When I moved into my house in Chicago. I wanted to be respectful of the bugs. I found a recipe of weed killer that can be sprayed onto the weeds. It’s dawn, salt, and vinegar mixed into a bottle with hot water. It takes the weeds out without harming native insects.
Thanks for sharing with us the photos and the story of your wedding. Loved it. You guys are such a cute couple. Ever thought of going without a beard again, Todd?
😁💡👍
Thought you were going to show a couple pictures.
Where did you get that green hat sir
I have a rice knife. Now I know what to use it for!! Lol
Todd you are such a handsome guy. Why do you hide behind the beard?😉 Rachel is gorgeous. Both of you are beautiful inside and out.
What about using a no cut glove?
❤
In Canada we call those sand fleas, no-see-emms yes they do bite
In Missouri we experienced chiggers which are a mite, also awful .
HALF MOON EDGER
Hello
Diesel might help with the weeds
🤗💞
Me and my husband been married 31 years
My uncle uses a motorised weed remover (you just hold it while walking around). It works well for stuff like this and doesn't require you to bend down and manually chop it off!
I’ve only heard one story.
Use gloves with it....stronger grade of gloves
Yes! :)
First
👏🏆🤓
Why don't you use Dandelions?? You should look them up
We made some jelly one time, but for the most part, we leave them for the bees
I will ask my husband about the boat, he is a marine engineer. Hope Incan help.
We're taking it into a shop tonight, to have the linkage checked out, and make sure it's really "sea worthy".
My blueberry aren't doin well last year the stink bugs infest my blueberry trees and garden I read there going to get worse
You look much better shaved...lol
Were you married before your children were born? Thought maybe this was a vow renewal ?
I was also curious. If all those children are both of your children, why did you decide after that much time to get married? It does seem like a good idea, because I've heard of people being kept out of emergency rooms or whatever because they were not quote family unquote. Anyway you both looked gorgeous and too young to have kids that old!
They had children from prior relationships/marriages.
Just curious why a weed eater wouldn’t work? Sorry new to your Channel
It could work, but it might fling wood chips everywhere. It's actually pretty satisfying to do it by hand sometimes.
