    Hi Mike and Lyssa that is so awesome. My brother was a Veteran served in Vietnam and my youngest son is in the Air National Guard and went to Iraq. Makes my heart happy. I know they appreciate it so much. Love this. And the history. Love the quilt it is beautiful. Great looking breakfast. That's nice you got to have breakfast with them. The murals are beautiful. Thanks for the tour of the town. Amazing. And the money to the Booneville School I know they appreciate it also. You got a lot accomplished in August. Have a great day and God Bless DD5

    This was awesome. They were so appreciative. Hopefully, next time, all the donations go to them. It certainly would make it less complicated and be a cause that most can stand behind. If I donate to a school, it would be a local school, but I will donate to a veteran cause regardless of the location.

    I have to comment. I am a recent widow of a Vietnam veteran and the V.A. here in my area really treated him with so much love and respect. Than they helped me after he died. I love the V.A. and all of the members. The war brings them all together and they all need the support. Thank you for showing the check giving to the V.A., it made me cry. This is a great video including the music. One of my favorites💯❤‍🩹 God bless you all. 🙏

    Wonderful video 😃 You guys had a crazy busy August, as always, helping your framily. Looking back, it's amazing that you found any time at all to work on the shouse,. I'm loving the colour Lyssa chose for it. For some reason, when you were in the DIY store a few weeks back, I assumed the black paint was for Talkn and Jacob's room, and thought nothing of it, as when my son was 12, he wanted his bedroom painted black (a wish that went unfulfilled), but now I see its fir the outside, its going to look incredible 😃 Loved the interview and tour at the VA Post. Its very similar to our Royal British Legion organisation in the UK. A very worthwhile cause.💕

    Michael: when cutting down trees, you have been making your back cut too low. After you make the "V", cut the back cut about half way up the V to make the tree fall in the direction of the V, If you cut too low, the tree will fall in the direction of the most weight (how it is leaning).
