I've never felt the feeling of community and love as I did when my husband became permanently disabled from stroke. People brought food to me while he was in the hospital, drove my kids, cleaned, yard work, fundraisers, visited at the hospital. It was crazy!!! Such LOVE. I could never ever thank people enough for all the support they gave and continue to give for years!!!❤❤❤
I am single and almost 67 and love your blogs. Makes me feel like having a family. It is very hard for me to ask for help and seems like the older I get it gets harder to seek out help. Two men from church just came over in the fall and cleaned my cutters. The young man next door wanted to know if I had Christmas lights he could put up for me. Which I didnt have because I cant put them up, (I bought some on sale for next year though). It's hard asking for help as I dont to be a burden as i get older.
I live in the craziness of New York City and going to work everyday riding the subway and walking through the streets of Manhattan definitely makes you a little harsh as a person and on how you live life. Sometimes it desensitizes you. Seeing the life of people like you guys that live in a small town reminds me not everything has to be lived as a hustle and I do like the hustle, idk if I could live in a small town, but seeing you guys do reminds me life is more beautiful and that there is more to it. Maybe one day!
You're so right... We do seem to forget when we're trying to get through each day in the hustle and bustle in NYC... We're always in a rush and Moody lol... I try my best not to be that way but you do get caught up... I work for MTA and I've come across both wonderful people and the rudest as well... You just have to learn how to handle yourself no matter where you are in life cuz there's nice and rude people everywhere... In small towns and big cities 😊✌️💕
So fun! I'm an old friend of Savannah Moore's (of the Moore the Merrier) and I saw all your subscribers' comments on their video and had to come see you guys! Thanks for keeping Christ centered in your vlog!
We live in a small town rural area. We are in the country and our neighbors are amazing. Last winter when we had a bunch of snow come and my man had just had his first foot surgery and I’m not comfortable driving our late 1970 Chevy plow truck by myself but our our farmer neighbor came over with his tractor and big snow blower. It was awesome of them to do that. We love our neighbors!
I’m a widow and have been for almost 8 years now. I am so very Blessed to have a God who always meets my needs, big or small. Thanks for putting him first in your lives for all to see.
Neighbors helping neighbors is how people survive in times of need. As a Texan that survived Harvey I can attest to the awesomeness that can be achieved when people help each other out.
Years ago my ex and I lived in Yakutat and even though I was young and pg and missed my family in the lower 48 I loved the closeness we had with the FAA and Weather Bureau families. WE had only two ways in and out of there, fly or boat. So even though I hated flying I got a lot of in while living there. Spent a few weeks in Fairbanks but knew I couldn't handle it and so returned to the lower 48. Oh also spent a few months in Bethel, Ak. Sorry was one of the worst places I ever lived again stuck flying as the only way in or out. But all in all Alaska is a great place to live but you better like very short summers and very long winters. Sorry if i sounded negative because I am so glad I got to experience Alaska. My favorite place to visit was Juneau, awesome place.
Your talk of small town community coming together is very alive in my community. On December 18 my small town lost 3 people (mother 42 yrs old, son 18 yrs old, daughter 9 yrs old) to a house fire. The father and one teenage son made it out with burns. The community within a few days raised over $70,000 for this family and it is still rising. So a small community is truly a blessing. When one has to fight we all fight to help them.
I'm glad Bert went to get checked and no broken bones.The love you guys extend to others God has blessed you take care I enjoys all you show thanks for sharing your lives and your faith.i love you all God Bless
I live in a very small town. I love the small town feeling. I grew up in a nice small town. When my dad was diagnosed with cancer people came out of everywhere to help. When he died the community support and respect for him was so amazing and almost overwhelming. I should mention he was our local fire chief.
I am glad that you went to the Doctor Bert. Your leg looks nasty and very painful. Glad nothing is broken! Follow Dr's orders! Sometimes it is hard to let others help you. But it helps them to feel good and give people a chance to give back. I totally get having a hard time accepting/asking for help. I live in a large suburb in NW Illinois. I think small towns are probably better for people helping each other as people get to know each other. That is more difficult here.
Bert I’m so sorry you fell, it’s great you have ppl that have reached out to help you in a time you needed it. I hope your leg heals soon, take care. Love to you and your family.
Small community doing good for others will come back to you. Ive been taught you dont do good for someone just to get something in return. And i can tell yall do for others because of the love yall have in your heart.
Dear Bert and Jessica!! You are a Blessing in our lives!! Thank you so much for being loving, caring kindhearted people that you are!! You are so blessed to have such wonderful people, your family, your church family, and neighbirs, in your lives too!! You are very lucky to have a family so close. Most of our family is either in Chihuahua City, Chihuahua Mexico or in Prescott, AZ. Getting time for a visit is quite tough for us since we run a An Allergy Asthma office in El Paso. We just subscribed to The Moore The Merrier and look forward to following their vlogs!! Bert, We are so glad you went to the doctor to get your leg checked out!! That's an impressive bruise!! I'm glad you are healing!! My husband empathized with you!! He had a similar accident about 5 years ago!! Thank God you are OK!! Many prayers for a quick recovery!! Jessica, we were working when you had the premiere. I clicked on the vlogs and it showed the live chat and the premiere would start in 5 min. Since that was my first time seeing a premeire, I noticed the glitches. Would you want to go live?? Just a thought!! Sending hugs and love your way!!! Take care!! Pamela
We live in a smaller town and when I had emergency back surgery 7 years ago, neighbors on both sides of us kept an eye on me in the afternoon and evening while my husband was at work. Every time one of them went out to store they checked to see if I needed anything. It was awesome to know they were there for me if I needed them.
Bert, I'm glad you went to the Dr. and that nothing is fractured. Prayers for a speedy recovery. I live in a small farming community. Love rural living. I could never live in a large City. I must of missed the premier, and I watch all your vlogs.
Curious-If you had a break down in your car do you have a coat and blankets in your car just in case? Yes community around here is like that. Especially churches help so much. Yes sometimes hard to receive. Teach your kids also to receive.
Small communities are awesome!! I also live in a small community where if someone is hurting or in need everyone is there. One of my coworker's husband had medical issues recently..we pulled together for a benefit in our community. Everyone in the community showed up and showed up big!! We also live in a rural area...my uncle and grandpa plow the roads and people's driveways just because.
We live in Circleville, Ohio. We have lived in our home for 18 years and I will say we have some of the very best neighbors. From work, church and those around us, we're for them as well as they for us. But yes I think small towns are that way for the most part, but I also believe you reap what you sow... God Bless Happy People!
I really enjoy your vlogs. I find myself looking forward to your new videos. Which is new to me because I never really go into watching daily vlogs. You have an amazing family. A beautiful home. Your channel is pure and has a great message, famILY. Thank you for sharing your world with us.
I started following this family recently and I am hooked!!! As a new subscriber I will like all the videos I see posted! They explain everything so well and they truly do love their happy peoples!! I’m proud to be one of the happy peoples I always feel like they are so true to the love they feel for us all! 💕
I was born and raised on Kodiak Island and I now live in Phoenix, of all places lol. But yes, the thing that I miss the very most is the sense of community that accompanies small town life. Plus, Alaskans are just amazing people anyway. Down here in the lower 48 everyone is in such a rush and nobody has any time for anything or anyone else beside themselves and while I understand, I also miss the motherland like crazy. Alaska is truly a special and magical place. I lived in Fairbanks for a couple of years like 100 years ago when I was in college (the first time around, lol) at UAF and my boyfriend at the time was in the air force so I spent a lot of time in both North Pole and on Eielsen AFB, too. So I TOTALLY understand and wholeheartedly agree with your opinions about small town communities. I ❤ AK with all my heart!
I am so glad you are feeling better Bert and so happy that nothing was broken! That was a really bad bruise. That man that plowed your property was so wonderful to help you out, but you help everyone too and that’s why people reciprocate, anyone that helps people, their good deeds never go unnoticed! I had no idea that was your Sister who got engaged, she is absolutely beautiful! God Bless you and Jessica and your beautiful family! ❤️
Sorry Bert got hurt. His leg looks bad, but it is healing. Will look much worse before it's gone. God made you slow down. Hope the rest of the year goes well for you all.
It is surely a small community thing! I have family in some of the little towns in Central Maine and everybody does for everybody, no questions asked. And longer time residents don't keep any tabs, or track of "favored owed" they just do and know that when they are in need, it will be done for them. Continued prayers for the healing of the knee!
👍👍 so glad you went to the doctor, better safe than sorry! I love the way Bert shares his heart ♥️I am also very thankful for the way you guys not only share your faith but you guys live it!
Glad that Bert went to the Docs for his knee situation. What a relief to hear that there weren't any broken bones. Such a blessing that Jessica & Lance came over to help with the wood supply and your neighbor coming by to plow out your driveway. My husband grew up in the country and I grew up in a suburban city in SE Michigan and we both want to live in a smaller community. I don't like the hustle & bustle of the city anymore. I never really have. I always used to tell people I'm a country bumpkin living in the city. Hope you feel better soon Jessica. Going to check out the Moore the Merrier RUclips channel now. God Bless you all!!!
Wrap your knee, elevate, ice, have a couple of Aleve and do some flex exercises to get that knee better...FYI...get a blue bag you can chill and Wrap that knee! Walk and Flex...Walk and Flex...Walk and Flex....As always, Hugs from Kennebunk Maine
Oh my the healing does look worse, love watching the videos from ND here. Stay warm and get some rest Jessica. Adore the kids and your way of life ♥️⭐️
During our trip to Alaska people were very nice in Canada and Alaska. Later right after driving into Washington state someone kept laying on the horn behind us on a back road. Which made us miss Canada and AK.
Feel better soon Bert! I think you have officially become my favorite youtubers after watching your family over the past year! I think doing a live every once in awhile would be awesome, can’t wait!
It’s nice to see vids of the Alaskan town. All the TV shows only show the Alaskan wilderness. This is neat to see another side of Alaska. I love ur vids. Great family :)
Cold weather ohhhh, how i wish we can experience that,,,snow..even for a month or two .....happy new year happy family!!!!from us, happy family of Philippines!!!
I wished we had a community like that. My husband and I where just talking about how we wished we had a more of a friendly/helpful community. Part of the reason why we moving away because we don’t fee like this is home, and not where we should be anymore
I'm so glad nothing to serious with your knee. May God Bess you with a speedy recovery. I live in a small rural county in Virginia. My neighbor came over and hooked up a generator during our last major power outage and the same neighbor came over and vacuumed our leaves. I'm disabled and my mom is 70 and works 7 days a week delivering news papers.
Praise God for good family and neighbours. I'm so glad there's nothing broken. Healing takes time though, Bert. I hope you're not getting a cold Jess. You're all in my thoughts and prayers.
Bert, I’m glad nothing is broken and that you saw a dr. It warms my heart when I hear stories of people helping when you need it most. God bless them. And I also love to give, but need to learn how to receive which I find a lot harder. Jessica, I hope you don’t catch a cold but you know yourself. And I just adore your beautiful children. I love their hearts. You two are raising kind caring people with the love of God. I will check out that other family you mentioned and Leave a comment. Have a wonderful day!
I live in Northern Tucson. We go up to Northern Arizona to a small town in the mountains called Alpine. No lights or stop signs. There is a gas station, thrift shop, convenience store, a bar and a couple restraunts. It's about a 40 minute drive to the closest grocery store, Safeway, and an hour and a half to Walmart. One day we will move up there to get away from the bustle of Tucson. People are so nice and welcoming.
My community is the same way. We help each other out. My grandpa lived in North Pole till he passed away a little over a year ago. Have yet to go up to his property that is now my fathers. It was by the Santa House is what he told us.
I feel that, it was that way back in anchorage growing up... it was a community of people that helped each other, when my dad had his reoccuring cancer's our neighbors plowed and shoveled for my parents and even mowed their lawn so my mom could focus on his care. I never felt unsafe until I left a couple years ago. It is great that your sister and her fiance and your neighbor were able to do that because that is what true community is about!
In April of 2018, we had a scare - our furnace had a part that broke, and so it kept running and running and running. Right after supper one of our smoke alarms went off (picking up on too much heat coming out of a vent). We got the kids out, got the dog and cat in the truck, all while calling 911. As the first fire truck showed up, so did our neighbors - in huge numbers. One to take care of our dog, a family took our kids to their place and had a “party” to distract them, ladies showed up to sit with me, men showed up to help my hubby - as we were wondering where the source of the smoke was. 2.5 hours later the FD confirmed it was the furnace and it was fixed the next day. But we were surrounded. Coffees brought, hugs and prayers shared, kids and animals cared for. We live in a small village. I’m the same - I prefer to give than receive, but my gosh, did we feel loved and cared for. Praying you feel better Bert.
We found the Air Force chapel community to be much like you describe. We are in the process of finding and building Community here in Palmer. Always love seeing a new video from all of you. I missed the premier.
Hello my new favorite RUclips family!! I've missed you guys. I've spent the past few days going through old videos and trying to catch up. Glad Bert is on the road to recovery. Congrats to Bert's sis( sorry I forget her name, sometimers kicking it)on her engagement. I love the live on RUclips because I don't have any social media and I love the chance to get to chat with you and the family Jessica. Your so stinkin sweet and your family always brightens my day. Love you guys and God to see y'all.
There are around 90,000 people in the "town" I live in, Duluth Minnesota. It's a total small town feel here. Just today when I was returning from my errands I saw an older neighbor gentlemen struggling to clear the snow from his sidewalk and stairs. I happen to have fallen on an icy curb last week and separated some ribs from my sternum. I am unable to shovel currently so when I got around the block to my house I rushed into my house and sent my husband down to help the man out. I've never seen him before, I don't know his story, but I know that we should help those who need it, no matter what. Don't ever feel bad for taking help either. You get what you have given. 💙
You were scaring me when you kept letting go of the wheel. Especially with the slick roads. Be careful please.Glad your husband is healing up well. Nice family you have.
Love watching your videos! Your children are so cute and loving. It is wonderful on how you are bringing them up. Always feel good after watching your family vlogs. 😊
I live in a very small, very rural town. I love it. There is a sense of unity. Recently, a family lost there home to fire. My church held a an auction and dinner, and raised over $12,000. I could name example after example. I love small town living.
2nd video watched. What a model family. I'm smiling as I text. Feel better Burt. God Bless you all. Excuse me now, I'll probably binge watch the rest of your vids, lol. Stay warm guys.
hope your knee is feeling better soon ,, just found your channel and binge watching to try and catch up quickly.. loving the videos, so so far from my daily life (living in sunny So Cal).. your kids putting the bowls in the freezer made me smile, wouldn't it be easier to set bowls outside front door of house to freeze faster
I live in a big city, but in the apartment building where I live, there are very special people who help others out with gestures of kindness without asking of anything in return. Quite often my family is in need of a helping hand as sometimes happens, just like it has to others at some point. Usually these special people will donate their children clothes that they have outgrown to our family, as we are on a fixed income, and when we are done with them, we donate them to a local charity. We have often even received gifts of food from them too.
Love your channel! Have gotten several hematoma’s and also several surgeries on my knee and I recommend kinsology tape. You can look up how to tape to help break up the blood clusters and also to give support.
I liked the live feed, but got kicked off it so I watched it later. I’m glad Bert’s leg is doing better! I live in a smaller town, but unfortunately it doesn’t have the feel of the North Pole. I think it is super sweet that your sister, brother-in-law, and neighbor came to help you guys out. You don’t realize how much you do until you are injured and then can’t accomplish much at all. I’m glad your home is super well insulated because we would freeze here if it ever got that cold 🙂
I've never felt the feeling of community and love as I did when my husband became permanently disabled from stroke. People brought food to me while he was in the hospital, drove my kids, cleaned, yard work, fundraisers, visited at the hospital. It was crazy!!! Such LOVE. I could never ever thank people enough for all the support they gave and continue to give for years!!!❤❤❤

We live in a small community in northern Arkansas of about 500 people. I love living here and the people are always ready to help when needed.
Glad to hear there isn’t anything broken or torn in Bert’s knee and especially no blood clots.
I live in North Pole also. I love the people here!

I WANT to live in a small community, but I don’t. My neighbors look at me like I have 2 heads when I say hello. It’s a shame. Glad you’re on the mend!
Becky M I lived in various suburbs of LA, now in a small town in Texas. Life is much better here as far as community.
Becky M that’s the worse. I wish I had neighbors to talk to. I’m sure it makes neighborhood life a lot better.
Neighbors helping neighbors is how people survive in times of need. As a Texan that survived Harvey I can attest to the awesomeness that can be achieved when people help each other out.

I grew up in a small town in western KS and I loved it....everyone helps everyone...it was absolutely a great place to grow up in!
I live in a very small town. I love the small town feeling. I grew up in a nice small town. When my dad was diagnosed with cancer people came out of everywhere to help.

Yes, another video! We got spoiled during vlogmas... now it seems too long between videos 🤣❤
I love your channel! I'm not a fan of the premieres, but it's not my channel 😄. Keep giving us videos! My number 1 RUclips channel!
Only thing i miss about Alaska after 28 years is the amazing ppl........
U love the North Pole nd we love u guys 😘😘😘😘😘. Hope ur knee gets better. Loads of love
I am glad that you went to the Doctor Bert. Your leg looks nasty and very painful. Glad nothing is broken! Follow Dr's orders! Sometimes it is hard to let others help you.

Bert I’m so sorry you fell, it’s great you have ppl that have reached out to help you in a time you needed it. I hope your leg heals soon, take care. Love to you and your family.
Small community doing good for others will come back to you. Ive been taught you dont do good for someone just to get something in return. And i can tell yall do for others because of the love yall have in your heart.
Dear Bert and Jessica!!
You are a Blessing in our lives!! Thank you so much for being loving, caring kindhearted people that you are!! You are so blessed to have such wonderful people, your family, your church family, and neighbirs, in your lives too!!
You are very lucky to have a family so close. Most of our family is either in Chihuahua City, Chihuahua Mexico or in Prescott, AZ. Getting time for a visit is quite tough for us since we run a An Allergy Asthma office in El Paso.
We just subscribed to The Moore The Merrier and look forward to following their vlogs!!
Bert, We are so glad you went to the doctor to get your leg checked out!! That's an impressive bruise!! I'm glad you are healing!! My husband empathized with you!! He had a similar accident about 5 years ago!! Thank God you are OK!! Many prayers for a quick recovery!!

I grew up in a small community. Everyone helped everyone. I miss living there.
We recently visited a small village south of Delta Junction, Alaska. It was so small, it made us North Polers into city people;)
We live in a smaller town and when I had emergency back surgery 7 years ago, neighbors on both sides of us kept an eye on me in the afternoon and evening while my husband was at work.

That is absolutely wonderful! Thank you for sharing that :-)
😭 I missed the “Live!” 😭 so, will pray for your knee and remember your B12. Stress is stress. Stay warm! Love you!
Omg! Love the intro! Goes with your saying "happy peoples "!
Prayers being sent for Bert and his knee. Knee problems are no fun. I hurt mine in high school volleyball and have had 4 surgeries since.
👍👍 so glad you went to the doctor, better safe than sorry! I love the way Bert shares his heart ♥️I am also very thankful for the way you guys not only share your faith but you guys live it!
Gee I didn't know I would miss seeing the somers so much after vlogmas!!! I'm so happy your back :)
Awesome version of "Don't Worry be Happy"

Wrap your knee, elevate, ice, have a couple of Aleve and do some flex exercises to get that knee better...FYI...get a blue bag you can chill and
Wrap that knee! Walk and Flex...Walk and Flex...Walk and Flex....As always, Hugs from Kennebunk Maine
Oh my the healing does look worse, love watching the videos from ND here. Stay warm and get some rest Jessica. Adore the kids and your way of life ♥️⭐️
During our trip to Alaska people were very nice in Canada and Alaska. Later right after driving into Washington state someone kept laying on the horn behind us on a back road. Which made us miss Canada and AK.
Feel better soon Bert! I think you have officially become my favorite youtubers after watching your family over the past year! I think doing a live every once in awhile would be awesome, can’t wait!
I love your family, y'all are awesome, God bless!
such beautiful messages
It’s nice to see vids of the Alaskan town. All the TV shows only show the Alaskan wilderness. This is neat to see another side of Alaska. I love ur vids. Great family :)
Cold weather ohhhh, how i wish we can experience that,,,snow..even for a month or two .....happy new year happy family!!!!from us, happy family of Philippines!!!
Get well soon Bert!! Love your family. A true inspiration of what family is about❤❤
I wished we had a community like that. My husband and I where just talking about how we wished we had a more of a friendly/helpful community. Part of the reason why we moving away because we don’t fee like this is home, and not where we should be anymore
Oh Burt, i am glad to see you are getting better.
I'm so glad nothing to serious with your knee. May God Bess you with a speedy recovery. I live in a small rural county in Virginia. My neighbor came over and hooked up a generator during our last major power outage and the same neighbor came over and vacuumed our leaves. I'm disabled and my mom is 70 and works 7 days a week delivering news papers.
Praise God for good family and neighbours. I'm so glad there's nothing broken. Healing takes time though, Bert. I hope you're not getting a cold Jess. You're all in my thoughts and prayers.
Bert, I’m glad nothing is broken and that you saw a dr. It warms my heart when I hear stories of people helping when you need it most. God bless them. And I also love to give, but need to learn how to receive which I find a lot harder. Jessica, I hope you don’t catch a cold but you know yourself. And I just adore your beautiful children. I love their hearts. You two are raising kind caring people with the love of God. I will check out that other family you mentioned and Leave a comment. Have a wonderful day!
So Happy to hear you are feeling better Bert.
God bless your beautiful family ☺🙏
I live in Northern Tucson. We go up to Northern Arizona to a small town in the mountains called Alpine. No lights or stop signs. There is a gas station, thrift shop, convenience store, a bar and a couple restraunts. It's about a 40 minute drive to the closest grocery store, Safeway, and an hour and a half to Walmart. One day we will move up there to get away from the bustle of Tucson. People are so nice and welcoming.
It is a great idea having a temperature display in your car dash. It would be great here in the tropics.
We Happy people wish you happy peoples A happy New Years
My community is the same way. We help each other out. My grandpa lived in North Pole till he passed away a little over a year ago. Have yet to go up to his property that is now my fathers. It was by the Santa House is what he told us.
I feel that, it was that way back in anchorage growing up... it was a community of people that helped each other, when my dad had his reoccuring cancer's our neighbors plowed and shoveled for my parents and even mowed their lawn so my mom could focus on his care. I never felt unsafe until I left a couple years ago. It is great that your sister and her fiance and your neighbor were able to do that because that is what true community is about!
I live in a suburb outside of cincinnati so a larger community but we def get the Midwest hospitality here and our neighbors are so helpful!
In April of 2018, we had a scare - our furnace had a part that broke, and so it kept running and running and running. Right after supper one of our smoke alarms went off (picking up on too much heat coming out of a vent). We got the kids out, got the dog and cat in the truck, all while calling 911. As the first fire truck showed up, so did our neighbors - in huge numbers. One to take care of our dog, a family took our kids to their place and had a “party” to distract them, ladies showed up to sit with me, men showed up to help my hubby - as we were wondering where the source of the smoke was. 2.5 hours later the FD confirmed it was the furnace and it was fixed the next day. But we were surrounded. Coffees brought, hugs and prayers shared, kids and animals cared for. We live in a small village. I’m the same - I prefer to give than receive, but my gosh, did we feel loved and cared for. Praying you feel better Bert.
I watch lots of vlogs and your guys' is truly a great one, so refreshing and uplifting. Wishing you all a great year to come!
We found the Air Force chapel community to be much like you describe. We are in the process of finding and building Community here in Palmer. Always love seeing a new video from all of you. I missed the premier.
Hello my new favorite RUclips family!! I've missed you guys. I've spent the past few days going through old videos and trying to catch up. Glad Bert is on the road to recovery. Congrats to Bert's sis( sorry I forget her name, sometimers kicking it)on her engagement. I love the live on RUclips because I don't have any social media and I love the chance to get to chat with you and the family Jessica. Your so stinkin sweet and your family always brightens my day. Love you guys and God to see y'all.
The live chat option is super fun.
There are around 90,000 people in the "town" I live in, Duluth Minnesota. It's a total small town feel here. Just today when I was returning from my errands I saw an older neighbor gentlemen struggling to clear the snow from his sidewalk and stairs. I happen to have fallen on an icy curb last week and separated some ribs from my sternum. I am unable to shovel currently so when I got around the block to my house I rushed into my house and sent my husband down to help the man out. I've never seen him before, I don't know his story, but I know that we should help those who need it, no matter what.
Don't ever feel bad for taking help either. You get what you have given. 💙
so glad your knee just looks bad!!!!!pray it heals quickly!!!!!and the pain goes with it!!!
I love the way the snow sounds when you step on it it hasn’t done much in New Jersey 🙄 God bless you guys! ❄️☃️🌨
You were scaring me when you kept letting go of the wheel. Especially with the slick roads. Be careful please.Glad your husband is healing up well. Nice family you have.
Love watching your videos! Your children are so cute and loving. It is wonderful on how you are bringing them up. Always feel good after watching your family vlogs. 😊
Wow, it's 47° where I am and it feels like it's freezing. I can't imagine 20° below freezing. 😱😵❄
I live in a very small, very rural town. I love it. There is a sense of unity. Recently, a family lost there home to fire. My church held a an auction and dinner, and raised over $12,000. I could name example after example. I love small town living.
2nd video watched. What a model family. I'm smiling as I text. Feel better Burt. God Bless you all. Excuse me now, I'll probably binge watch the rest of your vids, lol. Stay warm guys.
Oh wow! Thanks so much Phil! -39 degrees here today:)
I'm so glad that your knee is doing better Bert!!!!! 🙇♀️
Such heartfelt words from Berrt. You guys are goals!
I live in a small community. We are the same way they will help you when you need it even if you don’t ask.
Please show us more homeschooling!!!
Love your gray hoodie Jessica! Where did you get it? Small communities in Canada are very similar when it comes to helping people! Heart warming!
Connie Johnson me too I love that I want to buy one looks great and comfy
I am so glad Bert you are little better prayer does help..I made a comment on the Moore family youtube page they are following you guys now.
Ms. Bert, Your last name is Somers, but it is not summer! Stay warm, because Mr. Bert and the kids need you well! Stay well! Love you all!!
Awe those cross’ were gorgeous and it’s good to see your leg is starting to slowly heel
hope your knee is feeling better soon ,, just found your channel and binge watching to try and catch up quickly.. loving the videos, so so far from my daily life (living in sunny So Cal).. your kids putting the bowls in the freezer made me smile, wouldn't it be easier to set bowls outside front door of house to freeze faster
Prayers for a speedy recovery
I live in a big city, but in the apartment building where I live, there are very special people who help others out with gestures of kindness without asking of anything in return. Quite often my family is in need of a helping hand as sometimes happens, just like it has to others at some point. Usually these special people will donate their children clothes that they have outgrown to our family, as we are on a fixed income, and when we are done with them, we donate them to a local charity. We have often even received gifts of food from them too.
What a amazing life you have.
Praise God it's not broken, I have been thinking about it for several days and praying for you guys, so excited for tires year with you
Love your channel! Have gotten several hematoma’s and also several surgeries on my knee and I recommend kinsology tape. You can look up how to tape to help break up the blood clusters and also to give support.
You guys! I miss vlogmas!‘it was so great seeing a daily video from you! 😘
So glad your leg is healing Bert! Keep warm guys. :)
I liked the live feed, but got kicked off it so I watched it later. I’m glad Bert’s leg is doing better! I live in a smaller town, but unfortunately it doesn’t have the feel of the North Pole. I think it is super sweet that your sister, brother-in-law, and neighbor came to help you guys out. You don’t realize how much you do until you are injured and then can’t accomplish much at all. I’m glad your home is super well insulated because we would freeze here if it ever got that cold 🙂
Glad to see you went to the Dr
