    Spring snow storm in Alaska & I'm ALONE at our off grid cabin for four days while Joe travels through Canada to pick up our daughter Lexxy from Washington State. The boys and I do our best back at the cabin to maintain the snow load & keep our solar panels cleared for power at the cabin! Living off grid in Alaska brings many adventures but it also brings CHALLENGES! Thanks for joining us on the journey!

    All alone without Joe for 4 days LOL!!! But we survived! The best way to figure out if you can do something is to just DO IT! 4 days withoutJoe taught me how grateful I am for all that he does. He is an amazing father & partner. It also showed me how we can change some things around here to make life easier for me IF I ever have to do it all by myself again lol! Right now my cup runneth over. I have everything I love all in one place, Joe, Lexxy, Parker & Kellen...life is good. P.S. The moose turned out to be the same male moose with the cut on his back that Joe had to chase off last week. He came back!!! Thanks for joining us for another video friends!😘

I can't help notice the wonderful transformation of Kellen since he has arrived, he looks so Happy and comfortable in his new surroundings. Parker is such a stellar young man. What a wonderfully helper and knowledgeable little guy. The true making of a great man.
      All hale GINGERS!!! lol
      It was nice to see the joy Lexy brought to everyone, you could see it on all your faces...what a blessing to be loved so much. Lexy now I see where Parker gets his funny faces to camara when moms not paying attention... LOVE the ❤..

    Never underestimate the power of a mother/woman when she has is left alone to care for and make sure everything is safe for her family. I felt like I was holding my breath through the video, worried for Lexi and Joe driving from Seattle to Alaska in all that weather and bad conditions. I was so relieved and happy to see they made it home safely. BUT!!! Nothing was better than seeing you all playing and sledding in the snow! The fun, laughter, love, and joy that was exploding from you all was priceless!!! Time to continually enjoy the time you all are having together.

    So great to have Lexi back with her family! Parker is such a little man and Kellan is so thoughtful and loving. Poor Tina I know what it is like to live with no man around, I lived that way for 4 years after my divorce and before I remarried! I got the neighbor man to help me when I couldn't do something on my own. God is good though and He brought me through the tough times!

    Oh sister, we are going through the “I’m an adult I should be able to make my own decisions “ with our 18 yo son and it is no joke. He still lives at home, so he has to abide by our rules…curfew, manners, church on Sunday, etc., and it is extremely difficult! We have made sure that he knows we are always here for him no matter what and he is always welcome home, but yes, there are rules.

    Ms. Tina, I Can relate so much, and almost cried, listening to you talk about Lexi.
    I did the same with my kid’s.
    They turn 18 and all of a sudden, they stop getting along with us.
    Because they don’t understand that our “rules” are just to keep protecting them.
    Now, I’m going through the same with a Grandson.
    I adore him.
    But, he can’t live with me if he doesn’t abide by my rules.
    I wish you and Lexi the best!
    They have no idea how much we love them.

    That was very nice to watch for the 3rd time. lol I started following you over a year ago and always watch your video's twice. I'm all caught up but needed a Home Free Alaska fix. This one had so many problems that you just took on no matter the outcome. Good for you! Then the fun at the end is very touching. My daughter is 29 now, out on her own for 10 months now. She is doing great, still miss her like crazy but we get to see her at least every two weeks or so. They grow up so fast. I'm on pins and needles waiting to hear if Kellen stays with you all or not. I'm praying for God's will, not mine. I know no matter what he will always treasure the time he spent with the Watson's. I just love your whole family.

My daughter was the same way, she joined the Navy right out of high school and God showed her the way within 6 months. Amazing how we parents are all of a sudden are very smart. Just enjoy her while she is home and let her fly her own god given path. Love to all of you.

    My baby (25) still lives with me. It's always been just her and me. I know one day she will need to leave the nest and I try not to think about it.

    Ok girl. I have only watched a few minutes…I am at when you are scraping snow off the solar panels. And I am crying/laughing when you yell at the dogs that they almost made you pee. You have the best sense of humor. Screw all the turds who say mean and hateful things. Jealousy is evil, and that is what they are feeling. I am glad I found your channel…you absolutely crack me up. Love it! Have a blessed day!

    Hi, I’ve been following your videos since you started on your journey to Alaska. You truly have a blessed family. Joe, you are a great father and husband, an amazing hard working man of many talents!! and Tina, you are a wonderful hard working,Godly mother and wife if even half of the American families could be as functional and caring for their own family as you guys are, our country would be in such a better shape. God is good and he has truly blessed your family unit. I am glad to see your daughter home with you for now, we live in learn through life experience, and we become better stronger and wiser. You are a praying mother and there’s not a more powerful prayer that gets heavens attention than the prayer of a mother for her children. I know that God has your back and he has Lexi’s as well. Whatever is going on with her she will pull through it and she will be stronger in the end. God bless your beautiful family!! -Bobby

    Such an emotional video and one of your best ones to date.
    I found the lexi situation so emotional and had tears in my eyes and my heart bursting with love for you all. I think all us mums know how you feel and I’m so glad Lexi knows she can turn to you when she needed to.
    Sat at the table you can see the love in Joes’s eyes when he looked at his daughter. ❤
    And on a side note I’m U.K. and your attempt at the British accent wasn’t the best 😂😂😂😂 (we Brits always love it when Americans try our accent) but 100% gold star for trying Tina you did well ❤❤❤❤❤😊

    Thank you for your honesty and sharing about your mother-daughter relationship. Right now we have an 18 (going on 19) year old daughter living at home. She is now looking for her own place because she wants to spread her wings and be able to experience adult life. We have rules here on our homestead as well that align with your similar views... I think raising young adult children there is always a learning curve... we do our best as Moms and Dads and do what we feel is right at the time. :) God Bless and hope you and the family are enjoying this lovely month of April and Spring is on its way.

Those boys have beautiful hearts.....they wanted to help you so bad. That was very touching. Lexxi is a beautiful young woman. I pray she finds a great apartment and makes lots of wonderful friends.

    Tina, I relate 100% to your GI issues and feel for you. I was recently diagnosed with SIBO. Have you tested for that yet? It's a breath test. Not all GI doctors test for it, or even recognize it as a disease. Fortunately mine does. If you have a functional doctor near you I would recommend seeing one to get to the root cause of your issues. SIBO is hard to treat, but it is treatable with diet and either antibiotics or antimicrobials. My doctor has me following the Low Fob diet. Certain vegetables can irritate SIBO like garlic, onions , and definitely fermented foods like sauerkraut. So pay attention to if you feel worse when you eat those foods. I hope you figure this out soon.
    BTW.... I homeschooled our 4 children all the way through. My baby graduated last year. You're doing a great job with the boys. We live in Illinois, but my brother has lived in Anchorage for 36 years. He's a judge on the Superior Court. My son is in the Air Force stationed at JBER. We looove Alaska and love watching your adventure. Makes us want to live there too!

    Snowplow tip. Do not move the snow just drive over it many times and pack it down with the plow or even the snowmobiles. It is easy to drive over a packed snow driveway or road. Do not plow it and push it aside. It take far less energy and wear and tear to drive over it and pack it down to make it easy to drive over for all of your vehicles. You can also melt this packed snow by putting ash or seed over it that catches the sun and melts it fast from the sun.

    I really love that song at the end and I'm sure other parts of your videos. It was very fitting for the end of the video. Honestly brought a tear to my eye. I'm so glad she still has Ollie, that warmed my heart to see that boy! I'm so happy you have all your "cubs" nearby! Glad she got out of California also. That has to be one of the worst states in the U.S. (and I've never been there, thank God)! What a sweet video, God bless you all!!!

    Another great video from you guys. All of your children are a blessing to you and both you and Joe to them. It's so good to see love, harmony and God's order in a family. Watching you with your kid's and listening to your heart felt honesty about the respect and order under your roof is rare and I dare say much needed in our world today. I so look forward to your videos and there content because it all reminds me of how I was raised. My parents taught us to love and respect each other...Just as God loves us. Thank you and God bless you all. Prayers headed your way..:))

    I admit I have been waiting all week to see how things were going. I live in Alberta so I know what lots of snow can look like although I have never been on a homestead coping alone. You did awesome and I am so happy and grateful that your family is complete. I have four kids and I know even now my heart feels full when all of them and their families are together with me. You and yours have a wonderful week and thank you for sharing your journey. Just ignore all negative comments and carry on, lol!!!

    Your babies are all home❤
    We don't know how well we did until we get that call.
    I'm glad Lexi is back with time to decompress before her new job. The boys obviously are enjoying her home. Great all the dogs are doing well and the cats are too.
    Looking at your problem solving, think you did just fine. You held the homestead.
    Not sure if aware, but when it falls, we move that snow sometimes 4 x a day to avoid getting locked in. If we wait until it stops, nothing helps since we don't have a big JD with blade once the sun comes out.
    Get some chains for the tires for both the blower and Polaris. You won't regret.
    During off season consider sizing up the blower.
    I'm waiting for the almanac update, but expect fall season of snow dumps and more.
    Can't stand that heavy wet stuff, so hard to clear.
    Joe seems the happiest right now. That long trek was obviously special for their relationship.
    Isn't it amazing how as parents we transition into many new stages with our kids❤
    What a gift. Hugs from 🇨🇦
