some sad times too when Melissa lost her grand mother 100 she has had blessings to stay on this earth God Called her home My Heart goes out to Melissa and her family at this time
I couldn’t have said it any better, hope you have a wonderful 2025 especially with the new addition to your family. May God be your strength and comfort in your life
I have gone through that many many times and it never gets easier your heart is totally broken but you have to move on. When my last friend passes I’m not going to have any more I’m get older and I can’t take the heartbreak anymore 70 + years of being with animals I can’t take the pain of losing them to age. Take care I’m moving west in 2 weeks for ever
I loved this walk down memory lane. I'm so sorry for your loss it's just never easy, April is a great month to bring a new baby into the world, especially if it's the 17th of April
So sorry for the loss of your Grandmother. She sure was special. It’s so cool to see how much your youngest looks like her. All gift.. truly your family has lost a matriarch. Praise the Lord for the hope we have in Him…Eternity with those we have had to say “good-bye for now” to. ❤ I didn’t get to be with my son when the Lord took him home. It was so very hard. Jesus’s love and presence was my strength & continues to be. Our God is faithful. 🙏🏼
I am so sorry for your loss of your Grandma and Kengi too. My mom's name is also Lucille and she will be 100 in June this year. God bless you wonderful kids and your family so much love to all of you.
My husband was born and raised in Bonners Ferry and he retired from the prosecutor's office about 4 yrs ago. We just moved to Kooteani County due to his health. I just found your channel. I love that you bring up your love for Christ. My name is April and I hope you have a safe & healthy delivery. Congratulations.
This video was superb, the music, the videos, what a recap of 2024. I remember tearing up when you lost Benji, and your Grandma, Great editing. You family rocks!
When life keeps falling apart, and you feel like you’re continually getting sucked deeper into the dark, the whole world feels bleak, and it feels like people have just become ugly soulless robots. Can’t tell you how much I appreciate your beautiful videos, your lovely family, and the beautiful peaceful love and normalcy that you project - thank you for all that you share❤❤❤
Melissa and Jeremy brings positive out look too me and my family i learn alot from both of them learning to listen to each person in my life it is important to hear each other comments Melissa comments at the end always give me such joy and happiness putting things and prospective
Lovely retrospective of the past year. Something I have learned is that our kids may leave but they return in interesting ways. My oldest has become my best friend. I have no doubt that all your children will huddle close by. You have a myriad of new experiences waiting I the wings. All you need to do is be open and embrace the new! Bless you all.
Melissa .... "I love drywall sooooo much .... I'm gonna miss it" says practically no one ever🤣🤣 Take care Jeremy, Melissa & the kids .... Happy New Year🗻🌴🌴❄☃✌🏻
Love the videos I'm 61 it made me cry with the passing of the dog then the news of the new baby then grand ma passing just love your family always look forward to sat.
Its incredible how detailed the ultrasound photos are now. We have 4 and our last ultrasound photo was almost 14 years ago so I guess it tracks that the technology has gotten better. Congratulations again GSL family!
Thank you to your Beautiful family for being a Light House for us all navigating the stormy waters of this life journey. Your eloquence of words sooth the harshness of the falls and the excitement of the rise. Parenthood and just life is a challenge so to have your view each week gives us a kindling of hope for a sweeter journey. God Bless
I remember every one of those moments! Your channel is the one channel I look forward to watching each week. The commentary at the end of each one, is what kept me going for another week. Happy New year to each and every one of you. 🎉I'm looking forward to 2025 with your family and the arrival of the new edition ❤ ❤
Awwwww - what a year. I always cry (and I'm almost 60!) seeing you give the kids the big news - every single time! Praying for you guys - may 2025 be WONDERFUL!
2025 - Another year - But the important thing stays the same - for God does not change - he is always there - does not forget us ever - but one year closer to the time that Christ returns to gather all those who belong to him home to be with the Father and the Spirit praising God, singing, giving thanks. No pain, no sorrow, just joy and thankfulness!
Great recap of 2024! I've been laughing and crying all the way through this video. Missing Kenji, but loving Ludo. Celebrating Nevaeh's adulthood and Keira becoming a preteen! Loving Kaimani turning into a young man, and Eli growing up so fast! Your loving tribute to Grandma Lucille. Thank you for sharing everything with us! Looking forward to 2025 with the Souza family! God bless you all! ❤
I was hanging on, until you announced Kenji's passing. 😢💔😭 My precious Widgette passed away yesterday morning and I lost the tears all over again. I am so sorry for your loss. Extremely grateful for the time you got to share with your precious furbaby!
What a wonderful recap of 2024! So many wonderful things, some sad, and some unexpected!! That is life isn’t it?! What a beautiful family you all are separately and together! Thank you for all the content on both your channels. Thank you for all you share. I’ve loved watching your journey! Such a must see every week! Thank you!❤❤❤
I really enjoyed watching your year in review! What an eventful one for you all. What a great transition from watching the video to the camera zooming out to see you two at the kitchen counter. Blessings to you all and your on-line community (great commentary this past Wed on Old Souls - it is a tricky thing for sure).
Happy New Year to you all. Thank you for sharing your family with me. This 80 year grandma really loves every weekend so I can just be with you for your family videos. Shalom, Shalom to you all.

Happy New Year! We have loved watching your channel. Thank you for taking us along with you! Laughter and tears (mine and my husband's) as we sit and watch your beautiful family.
Beautiful video today. This was your best one yet! Perhaps if you have a girl, you can name her Lucie in honor of your sweet grandmother. If it’s a boy, use your grandmother’s maiden name as a first or middle name if it works. Sending lots of love your way as you prepare for your precious little one. 🙏💜🙏
Jeremy, It must be huge yearning for the warmth of the Hawaiian Land of Moo...So much cold weather locking you into a totally different life that rests in your bones...A dedicated Dad and Husband..You absolutely are a wonderful soul... You and Melissa are such a wonderful inspiring Team..With your Family, children,, animals, and all the building projects you have taken on and successfully created a magnificent home...For the love of your children.. A Stable, safe, loving multi task, dedicated, can do attitude, community, your moral fiber is so, honest and true,,,,Thankyou for all you Share...Melissa, beautiful mum..Bless You...and all your hard unconditional work..May the warm winds of Heavens forever blow gently on your home..
Jeremy..... You said it's hard cuz we're going to be down one. Meaning Nevaeh. I thing God said hold my wine! As you are gaining a new shining star in your heart! Don't worry. He's got your back!
Beautiful video! Once again I laughed at your description of Blue (sp?) laughed when you announced your pregnancy and cried with you over your very painful losses. As usual your videos hit home. We lost my mom on July 31- one day after the fourth anniversary date of my dad's passing. We lost our dearly loved GSD, Gus, in April and in October unexpectedly welcomed our new one, Kronk. Life is precious; may we all use 2025 to deepen our relationships with our loved ones and share the source of our strength and faith with those who don't know Him. Blessings in this new year and love from MN!
This recap vlog was probably the sweetest 'look back' on the airways. So many helping hands waiting for this baby. So many projects completed. Cannot wait to see what the Lord has planned for you all. Many blessings for this new year.
I loved the video, and I love your family. Jeremy, your facial expressions sometimes make me laugh. Melissa is glowing. I guess being pregnant can do that. I like the way you are raising your children. There is more I can say, but my prayer is that God will continue to bless your family, and I hope to meet you in person someday.
God bless you all and I just love all your videos. Many times, I find myself leaking a tear at the endings. Thank you for all the hard work you all do for these videos for us to enjoy. May the new year be awesome for your family as well as for all the viewers.
The parents make the announcement; the boys go to mom, the girls go to dad and I stand here stirring cream in my coffee while the tears fall. Congratulations!! A year in the life of the Souza's. I love you guys.
Thank you for sharing all your beautiful memories and sorry for your loss of One of your family members she will be watching over all of you . And congratulations on the new Family member which will soon will be coming eventually to the score on top of that note we are praying for you all. God bless you all and meet your 2025 be Brighter and amazing
I love the fact I've been on this journey with you guys and loved watching every minute of it, good, bad, painful and ugly. Keep doing what your doing, living the dream and sharing with family 👪 ❤ 😊
With tears rolling down my face, I lost my mother in law this year and we had to put down our 13 year old fur baby dog! Thank you for letting us see a glimpse into your lives each week, I love your channels and watch every week❤
It was so difficult to relive Kenji`s passing with you. My 2 GSDs are like my children and my female will be 12 in April which is very old by German Shepherd standards. She got really sick last month. She refused to eat, and her scent glands were working overtime. I took her to the vet and he told me she was just very old and to prepare to say goodbye to her. To my absolute joy and surprise (and the vet too) she has made a true comeback, and she is eating everything I put in her dish again...gained back almost all the weight she lost and is playing ball again with me and my 6-year-old male. I don't know how long this "bounce back" will last, but I am enjoying every day I am blessed to have her still with us. Kenji was obviously a huge part of your family, and I am so sorry you had to say goodbye...but at least Kenji died in his bed and surrounded by his family. RIP beautiful pup. It is ridiculously cold here the last two days, but some relief coming by Monday. Currently -37 here at the farm in North/Central Sask. brrrrr!! A great day to stay inside and enjoy your video. Thanks for sharing your 2024 memories with us....and as always, sending love from our frigid acreage to yours.
Your example is one of the best why people should stop playing God with aging animals. Let them go when they are ready but give them every fighting chance until then. God bless you and much health to the both of you.
A year of joyful tears 😅 and those of sorrow 😢 also . And 2025 is going to be a busy year of adjustment 😉 Thank you for sharing your adventures with us 💖👵🏻❣️
Happy, happy new year to you and your beautiful family. I'm very excited to see what the new year brings, I know that with God's grace, it's going to be a wonderful year🙏🏻❤️
WOW you guys! Now that I can wipe away the tears. You guys are BLESSED! Loved the way you put in the whole year of your adventures. Take care of yourself and that new little one. LOVED your video! ❤️
What a year! I bet you are just as amazed as we are. So looking forward to 2025…eldest continuing to spread her wings and a newest little Souza making its appearance. 😊❤️
I can think of no other family I'd want to live vicariously through than yours! All the love you all share, the search for knowledge and experience in new things,the success you have had in building your mountain paradise, the menagerie you raise so well and how, as a viewer,I feel I have been there. Best of luck in this coming year!
Thankyou for the part you play in my life. Just good wholesome love and family and dreams coming true. Well done. So much love to you and your beautiful family from me in Australia. May God continue to Bless your life.🕊💜🕯
Happy new year! Absolutely love your family and your videos! ❤I pray for a very healthy baby and many new adventures for you and your family! God Bless you! 😊
Your year reminds me of mine and the old quote, "It was the best of times and the worst of times, but always with so much to be thankful for. Wishing all of you many blessings, health and joy this coming year. Can't wait to meet the new little one. Thanks for all you share with us. You are a blessing.
I love all your memories ❤️😊 and going through them with you watching you very week and watching the kids grow 🪴😊and all the blessings that you do for other people to live you all ❤
Great video, editing all that together must have been full of every emotion. Watching it was certainty was for me. My god bless all of you and may the new year be the best year ever.
I laughed, I cried , and I prayed with and for your family this past year ( 2024) and couldn’t be happier to be going into 2025 with you . Seeing the growth and awesome family values you teach , not only your family, but families who journey along side you through your videos and pod cast . Thank you for all the lessons and motivation…And may you all have a blessed and wonderful 2025 .
It is a real joy watching your family grow. If more families were like yours our country would be happier. Thank you for sharing your lives with us. My birthday is April 30😂. ❤❤❤
We seem to have a lot of late springs in the last few years. My Heart is so glad to have found your channel so many years ago!! Watching the kids grow and now the new baby coming!! @ 18:34 in it is amazing to see all the work you have done! to go from raw ground to your homestead!!

What a wonderful yearly compilation!!! Y’all are so blessed and you have blessed us with your wonderful family and your fantastic life! Praise the Lord!!! Can’t wait for baby #5!!! ❤️
I just lost my 19 y/o pupper xmas eve. You obviously were great pet parents and your dog was surrounded by love till the very end. Hugs to all of you and may your new pup bless your lives with many years to come!!
This year will be our 40th in our home. It is a blessing to see your grandchildren play in the same place their mother did. You guys are actually setting yourselves up for Grandchildren. I’m sure you are aware of how blessed the future will be. Also, I couldn’t help when watching this knowing that I knew you were pregnant before you did. Lol
Tears of sadness with Kenji and your Grandma and happiness wow a new life to look forward too. Being a retired L&D nurse that is so awesome. You have had a lot of accomplishments and your such hard workers. Happy New Year to all! Wishes for good health and happiness.
Happy New Years to my favorite RUclips family in Idaho. I wish you all the best. Loved the video Melissa, boy I sure did tear up when it came to Kenchi and your grandma.
What a beautiful year in review. A lot of surprises! I do love Luda. But when the part about Kenji came up I immediately got very emotional! He will forever be that special Souza family member to me! ❤ Happy New Year to my favorite RUclips family the Souzas!
I miss Kenji, was so beautiful to see him again, and to see Ludo growing, and all of you being happy and like in life, having some hard moments. What an amazing journey! Happy New Year, to all of you, to all of these beautiful people in this community! God bless!❤❤❤
😅What a beautiful tribute to 2024. Everyone should do this so they can look back over the years. Personally, I’m glad to be done with 2024 b/c of the constant stress we endured! Hoping we are settled this year and can start fresh. Looking forward to seeing your new addition 👶
Thank you so much for giving us the opportunity to follow and watch your family grow ,love, and live life . Happiest New Year to my favorite Family ❤
Happy new year!!

I have gone through that many many times and it never gets easier your heart is totally broken but you have to move on. When my last friend passes I’m not going to have any more I’m get older and I can’t take the heartbreak anymore 70 + years of being with animals I can’t take the pain of losing them to age.

Melissa your grandma was such a sweet woman. Very special to have videos of your times with her. What a blessing she surely was to you.
Thank you, she was a wonderful woman, I miss her dearly.
So sorry for the loss of your Grandmother. She sure was special. It’s so cool to see how much your youngest looks like her. All gift.. truly your family has lost a matriarch.
Praise the Lord for the hope we have in Him…Eternity with those we have had to say “good-bye for now” to. ❤
I didn’t get to be with my son when the Lord took him home. It was so very hard. Jesus’s love and presence was my strength & continues to be. Our God is faithful. 🙏🏼
I am so sorry for your loss of your Grandma and Kengi too. My mom's name is also Lucille and she will be 100 in June this year. God bless you wonderful kids and your family so much love to all of you.

“You is a man now” made cry, it was so touching😭🥰🥰😇
The funny thing is this child will get to see all the things he missed out on with the family. ♥️🥰

I think it’s a boy...just like the Gaines. Two boys...two girls...then another boy. Besides...I think I saw ‘something’ on the ultrasound.
You both have built a family filled legacy, built from your heart, a labor of love to live on for generations ❤❤🎉
Thank you so much, that means a lot to us. 🙏
@ you are very welcome, it was very much deserved.

I just lost my 19 y/o pupper xmas eve. You obviously were great pet parents and your dog was surrounded by love till the very end. Hugs to all of you and may your new pup bless your lives with many years to come!!
This year will be our 40th in our home. It is a blessing to see your grandchildren play in the same place their mother did. You guys are actually setting yourselves up for Grandchildren. I’m sure you are aware of how blessed the future will be. Also, I couldn’t help when watching this knowing that I knew you were pregnant before you did. Lol
This year in review was really good. Celebrating with you in spirit. ❤️🇺🇸🙏🎊
Thank you for watching and celebrating with us!
I missed you all last week.. Happy Year 🎊🎊
Thank God you are dealing and God has his covering over you and your seeds
Tears of sadness with Kenji and your Grandma and happiness wow a new life to look forward too. Being a retired L&D nurse that is so awesome. You have had a lot of accomplishments and your such hard workers. Happy New Year to all! Wishes for good health and happiness.
We're so grateful for your kind words, we're feeling blessed and excited for this new chapter.
Happy New Years to my favorite RUclips family in Idaho. I wish you all the best. Loved the video Melissa, boy I sure did tear up when it came to Kenchi and your grandma.
Happy new year!!
This was an emotional roller coaster episode! Congratulations on your discovery and good news! Your family is amazing!
GOD Bless🙏🙏
So happy for you all! How exciting that you all will have a new family member
I HAVE TO SAY HONESTLY THE BEST GUEST ABOVE ALL WAS TOM AND NANCY,,,,,ENJOYED VIDEO
What a beautiful year in review.
A lot of surprises! I do love Luda. But when the part about Kenji came up I immediately got very emotional! He will forever be that special Souza family member to me! ❤
Happy New Year to my favorite RUclips family the Souzas!
I miss Kenji, was so beautiful to see him again, and to see Ludo growing, and all of you being happy and like in life, having some hard moments. What an amazing journey! Happy New Year, to all of you, to all of these beautiful people in this community! God bless!❤❤❤
😅What a beautiful tribute to 2024. Everyone should do this so they can look back over the years. Personally, I’m glad to be done with 2024 b/c of the constant stress we endured! Hoping we are settled this year and can start fresh. Looking forward to seeing your new addition 👶
