Love your stories Todd. You are an old soul. Love the story of the sand fleas. I lived in Florida and I can relate. Thanks for the pictures y'all are such a gorgeous family. Rachel was gleaning on your wedding day! The children sure have grown. So happy the baby Pines are doing so well. I agree, I'd want more too!

We're coming up on 10 years this Oct...thank you so much for sharing your story, stunning pics, sand fleas and all!!!
I enjoy your stories! Nice to spend time in the yard with you, too hot in my yard today! Temperature gage said 101 when I went out, not sure what the heat index was. Im glad you old friends to laugh with Rachel! Makes life such fun!
Beautiful wedding minus the sand fleas! Love your stories. Thanks for sharing.
Your wedding pictures are THE CUTEST!! 🥰🥰🥰😍😍😍
Beautiful couple and wedding! Thanks for sharing the pictures. I guess you can laugh about the sand fleas now, but that must have been awful at the time. I love that you are partners on the homestead, both of you work your tails off making your dreams work!
Bought an Olight the last sale on your recommendation. Very happy so far with performance and quality.
Beautiful story, adorable children and gorgeous pictures!

You are right you are a lucky man Rachel was beautiful back then as she is now
Beautiful Rachel and family ! 😊❤️I love your channel, learn so many things!
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. :)

Love stories, love - love stories and your love story is beautiful. ❤❤❤
Thank you so much for sharing your pictures they are beautiful.
Hello Todd, Rachael is Gorgeous and you both a beautiful couple. I pray your luck isn’t luck, but that is just the right two people came together and work hard to always stay in love. My best wishes to you both.😉💗
Thanks for sharing. It was a beautiful wedding. ❤
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. 🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋
Enjoyed the video, I can relate to how fast time goes by, this summer it will 42 years for us and I don’t feel that old! But congratulations to you both I’m glad you found each other!❤️
We are too! ♥
Great video. Love y'all💖
You’re going to have a bumper crop of blueberries this year, I’m so jealous that you have both blueberries and mulberries growing in your garden. Love your wedding photographs and you both looked amazing. Not only are you a lucky man to have Rachel as your wife, Rachel is a lucky woman too to have you as her husband and life partner. Many more happy, healthy years together.
Gotta love all the critters Fl. has. Not! I so hate summers here. 🌴🌞🪳🕷🐜🦟🪰🦎🐊🥵 Loved seeing your wedding pics. Very beautiful! Many blessings guys ❤🙏
Perfect. Love y'all!
You were a gorgeous couple and beautiful family!
Awww, you two make me want to squeeze you tight and never let you go. Both of you are so sweet.
Loved the stories, thank you
Todd, enjoyed your video. Nice that you smoked as well as Rachel. I enjoy your videos so much.💕💕
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.
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!
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!
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.
Thx for the story. Blessings, julie
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.
Y’all have a beautiful family i love your photos.
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.
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...
Wow nice wedding pictures. So handsome with your goatee Todd and Racheal looks so sweet
i need to find me something purdy and gardencrazy as rachel. u really hit the jackpot with her.
Nice spending time with you today.
You too! ♥
Love the wedding pics and story!! Very attractive family but I’m a fan of clean shaven … very handsome
great video!!
Delightful video❣️
Beautiful couple you guys are ! Blueberry 🫐 & your pine trees look great. You can make yourselves some pine needle tea 🫖
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!
O lights are the best quality, everyone in our family has one. I have the worrier as a weapon on my night walks.
Love the photos.Oh man thats terrible about the sand fleas though
Beautiful ❣
you are both very lucky to have each other.
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 enjoy your stories!
Glad you like them! ♥
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
Lovely!it's usually the wife that tells that story!
Love that weeding tool! Thanks for sharing photos! Todd! You have a pretty face so why do you cover it up! Lol You two make an adorable couple.
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!
Awww too cute! ❤️ Kristy in Missouri 😃🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Sweet couple!
Handsome couple for sure ♥️♥️
Maybe a brick border. You could weed eat against it. Or a concrete box border s you can plant hearts or flowers in the holes. 👩🌾💛
Bricks are great. You can bring your lawnmower over the brick and have a nice edge
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.
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 your video!:))
You two literally make me a better person wife and mother !! Honestly you work so well together and have the best advise ♥️
Me too! Todd & Rachel rock!!
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.
I ordered my husband a set of O-light's last night, they wouldn't let me use your code because it was a flash sale item, but I hope you got credit for me trying to use it.
Yes, Rachel is stunning...but, you're 👁️ 🍬 too!! Two beautiful people, thru and thru.🥀
...So very handsome! 👍😍
Beautiful Family
I love your story. My husband and I were married on the beach in Half Moon Bay, dressed to the hilt but barefooted.
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.
We do have bad sand fleas, but Pensacola Florida is a beautiful place to live.
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?
😁💡👍
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!
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.
My bestest cool people..I love your life....keep well.Love from Kenya Africa.
Sounds like a nice flashlight. Haven't heard of the proximity sensor on a flashlight either.
