    Ok, I literally gasped when the drone footage started and the Hartley was just shining…but then I literally teared up watching the rest. It has come so far in such a short time. Everything is looking so lush. And then Benjamin running around and pushing Samatha…you could see their future in this gorgeous sanctuary and it did me in. Thank you for sharing this all with us. It’s more inspiring than you’ll ever know 🌱💫

      I totally agree. I just LOVE watching GA every day. I've learned so much and Laura and Aaron make me feel like I CAN do this. The property is progressing beautifully. I get a little overwhelmed thinking about taking care of all of that property! LOL The drone footage at the end was the icing on the cake, my eyes were watering watching this lovely family on their beautiful property. So many memories to be made there. Love this family!

The drone shots show how far you’ve come and watching all the hard work you’ve put in to your channel and your property pay off is so satisfying. And Benjamin’s happy dance is the perfect cherry on top. Thanks for sharing your journey with us. It’s been great.

    That last footage with the drone shots left me in tears. On the surface it’s just gardening, it’s land development, projects, plants, structures and trees. But for those who have watched you since the beginning of your CZcams career we know the understory. How dedicated and passionate you are. We’ve gotten to know your family and your day to day. You’re creating such a beautiful thing and for sappy-hearted people like me it’s the absolute definition of romancing the ordinary. I hope you all feel incredibly blessed and know truly what a diamond you’ve created.

    You got a big "awwww" from me as soon as I spotted Benjamin running on the field of grass. Beautiful ending to the video!

    Laura, Aaron, Benjamin, and Samantha are the sweetest family. I love the inspiration and the generosity to share your knowledge of gardening with all of us. As a new gardener and farm owner, I’ve learned so much from you and enjoyed seeing the transformation of your property. It gives me hope it will all come together! The drone footage at the end was INCREDIBLE and we all appreciate everything you do.

    The ending of this video made me SO happy I literally almost cried. So much beauty from absolutely nothing. 💜 I imagined that saying "all because two people fell in love" and it made me think of my grandparents.

    Ditto what others have said about the drone footage at the end. I love ALL your content and I've learned so much, but I wept with joy for your family watching the drone footage. When I think about the 1.37 MILLION subscribers you have blessed by sharing your love and knowledge about gardening, and all the friends and family you bless when you say "Come and get it!" AND then the produce you so generously share with your community, I am so thankful that you are able to do what you love and be blessed abundantly in return. Thanks so very much for the example you are to so many -- gracious, generous, kind, loving ... reminds me of "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control." Thank you, thank you, thank you.

    I get so excited to watch each episode - you make us feel as though it is our own garden and we're planting along with you. Thank you. My garden is all over 2x4m so I think I am living vicariously through you to enjoy a beautiful big space becoming your own.

    I NEVER comment on anything, but your videos and instruction have inspired me so much. THANK YOU!!!!! The drone shots at the end of this video are breathtaking.......simply breathtaking. I'm 64 years old and have just started gardening. You have given me so much to strive for, think about, and dream about. I'm on a retirement path that is filled with joy and you have helped me on my journey!!!!!!!!

    Thank you Laura and Aaron for another job well done. I truly believe the reason your channels have grown is that for many of us, you are the sane, normal, happy, bright spots in our day. I for one am happy you consciously choose to keep the outside out of the beautiful world you share with us 👏

    Drone shots really bring it to life…it looks amazing. I don’t think the high tunnels look out of place. If it’s a practical need then leave or move them back a little.
    PS. Your Benjamin & Samantha Grace are going to love growing up there. What memories they’ll create!

    I have to say how much your aerial footage warmed my heart. Seeing Benjamin running on the new lawn with Laura and baby girl strolling along was beautiful. Perfect music choice as well. Thank you so much for doing it. I know it's time intensive. ♥️

  • @keifers
    @keifers Před 3 lety

    Agreed! 2 years in the transformation is beautiful. The final couple of minutes was just…..ahh! Then to see Benjamin running through the green grass to meet mom and sister was, wipe a tear away, just magically sweet and beautiful. Bless you all.

    Benjamin stole the show with this video. Speaking from a grandmothers point of view I can tell you there is nothing better than seeing your grandkids so excited to run and have fun. Its the best. Oh and I love watching planting videos too.

    I loved seeing the drone footage of the new areas. The Hartley was stunning, the paths were defined, the cut garden was so formal, and the green grass area was lush . The ending with Benjamin running and meeting you and Samantha was priceless. What a great yard to play in, I see soccer goals in the future!

    That final drone sequence did me in! Real tears! I literally gasped when little Benjamin was running on his grass. My husband thinks I’m insane (thanks for that). This channel, and your amazing family, truly feeds my soul. If you only knew how many “Laura pots” or “Laura arrangements” I have. Thank you for being a part of this world!

    Drone shots were BEAUTIFUL!! I believe the drone of Laura, Benjamin and Samantha Grace in the stroller brought a little added magic to this video. You’ll look back on this some day and see how beautiful Aaron sees his family!! (Anyone else in their feels?)

    Thank you Aaron for putting up the drone. I don’t know if I’m the only one who gets confused of what is where, but this helped a lot. Watched several times, only wished it was in slow motion. I can’t believe what you two (and help) have accomplished this year. The end with Laura and the kids almost made me cry. Like the end of a beautiful movie where everyone lives happily ever after. Aaron you should have been in that last shot too with you flying the drone. That would have made it perfect.
