Every time I see Joy and Carlin together, it takes me a few minutes to remember that the two are not actually related. It always feels like you are sisters or at least cousins! Very sweet of you to share a few moments of your conversation and reminiscences with us. 😊
I know I use to watch both families on TV. I remember the episode of the Duggars going on vacation and they stopped at Carlin's families house and stayed a night or two with them. That was a long time ago before the Bringing Up Bates even aired and Joy and her family had their RV's there at the Bates house. That was so awesome and fun watching y'all's family show on TLC now y'all are all grown up, besties, and have families of your own. Yayyyyy
My best friend of 35 years is British. We struck up a conversation in Central Park Manhattan and exchanged postal information because we really felt we knew each other forever. Now whenever I go to London every six months to a year we pick up as if it were yesterday. Those are the best of friends especially when your children can call her an auntie
Hi Joy! I really enjoy your vlogs! Would you mind sharing what your phone case is? I would love to have one like that and I don’t know where to look for it. Thank you very much if you can do that that would be wonderful. 👍
My best friend and I meet when we were 9& 10 we are now 64 & soonto be 65. We mais of honor in each other's weddings they are still going great ar 45 yrs. Friendship's are like a great marriage they grow and evolve as we age. Enjoy your time together ❤️
Joy, you look so light-hearted and happy with Carlin❤️❤️❤️ it's been a long time since I've seen you this happy👍👍👍 it makes me smile. You just can't beat "girl bonding"❤️❤️
Its a blessing to have a best friend, I've had my best friend over 43 years now we talk every day and do things together all the time. I thank God for that blessing that he gave me. Glad you had a good time while your Hubby was away.
I really enjoy the Forthsyth family videos. Its nice to occasionally see the younger Dugger kids and how they are growing up. Whenever I see Josie I immediately think of the first time we saw her tiny self in the incubator. God is good!!! There is no doubt, miracles are real.
Or… science Look at how many babies didn’t survive when born with any little thing wrong. Families were purposely having a bunch of kids for the purpose of having some left when a lot of them inevitably die.
@@LeAnnConnellI don’t think they found out exactly what’s causing it yet. She’s supposed to be having an in hospital 5 day EEG soon I think and hopefully that will tell them more.
❤ Joy, I have mad respect for you to pay attention to your younger siblings. I do worry about them and the negative press. What a nice video. May God Bless You!
Fun hanging out with friends and family. Did Carlin like Pad Thai? It’s one of my favorites. Gunner was so cute smiling at Carlin. You are blessed to have a friend that long.
It was so special that Carlin came and stayed with you for a few days. My best friend and I have been best friends since 1989!! 😮 I dated her brother until I met my husband, and we remained friends. Good friends are hard to find. You both are special to one another, and I love it!!
Shame on that girl for saying that ..joy u & austin are gr8 parents u just ignore the negative comments ur kids are so happy & precious its obvious u take very good care of them in a good way
Joy I have been wanting to tell you this for the longest time. I totally agree with Carlin about Gunner. He is totally got your looks! That smile is yours his dimples, and he seems so chilled, like you! I agree that your other two favor their dad . Enjoy that baby because he is growing so fast!
I think it's the best thing ever to have such a deep beautiful friendship like you and Carlin have. You can see by your constant smiles how much you find each others company so joyful and at such ease. It's beautiful. So glad for you both. I'm sure God looks down and smiles so big when he sees you both together. Love it. Two beautiful lovely ladies enjoying each others company . Friends are so important too. We have our husband's who we love but friends are just as important I feel. Love you both 😍
I’m always impressed how you all just make things happen! It takes work to get together! Love how you use the RV!!! You learned a lot of good skills and how to embrace the adventurous spirit from your parents Joy! 🥰
I love watching you grow up and becoming a beautiful mother. You and Austin are wonderful parents and you can see your love for one another. You have beautiful children too!
I love love love their family!! I look forward to each new episode👍They love all their family do their thing and enjoy life! They do not seem to be attention seekers and Joy includes us all in on advice or helping us with her thoughts I like her husband Austin! He is a hard worker also…Keep it real Joy!! We love you guys! May God Bless! !
I have a best friend that I met in my 20s at my first office job. We are still best friends to this day, we went through a lot of life moments together including new relationships and marriages, having babies, break ups and divorces, losing grandparents and parents and aunts and uncles, losing friends, moving, changing jobs and changing careers, and we are in our 40s now and we cry and laugh about it all. And that’s the beauty of female friendships. Thank you for sharing you bff story ❤❤❤ “There is no blessing like GOOD FRIEND.” ❤
So glad you got to spend time with Carlin! It is so special to find and have true best friends! Looks like you all had a good time!! Austin sorry no luck on meat in the freezer! Love Y’all! Love and Prayers Always
Joyanna has the best and clearest take on things. She owns herself and has no need to drag another down to elevate herself! She just has it centered and composed...w/o any one pushing her to GET HER SHARE! Yeah...Carlin is out and about!! YES JOY...GUNNAR IS YOU.
Not every instance of dragging someone else down is to elevate yourself. Some people don’t deserve to have their terribly ways hidden. Everyone has the right to talk about their trauma, even when it’s caused by others. Some people are sick and deserve to be exposed because it helps others who may be going through the same thing
@@alliesteph6274 Some do need exposure..but I see some of the very worst and very dangerous ones flying under the radar! I also see a very anti Christian bent to all this..as a Jew I am all too familiar with dragging certain religions down!
@@kimlersue pedophiles and child abusers are the worst of the worst. And sorry to say it, but a LOT of Christian’s, Jim bob for example will hide behind their religion and use it to excuse actions over and over again. Christian’s get dragged down because of their poor actions and hypocrisy that you see in about half of them. Boo hoo too bad, it’s called consequences, and being religious doesn’t exempt you from that.
Omgoodness!!!! You were eating at Firstwatch!! I work for Firstwatch in Dallas! I love all you girls and your family!! It is so nice to see all of you all grown up now! May God forever bless your family!
I love Carlin. Gunner is definetly a little Joy. To have a friend you have to be a friend. Long friendships are priceless. Don't let it end. Love your sweet family.
Loved seeing you and Carlin spending time together. I think I remember the lake she was talking about. I'm pretty sure it was on an episode of Bringing Up Bates. Also, I loved seeing your younger sisters they are growing up so fast. I enjoy watching your youtube channel seeing y'all as a family and watching your kids grow love y'all
Yeah fun , wonderful, sweet , nice and Great video here Joy you and Carlin have a wonderful and beautiful friendship I remember watching you two on bringing up bates Carlin getting ready to marry Evan Carlin said my friendship with joy is such a treasure to me love that episode from bringing up bates loved this video !!! I pray for you joy and your whole family from parents to siblings to Austin and your kids and carlins husband and kids too god bless you !
Can't wait to see the new vlog and hope you guys have a great Friday afternoon and evening with the kids and a wonderful weekend ahead and hope you Joy and Carlin have fun spending time with each other. By the way Gunner is 4 months old and he is so cute and adorable.
I have watched your family ever since it started on TV & iv watched carling family on you tube for quite awhile ,,I never dreamed yall knew each other ,,that is awesome . Both of you are sooooo sweet I can see why yall are long term best friends I hope it stays yalls life time ❤😊
My best friend and I are like this. We met when we were 4, we are both 30 now. She introduced me to my now husband. The lifelong friends are the best. 💞
Everybody needs that friend… Glad you two have each other!!!
I totally agree with Carlin, Gunner looks just like you, Joy! I thought that right away as soon as you had him. The other 2 kids look like Austin.
Marybethkline77, I agree!!
🎉 you got a lovely family God bless you thank you for sharing❤❤❤❤ love you guys

You and Carlin are adorable together! God Bless both of you and your families!
So glad Carlin got to visit you. You two have a special friendship, cherish it❤
Joyanna is one of my favourites out of all the sisters, her and Austin are so well matched.
The oldies are the best shows to watch.
Joy, you look so light-hearted and happy with Carlin❤️❤️❤️ it's been a long time since I've seen you this happy👍👍👍 it makes me smile. You just can't beat "girl bonding"❤️❤️
So glad your sisters got to have a girls night with you. Glad Carlin was able to come visit!!

I would attribute that to physicians and modern medicine…like the incubator you speak of…but to each their own
Or… science
Look at how many babies didn’t survive when born with any little thing wrong. Families were purposely having a bunch of kids for the purpose of having some left when a lot of them inevitably die.
God is indeed great
@@chloecagle6493not all preemies survive despite that so god does play a part.
You and Carlin together like you've never been apart.
I live for these type of Vlogs! Lots of laughs, lots of babies and kids, glimpses of your lives...
A dear friend is the greatest blessing. My best friend and I have been friends for 40 years. I don't know what I do without her.
Glad to see Carlin doing well where she’s able to travel by herself. Looks like you guys had a great time!
Did they ever find out what was wrong with Carlin? It is good to see her well. Her episodes were scary!
@@LeAnnConnellI don’t think they found out exactly what’s causing it yet. She’s supposed to be having an in hospital 5 day EEG soon I think and hopefully that will tell them more.
It’s vaccine injury
Carlin seems more "with it" than poor Joy. Hoping some of it wears off on her.
@@akferren1stop with that already.
❤ Joy, I have mad respect for you to pay attention to your younger siblings. I do worry about them and the negative press. What a nice video. May God Bless You!
@@Net-26 dam you're everywhere. You keep telling people off but you are also voicing an opinion. Try to add more chill to your life.
@@Net-26the truth is quite literally the stuff in the press.
I’m more worried about them being raised by Jim bob and Michele. He is a terrifying man.
@@alliesteph6274 😂😂😂 Oh right!
@@alliesteph6274no it’s not

This is the same for me! I was 16 when she was dating my brother. They broke up when I was 18 or 19 and 25 years later we are still besties!
Great to see you and Carlin spending time together!
Gunner is sweet and so happy, more so than a lot of babies I’ve seen at his age. You can tell he is so loved. Gods blessings on you all.
It’s great to see you and Carlin getting to spend time together!
I love how you and Carlin finish each others sentences❤❤
What a joy it is to see my two favorite girls having fun on the porch! Love you two!
That’s one of the most precious babies!!!!❤
You guys have the smiliest, happiest babies ever!
@@itskayleemichelle3995Maybe someone should make up that kind of slander about your loved ones, and see how it makes you feel? 🤨
I’ve never done blanket training.

Those kind of friendships are the best!!!!..Yall are right jumping from subject to subject is GREAT friendship!
