there there's a big old spider we're
filming right by our window the bugs are
coming to life here in Tennessee which
leads us into um we got to think some
things to talk about we just got some
things to talk about right here's our
monthly lebrandt family catch up we're
catching up with you guys you guys get
to know us we're getting to know you we
bought land we bought land and we need
to fill you guys in on that cuz we're
super super excited about this we are um
and we don't film a lot of YouTube
videos so sometimes like we like post
something but like we don't like share a
lot of the behind the scenes in the
process and I feel like so much of our
past several months has been consumed by
this process of just buying land looking
at land um we looked at a ton of land
but do you want to explain maybe why we
bought land and what our intentions are
with it's definitely always been
something that we've wanted to do like
since we knew we were moving to
Tennessee we were like we want so much
land just to host and we just like being
in the party house especially for for
our kids like when they get older and
they start having the parties we want to
be able to have the parties at our house
so we can
supervise it's kind of selfish but it's
also but in the bigger picture we love
hosting people we want to do like big we
have just so many fun dreams of Hosting
marriage Retreats and that's going be
fun if you're young and you're getting
married or you have been married for a
long time you need to respark that
marriage get ready we're have few more
years into and obviously we aren't going
to be like leading
like bring like some of our marriage
mentors and like my grandparents who are
like 80 years old and they've been
married for like 60 years and like
things like that that you know we just
feel so blessed that we have the means
to get a place um especially just being
so young we we know that there's a lot
of people out there who have the means
to get places but we're in a very unique
situation to where we have the means and
we're around a lot of young people and
just most young people um finances are
tough so we we love the opportunity to
be able to host a lot of young people
that maybe otherwise wouldn't be able to
have an opportunity like that right yeah
um also a couple other things were just
like fun dreams that we had is having
like worship nights in a big barn for
our kids for Everly for future when
posie and Zeal all rest of it's like
outside of like a church setting that's
like almost like a real outside nature
setting Bible studies with tons of kids
got string lights and the bonfires and
like the just lots of fun stuff we have
lots of fun dreams for the land but
initially when we moved here we thought
we wanted lots of land um and that's
kind of what we were hoping for and then
we landed on this house which we love so
much we're so happy that
we yes and I'm so happy that we bought
it because like you said we wouldn't
have moved here but we definitely have
always known that like in the backb head
this isn't our forever house because we
want to be on more land just a little
bit more in the country and this land
that we bought isn't even that far into
the country it's still just as close to
everything like we're only moving 20
minutes away but we're moving closer to
all of Everly's friends we're moving
honestly probably like 2 3 minutes
closer to their school and to her dance
studio so it's all just in a good spot
it took us several months to figure out
like the area where go the area our
weekly routines but now where we kind of
realize we're we spend most per time um
so a lot of people were like but you
just moved but we're only moving like 15
we're still going doing all the same
things um and hanging out with all the
same friends and same church and
everything but uh we're super stoked on
that so we're actually going to go to
the land right now and show it to you
guys right now there's nothing there
there's an old house that you're going
to see that we're probably going to
demolish and rebuild we we do plan to
move here so we'll sell our house this
is all going to take probably 2 years um
but it's a process cuz we got to build a
new house and all these things that
we're talking about yeah and um it'll be
fun cuz we can take you guys on the
journey and all the fun stuff yeah but
here's the land this is just a view of
the Land There is a house here that we
are going to demolish as you can see it
was kind of like a house in project um
and it's just it's just easier to demo
it so we're going to going to demo it
there's not going to be anything here
and we're going to build from scratch
but we will give you guys a Land Tour
cuz we bought it for the land so here's
the front yard it's out here green grass
you hear the birds chirping and here's
the house um I'll show you guys inside
real quick cuz we talked about
potentially just renovating it and
living here but once I show you the
inside and talking with the Architects
it just makes a lot more sense to demo
it and build from the ground up so it's
pretty bare there's nothing in here
right now
it was going to be like a a
project um but to get the house that
we're kind of thinking of living in for
a long time this house is built quite a
long time ago and it just doesn't really
have a lot of the structure that we're
thinking makes sense so there's already
a Red Barn in the property you guys hear
the sounds of
nature bird somewhere he those birdies
[Music]
buddy and right back here behind these
trees there's a really pretty Pond and
Creek that we're going to build out
here's the side of the pond and as you
come
around you got a tree line with a little
path here and you'll see a little gate
that opens up just what we love is then
you walk through this gate and you
almost think like the property ends but
then you got this whole back 10 acres
right here but this is just where we
want to do so many of the events have a
barn maybe build another house in time
obviously over the course of like you
know 5 10 15 20 years who knows what
this could turn into but but we just
love having the space to be able to do
some cool things there's this really
pretty Creek at the back of the property
right Zealand right behind the tree line
that I showed you guys it just flows all
the way through all the way down all
right so there's our land there's our
dream and we're excited to bring you
guys along for the journey so just get
ready again uh we aren't like Farmers
I've also seen some questions about like
um like no we aren't Farmers but I also
think that there's no shame uh about
trying something and obviously have a
lot of help uh like all of our neighbors
are farmers and they are very I mean
people here are just so kind trying to
have like a million animals but we just
want like a couple cows and a couple
goats and we'll start slow right we'll
start with maybe like just a chicken
coop and see how that goes and so um
we're just trying to learn obvious my
kids are big animal lovers you guys even
if it seems like me and Cole aren't the
biggest animal lovers because we don't
have a dog or whatever that may be and
we're also going to be very realistic
about like yes we're going to get some
cute Instagram pictures that's going to
happen but I also like we don't film a
ton on here but we will be very honest
about the reality of animals are messy
and stinky and farm life is dirty and
hot and sweaty they're also outside
animals so they stay outside which is
nice yeah Savannah's in her last can you
get the can you stand up for the people
for the people for the people so guys
like I feel we really talk about oh
that's good perfect shot great
Savannah's in her last like 3 weeks of
pregnancy I am right I mean I know she's
not like massive she's like a tiny
pregnant lady but I mean I feel like
it's very big this is the biggest I've
ever gotten I think so you need to tell
people how you're feeling cuz Savannah's
not feeling the greatest not wonderful
she's not feeling wonderful The Last I
See the last like 3 or four weeks you
got three or four weeks prob these last
like five six weeks have been rough but
now we're at 3 weeks and it's just like
I'm like feel like I'm sleep better with
a newborn I know you don't talk a lot
about your pregnancy at least compared
to our previous pregnancy so you can
like kind of quickly fill everybody up
the beginning of my pregnancy is always
really stinky just because I'm so sick a
lot though cuz I'm so sick for like the
first 16 17 weeks and then I'm like
rocking and rolling for the middle of
the pregnancy I love being pregnant and
then once these last like six weeks hit
it's just rough like I just lose all my
energy I'm tired obviously I have a lot
of kids so I probably plays into it too
but swell up it's to get hot here in
Tennessee it's just not the best so we
even joke like you're a little older
than your previous pregnancies not a lot
but yeah you're not I'm just more tired
I'm just more tired that's it yeah can't
really but she's a rockar guys she is
such a rock star she she's hard on
herself but she has four children I mean
we have four children and I'm I'm here
and I help out a lot but um Savannah
runs the show in our house she is the
mom and she does such a good job she
worked hard she doesn't complain
Savannah is not a complainer ever so I
know she gets awkward when talk about
this but she she's just she is the best
and she loves her kids and she's so
intentional and she just does everything
so that's why she's so tired cuz she she
puts all of her effort in she she has
every right and I would let her just go
and lay in bed all day whenever she
feels bad go and lay bed and if you're
pregnant you totally have every right to
do I'm not shaming anybody who do I'm
not anpp and she just pushes through she
pushes through and she loves her family
and she's the best I love it I like
feeling tired by 9:00 and just falling
right asleep yeah it's nice but but I am
ready to have the baby the baby will be
here in about 3 weeks and we seriously
don't have a name we don't like guys
we're not saying that for like content
like we just don't have a name we talk
about casually scared that this B is
going we're going to be at the hospital
and the baby's not going to have a name
because I could go into labor like next
week cuz I have babies early and she has
a ton of brat Contra all the time like
we knew the other kids' names right away
I would say honestly probably by like 12
15 weeks we knew their names like we
found at the gender we knew the name
pretty much is how it went and we're
like yes that's it and that's why we
would almost say like both it and we
both agreed perfectly this is baby PE
right we like teaser this is baby Z cuz
we knew we had no idea we think that we
maybe kind of like a name that starts
with a B we don't have any B names that
we like we have like a couple like it's
like maybe that's it but we aren't like
now that we're like yeah so I seriously
think that we might bring this baby home
like I might go to the hospital and
bring the baby home and like still don't
have a name for him yeah that could be
rough so I know we've asked for you guys
stuff seriously we we really we don't
read like a lot of comments just cuz we
try not our we've been reading the name
stuff so comment down below late at
night when I get in bed I'm reading your
guys' messages with the name things that
maybe like have like Christian origin in
some way we kind of like we kind of like
be names cuz it goes with lebrand the
middle name is going to be Richard even
though Savannah doesn't love Richard
it's a family name it doesn't have to go
with Richard I think L names could be
cool cuz a lebrand right we don't know
these are things that we're thinking
about comment down kids all have their
favorite names though the kids do so
we're going to go ask the kids uh just
so you guys can hear what their favorite
names are cuz maybe we actually end up
using them at this point I don't really
care if it's a secret like if we
actually knew the name I would like I'm
not doing this for any kind of content
reasons like we just don't know we just
have so we're going to go the kids and
maybe we'll actually end up naming the
baby one of the kid names Maybe
okay we got Sunday Sunday what are we
going to name the baby Sunday what do
you want to name the baby baby baby
