Daddy and Moe crack me up 😊 They have such good relationship . They are like 2 peas in a pod. Netta is beautiful baby ,she is getting to big. What nice helpers are Melody ,Enoch ,Chloe and Anna are. Hugs from Diane in Rhode Island ❤😊
🙏❤️🥰👋
I love the Costco hauls😂 I can't believe I am going to admit I did this, but when Chloe had Neta in her arms, I actually leaned into my phone to get a closer look and thought Neta might smile🤪As a long time Grandma now, I am surely losing it 😂❤ Prayer's for everyone on this blessed day🙏
❤️❤️❤️
The flatter the sweet onion, the sweeter it is.
Wow I never knew that!
Make sure when Naomi plants her garden that she puts the basil in a different spot than last year. It's good to rotate your plants each year
Moses and his red boots make me smile!! The littles are all so sweet!! Time is passing so fast, Neta is awake more in the recent videos and next year, she’ll be running around with her siblings helping you guys shop! ❤
Mo is talking so well!! This family is absolutely lovely, every single one of them!
Amber - Happy National Day of Prayer! Praying for you and your family. 🙏 Your channel has blessed me. ❤
Thank you!❤️❤️🙏
I look forward every week for your shopping video love them God blessed your family
I loved the pictures at the very end. I love your Family. Thanks for sharing your time with me. It fills me with Joy. And Moe is starting to talk so well.
Hi Amber. Only you tube family I’m interested in what they are purchasing for and cooking for dinner. So interesting to me. 😊
How sad.
@@dinahquillen9380 Why is that sad?
@@dinahquillen9380 why is it sad? I’ve tried to watch other KZhead videos, but they’re just not as interesting as Amber‘s family. I’m just being honest. I wish them the best,but I will not be watching their channel.
@@BlessedbytheKingofKings Oh, I see. So like the other viewer you only want to watch this one. Thanks for clearing that up!
@@maggie2sticks717 What does it matter? LOL!
Anna and Chloe great example of sister-best friend relationship ❤️❤️
Little Netta!! That sweet face! I love shopping with you! Sending love from Wisconsin❤️✨
Thank you!❤️Love to you guys too!
Prices are crazy everywhere. Your family eats well.
Hi Amber. Apparently, if you store mushrooms in a paper bag they last much longer🙏🏻❤️
Oh good to know!
I’m a native New Yorker. For some reason, if I wait until after mother’s day to plant outside, that’s when plants do their best
Oh that’s good to know!
Totally agree with you and also the plant prices go down .
Mark gets the groceries, packs the groceries, unloads the groceries. He also does majority of cooking, looks after the youngest boy and works. Good on you Mark.
He's the definition of head of the household, he takes charge and leads by example! I really respect that.
And Amber birthed 11 kids, breastfed, homeschools, plans the meals, films, edits and uploads, answers comments, and a host of other things we don’t see. They both work hard!
Breastfeeding, are you positive about that????
@@Tessie2601 yes she’s mentioned it multiple times.
I ran errands all day today and was exhausted by the time I got home. Watching your videos relaxes me no matter what the content.❤ Thank you again for the joy you and your family bring to the viewers. Blessings 🙏
🙏❤️
Marc, those date night shopping kisses cost you a bundle 😅 but I'm sure they're always worth it! Love your family ❤
Hydrangeas are beautiful. They lose their leaves in winter but bloom beautifukky all summer and autumn. Then you can dry the blooms for decoration!
Neta is just getting cuter and cuter!
A really good shopping trip! 😊 I Love flowers, very pretty ones Naomi picked out. Naomi your hair is beautiful, I think it's a nice length. Everything has gotten so expensive, good job meal planning. I enjoy the different meals and snacks ya'll choose. Prayer Day. I'm praying for your family. God is Good! Love to everyone. Have a wonderful and blessed day. ❤ from AR.🌈🗽🍉
Enoch reminds me so much of my 6 year old so sweet and kind!
How cool you found French butter! Nice of Chloe to wear her birthday dress for shopping ! Moses becoming more clearer with his speech! 😊
Love Chloe's dress!! Naomi looks so much like you Amber!❤
I look forward to see you and your wonderful family shop and melody keeps her nails painted
God bless your family, I always look forward to your Costco Hauls, thank you.
Oh my goodness, Neta's eyes are beautiful brown colour. She is also so cute. Thank you for sharing.
Love the hauls!! ❤
Love the Costco shopping experience. Thanks for sharing.
Once again, such marvelous family team work!
Good order of food! Nice video 🌞🌼🗽

What a precious little baby girl ❤
Enoch è un bravo bambino ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Neta looks so cute in her comfy new dress! 🥰
So so precious … your dear family. Thank you for sharing
All the girls look so pretty in their dresses! Love shopping with you guys ❤️❤️
The red boots. I ❤them amd love your sweet family
Moe is just the cutest
Amber, have you thought about getting one 9f those hydroponic herb growing units? You would have herbs and greens almost all the time and it would be a great teacher in different methods of growing.
Neta was wearing her new dress! So cute.❤️✌🏻
Beet greens are really good
pretty musical note in Naomi’s hair🌷
Neta is the luckiest baby to have such loving parents and siblings💕
Wow, look at Chloe's walk!!!! I'm so overjoyed to see her improving with each video, just wow 💖💖
Great video. Love from Alabama.
Also try also they have lots choose from if there out of at Trader Joe’s they have breads etc cheese
Omg mo is talking so good well done Mo Naomi looks so pretty in her. Green dress she picks out such gorgeous produce Nat is so beautiful. Such a good baby thank u Marc and Amber for going to put. Beautiful food on the table for the kids
Enoch is soso sweet
You can make a vegetable stock with all the veggie remnants (carrot peels, beet greens, etc.).
The abundance of lamb is also because we are celebrating our Greek Orthodox Easter this week. Sunday May 5th is our Easter. It also includes anybody who is Ukranian, Russian and Greek Orthodox. Not to be confused with the Jewish Orthodox community who celebrate Passover.
Oh that’s good to know!
Suteed beet greens w/ gark a a pit of goat cheese. yum!
Sounds so good!
You can make ur own compost it’s cheaper and better for your plants- get miracle grow for the veggies ❤
Great vlog
Miss Netta una principessa ❤️
I make roasted beet tacos with goat cheese and sautéed onions. I also sauté the beet greens in there as well.
The plant you got put by wall and if you have tea bags and coffer pods y When used put them on plant there good for them love youe shopping trips ❤❤☘️☘️☘️🎻🎼🙏
Thank you for the advice!🙏
Another great shop , wow Naomi is a true jack of all trades , cooking and gardening, beautiful Naomi.. The children love Trader Joe's picking out their weekly treats.. beautiful little Netta will soon be able to sit in the trolley.. Have a good movie night with your treats children.. Have a wonderful week beautiful family.. 🙏💜

@TheHappyCaravan Or cart as you call them in America, in Australia we call them a Trolly... 🙏
Cart is what they are in America, in Australia, we call them a trolley.. 🙏
Buonasera famiglia 😘😘💗 let's go shopping 🎉🎉🎉 .... Time goes so fast it's almost Friday again.... 😂 ... Hope you are all doing well.... Oh yeah looking forward to another video about what you eat during the week .. Always very inspiring 😊.... Un grande abbraccio (a big hug ) ❤❤
Buonasera! Grazie!❤️🙏
If you take your mushrooms out of their packages and place them in a paper bag in the fridge they will last a whole lot longer!❤
Oh good to know!
Another fun video. More flowers for sale because Mother's Day is coming up. And temps. will warm up a bit now that we are in May.
Oh yes! That makes sense!
Chloe è simpatica ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
hydrangeas like cooler shady spots
Watching this before I settle down to study for the bar exam ❤. Can you please do a video showing how you/Marc make the Lamb Korma? ❤
Yes! We made a video about it!❤️
Amber and Naimi, the hydrangea can either be planted in a larger planter and placed indoors or they also do well outdoors. They will come back every season if you put them in the ground
*Naomi sorry for the fat fingers mistake Naomi
I believe the trader Joe prosceto was recalled for Ecoli or samenella
You should try tortilla pizzas for lunch or dinner for your family !!
Hello Happy Caravan! Hope you are all doing well and greetings from the UK 🇬🇧 Earlier today I was food shopping and some lady was moaning to herself in an isle saying how she really needs to learn to pack her trolley (cart) as she constantly squashes her bread and veggies. I laughed with her and said. ‘If you need lessons in trolley stacking perfection then go and watch the Happy Caravans food shopping vlogs as Mark deserves his own channel just on this!’ We laughed together and she said she would check them out 😂😂 Marks cart stacking skills have reached the UK chat in the supermarket isles 😂😂💜
Aw thank you! Haha yes Marc is my cart packing teacher too!😅❤️
@@TheHappyCaravan❤
u can use full fat greek yougart as replacement for creme fresh or sour cream but sour cream will be a bit more tangy I found full fat greek yougart is closest
You have always nice hauls and you get every times haelty things Here in Belgium i have a store to where the price of some things going up and down I always look for good deals
Yes! I love it when I find good deals!
Which store is that? My ex husband lives in Belgium, maybe I can give him that tip😊
@@marjoleinvanlieshout9429 one store calls Colruyt and if you take your time there than can you find deals with 33% or 50% off if you buy 2 or 3 things if you use alot and in the other store that calls Albert Heijn there you can get 1+1 or 2+3 deals or with discounts With the store cards then can you get the deals
Love the hydrangea flowers they are the best flowers, they last for years.The only thing with Hydrangea flowers they love the shade too much sunlight will kill them. We had ours for 5 years now.
greek yogurt and or sour creme are perfectly good substitutions for creme fraiche
Yes! I was glad to find that out!
Green salsa is made out of Tomatillos . It's like a green tomato cover like a lantern. There baked and blended with fixings of yum. For your daughter on plants have her look into micro greens plants. I'm doing tomatoes and others they grow fast to harvest and stay small for liny yard's who want more on food's.
Basil can't tolerate full Sun - needs some shade - and a lot of water - might help. Also, if you buy the plant from a grocery store - it won't continue to grow - unless I guess if you pull a stem and root it(?). I think they are forced plants - you could just try from seed (not sure if that is what you did). A plant from a nursery should also do well.
Naomi have you made Edmonds NZ recipe choc chip cookies..they have condensed milk in them and are so delicious... especially with a glass of milk
Wow sounds good!
Cover up your young basl with sonething until its warm enough maybe? Once the heat arrives it will grow beautifully.!
If you put basil outside recently it may have frostbite....In the Northeast technically no planting till Memorial day. I usually plant on Mother's day and just watch the weather. Cold weather plants can go in late March...like lettuce. Good luck!
I left a message a month ago or so when they began buying fresh herbs and flowers for the shed. I said may 15 here in NC. Plus those greenhouse plants from grocery stores have to be hardened off and I explained about that.
Yes! Definitely need to give it another try!
Greek Easter is this weekend! They cook lamb for Greek Easter.
For your garden, gather all the banana skins , soak in water for a few days, in a bucket and then water your plants.
Kerry Gold butter from Ireland is grass fed 100% of the time and is much cheaper than Kirkland's grass fed butter (wich is grass fed about 80% of the time)
Make sure to give the hydrangea lots of room to grow. They will get big and so beautiful
Good to know!
And lots of water
Have you ever tried the pizza sauce in the refrigerated section in plastic tubs ? It's really good and can be freezed.
Oh yes! I should try that!
Ciao The Happy Caravan ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
For something different go to the Aldi first and see what u can get there
💛
Il bebè è carino 🤩🤣🤩😍🥰🥰😍
Questo video è stato molto bello 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I see a strong resemblance between Pearl and sweet little Neta
Love family
Looks like I'm wrong about the grocery store plants - apparently they can grow if planted! But I do know they like some shade and lots of water :)
Your average price is pretty close. I think the price of meat makes the difference and now 8 gallon of milk instead of 6. Have you ever thought of mixing half powder milk and part whole milk it is really good and has alot of vitmins and minerals in the powder. Just a thought we did it as a big family on a farm worked well
Yes! I think powdered milk is a good idea. My granny always put it in her coffee and said it was delicious!
Let’s go Costco I love Costco to amber
We seen 1000 of these.😅
@@marie3539 yeah I know 😂
@@user-ze5vr7jz8w it's like OCD ..
Ci vediamo il prossimo video vostro sabato vi aspetto ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
❤️❤️❤️
Hello an ur boys look alike. An ur girls have such long beautiful hair ❤. An those beet greens u can fry them up in a pan or use in a salad but u have to cook the bitterness out of them a min or two with seasoning an butter. An kerigold butter is very yummy. So is their cheese . Do a butter taste test buy a pack of each. ❤ An buy some nice fresh bread an butter taste test. ❤🎉
Ur daughter in the green dress reminds me of a Disney princess. Her hair is so pretty. What a beautiful family ❤.
