Seldom without a kid or a cup of coffee, we wanted to take a moment to celebrate the DIY or Die patriarch. It's not easy to live off the grid, but he does so cheerfully, even when he has to start the generator in the middle of the night in freezing rain. 😂 He always prioritizes his family's comfort and safety over everything else. He is selfless, kind, patient, and a wonderful father!
Happy Father's Day to all the fathers out there!

Wishing all Mothers out there a happy and blessed mothers day!
We are taking a break from posting videos today to be with family to celebrate Lilly, our DIYorDIE matriarch, for all her love, hard work, and sacrifices she makes to raise our children and keep the home fires burning.
It's important to remember that we are not just raising walls, we are raising a family!
If you've made it this far, get off youtube, go call your Mom, wish her Happy Mother's Day and thank her for all the love and sacrifices she has made for you over the years! 🙂
God Bless all the Mothers out there, and see y'all next week!
Happy Solemnity of the Resurrection from our family to yours!
We'll see y'all next week.
Hey y'all, catch our next video on Sunday around 4pm EST!
We received some shocking news from the county, and everything is about to change.
Help us settle a marital debate: is Dewalt pronounced Dee-walt or Deh-walt?

Now that the well saga is over, we are tackling the subfloor!

Hey y'all! Catch our next video later this afternoon!
The well saga comes to a close, but in true DIY or Die fashion, it's never simple.
Sneak peek!
The well is down, and it took our solar power system with it. Our house build is on pause while we troubleshoot and get to the bottom of this.

Hey guys! Catch our next video at 4pm today, and watch how we finish framing the floor!
The nail gun behaved itself, and the weather cooperated, so we are moving full steam ahead!
We officially hit 5,000 subscribers this weekend! It's a bit surreal that so many are following along as we build our off grid house, but we are so grateful for all y'all's support! Stick around for more building and shenanigans!
Welcome to our channel! We are Justin and Lil, plus four kids and a baby on the way! We have been living full time, off the grid (no public utilities), in a 28ft RV while pursuing our dream of building an offgrid homestead on 18 acres of raw land. One of our top goals is to DIY as much of the house build as possible and on top of that, we are striving to build the house debt free through the entire process. Between the RV, Vehicles, DIY EG4 Odf-Grid Solar power system, and the house build, there are always a million things that need to be done. The art of DIY has become lost in this consumerist world that encourages buying, trashing and replacing instead of living simply, creating things, and repairing them. Also, DIY saves tons of money! Our hope for this channel is that by sharing our journey it will inspire and encourage others to pursue their dreams!
