  • We took our entire family of 10, my wife and 8 kids, on a 2000 mile road trip from California to Colorado! Altogether it was about 26 hrs of driving. It took us a long time to edit this video, so we weren’t even sure if we were even going to put this one out.. so here we go, this was the video you were never supposed to see!

    Alena, you were meant to be a mother. Your compassion, patience, strength & laughter is endless! Joel is kind, strong, even keel and a great example of a father whose consistent in the life of his children. The skills you all teach your children at a young age (swimming, sharing in the house hold responsibilities, working hard in school, looking out for one another, etc)- are skills that will stay with them forever! (Teach a child in the way that he should go, and he will not depart from it.) And the seed that you all are planting in their spirits theu traveling is teaching them to be curious and adventurous about the world! Keep it up Mazelee, God bless!!

    Alena has my respect, she is raising the kids with so much grace and strength. The kids are happy and they have their own different personalities with so much conviction and confidence. Well done mama and congratulations on your PHD. And thank you Joe for being a present and loving father and a spouse and I believe that’s where the children get their confidence from and that’s where Alena gets her strength from. God bless you guys. And May God continue to cover your home and give you a good life. I love your Chanel so much and thank you for sharing your journey. 😊❤

    I love how you are making memories. Thanks for sharing what we weren’t supposed to see. Your kids will have wonderful memories to share when they’re much older. 💜

    Lovely couple! It's so refreshing that her husband wants to do what his wife wants to do. He wants to do things with his wife instead of them doing things separated. I just enjoy watching this lovely family.

    Oh dang, I wished I knew you came to Colorado. I am from Colorado, and I'm very excited to see this video of your Colorado Experience. I did watch and enjoyed this family trip. Such a blessing to see y'all in my state.
