Nervous Wife vs. Winter Farm Prep | What Could Go Wrong?

Winter is coming fast, my husband is leaving, and I have NO idea how to prep the farm! ❄️😱 In today's video, we are racing against the freeze to save our pipes.
Watch as my husband (the expert) tries to teach me (the very nervous rookie) homestead winter prep 101. The mission? To learn how to use an air compressor to blow out our water lines before they burst. It’s chaos, it’s loud, and—of course—the twins have plenty of interruptions for us along the way!
In this vlog, you'll learn:
The basics of winterizing farm equipment without panicking.
A beginner's guide on how to hook up air compressor hose fittings (so you don't blow anything up!).
Real-life farming tips for families juggling kids and chores.
If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by home improvement tasks or just want to see if I survive this tutorial without breaking the machine, this video is for you!
👇 QUESTION: What is the one winter chore you absolutely DREAD doing? Let me know in the comments!
