A+ Parenting

Chip and Joanna Gaines, although their huge stars now, still find valuable time to spend with their family. Most of this time is because their children all do not have cell phone sand the Gaines' don't even have a TV in their home. Joanna says, "We want to teach our kids that life happens outside of these devices. It's just a simple thing to go outside and connect with nature, play with your friends and get dirty."

Farmhouse Goals

Whether it's the houses Joanna designs on the show or this house of her own, all we know is we have ALL THE HEART EYES for all of it.

Faith and Humble Beginnings

We love how this couple shares their marriage secrets and faith so openly with the world. This is what love looks like.

Husband and Dad Goals

If you follow Chip on any form of social media, or you can even see this in the show, he is constantly making a fool of himself and praising Joanna for putting up with him. Last week he posted the sweetest thing on Twitter.

The Fans

Even after wisdom teeth removal, this fan still raves about the dynamic duo.

We all would like to be Chip and Joanna Gaines, and some couples find the perfect opportunity to play that part on Halloween.

Giveaways

Chip just throws giveaways around like confetti on Twitter all the time, so definitely follow him, if you'd like an extra $420 to spend at Magnolia Market... I NOW WE WOULD.

Their Humor

Just because they're television stars, doesn't mean their life is all serious business, they both still find time to be hilariously silly with each other, on and off camera.

Joanna's Testimony

If you've never watched this video of Joanna's testimony, we definitely recommend it as a must-see.

In the end, if we could all spend a day in Chip and Joanna's life we would probably take it. Thankful this couple has opened up their lives to so many adoring fans and shared about their adventures on "Fixer Upper".

Barn Pros

Growing up I have always wanted to own a horse. My grandparents own a well known equestrian facility in Georgia, so I have been riding since I was born. A bond between a person and their horse is a bond so strong that it cannot be broken. Everywhere I went I wanted to be around horses, even forcing my family to go on trail rides during vacations. Horses have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember has taught me great responsibility, as well as 14 things that all equestrians can relate to.

College is super hard. Between working, studying, and having a social life, it feels like a struggle to just keep afloat.

I understand. When you feel like your drowning and there's no way to stay afloat I understand that it feels like everyone else is doing just fine. I understand all the frustration, long nights in the library, and that feeling that you want to just throw in the towel. I understand that sometimes it's too hard to get out of bed because your brain is already filled with too much information to remember. I understand because I am also feeling pretty burnt out.

No Matter How Challenging School Gets, You Have To Put Your Health First — A Degree Won't Mean Anything If You're Dead

Some of the best advice I've ever received was from my social studies teacher in sophomore year of high school. He stated, "If you don't know it at midnight, you're not going to know it for the 8 a.m. exam, so get some sleep."

It's such a simple piece of advice, but it holds so much accuracy and it's something that the majority of college students need to hear and listen to. "All-nighters" are a commonality on college campuses in order to cram in studying for an exam that is typically the next day.

Sometimes my brain just starts turning on an idea and it doesn't want to stop.

I don't know if it is related to my anxiety, perfectionism or depression. I don't know why it happens. It's frustrating, it's painful and it stops me from functioning.
