And then there were 5.. The Gaines crew is now 1 stronger! 10 beautiful toes and 10 beautiful fingers all accounted for, and big momma is doing great!

I dont know daryl, & he clearly doesnt know me. But for the record: If there is ever a need w/ my family (1st), I'll shut this circus down so fast it will make your head spin. BUT jo & I believe, w/ God anything is possible. Including having an amazing family AND career you love.
No such thing as a "perfect marriage." For me, its always been simple: commitment. Every morning I wake up committed, and pray that she chooses the same. And so today, again, I choose my beautiful bride. To have and to hold.. till death do us part.

#heresToManyMore
🥂I love u❣️
We will look back on all this and either feel a sense of pride in how we all handled this time of uncertainty, or we will be sad at how little faith and courage we had. Please, keep the faith, and find the courage to hope. Better days are right around the corner I promise.

Jo’s cookbook is officially out! Let me tell you, she’s poured her heart into this book, and I couldn’t be more proud. I think your belly is gonna love it as much as mine does.

Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you."
Teachers—we need you and we love you! School looks a little different this fall, and we want to help any way we can, so reply here with your wishlist. If you’re not a teacher, wouldn’t it be something if we cleared ALL of their lists? We can if we work together!
#CleartheLists
How’s everyone doing? There are lots of really tough decisions being made in businesses like ours all over the world today. Tough, hard decisions. If you would, can I ask you to pray for jo & me, & ALL the business owners having to work through these unimaginable situations.

Y'all.. we did it! The Copp family's mortgage has been paid in full. Thanks for teaming up with us to get this thing finished! Their lives are forever changed because of your generosity.
1 benefit of having an 8 year gap between crew & his older sister.. NO ONE has to tell me how fast he’ll grow up. I know, & I don’t want to miss a second of it!
#iCouldDoThisAllDay
Weekly “date nights” are a major priority in our marriage. I guess the way I see it.. if “dates” were a priority before getting married, why wouldn’t they be a priority after.
#makeSense
Sooo much to be thankful for today! If it all comes crashing down tomorrow.. Your faith. Your family. Your friends and community. That’s all any of us truly need.
Alright, alright.. if we're going to announce the gender of our
#5th
child. It might as well come from my new friend
#Gage
! Take it away my man.

A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another.
By this everyone will know that you are set apart, if you love one another.
So, Joanna learned the “downward dog” yesterday, and I’m not sure if it’s had any positive effects on her per se.. but I can say it’s changed my life. 😳
We are sooo thankful for all you teachers!! Send me your wishlist today.. I’m going to clear as many as I can!! As always (non-teachers) if you see a list that hasn’t been cleared, jump in and help out.
#CleartheList
Happy Father’s Day TO ME. And of course.. to my dad! He’s the best! As I’m sitting here today, at a 10 yr old baseball game, I’m reminded of ALL the games my dad refused to miss when I was this age. Thanks to all the dads out there, who wouldn’t miss a ball game for the world..
What a whirlwind! nyc, jo's book tour, Jimmy Fallon, soo much food! So whats the "day after" look like for the gaines'? Early morning chores. Hot coffee. Making breakfast for the kids & Joanna. Getting my son ready for his football game. Pretty much like every other day I guess..
I’m not going to lie.. I absolutely HATE golf. My nemesis sport, the antibaseball. But you know what I don’t hate, time well spent with these beautiful boys.
#doSomething
Thank you so much for all the birthday well wishes! It was a great day with family and friends!! Certainly feels good to be alive. Must be more to do.. and Look at me with 1M followers! thanks jo, just what Ive always wanted.

When I got into this, I "thought" marathoners were crazy. Well, now I know they are. But Crazy in all the best ways. Crazy dedicated. Crazy supportive. Crazy loyal. The
#SiloDistrictMarathon
was beautiful & painful. Full of camaraderie & competition. It was more than I imagined!!
2) So to our black brothers and sisters, from deep in the heart of the Gaines family that dates back 100’s of years, WE ARE SORRY, and we stand with you ready to change.
Thankful for the life and work of the truly inspirational
@BillyGraham
. His simple message changed my family forever. Thank you Mr. Graham, may you rest in peace.
I wish I could sugarcoat this-the last 2 runs have been tough. Yesterday: all up hill & it kicked my butt. Today: 27° & to Texans that feels like -10°. Take away: no one said it would be easy. For me, it’s simple-1 foot in front of the other. You don’t lose unless you quit.

Every day feels like
#FathersDay
to me.. Getting to learn from, shape, & serve these 4 (almost 5) babies of ours is an honor.
I want to say a special thanks to my dad who set the bar so very, very high! Happy

today & every day to dads all over the world.
