I love love, love, love love the way Jessica talks to Pinocchio in the “Pinocchio voice” lol. I do the exact same thing with my pups. I have two and they have different voices when I talk to them or about them. 🤣🤣🤣
Gotta say, I love this community! The vlogmas comments are hilarious! Thank you for the daily vlogs, I’m catching up while nursing my 1 week old munchkin 🥰🍼 keeping us both entertained 🎉
Yes! I’ll check where we are in the video and realize it’s only half way and think oh they must have some more content after they chat. But no! They are the best content!
listening to this vlog as I'm studying for my clinical anatomy final on the shoulder, elbow, wrist and hand and Jessica says "isn't it crazy how many parts of the body there are?" I simply could not agree more in this moment 😂
Tree toppers with the spiral base can be corkscrewed into the top of the tree. You can even stretch them out a bit before hand then screw it on. The spiral will go around some of the upper branches and hold it in place.
@@Chantal_4107 I only learned about this this year and was like what 🙀! I have an 18 month old who has yet to be able to topple the topper with it put on like this 😂
We, too, have a weak treetop, lol. We finally ended up wrapping black electrical tape around the top branch to make it much sturdier. Works like a charm!
For the tree topper, I can normally get the one tallest branch to go through the top of the spiral where it attaches to the base of the star. It goes up through and behind the star, so it helps prop it up. Sometimes it still goes a little wonky but when I do that and mess with it a bit, I can get it to stay!
To stabilize the tree topper, try putting a wooden pencil or something similar against the top branch (that will be under the topper) to help stabilize it!
I brace my tree topper with wooden dowels poking up through the spiral part of the topper. Usually one in the front of the branch and one behind the branch does the job.
I normally wrap the tallest branch at the top around the coil and also fold one over in the back. But wrapping branches around the coil makes it more stable.
For the tree topper we fold over one branch and stick the topper on and then if it doesn’t seem like it’s staying, we use a zip tie and just cut it off at the end of the season and do it again next year.
Literally watching this at midnight…so I’ll do as I’m told and go right to sleep. Haha! Loving vlogmas so far, glad you both seem to be in good spirits. Wishing everyone a very happy and bright holiday season. ✨💖✨
PIPE CLEANERS. That's my favorite way to secure a tree topper. Floral wire is also good and is easier to hide, but a little more difficult to work with. But pipe cleaners (the same color of the tree) are super helpful!
Ok so my mom was a professional tree decorator (that’s a thing lol) and she always took the highest branch and rather than just shoving it down on top, you wind the branch around the spiral. I really hope that translates lol idk how else to describe it 😂
Try clear fishing wire to weave through the spirals, if your topper has that design, to where you have 2 lines of wire coming out from inside the bottom of the topper. Then tie the wires around the center base of the tree where the topper is placed. Or attach ornament hooks to each wire and anchor to the closest branch on the right and left side of the topper.
Our tree topper was always somehow finessed on with fishing line. My dad also tied the tree to the column next to the wall with fishing line so it wouldn’t fall over lol
I have commented on some other video of yours for the travel agency but we really did enjoy using People Mover Travel for our Disney trip! We plan to use you all again in 2025 for a Disney/Universal trip. It was nice to ask a person direct questions and get detailed answers about parks, food, resorts, etc. It was all very easy and simple to go through the agency. Recommend!!
We super glue our tree star to the top and it flops over like the 'how the Grinch stole Christmas' tree. My husband has a 3D printer and he printed the same star from the movie, I love it! We even look for trees with a "big tail" as my 5 year old says 🤣
I use a small hai claw clip in a brown color to attach our star. I use it hold on the middle branch at the top. Hard to explain but it’s worked for over a decade
I usually just fold over a branch for the topper, making it a bit stronger. As for missing Gigi, did they think you forgot your kid or gave her to Santa? 😂 I figured she was with Blue Nana. Btw - you should save the bean liquid aka aquafaba. There are many ways to use it, but primarily as an egg white substitute in recipes; like it'll whip up like a meringue.
I put some tissue paper up inside the spiral part of the tree topper to fill it in. The spiral on ours is black, so I just use a bit of black tissue paper. I can put more tissue on just one side of the spiral if needed to better support the topper.
I am finally catching up on missed Vlogmas’…… 12.30am Sunday night/Monday morning before I return to my 8.30am job after the Christmas break….. thank you for sending me to bed 😅😅 I needed that nudge!!
You guys are precious ✨ For the tree topper, I remove the spirally thing from the bottom, and tie the topper directly to the top of the tree (folded over once).
I don't hear yurt when you say Europe fast... it sounds like yurp. From now on Europe will be known in my mind as Yurp 😂 also love the way y'all say crayon, with no "o"
All our artificial trees had one skinny branch sticking up for topper. Most branches have a wire, I just fold it in half and twist, now it’s perfect for my toppers.
We gave up on tree toppers! I printed out what our daughter wanted as a tree topper, had her color two, made a ring out of paper and glued the pieces on front and back of it. Boom, tree topper to slip over that’s light enough and with a personal touch.
I’m halfway through and accidentally sped up the video to go twice as fast. Cannot stop laughing at Tyler saying “success” super fast after going to the store 😂
Tree topper. My husband amputated the bottom base of it so it's just a star then thread tie-wraps through the back and made perfect loops that attach to the top of the tree. That sucker is so in place all season long. Granted our star is made of this kind of "spider web" material so it has space to thread through. But I freaking hate crooked tree toppers.
I love your Vlogmas Vlogs! It's like each one as you go through the month gets better, and I always wish I could just watch you all all day😊 When it comes to the tree topper, we always had to fold down all the branches at the very top and kind just shove it on there😂 Funny thing, me and my fiancé bought a new tree last year because our old one's light quit working, but when we put the new tree up it's touching the ceiling and we can't even fit a topper, lol 😂
I just got a tree topper at Target, had my husband use a bolt cutter to take off the bottom half, the coil was way too long! Then it fit the top of the tree...had to fold down a branch as well!
I was just having the topper struggle today. I must have a weak tree. It works with a "brace" (aka a pen) so I am thinking I will use a dowel. I may wrap it with some extra greenery or paint it green and run it down the back of the tree.
The shots of the beans with no context is my favorite. 😂😂😂
Yes! I was like MORE BEANS! 😂
Yes 😂😂😂😂😂
I cackled!!!!
I like that Tyler says “we’re looking at our kindles” instead of “we’re reading”. Hahahaha I just pictured them just staring at their kindles.
It’s so funny, after not seeing Gigi in the car I immediately was like she’s riding home with blue nana, duh!! 😂
Haha I thought the same thing!! Didn’t think twice 😂
I was wondering why the car seat was empty too!😂
Exactly 😊
Banana = blue Nana 😂
Why is Nana "Blue"?😅
It wouldn’t be vlogmas if the beans didn’t have their moment in the spotlight 😂😂
How to spot an OG vlogmas viewer 😂
I love love, love, love love the way Jessica talks to Pinocchio in the “Pinocchio voice” lol. I do the exact same thing with my pups. I have two and they have different voices when I talk to them or about them. 🤣🤣🤣
Who had “canned beans” on their vlogmas bingo card?! I’m anxiously waiting for “drywall!”
Spritz cookies and carpet cleaning, too
Giggling everytime Tyler says “Europe” now 😂
I can’t wait to see the “Yurt” videos lol. I love that you took a 2 syllable word and made it one😂
It's the total opposite of Southern, where people take a one syllable word and stretch it into two or three syllables. 😂
Gotta say, I love this community! The vlogmas comments are hilarious!
Thank you for the daily vlogs, I’m catching up while nursing my 1 week old munchkin 🥰🍼 keeping us both entertained 🎉
When Jess asked “do you love em?” And Tyler just dodged it 🤣 baby steps! Maybe by the end this year!
These 1/2 the vlog evening chats in the basement are gold
Yes! I’ll check where we are in the video and realize it’s only half way and think oh they must have some more content after they chat. But no! They are the best content!
listening to this vlog as I'm studying for my clinical anatomy final on the shoulder, elbow, wrist and hand and Jessica says "isn't it crazy how many parts of the body there are?" I simply could not agree more in this moment 😂
The Beans!! 🔦 🔦 😂
I thought it was an ad for a second. 😂
I came looking for this comment lol
Coffee chat in the car=
Carrfee chat
That was the funniest evening floor time 😆. Glad we cleared up the empty ghost coat!
Tree topper - we use twist ties! Like twist ties from the produce section… it works for us on a live tree, so it has to work on an artificial!
Omg this basement Reno is such a tease. I’ve been looking forward to it since vlogmas day 1!
Yes, thank you for making Tiny Tyler bigger!
I love you guys! Jessica looks like she was about to fall over. You guys always make me laugh! BTW we zip tie our topper to the tree.
Hahaaa! This made me think of Brick from the Middle. He loves fonts 😆🎄. Loving vlogmas!
Tree toppers with the spiral base can be corkscrewed into the top of the tree. You can even stretch them out a bit before hand then screw it on. The spiral will go around some of the upper branches and hold it in place.

Did I just see Tyler get artsy fartsy with…chickpeas??? 😂😂😂😂
“Crows feet” made me laugh out loud
Found tiny Tyler today 😊Raise your hand if you want to see more Pinnochio! 🐶 ✋
We use a green twist tie to secure our star to the tree.
This is brilliant!

THANK YOU FOR THE PINOCCHIO SIGHTING!! More please! ❤️❤️🐶🐶❤️❤️
I agree!! Sweetest dog ever!!!❤
watching this at 1:30pm and could totally turn over and fall asleep right now 😂
The best tree toppers have a claw clip! Just like a hair claw clip, lol. They are amazing!
For the tree topper we fold over one branch and stick the topper on and then if it doesn’t seem like it’s staying, we use a zip tie and just cut it off at the end of the season and do it again next year.
So many “that’s what she said” moments at the beginning of this vlog 😂
I was thinking the same thing! 😂😂
I am totally laughing at Tyler saying go to bed. Thanks for the reminder to set up the coffee for the morning. 🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄
Literally watching this at midnight…so I’ll do as I’m told and go right to sleep. Haha! Loving vlogmas so far, glad you both seem to be in good spirits. Wishing everyone a very happy and bright holiday season. ✨💖✨
The chick pea cans had me do a little holler 😂
Why, when you said, "Here's what's going on in the neck of your woods," it went to a commercial! Also I appreciated that line throughly!
For the tree topper. Pull the spiral out and then corkscrew it around the center of the tree
Tyler practicing saying Europe reminds me of Sally in a Charlie Brown Christmas practicing saying ‘hark!’ 😂😂
You can buy chopped onions in the freezer section. So much easier.
PIPE CLEANERS. That's my favorite way to secure a tree topper. Floral wire is also good and is easier to hide, but a little more difficult to work with. But pipe cleaners (the same color of the tree) are super helpful!

We use zip ties to attach the topper. Thanks for providing us so much joy during the holidays
We do that too. I fold the branch down first, then zip tie the topper.
Take a wooden spoon from the kitchen and zip tie the tree topper and the top together to it!! It is a game changer!!
Try clear fishing wire to weave through the spirals, if your topper has that design, to where you have 2 lines of wire coming out from inside the bottom of the topper. Then tie the wires around the center base of the tree where the topper is placed. Or attach ornament hooks to each wire and anchor to the closest branch on the right and left side of the topper.

Vlogmas keeps getting better and better 😊🎄

It was nice to ask a person direct questions and get detailed answers about parks, food, resorts, etc. It was all very easy and simple to go through the agency. Recommend!!
You can use a wooden spoon to help support the tree topper
We buy the tree toppers with the clip and also fold down the top branch to make it more sturdy
We super glue our tree star to the top and it flops over like the 'how the Grinch stole Christmas' tree. My husband has a 3D printer and he printed the same star from the movie, I love it! We even look for trees with a "big tail" as my 5 year old says 🤣
Tyler, can you do a video on the progress of your 2023 goals and your goals for 2024. Enjoyed when you have shared in the past - always inspiring!
I use pipe cleaners to hold the tree topper in place then put a big bow to cover.
Can I just say how much I appreciate your vlogmas? It has gotten me through many stressful decembers!
I take the top branch and fold it in half and then put the tree topper on
I use a small hai claw clip in a brown color to attach our star. I use it hold on the middle branch at the top. Hard to explain but it’s worked for over a decade
We zip tied our topper to our tree, and then we got an Angel and she’s fairly stable. Love the vlogs❤
Another vote for zip tying heavy ones!
Some trees have a specific post on the top underneath the tallest branch for a tree topper
We went to skip the bean ad only to realize it was still a part of the video 🤪😂
Tree topper problem, I run floral wire to secure it to the branch. Super cheap and already green so it blends in
I found Tyler it was kind of easy. I could watch you guys rambling for hours 😂😂😂
"It's still going to be hard, but it might just get a little bit bigger," said my husband. 😅
I usually just fold over a branch for the topper, making it a bit stronger. As for missing Gigi, did they think you forgot your kid or gave her to Santa? 😂 I figured she was with Blue Nana.

Magic schoolbus! So much nostalgia that was one of my favourite childhood things.
1:52 it’s so funny, because I was just thinking that they’ve been too easy this year to find the tiny Tylers in the thumbnail haha
I use zip ties to hold my topper on. Then just cut them off at the end of the year. Merry Christmas!
You guys are precious ✨ For the tree topper, I remove the spirally thing from the bottom, and tie the topper directly to the top of the tree (folded over once).
I don't hear yurt when you say Europe fast... it sounds like yurp. From now on Europe will be known in my mind as Yurp 😂 also love the way y'all say crayon, with no "o"
Cran. Lol.
I say Yurp too! 😂
All our artificial trees had one skinny branch sticking up for topper. Most branches have a wire, I just fold it in half and twist, now it’s perfect for my toppers.
Potatoes, patatos, yurt, yurp... we know what you mean, lol😂😋🥰
Bahaha the chick peas! I thought it was a commercial at first!!🤣🤣😂😂
We attached a dowel rod to the top of our tree and put our tree topper on that. Works pretty good! We are loving Vlogmas! 🎄❄️
Oh my Gosh.. I love the Memory tree... what a great name for it..
For the tree topper fold the very top branch in half or third and then place the spiral on top of that , you’re welcome
We gave up on tree toppers! I printed out what our daughter wanted as a tree topper, had her color two, made a ring out of paper and glued the pieces on front and back of it. Boom, tree topper to slip over that’s light enough and with a personal touch.
When you guys were talking about the ornaments I was secretly hoping you would start singing the sliver and gold song and you did!😂
I’m halfway through and accidentally sped up the video to go twice as fast. Cannot stop laughing at Tyler saying “success” super fast after going to the store 😂

Tiny Tyler merch idea. Mugs with tiny Tyler at the very bottom. Drink all your coffee then there is tiny Tyler. 😂
I just got a tree topper at Target, had my husband use a bolt cutter to take off the bottom half, the coil was way too long! Then it fit the top of the tree...had to fold down a branch as well!
Green or white floral wire for your tree topper :) blends in and secure
I’ve used twist ties to attach the tree topper.
Agghh I thought the exact same thing about Gigi and the car seat!😂😂😂 I was like did they leave Gigi with Santa??😅
Yes!!! My favorite part of December!!!!!❤
I was just having the topper struggle today. I must have a weak tree. It works with a "brace" (aka a pen) so I am thinking I will use a dowel. I may wrap it with some extra greenery or paint it green and run it down the back of the tree.
dont 4get the europe vids tyler🤣 still reminding you after each vlogmas i watch 🎄🎅🏼🎥🤪
Not feeling good BUT had to watch y’all. You two make me happy 😊
My family just lets the topper be floppy ✨🎄
Loving vlogmas as usual!! Also, I'm so happy to see your new cooking website! The link to the vodka sauce isn't working!
Really hoping to see 'what we read' vlog at the end of this month!!!
Yes you wrap the top branch around the springy base of the topper! They are so annoying to put on🙃
Those tree toppers you screw down over the top. As you twist it down onto the tree gets intertwined in the topper.
It’s so funny how Tyler said that he can turn around and lay down and fall asleep right away, is that all husbands? My husband does the same 🤣
My hubs ....asleep in two minutes. Me, chronic insomnia 😂
We put the tree topper on the top of the pole in the middle of the tree
Crowsfeet had me on the floor lol!
Tyler's in the shopping basket! 😂
I am truly embarrassed on how long that one took me today 😂
