how nice🎉
I can relate to the emotions of Cristhegirl when it comes to the fact you had parents that kept records of your childhood. It is really special.
Thank you for watching my friend
❤
Those home videos are so priceless and hits home.
I have to stop watching Chris the Girl because she made me cry every time she cries, which is a lot, lol!!! I’m soooo happy for you Tampa Jay!
This really got me emotional and reminded me so much of my childhood. My parents recorded EVERYTHING, and they still have the stacks of VHS tapes that we rewatch all the time. I am so thankful for them. Creating traditions and memories is what life’s about, and now you and Cris can create your own. Beautiful video ❤
Thank you so much for sharing that! I’m happy you enjoyed the video. Thank you! Happy Holidays! much ahead
@@TampaJay thank you and same to you!
That's some great Christmas memories to treasure Jay, thanks for sharing❤ Got me teary-eyed.
hi y'all i am berry greatful you share these heartfelt moments with us...I cried when Cris started crying 🎄💚
You're home videos show how awesome you and your wonderful family are
You’re keeping your dad’s memory alive by vlogging. He was ahead of his time. 🥲 lots of love to you both! ❤
Thank you my friend!
This video made me want to hug you both. The holidays bring up a lot of love and sometimes a lot of pain. I’m glad you two have each other and you’re making memories together ❤ Thanks for bringing us along. Enjoy that fresh Christmas tree smell. It’s one of my favorites 🎄
Beautiful tree and video. Thank you for sharing. ❣️🎄
Awesome you still have those VHS tapes. Some great memories for sure!😊 Thank you for sharing and now you have some of it on TH-cam for posterity ❤
I'm so happy to see this. To care about your families past and framing letters, etc...the whole thing. It's wonderful to see younger people actually care about their own families history.
I'm a senior and i feel like family history is being forgotten. The traditions made by each family. It is important to keep their memories alive.
Thank you for sharing all of this and christmas tree hunting.
You picked a beautiful one...
No pun intended but I just gotta' say it-----
"It's a beaut' Clark" lol 😉🤣
Happy Christmas
Oh, on Charles Dickens...I, too, am a huge Dickens fan. I was able to meet his Great-Great Grandson, Christopher Dickens back in the mid 90s in South Bend, Indiana. Charles was a marvelous writer, as is Edgar Allan Poe.
Thanks Jay! I use to go with my Dad to a tree farm to our Christmas tree. He would get them so afterwards he could plant the tree in the backyard. Lots of fun. Sorry the light show was closed.
Merry Christmas to you both 🙂
It's a beautiful tree! I hope there was no squirrels in it! That's so cool you got to keep your football helmet!
Great time! I love you!😘
I love you too :)
What a lovely video thanks for sharing your traditions with us ❤ love the videos from both you and Chris but together you really are special x

🦇🎄🦇👏👏👏
You two Guy's, are the most genuine, lovely, people to vlogg on TH-cam, the emotions as you watched your VHS of Xmas past, flamingoooooooooooooooooo ss
DAMN get down with your rad construction paper bows! That is so wonderful:)
I recorded every moment for my three loves. The Best thing that ever happened to me!! Sweet memories. We are getting our tree next weekend. We always do a real tree. Wish us luck! One year I let my 14 get it with her dad and not me. It was a sad , sad tree. She was fired and now I will always now go too. Lol!
Wow, makes me appreciate the 70 bucks I spend at Lowes for our tree every year.
That’s a great investment
@TampaJay I don't know if you guys dig the fake trees, but last year we hit up the after Xmas clearance and got a handful of the 3-7 foot prelit trees at Walmart and they were 90% off.
Happy Holidays tj and ctg.
Festival of lights at Steven Foster's in White Springs Fl is nice, and Spirit of the Suwanee in LiveOak has nice lights as well.
Long ago I worked for a tree lot in Houston . Pope Tree Lot. Worst X-Mas experience. The owner was a real jerk. The trees came out of NC. Cool video guys. Happy holidays
Cool stuff! Memories cherished
Tree looks great, a little full alot of sap🎄
Awe, Cris, you got me crying happy tears for Jay and his memories.
Hi Jay and Cris, the Christmas spirit is in the air. Always a fun time going on adventures with you. Love going along for the ride😊
Thank you Mike! We appreciate you so much
@@TampaJaySame here buddy. Can't wait to see the next video. You're always awesome. 😊❤
Shake hands with rainy days. I can't remember when the sun was shining here last time. @3:50 Holy dino! A JP Ford!!!!!!!!!! Good choice 🎄
Love your tree tradition! Love Dade City! ❤ We can’t make the stroll on the 9th- will you and Crista Girl go? will the street be decorated just as pretty on the next weekend?🎄 We’ll be watching to see everywhere you find nearby to see pretty lights and anything Christmas. Sorry your light show got cancelled. You’ll get there!🎄
certainly a tradition to view these vids during this time of year...and boy howdy where did it go?
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😍😍😍😍😍
Zephyrhills Sonny’s will always be the best one!
I don’t remember so much rain in November either in Florida. I’m in Plant City and they are lighting up the downtown lights tonight (thurs) ☺️
It’s been crazy. Thanks for the news. I figured it was kind of early.
That's really cool Jay. A Christmas tree farm in Florida !
we usually have 4 my Roombox living room dining room and Porch
TJ! You're supposed to be singing " Ohh I am a lumberjack" While you were carrying the tree
Did you intentionally wear your lumberjack shirt Jay? Lol! ❤ It!
Next time ya'll slide up here to GA stop at a Shane's Rib Shack...😋...I just watched the Night of Lights vid... didn't know there was a Mellow Mushroom in St. Augustine..also started here in GA. I have a brother who is a XMas eve baby too..😊
@Tampajay just a piece of advice, if you haven't already. Preserve those videos! Go to any camera/video shop and they should be able to Preserve them to modern tech. My parents never took pictures or videos, so I have very little photographic memories of our family growing up. I would just absolutely hate to see you lose those. Love and peace to both of you (and Bella 🙂).
Thank you my friend. I appreciate that. I have actually began converting to MP4. I purchased a program wich I run thru my laptop and vcr. Precious stuff man. Thanks for watching appreciate you :)
Awesome that your dad recorded those precious family memories for you to always enjoy...I can tell you were as close to your dad as I was to mine..I was blessed to be able to come back home and care for him for 7 years and was a joy to get him to 100. Treasure each and every memory as I do. Awesome content as always my friends.. looking forward to seeing your next adventure.😎🐊🇺🇸😇🌲⛄🌨️🎅🤶🛷🦌
Good Morning Tampa Jay....
Jay, you amaze me at times. You went to the Yearling restaurant. I was there many years ago with my folks. Then you went to the authors house where she lived and then you went to where she was killed, but you did not say anything about that. You went to the Ripleys Hotel in St. Augustine. Up on the third floor you went passed the room with the bath tub and the blind haired female was standing, but then you went to the next window and the blind haired girl was gone. Before Ripley bought the building it was a hotel and a small restaurant. The author of the Yearling was on penthouse floor which is the fourth floor. That floor is just for storage now. When it was a hotel there was a fire. Only two people died in it. The Yearling author and a girl named Emily. Emily put herself into the bathtub and covered herself with wet towels so she would not burn alive, instead she died from the smoke and your author died from smoke and was kinda burned up. Now if you see Emily inside Ripleys and you tell the staff what she was wearing before the fire, they will mark you down in the E book. A lot of people seem her standing in front of the third floor windows. And some people have seen her outside the main entrance where it was back in the day when it was a hotel. Myself I worked there after a bad hurricane and they needed armed security there because the alarms were turned off. I have seen Emily alot of times while working there. But I just wanted to tell you that about the Ripley building. Also, the the log cabin made from a tree trunk is haunted also. Sometimes at night you can see smoke coming out of the chimney. And a lot of people have heard music coming from inside the building at night, but the building is closed. St. Augustine is a completely different town at night. When I worked there I worked from 1800 to 0600. 12 hour shifts. I saw Emily the first time coming down the steps in the main room where you came in. Then I saw here coming out to the front where the wooden rocking chairs are at. Yes, I even heard the music once. But I'm not scared of the spirits. In fact I talk to them. Like you do when you leaves cemitary.
Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings died of a cerebral hemorrhage. Not in the fire you are referring to. The fire you are referring to happened Sometime after Marjorie and her Husband converted the building that was once their home into a Hotel. Which is now the Ripley,s Museum. Two women did die in a fire there when it was a Hotel but not Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings.
Jay, This video makes me want to buy you a chainsaw for Christmas...Awesome home movies of your childhood at Christmas time. Sonny's BBQ looked delicious. And thanks again for bringing us along for the ride.
Thank you for sharing this with us...Christmas is almost here..wow.
Time is going by so fast...
I was hoping to see the Beautiful Decoration and lights display..
Next time...lol
Next time my friend thank you so much for watching. :)
first cold fronts of
the year now third week of December
so cute
This is the first video that I have noticed Cris has a Spooky White strand of hair.
Good morning from Freezing Gatlinburg' TN Smoky Mountains Mr Jay 🌄🌲🐻🏞️
Thanks for sharing, I’m close to Dade city and did not know this place existed 😂 🎄 I know you’re on a Sonny’s quest, but Dade city has so many great restaurants, you guys would’ve really enjoyed Kafe Kokopelli, and even Zephyrhills is getting their fair share of good little restaurants, one of the best Mexican restaurants is in San Antonio called Pancho Villas - a complete hole in the wall, but good! Cris would like Country Fresh Cafe in Zephyrhills for some non-meat options!
I’ve been to the Kafe Kokopelli a few times! The Caprese and ahi tuna is some of my faves. Also, Panchos and the Green Door. All off camera. We were short on time (thought we were) or we would have. You have some great spots near you. Love Dade ! Thank you for watching my friend!
I am gonna check out Country Fresh thank you Amy
@@TampaJay actually, it’s Fresh Country Café, I got it reversed 😆 and they definitely have plenty of meat heavy food, but I think they would have some good veggie/non-meat options for her as well!
@@DisAmy33 haha good deal. That’s right up our alley, feel like we passed by it yesterday. We drove thru downtown Zypher after Sonny’s (off camera) town looks cool!
@@TampaJay zephyrhills does have a little downtown area as well, definitely some cool shops and good restaurants buried here and there it’s just becoming a lot more populated than it used to be, so it’s becoming more diverse and with some interesting new places! Cris would totally dig the girls at Nail Mavens & Enchanted Triple Moon Metaphysical store in the same plaza!
Thanks for sharing this time of year with you and Cris. ❤️both of you.🙂
GOOD MORNING Krista Girl.....
It's not going in our yard russ It's going in our living room 🎄
As you embark on your statewide Sonny's BBQ adventure should kick it off in Gainesville at the Original Sonny's 😎 as a side note I actually got to meet Sonny Tillman at a Gator Basketball game he was there to promote the "Sonny's Halftime Shoot out" by making 3 shots you won a car. He is not only a nice man but makes awesome BBQ 😎🇺🇸😇
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊
That's crazy I live half a mile from there in Zephyrhills I would love to meet you guys darn it. Maybe next year, I can't believe i'm saying that 2024. Tell your fiance. I love her green sweater.
I would definitely like to try the Sonny’s challenge. We need one in Illinois
It’s a good quick bbq stop
@@TampaJay when we visit family in Ocala we always stop a few times. One of the best bbq’s I’ve had.
and you shouldnt need a stepladder to put the topper on and all my trees are fake but as much as i like pine scent i'd be sneezing through the entire month of december
Stupid question because I've never had a real tree. So you have to buy a new tree stand every yr the stands are not adjustable to fit different trees ??
Most tree stands are universal! These trees in this video however have a hole drilled in the bottom of them to fit that specific stand.
At Least you didnt go full Griswold And forget the Saw..😂
(Booooooooowwwwlllllllhhh) 😂
We woke up to 2+" of Snow yesterday; here in IL (Sunday) 😅✌️
Oh my golly ! That’s a lot of snow
@TampaJay
Oh, Yeah.. it's a Wintery 28° 🥶
Thanks, Again for All the Adventures that You and Cris share ✌️
Chainsaw......RUN! That got me. Also...Cris I detected a wave of emotion when you were watching Jay's home movie. I felt that, I am glad you two grand souls have each other. I am blessed as well with a girl with a giant heart.
Please tell me where Cris got that shirt! It is adorable
Universal Studious Florida last Christms season! Thank you
What was the shaking for ? Bugs ?
She’s a butte Clark!
$150 😳 Ouch. But nothing beats a real tree. I'm totally in the Christmas spirit this year. Can't wait to see it all decorated 🎄🎅🤶
I thought $40-$50 in the 80s was alot to pay. My Dad was a member of the Jaycees (Jr. Chamber Commerce) years ago and my brother and I were among the boys that were 'volunteered' as helpers.
@@gilbertgranby9339❤
me with chris unable to speak and clutching hands painfully tight... cause stuff.
It's not a Christmas tree without a squirrel! 🎄🐿️
