Can we give a special round of applause to Allie? She goes out of her way to be thoughtful, inclusive, respectful and considerate of her in-laws. She sets the tone for keeping the family close.
I love you Aly Thanks for your hard work. I a 76 yr old Great Grandmother who watches yall every day. Native Texan Love you guys! Congrats on your heavenly Christmas surprise. Happy New Year 2023
I don't know if you realize how much you affect your viewers with this kind of video. I never had a Family growing up, even being one of 6 that shared themselves like your family does. The joy you bring to us, fills our hearts with all those feelings the holidays were meant to be. Thank You for my Christmas Cheer.
Grandma is so right at 12:44 mins. „This is the kind of stuff you can‘t buy“. That is absolutely true and should never be forgotten. This episode is really one of the best ones 👍🏻 Thank you and your family to let us take part of your x-mas surprise celebrations. All the best for 2023 🍀
That was the sweetest thing Trent's grandma said, "these are the things that you can't buy at a department store ". That is so true. Family means so much as we get older. What a wonderful gift! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
Watching Gloria’s face ( and Jill) when they saw the “Suprise “ was so heartwarming and wonderful. Trent& Allie you pulled off a great one! It was warm wonderful and perfect! Gets no better than this. Family togetherness.
In all the years I have been watching this channel.. this video takes the cake. Bringing one’s family together is the greatest gift of all. Well done. Thanks for filling 2022 with great content when I needed it the most. 🎄❤️
Kudos to Trennt's grandparents. It isn't easy to have a houseful of guests at any age, let alone in your twilight years. It is so heartwarming to see that their house is still the hub for this family.
@@juanitasellshouses My very thought. We have two girls that live 4.5 hours away from us in different directions, so our place is home base to them, the children and of course their pets. Departure days are always rushed due to the long travel for them, so yes, clean-up is left behind at our request so they can get home in a timely fashion. God bless my wife for all of the behind the scene things that she does to keep the family together.
I can’t love this enough!!! I turned 70 in November and believe me, as I was decorating my trees and wrapping presents, the thought that I don’t have that many left entered my mind. Savor every second! I’m so glad you have these memories on video because you never know what the next year will bring and who may no longer be here. God has blessed you abundantly! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! PS Leo is the star ⭐️
This is the last year I can say that I am in my seventies. Come August, I have to pass on into the next decade! My wife passed away from brain cancer back in 2014, therefore I live in our house out in the woods, alone. I am glad that I am able to do this alone, but who knows how much longer I will be able to do so! I love the way Trent took people out to his truck too. get their gift and then said that the others must have taken it inside the house and they walk into the house FULL of family!! I just love that scene even though it is repeated!!
Happy Birthday!! I turned 60 in November too! Is it weird to you as well thinking 70!! Or me 60!! Anyway Happy Holidays to you and a better, healthy New Year. Best Wishes
Watching Leo's interaction with Lika brought back a memory I would like to share. Dogs loved my dad, and he loved them. We always had rescues passing through, and one particular one stands out. The dog came to us at night, an Old English Sheepdog, with hair so matted we couldn't even tell the sex. My mom was trying to remove some mats to give the dog relief, but her clippers kept jamming. The next morning revealed the extent of neglect this dog had suffered. She had one inch thorns embedded in her skin, so my mom had her vetted and groomed. The vet noticed at the time that she must have recently lost a litter due to her malnourishment. We got her back home to rehab until we found her forever home, and five days later she gave birth to 6 healthy lab mix pups! Unexpected surprise, as this momma dog had been in really bad shape. We did find homes for all, including momma dog, which is the sweetest part of the story. My mom wanted this special sweet creature to go to the perfect home, and she rejected quite a few (she had really great intuition). The family that got to take her home, was the one that brought their 3 or 4 year old child. To water our dogs, we used a "Lick It" spigot. When the dog walked over and started licking, the kid followed suit. The parent's reaction 100% sold my mom. Instead of being grossed out by their kid drinking with the dog, they looked at each other and said they would have to get one of those! And my folks were happy to tell them where they could get one. Thanks for the memory trigger, now I'll get back to the video.
Around the world, people joined me in tears as Trent closed his eyes as he hugged Leslie and Russell, his love for them so evident. Traveling back to Utah, seeing it go smoothly and getting them home. I simply adore Trent's grandparents, how lucky they are to have created a legacy of love, warmth and family. Then when Gloria (who looks AMAZING) came in to see her daughter and eldest grandkids it was what tipped my heart to overflowing and made my tears breakthrough. Jilly, your response was perfect seeing the hug you shared with your sister was the perfect example of sibling love let's not forget Allie & Trent's hugs on everyone too. I haven't even made it to breakfast and I'm taking a break to thank you once again for showing me the pleasure of what a big loving family can be like. I hope that we go back to larger families and learn once again to rely on family when love, honesty and caring is needed incredible. May God bless you and keep you, Baruch Hashem
You can tell by all the family photos scattered around grandma and grandpas house how much love this family has for each other. How lucky your family is.. ❤
Wow! Can I just say this is my favorite video ever??? Just watching your entire family’s reactions to everything, starting with Leslie’s and Russell’s goodby hugs, seeing how appreciative your sister and her family were to being flown out for the Christmas surprise, your grandparent’s reaction to seeing everyone along with Grandma’s words of wisdom for us all, including Frank and Lika in the Christmas festivities, your mother’s reaction to unexpectedly seeing her daughter and grandchildren from Wisconsin, Jill’s reaction to seeing her sister and nieces and nephews, little Leo loving and being loved by everyone, Allie beaming from ear to ear with tears in her eyes, to Trent wiping the tears that flowed so freely, both knowing the wonderful gift they had given to the entire family. Just typing this is making me cry. I felt like I was part of everything while the tears and sobs just poured out of me. This is what Christmas is… seeing the pure love of Christ flowing so freely amongst this family. Thank you for including us in such a way that we all felt the joy you were experiencing as a family. As if all of these feel good feelings weren’t enough, you took the time to drop off a much loved and appreciated Christmas gift to our beloved Brandon, and followed that up with helping the family of vacationers so that they might be able to enjoy their Christmas. You two are just AMAZING!!! I’m so glad that you included all of these things on your video. It’s something the family members can watch over and over to re-live the excitement, love, and joy this Christmas brought. We love you both, along with Joel, Leo, Brandon, Frank, Lika, and the rest of the family members. Wishing you all a very Happy, Healthy, Joyful, and Prosperous New Year!!!
This is exactly what Christmas is all about.… God so loved the world that he gave his only son. What a gift. So glad to see you spreading the love. Merry Christmas and happy new year Trent, Allie and Leo.
Aww I loved this entire episode from seeing Allie’s parents, to Trent’s grandparents to the joy on Trent’s mom face seeing her daughter & grandkids. I even enjoyed watching you help the strangers up the hill. Great episode. Happy New Year Trent, Allie, Leo, Frank & Lika ❤
I cried my eyes out when Trent's Mom walked into that kitchen and saw her daughter and grandkids. That was truly priceless!! Blessings to you both and your entire family.
Trent and Allie...You are the best! Bringing the whole family together and surprising everyone was just perfect. I'm a grown man and you brought tears to my eyes, especially when your mom walked in and saw your sister and grandkids. There was not a better present that you could have given your family! Happy New Year to all!
This was the best video for 2022. I loved (and cried) when Trents mom saw her daughter. That was priceless. Leo was precious and loved the way he was hugging Grandma. He was a little social butterfly.
This video is one that I will come back to time and time again. I wasn’t really feeling the spirit of Christmas this year, and then I watched Trent’s beautiful grandmother react, and the tears just started rolling out of my eyes. I can’t even type this without tearing up. This heartfelt video was a true labor of love. What a beautiful family. What a wonderful Christmas and New Year’s gift to us all. Thank you Trent and Allie, and thank you to your beautiful extended family for letting us all feel the love this holiday season.
Ditto every word! Their gathering at Xmas 2022 gave us warm feelings and huge gladness. Inspires us that, there is, much more greatness to evolve. Allie is the treasure. Leo has teeth & big smiles 😃 So happy for all.
Trent & Allie {as you both are CLEARLY aware} YOU are so BLESSED to have such a BEAUTIFUL, LOVING, PRECIOUS Family❣️ May God BLESS you ALL in 2023❣️ 😊Really enjoy your videos❣️
Thanks. A 57 year old dutchman (Netherlands) gets tears in his eyes. The love you show for grandpa en grandma is priceless. Thanks and have a good 2023. Grtngs Edwin!
Now for your Moms' birthday, give her a frame photo of that surprised reaction, that was wonderful! :) This was a fun episode, thank you and your family for sharing it all.
I'm sorry for your loss and grateful that you could share in these genuine loving family memories. Let your memories keep you warm too. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you as I'm sure your mother would want for you. 🎄❤️🎄❤️🎄❤️🎄🎉🥳🎊🥳🎉🥳🎊
It is said that a sign of a good storyteller is the ability to engage and make one’s audience connect emotionally. As I spent much of this video crying, smiling and laughing, I can positively say you are incredible story tellers! Thank you for sharing! I look forward to your videos every Monday and Friday! May 2023 be healthy, happy and prosperous!
I lost my dad 2 days before Christmas this year . Allie talking about appreciating every moment really struck home. Merry Christmas Trent and Allie, can't wait to see what 2023 brings for your little family.
I’m so sorry for your Loss!! It’s never easy losing a parent no matter your age or the circumstances!! Sending love and prayers your way. Wishing you beautiful memories and laughter when you think of your dad. 🤗
Hi Jasmine, my sincerest sympathies for your loss. I understand how you're feeling, i lost my dad 2 days before xmas in 2017 and i lost my mum in feb of 2022... I can remember last christmas (21) hugging her tight just in case (lesson learned after loosing my dad) and im so glad i did. Use all the memories you have to keep you warm and safe, they are the blanket balm that will help you get through it. Talk about them often to all your family, (if you are able too) it will keep him alive for you. Nothing can help with the hurt your feeling but it CAN help with the healing. Take care xx
Trent, Allie and Leo. This was my very favorite video you have done. Thank you for sharing the love of your family with us for the celebration of Christ’s birthday. ❤
Oh my gosh, my mama heart so understands the excitement and love that went into those tight hugs upon greeting her kids and grands. I miss my own grown kids and grandkids on holidays. I am so happy for you all.
What an amazing Christmas Day surprise for your Mom, Sisters and Grandparents! Their reactions when they were surprised were priceless and very amazing. Absolutely well done Trent, Allie, Leo priceless memories have been made
This kind of magical surprise is what life is all about! We did this one Thanksgiving & walked into my parent's house & they thought we were 725 miles away. There's nothing like pulling off a surprise that brings family together for a holiday! Thanks Trent & Allie for including us in your special Christmas. ❤🎄
I’m not one to comment on videos but I have to say that sharing your family Christmas experience was awesome. I was smiling the whole time. Thank you for being vulnerable. It is a reminder that there is nothing better than family. Trent, your grandmother said it best. There is no gift in any store that can compare. God bless you guys. Be well.
I have been “with “ you since before you headed south to the most interesting travel into South America. I loved the engagement video and surprising Trent’s Grandma for a wedding. Leo’s 9 months in the womb and birth. Giving Brandon the truck was So Cool! But meeting family members and sharing adventures with you all has really enriched my life. It has been a great opportunity to live in snowy Utah and stay comfortably here in Texas! I loved every second of this episode! I feel I know all the siblings and Gloria and her parents! Thank you for a beautifully edited Christmas story! I will continue to watch because it is so very interesting! Happy Birthday, Trent! Thank you for sharing your lives with us! You are loved in the broadest sense of the word! Thanks again!
You have lifted us up with you generosity and your gift of surprise. So happy you were able to have the long overdue family Christmas. May God continue to bless you in 2023 and each day as it comes!
This was my favorite episode. There is no gift greater under the tree than spending time with loved ones. You are a wonderful brother for providing that for your family. The memories made will last a lifetime. It was wonderful to see your grandparents in good health. Your viewers will be impacted by any changes to their health as we've grown to love them and will treasure their appearances in the meantime. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you all. Looking forward to what adventures you will bring us on in 2023.
I didn't just enjoy this video, I LOVED this video! I love it when you guys show us time spent with family. It's so precious to witness. And what was nice is that the video started with time spent with Allie's family and ended with time spent with Trent's. You guys are truly there for each other, so much that the other person's family becomes your own family. I love that you take us with you for the holidays and family events. Many TH-camrs don't. Thanks so much for sharing so much of yourselves. Hope 2023 treats you guys well.
What an amazing video!! You both are just such caring, kind, loving, sincere, special people, and what you guys did for the vactioners pushing their rental up that hill was so kind, and thoughtful. We need more people like Trent and Allie in this world, we sure do. And Trent, your mum's face was so priceless, and your sisters too. I'm sure everyone watching shed a few tears, who wouldn't. Thank you again for sharing a very special Christmas with us all. Love to your grandparents, and not ever forgetting Joel!! Happy New Year to you both, and your wonderful family. Paula ❤🙏
Like everyone else I loved this video. One of my favorite moments though was seeing the love between Allie's parents and Trent, especially Allie's dad. I thought how much Trent must appreciate having a dad now after growing up without one.
This was such an amazing video ❤️ My family went to crap after my mom died so seeing your guys family & that's exactly how my family used to be warms my heart! Please everyone, enjoy everyday because it can change overnight & it's never the same unfortunately... I hope everyone had a great Christmas & Happy New year ❤️
I am heartbroken to hear about your mom. I am so very sorry. . I know too how it feels and it never goes away; but we learn to cope with it. You will always miss her. Again, I am very sorry for your loss!!
I so enjoy watching this channel . Trent and Allie do such a wonderful job making us feel like friends. Watching Leo with his great grandma is just amazing😍 Trent and Alli have such a love for family and to get his sister and her family home for Christmas is like his grandma said, priceless.
When you said about you had been filming your 'real Christmas', you hit the nail on the head. The appeal of your channel is very much that you come across as real and not staged like some channels are. It's a pleasure to watch your adventures and happenings. All good wishes for 2023 to the 3 of you plus the 2 pooches, of course! Take care 🙂. Love from the UK.
Massive props to whoever edited this video, I was hanging on at every turn excited to see all of the family members from every side of the family and you all have a big combined family! This video had everything, including Brandon! Happy New Year!
Trent and Allie your generosity and love for your family is epic. I love your videos that contain your grandparents and parents. This is my favorite video. Both of you have awesome families. I enjoyed the reaction of Trent’s mom when she saw her daughter and grandchildren.
What an amazing family Christmas gift!!!!! I was so overwhelmed and full of tears for you. I can only imagine how you all felt. Thank You for the surprise!!!!!
Every time you share Grama, I cry. You are all truly blessed to have her in your lives!! This episode brought all the feels! Your mom is so lucky to have you for a family!! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to one of my favorite families!!
Leo is so comfy laying on grandmas lap. You gave your family the most incredible gift! I was bawling my eyes out when your mom saw them. Happy New Year!
I came home and didn't tell my mom I was coming and surprised her and her front door with my sister and the joy and surprise it makes it all worth it. I'm so glad you were able to give this gift to your mom and your grandparents and your sister in your whole family! Y'all got me crying.
well, I have been smiling from ear to ear for the entire 38 minutes and 23 seconds!! I feel like I was there and I hugged every one of you all!! Happy New Year by now!! Love from Michigan!
I’m so glad that Allies parents are like parents to Trent too. Looks like Trent and Russell have a great friendship and mutual respect for one another. Oh my gosh, I was crying when Trent’s Mom went back into the house and saw her big “surprise”. It was PRICELESS!
Loved this so much! Thank you for spending some of your Christmas working on getting a video out to us! This video shows the true Trent and Allie from helping the vacationers get their car up the hill, to seeing your best friend and work partner, to the whole experience of surprising your Mom and grandparents! And I so love seeing Allie's Mom and Dad and their big smiles and love of Leo!
Trent your grandma is an absolute treasure. I cry whenever I hear her voice. She reminds me of my grams. I think I’m subscribed for your sweet grandparents ❤
I love how your grandpa shows up in a tie what a pure gentleman and Allie you’re right you don’t know how much time you have left with the grandparents. ❣️
We did something similar many years ago. We surprised my mother-in-law who was being treated for breast cancer. My husband, kids and I flew to Reno on Christmas Eve, rented a car to drive to Pioneer California Christmas morning. We had to go over the Sierra Nevada mountains to get to her house. She was totally blown away. A few days later we had to drive back over the mountains and they were closing highway 88 behind us. Great memories!
Can we give a special round of applause to Allie? She goes out of her way to be thoughtful, inclusive, respectful and considerate of her in-laws. She sets the tone for keeping the family close.
She truly is such a special person, her parents raised her well!!
What a great surprise that’s why I love you all so
Much
I love you Aly Thanks for your hard work. I a 76 yr old Great Grandmother who watches yall every day. Native Texan Love you guys! Congrats on your heavenly Christmas surprise. Happy New Year 2023
More Allie in the videos!
👏👏👏👏
I don't know if you realize how much you affect your viewers with this kind of video. I never had a Family growing up, even being one of 6 that shared themselves like your family does. The joy you bring to us, fills our hearts with all those feelings the holidays were meant to be. Thank You for my Christmas Cheer.
As grandma rightly said … something one can’t buy for nothing in the world 💚💚💚
The most precious gift from God 🥰👑😎✝️🥳🌹💗
I love that Leo sits quietly in his great grandmother's lap just soaking up the love. What a sweet picture.
Grandma is so right at 12:44 mins. „This is the kind of stuff you can‘t buy“. That is absolutely true and should never be forgotten.
This episode is really one of the best ones 👍🏻 Thank you and your family to let us take part of your x-mas surprise celebrations.
All the best for 2023 🍀
Well someone did buy the plane tickets, lol
Wisdom!
Thnx for sharing such good feelings
That was the sweetest thing Trent's grandma said, "these are the things that you can't buy at a department store ". That is so true. Family means so much as we get older. What a wonderful gift! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
Watching Gloria’s face ( and Jill) when they saw the “Suprise “ was so heartwarming and wonderful. Trent& Allie you pulled off a great one! It was warm wonderful and perfect! Gets no better than this. Family togetherness.
In all the years I have been watching this channel.. this video takes the cake. Bringing one’s family together is the greatest gift of all. Well done. Thanks for filling 2022 with great content when I needed it the most. 🎄❤️

You are ALL AMAZING...I lived in salt lake 2015-2019..Then...FT NOMAD
This is what the season is about, family and love.
🎄♥️🎄I don’t think I’ve ever seen great grandma at a loss of words- She’s always so adorable with her quick wit.
What a lovely & loving family. 🎄♥️🎄
Your mum's reaction was absolutely PRICELESS! Your mum is awesome 🙂
Grandma said it best "this is so wonderful". ❤❤
Omg - tears immediately sprang in my eyes when Trent’s mom screamed. Beautiful. ❤
This is the most uplifting video I have watched over the festive period. I’m crying buckets! Your mums response was great!
I like your grandpa taking his own pictures 📸 with his camera he's so sweet ❤
I had to blink back tears just like Trent when his mom saw her surprise. How wonderful!
Kudos to Trennt's grandparents. It isn't easy to have a houseful of guests at any age, let alone in your twilight years. It is so heartwarming to see that their house is still the hub for this family.
My husband said, "I hope they didn't leave that house for Grandma to clean up!"

As a mom, I have to say that this is the best gift ever!!!!! Way to go Trent and Allie, you knocked this one out of the ballpark.
Amen!

I also turned 70 in November, and I couldn't have said this any better. Keep on, Jena!
I felt the same this year as I also turned 70 , I am going to try and savor every minute of everyday!!
This is the last year I can say that I am in my seventies. Come August, I have to pass on into the next decade!

Nothing better than to be blessed with family.
Grandma's reaction was it for me! When you're that age you know what the best Christmas gift is... Happy new year everyone ✌🏽
Around the world, people joined me in tears as Trent closed his eyes as he hugged Leslie and Russell, his love for them so evident.

Leo sleeping on Allie’s lap on the airplane is the best photo so far in 2023!! Adorable!
but i wanted to touch his chin and close his mouth lest he become a mouth-breather !!! eeee look that up - no no
Kindness and such love for family is priceless. Kudos to Trent and Allie for these memories
I think we all shed happy tears on that one.

Aww I loved this entire episode from seeing Allie’s parents, to Trent’s grandparents to the joy on Trent’s mom face seeing her daughter & grandkids. I even enjoyed watching you help the strangers up the hill. Great episode. Happy New Year Trent, Allie, Leo, Frank & Lika ❤
Both Allie's and Trent's families are so awesome. I love every member. But for me, the stars will always be Trent's Grandma and Grandpa! : )
I cried my eyes out when Trent's Mom walked into that kitchen and saw her daughter and grandkids. That was truly priceless!! Blessings to you both and your entire family.
Trent and Allie...You are the best! Bringing the whole family together and surprising everyone was just perfect. I'm a grown man and you brought tears to my eyes, especially when your mom walked in and saw your sister and grandkids. There was not a better present that you could have given your family! Happy New Year to all!
As a mother of grown children who are bit scattered around myself, there is NO BETTER GIFT THAN HAVING YOUR FAMILY ALL TOGETHER UNDER ONE ROOF!💕💕💕💕💕💕
I love seeing Grandma and Grandpa!!
This was the best video for 2022. I loved (and cried) when Trents mom saw her daughter. That was priceless. Leo was precious and loved the way he was hugging Grandma. He was a little social butterfly.

I'm still crying...such an inspirational Christmas celebration!
Ditto every word!
Their gathering at Xmas 2022 gave us warm feelings and huge gladness. Inspires us that, there is, much more greatness to evolve.
Allie is the treasure.
Leo has teeth & big smiles 😃
So happy for all.
Leo with Trent’s grandmother is just the sweetest thing ever ❤
I loved it so much when Trent said “this is our authentic Christmas that we are sharing with you guys…” ❤
Trent & Allie {as you both are CLEARLY aware} YOU are so BLESSED to have such a BEAUTIFUL, LOVING, PRECIOUS Family❣️ May God BLESS you ALL in 2023❣️ 😊Really enjoy your videos❣️
Thanks. A 57 year old dutchman (Netherlands) gets tears in his eyes. The love you show for grandpa en grandma is priceless. Thanks and have a good 2023. Grtngs Edwin!
Trent’s grandparents get me every time, how lucky to have such a loving relationship with them. I had to pause the video to stop sobbing 😂😢
Update I’m sobbing again. I can’t believe Trent forgot the surprise in the truck ;)
🥹❤️🙏🏼
Me too! You think I would learn to not watch their videos while I’m putting my make up on😢
Really wish my parents were still here, this reminded me so much of my family
Now for your Moms' birthday, give her a frame photo of that surprised reaction, that was wonderful! :)
This was a fun episode, thank you and your family for sharing it all.
That would be a perfect gift!
I just LOVE Trent’s grandparents! They are the cutest!!!
Absolutely the the best present ever!!!
My mom passed away two weeks ago. This was hard but absolutely beautiful! Have a wonderful new year! ❤️
sorry for your loss may God be with you and your family
Sending a hug your way. I'm so sorry for your loss 💞🫂
I'm sorry for your loss and grateful that you could share in these genuine loving family memories.
Let your memories keep you warm too.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you as I'm sure your mother would want for you.
🎄❤️🎄❤️🎄❤️🎄🎉🥳🎊🥳🎉🥳🎊
It is said that a sign of a good storyteller is the ability to engage and make one’s audience connect emotionally. As I spent much of this video crying, smiling and laughing, I can positively say you are incredible story tellers! Thank you for sharing! I look forward to your videos every Monday and Friday! May 2023 be healthy, happy and prosperous!
Absolutely beautiful, nothing like the love of family.
I lost my dad 2 days before Christmas this year . Allie talking about appreciating every moment really struck home. Merry Christmas Trent and Allie, can't wait to see what 2023 brings for your little family.
My sympathies
I’m so sorry for your Loss!! It’s never easy losing a parent no matter your age or the circumstances!! Sending love and prayers your way. Wishing you beautiful memories and laughter when you think of your dad. 🤗
Hi Jasmine, my sincerest sympathies for your loss. I understand how you're feeling, i lost my dad 2 days before xmas in 2017 and i lost my mum in feb of 2022... I can remember last christmas (21) hugging her tight just in case (lesson learned after loosing my dad) and im so glad i did. Use all the memories you have to keep you warm and safe, they are the blanket balm that will help you get through it. Talk about them often to all your family, (if you are able too) it will keep him alive for you. Nothing can help with the hurt your feeling but it CAN help with the healing. Take care xx
My Condolences to you and your family. May he RIP.
All of them , BUT this one was a 😢 special one.
Trent, Allie and Leo. This was my very favorite video you have done. Thank you for sharing the love of your family with us for the celebration of Christ’s birthday. ❤
thank you for the tears of joy you gave me
Oh my gosh, my mama heart so understands the excitement and love that went into those tight hugs upon greeting her kids and grands. I miss my own grown kids and grandkids on holidays. I am so happy for you all.
What an amazing Christmas Day surprise for your Mom, Sisters and Grandparents! Their reactions when they were surprised were priceless and very amazing. Absolutely well done Trent, Allie, Leo priceless memories have been made
This was one of my favorite episodes ever. Never having a lot of family, it’s fun to watch larger families when they get together.
It really was, wasn't it? And I don't think we even saw one present being unwrapped...ok maybe but it wasn't made into a big deal.
This kind of magical surprise is what life is all about! We did this one Thanksgiving & walked into my parent's house & they thought we were 725 miles away. There's nothing like pulling off a surprise that brings family together for a holiday! Thanks Trent & Allie for including us in your special Christmas. ❤🎄
I’m not one to comment on videos but I have to say that sharing your family Christmas experience was awesome. I was smiling the whole time. Thank you for being vulnerable. It is a reminder that there is nothing better than family. Trent, your grandmother said it best. There is no gift in any store that can compare. God bless you guys. Be well.
I have been “with “ you since before you headed south to the most interesting travel into South America. I loved the engagement video and surprising Trent’s Grandma for a wedding. Leo’s 9 months in the womb and birth. Giving Brandon the truck was So Cool! But meeting family members and sharing adventures with you all has really enriched my life. It has been a great opportunity to live in snowy Utah and stay comfortably here in Texas! I loved every second of this episode! I feel I know all the siblings and Gloria and her parents! Thank you for a beautifully edited Christmas story! I will continue to watch because it is so very interesting! Happy Birthday, Trent! Thank you for sharing your lives with us! You are loved in the broadest sense of the word! Thanks again!
This is family. This is beautiful. This is priceless.
What a way to pull it together for the grandparents and family as a whole. This was beautiful. 💖
Trent your Mom’s reaction was priceless. We could see your sister processing what she was seeing 😊
Justin Young I know she was truly so surprised....😀
You have lifted us up with you generosity and your gift of surprise. So happy you were able to have the long overdue family Christmas. May God continue to bless you in 2023 and each day as it comes!
Love is the greatest gift of all! ❤️
Awesomeness! ❤️
Loved seeing Leo snuggled up in Great Grandma’s arms! Just so wonderful! She’s probably got the best hugs!❤️❤️
❤ there is nothing better than a house filled with a loving family ! Happy New Year, everyone!
Oops.. search on TH-cam!!
You can find me on TH-cam, quickly, by searching "Scottie Hodge, Hanvey Time Capsule ".
BEST VIDEO EVER!! Brought back so many of my family memories...not a dry eye in this house!!!!!!!!!!!
This was my favorite episode. There is no gift greater under the tree than spending time with loved ones. You are a wonderful brother for providing that for your family. The memories made will last a lifetime. It was wonderful to see your grandparents in good health. Your viewers will be impacted by any changes to their health as we've grown to love them and will treasure their appearances in the meantime. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you all. Looking forward to what adventures you will bring us on in 2023.
I didn't just enjoy this video, I LOVED this video! I love it when you guys show us time spent with family. It's so precious to witness. And what was nice is that the video started with time spent with Allie's family and ended with time spent with Trent's. You guys are truly there for each other, so much that the other person's family becomes your own family. I love that you take us with you for the holidays and family events. Many TH-camrs don't. Thanks so much for sharing so much of yourselves. Hope 2023 treats you guys well.
Yous two are just incredibly giving .
I gotta say this was my favorite video. It warmed my heart and I couldn’t stop smiling.
What an amazing video!! You both are just such caring, kind, loving, sincere, special people, and what you guys did for the vactioners pushing their rental up that hill was so kind, and thoughtful. We need more people like Trent and Allie in this world, we sure do. And Trent, your mum's face was so priceless, and your sisters too. I'm sure everyone watching shed a few tears, who wouldn't. Thank you again for sharing a very special Christmas with us all. Love to your grandparents, and not ever forgetting Joel!! Happy New Year to you both, and your wonderful family. Paula ❤🙏
I agree! And I LOVE Joel’s interaction with Leo! Leo definitely has a Big Brother to look up to and admire!! WTG Joel!!
This was my favorite! Merry Christmas and a blessed New Year ❤🎉❤🎉
so nice that you brought all your families together.
Like everyone else I loved this video. One of my favorite moments though was seeing the love between Allie's parents and Trent, especially Allie's dad. I thought how much Trent must appreciate having a dad now after growing up without one.
This was such an amazing video ❤️ My family went to crap after my mom died so seeing your guys family & that's exactly how my family used to be warms my heart! Please everyone, enjoy everyday because it can change overnight & it's never the same unfortunately... I hope everyone had a great Christmas & Happy New year ❤️
I am heartbroken to hear about your mom. I am so very sorry. . I know too how it feels and it never goes away; but we learn to cope with it. You will always miss her. Again, I am very sorry for your loss!!
I so enjoy watching this channel . Trent and Allie do such a wonderful job making us feel like friends. Watching Leo with his great grandma is just amazing😍 Trent and Alli have such a love for family and to get his sister and her family home for Christmas is like his grandma said, priceless.
When you said about you had been filming your 'real Christmas', you hit the nail on the head. The appeal of your channel is very much that you come across as real and not staged like some channels are. It's a pleasure to watch your adventures and happenings.
All good wishes for 2023 to the 3 of you plus the 2 pooches, of course! Take care 🙂. Love from the UK.
Thank you for posting a truly uplifting video reminding us all that relationships and people are what really matter and bring us our greatest joys! ❤
Massive props to whoever edited this video, I was hanging on at every turn excited to see all of the family members from every side of the family and you all have a big combined family! This video had everything, including Brandon! Happy New Year!
Trent and Allie your generosity and love for your family is epic. I love your videos that contain your grandparents and parents. This is my favorite video. Both of you have awesome families. I enjoyed the reaction of Trent’s mom when she saw her daughter and grandchildren.
Such a wonderful surprise, nothing better than being with family for the holiday’s.
What an amazing family Christmas gift!!!!! I was so overwhelmed and full of tears for you. I can only imagine how you all felt.
Thank You for the surprise!!!!!
Every time you share Grama, I cry. You are all truly blessed to have her in your lives!! This episode brought all the feels! Your mom is so lucky to have you for a family!! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to one of my favorite families!!
This is such a wonderful moment. Even more wonderful now. Such love that you have for your mom and family.
Leo is so comfy laying on grandmas lap. You gave your family the most incredible gift! I was bawling my eyes out when your mom saw them. Happy New Year!
I came home and didn't tell my mom I was coming and surprised her and her front door with my sister and the joy and surprise it makes it all worth it. I'm so glad you were able to give this gift to your mom and your grandparents and your sister in your whole family! Y'all got me crying.
"Can you believe all this happiness " awww heart warming !
Best…best video since Leo was born ! I cried cause you can feel the love of your families … so many don’t have that . 💜💜💜
well, I have been smiling from ear to ear for the entire 38 minutes and 23 seconds!! I feel like I was there and I hugged every one of you all!! Happy New Year by now!! Love from Michigan!
Grandma said it!! You can't buy that kind of gift !! Family is awesome ! Something I miss so much !
I’m so glad that Allies parents are like parents to Trent too. Looks like Trent and Russell have a great friendship and mutual respect for one another.
Oh my gosh, I was crying when Trent’s Mom went back into the house and saw her big “surprise”. It was PRICELESS!
Trent's mom's reaction got me...I didn't want to, but it got me. Great gift for sure. Happy New Year everyone!
I’m so glad you had the surprise at your grandparents, so they got to witness all the love first hand. ❤
I can't ❤️ this enough!!! Talk about instant tears when Gloria seen her true surprise. How special!!
Loved this so much! Thank you for spending some of your Christmas working on getting a video out to us! This video shows the true Trent and Allie from helping the vacationers get their car up the hill, to seeing your best friend and work partner, to the whole experience of surprising your Mom and grandparents! And I so love seeing Allie's Mom and Dad and their big smiles and love of Leo!
So heartwarming to see such a lovely couple sharing a very special Christmas with the whole family!
Watching your Grandmother hold Leo was enough to bring tears to your eyes. Hold on to those memories..
Trent your grandma is an absolute treasure. I cry whenever I hear her voice. She reminds me of my grams. I think I’m subscribed for your sweet grandparents ❤
I love how your grandpa shows up in a tie what a pure gentleman and Allie you’re right you don’t know how much time you have left with the grandparents. ❣️
We did something similar many years ago. We surprised my mother-in-law who was being treated for breast cancer. My husband, kids and I flew to Reno on Christmas Eve, rented a car to drive to Pioneer California Christmas morning. We had to go over the Sierra Nevada mountains to get to her house. She was totally blown away. A few days later we had to drive back over the mountains and they were closing highway 88 behind us. Great memories!
Leo’s sweet smile gets me every time. But your Christmas surprise made me cry. Happy New Year to all.
