Watching this a year late and its so cute to see the whole family now that i know everyone from their new channels! Russell is the cute: Bonnie - Raise your had if you've ever got in trouble for.... Russell - I've got in trouble! I've got in trouble - like he's proud of it! What a cutie!
Those bows made me cry! My grandpa did woodworking for as long as he could and watching him give his "creations" to his kids was always my favorite part of their christmas party. Thanks for sharing!
I've said it before but your family is truly so sweet and so admirable with the way you treasure each other and your traditions, and with your neatness (which I love), kindness and outlook on gifts and Christmas!! Dang, I wish I were part of it! Thank you for inspiring us! Lovely to see your joyful time together. x 💗
I seriously cried when they said it was Kevin that made the bows. That is such an incredible gift, so selfless! What a talented man! What an awesome thing to be able to do for family! I am in awe!
What a fun party! Those bows were incredible! Looking forward to playing the "Heads Up" with my husband's family on the 24th and mine on the 27th. Thanks for sharing!
Wow BEAUTIFUL BEAUTIFUL bows!!! You guys are so incredibly lucky to have such a tight net and loving family. Only three more days! Merry Christmas to you all.
The way your family celebrates Christmas is so special. I love all the traditions you have carried on and are passing down. The love you have for one another is very evident.
I am just blown away by All of your family. I have very rarely seen such Love for one another. Truly a wonderful God centered house and family that makes you one of the richest channels on TH-cam..
You are so kinda. My parents worked hard to teach us to be grateful and put God first. Though we are still leaning this comment really make me more grateful for my parents. Thank you I am glad you enjoyed.
I absolutely loved this vlog...seeing your family truly love and appreciate being with each other was beautiful....and those bows! Wow!! What a gift. The thought and time your brother put into making them was just beautiful. Thank you for sharing your family with us.
This was so beautiful! My husband and I are stationed overseas in Japan and we are really having trouble feeling the Christmas spirit without family around this year and being so far from home. The feeling of love just shines through the footage that you captured. Thank you for helping me feel more of the Christmas spirit!
Aunt Linda is precious. I've worked with adults with cognitive disabilities in the past. Some of them had little to no family. But when they did see their families it absolutely made their day.
I love that you guys have such strong family values and this time of year is no exception. So many people forget what Christmas is realy all about and are just excited about opening their gifts. Don't get me wrong, everyone loves giving gifts and wow - all of those wonderful gifts were from the heart that you'll all treasure for many many years to come. On a lighter note - all of that delicious food! Yuuuuuuuuumy. I saw the cheesecake there and my mouth filled with drool LOL.
I already know that I am going to watch this video again and again it's just wonderful to see this harmony and joy in your family... hopefuly one day I will experience the same :) thank you so much for sharing your life with us!!!
This video gave me that warm & fuzzy feeling your family just seems so nice and it's great seeing families just enjoying time together it's beautiful to watch
Thank you for sharing your family with us. I can't even describe how this video made me feel. You have a beautiful family, incredible traditions. I truly felt the love your family has for one another while watching. Merry Christmas!
What a truly touching and beautiful vid. So many beautiful moments you shared here, but what stands out the most to me is the joy and love (and admiration) I see in your mom and dad. When we are young and raising our children they are "fun" moments but as we grow older (like me) and the "circle is broken" the memories are rooted in our hearts. God bless your wonderful family and Merry Christmas. The surprise for the guys made my eyes all wet... each a true masterpiece! Fenton is/was from my home state-love the white milk glass.
I have NEVER met anyone that has the same Christmas tradition as our family! We used to have to put a little concert just like yours before we opened gifts! My dad has 8 brothers and sisters and all of us kids would be practising for months leading up to our Christmas get-together so that we could share a piece of what we'd been working on. My cousins and I were reminiscing on this tradition just a couple of days ago and talking about how we didn't know anyone else that did this. And now I do! LOVE IT, GUYS! :)
I loved seeing how your family celebrates christmas! It warms my heart to see that your family knows what the true meaning of Christmas is about! Merry Christmas!
Wow,both sides are y'alls families are so talented! I don't really have a big family so I reply enjoy your family vlogs and I just love your aunt Linda. And those bows were amazing,great job Kevin!
Ellie and Jared, you have the sweetest family I have ever seen. I truly felt like I was invited into your family's home for Christmas and I thank you for sharing your joyful day with all of us. Merry Christmas!! Much love!
You guys have a beautiful family inside & out! The little girl who played the harp was AMAZING!!! I was really touched by her music. All of your family is very talented! From piano playing to making things. Lots of wonderful talent. I am excited for you all to find out the gender of baby cakes! One question, I hope you can help me with or someone on here when I try to open a link below it never will open for me. Do you have any idea what I should do or what I am doing wrong? I click on the link & then click open, but it doesn't open. Have a blessed day!!!
We LOVE aunt Linda!!!!!!! Ellie that bowl you got, my mom has one in purple!!!!!! Your family is so special! My husband was drooling over those bows!!! Those were seriously gorgeous! Merry Christmas!
one more comment as i watch the video... you guys just make me so happy i could feel the love you guys have for family and each other. thank you for sharing your lives with us!
Love the inscription on the bow. This vlog was such a blessing. Christmas really is all about family and being around the ones you love most. I'm so glad you share your special family memories with us. Merry Christmas!
I cried watching this. Which could totally be pregnancy hormones, but I just love seeing how close your family is! So wonderful. MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!! Can't wait to find out what Babycakes is!! 😊
I loved this video! So cute seeing the whole family together and I loved your mom's point about gift giving/receiving. It's absolutely a fabulous reminder! It's crazy to see Jackson so little because Calvin is bigger NOW than Jackson was in this vlog!
Awesome vlog, you really showed the spirit of Christmas. It's about being together with our family and friends and also celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ.Merry Christmas Ellie,Jared & Jackson from my family to yours xxx
I just actually watching this. so nice to see you guys get together in one big family in an occasion. your family reminds me of my aunt's family, she had 7 children and many grandchild along with sister-in-law living with her and my uncle.
You have such a lovely family! I love all the traditions around your Christmas party! I can see where you got that kindness, optimisme Ellie. Your parents are such wonderfull amazing people!
You guys (and your extended family) have kinda become like my family. I'm only 38 & both my parents are gone now. I had the kind of relationship with them you guys have with each other. I have my husband's side of the family but they are at an arm's length. They like it that way. We get together at Christmas and they say they want to get together more but when we try - they can't ever give us a time or day. I love that while I am recovering from major abdominal surgery over Christmas and can't go anywhere this year... I can turn on the TH-cam app & spend time with my other family! Thank you for such a long enjoyable post this time. I wish they were all that long! Jackson was so cute waving bye bye to his cousin.... Wishing you guys the Merriest of Christmases & praying many, many blessings over your whole family in the coming year!
So sorry you lost both parents!! :( I hope your holidays this year are very cheerful. Absolutely this is a huge family effort even my parents feel that way. We are one big family! Thanks for being apart of it.
What a nice video. How sweet was your mom w/ the paper dolls. I bet the girls loved that. The gifts you all got were so nice. But most of all it looked like you all enjoyed being together :) Hope you & all your family have a wonderful Christmas, Thank you for sharing your days with us.
Thank you for sharing your Family Christmas with us. I loved seeing some of the traditions your family has. The Christmas Program is awesome, I would love to do that with my children and grandchildren.
Those bows are beyond beautiful. And so sentimental. The hours spent making those is priceless. 💜
