- Hello, Lovelies! it’s Natalie welcome to today’s video where together we are gonna get it all done before Christmas! (Or if you’re watching this after the holiday I hope it gives you the motivation and encouragement you need to check off your to-do list and bring some peace into your life!)
I’m all about getting things done while balancing the to-do list with some fun and self care. So not only are we doing some cleaning, a major toys declutter with my kids, wrapping gifts and prepping and planning for the holiday but we’re also enjoying some down time with a little Christmas coffee recipe, making cookies, cooking a fun holiday themed dinner, hanging stockings and doing some decorating.
I love sharing our simplified lifestyle as well as all the comfy and warm things that make us feel at home. I’m all about keeping it real while sharing the beauty of life and being an uplifting and cozy spot in your subscription feed no matter what time of the year it is! Don’t forget to give the video a thumbs up if you enjoy it and subscribe if you enjoy motherhood and minimalism videos.

SENDING SO MUCH LOVE AND HOLIDAY WISHES TO YOU ALL! I hope you have a wonderful week! Don't forget to turn on that bell so you don't miss the video going up next week! It's a gooooood one!
edit: Sorry for the abrupt end of the music during the mantle decorating portion of the video! I got flagged for copyright with a song I was given permission to use ( 😤) so I had to overlay one of UA-cam's tracks and there's no way to do a nice Natalie-style fade-out.
My favorite Christmas song is a bit unusual. It’s called “I’ll Be Brave for Christmas” and is such a wonderful song for military kids who are facing yet another Christmas with a parent deployed. It came out very shortly after my Dad retired from active duty, but whenever I listen, I’m brought back to all of those Christmases when I was little with him gone again.
My English Nan was only 4ft 10in., but she was always busy and in charge (even at our house). She always insisted cleaning before your company was foolish as "they're only going to muck it up". No, we weren't going to clean in advance, but after the event. She would entertain us with funny explanations as to how certain messes were made while we cleaned up. "Oh, that was Uncle George dancing with his cookies." Or "I watched your Dad hide that teacup on the mantle." I think I enjoy your videos so much because your love of family is nearly as fierce as my own. I am always happiest when my daughters and grandsons are telling stories about growing up and spending holidays at our house.Your children will have such lovely stories to share and carry in their hearts because of the love you put into caring for them every day. Merry Christmas!
Thanks for putting your family/mental health ahead of social media and taking a break to enjoy the holidays. I want keep seeing the positive aspects of family vloggers. Your channel is still one I view and appreciate the realism and boundaries you have decided to make for you and yours. Don’t ever lose that spark you made for your channel. ❤️🎄 happy holidays Natalie!
Love your mindset on not doing the deep cleaning during the holidays to keep yourself Cheerful for Christmas! I needed that reminder. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
I needed this today Natalie!! I made a long list of cleaning tasks to do and it exhausted me just making it. I end up overdoing it and resenting my husband and daughter for “messing” up my hard work. It’s important to slow down and soak up the MEMORIES.
All my cleaning recently has left me exhausted, depleted and grouchy. I so resonated with that comment as well. I’m a stay at home mom and have decided to give myself a vacation from today - Sunday. All the vacuuming and mopping can wait😆
Loved this video! You have it jam packed with so many inspiring moments. I’m going to use your idea for wrapping the throws I got for my nieces by twisting the ends! 😍
"Well, sometimes we have to do jobs that we don't like" 😆 Good training, Mama!
Omg you're so stinking cute with your Christmas tree and snowman pizzas! I love it.
“Angels We Have Heard on High” is my favorite Christmas song. “Baby Boy” is a close second. 😉
You are just soo sweet with your kids, I love it. My favorite christmas songs are 'All I want for christmas is you' and 'Christmas Time'.
It gets worse before it gets better is my motto too! Merry Christmas and from Australia
You are a good mom!!!!
I love that you're always so positive. Your channel really is a nice, cosy space for me🥰
Merry Christmas, Natalie! Wishing you, and your family all the blessings, and joy of this beautiful season!🌟
My favorite Christmas song has been “Noel” by Lauren Daigle. Such a beautiful song.
Merry Christmas to you and your beautiful family. Really hope you have a peaceful and happy new year. Here is hoping that 2021 will be a better year for everyone on this earth...
Making mine and the kids bed right after having breakfast keeps me motivated and makes me feel like half of my life is in control now
Hi neighbor! We are also snoopy fans in this home! We have the same gray blanket as you do as well! It’s sweet to see that you love snoopy and Jesus and live in Seattle area because I do too!
I love how you wore the santa hat while wrapping gifts! It's the little things 🙂
Your videos/ blogs are so beneficial to watch. You have a wonderful family and a wonderful mama you are!
Your entire house declutter for the holidays inspired me to do the same! I spent all day today decluttering and then donating! I think I’ll continue tomorrow, too. Thanks for all the great content! I’m motivated to “get it all done” 😉
Watching this video after Christmas but still enjoying it just the same. Totally helping me motivate to get my Christmas stuff put away and go from there
So excited - this is the perfect day for this!!
Thanks so much for sharing this video! Love watching all the gift wrapping, baking and Christmas drink making!
We have raw Irish oats 1/4 c in a bowl, frozen blueberries
Sliced almonds, Primier Protein, 1T pea protein, monk fruit made the night before. Yum.
Silver Bells is one of my favorites. Such a nostalgic holiday song. I’ve been obsessed with perfecting a gingerbread cookie recipe!
Just tried your doupe Gingerbread latte recipe and I must say, it’s better than the ones we had to make at Starbucks. SO GOOD! My husband isn’t a coffee drinker and he’s obsessed 👌🏽
Perfect timing! I have a mountain of laundry to fold and put away, plus some tidying up to do.
🎄 kitchen is definitely that space for me that I can't stand not to be clean. I heard that your kitchen countertops determine your state of mind and it is very true to me. If I feel myself bad than kitchen is messy and vise versa. Happy Holidays to your family.
Thanks for keeping me company this morning! 💖
3rd time watching! my daughter loves your videos and we watch them together all the time!
Everytime I watch your videos it encourages me to get stuff done!! Merry christmas from New Zealand!
We started having a song alarm from our Amazon echo to get our son out the door for school. We ask him every morning what song he wants and when it goes off he rushes to get his shoes on.
Merry Christmas Natalie 😍🎄⛄🎅🏻
Merry Christmas❄️🎁☃️🎅🏻🤶🏻❄️☃️
Ideas for date nights would be fun to watch
My kitchen table always gets me since everything accumulates on that one surface so I'm forever putting things away!
You are a rock star!
Love the mantel and stockings! So pretty.
Watching this for some Christmas cheer in July 🥰 Thank you for sharing!
“How many kings “ Downhere. Love this song!
Thank you so much for the before Christmas cleaning motivation!! Happy holidays! 🎄✝️
Another amazing, wholesome, inspiring and beautifully rendered video Natalie. Thank you for the joy you bring to my day. Much love and merry Christmas!
I love the classics, but a more upbeat FAVORITE is Danny Gokey’s Lift Up Your Eyes. It never ever gets old!
This was such an enjoyable vlog. I watched it while drinking my morning coffee and it was so calming. 🎄🎅🎁🎄
Thanks for always having such great content on your channel!
Merry Christmas to all!
The prime rib Christmas supper is what I ask for for my birthday gift every year.(My birthday is the 25th also). The only bad part is, I have to do the cooking for it. Lol! So worth it though! Family and love is what it is all about! ❤🎄🎅❄ Making those wonderful memories!
I love your videos, you are so encouraging and motivating.
I loved this video! I'm a fairly new subscriber of yours but already I am so thankful that I found you and your channel. It's my moment of calm in the week and I love it! Have a wonderful and cozy Christmas!
Great video! Definitely a good kick start to the holiday week this morning, thank you!
Love you videos Natalie! Enjoy a well earned break with your lovely family - merry Christmas 🎄
Hi! Mom of grown kids again lol. Enjoy those children during this time! We decided when we had babies to not go anywhere Christmas day so they could take enjoy their Santa gifts all that day. Best decision ever. You have to do what works for your family.
We love staying home too! ♥️
Loved it again! Thanks for sharing, and I will sure be making some lists myself this week🙈. Crazy hectic life and our country is in lockdown. So lists for food, for my work (disabled care), lists for encouraging people online with our church (music) around Christmas... (oh, and it’s my birthday Wednesday, but usually that is not really a big thing, since I’m always singing or playing music around these days everywhere🙈.)
Have a blessed Christmas week!
Merry Christmas, Natalie!!!
Love your videos! You are so encouraging. Praying you and your family have a very Merry Christmas!
Love this video
Thank you so much for your witness to the world!
🎄this video took 3 sittings for me to finish (so many interuptions!) We have Italian cold cut sandwiches on Christmas Eve too! We've done it as a picnic on the floor in front of the Christmas tree since I was a baby and have carried it over into my own home! We also eat that as leftovers for lunch on Christmas day. 🙌🏻 AND my husband and I do a weekly at home date night too! We don't always get to order in but love it when we do. 💕 Merry Christmas Natalie!
My favourite Christmas song is I'm dreaming of a white Christmas.
I love your videos they motivate and are relaxing and I get so sad went the video is over 💕 hope you have a very merry Christmas!! Happy birthday Jesus❤️❤️❤️❤️
I purposely waited til after the Christmas gift exchange to watch because I knew I would need all the motivation I could get to clean up the after mess LOL!! MERRY Christmas everyone 🎄🎄
Your videos keep me motivated! Love love love! Thanks so much 😍
I like your video so much happy Merry Christmas and New Year
Yay. I’m cleaning today also. Thank you for the video
Wonderful video Natalie !!! Do you have a video of the shelf (mantle) you made !!? It looks beautiful !
I was feeling down and your video brought me some cheer and motivation. Thank you for that! Merry Christmas to you and your sweet family♥️😊
My favorite Christmas song is I want a hippopotamus for Christmas. It’s so fun.
🖐🏼🤗🎄💕 Merry Christmas!
loving the longer video today!! 🤍 Merry Christmas Natalie!
Ironically, I had been wrapping while watching other videos and then this one, but finished right when you got to wrapping and invited us to join you ;)
Baby it’s cold outside is my favorite song 😊
What an amazing video ,you're an awesome mom😘😘😘😘
This is the perfect video for this week❤🎄
This video is a LOT of work 💪💪💪💪.. Merry Christmas, Natalie .. God bless your family 🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄
I love your Christmas decorations. Hope you and your family have a great Christmas!
Merry Christmas to you and your family Natalie 🎄🎄🎉🎉🎉
Loved this video! Merry Christmas to you all! Jesus is the reason for the season!
Favorite Christmas song is The Christmas Song by Nat King Cole. It’s classic and always gets me in the Christmas spirit. Second favorite is Silent Night, so beautiful.
Merry Christmas to you and your lovley family, and thank you for all your videos this crazy year. I hope you all are safe and well. Take care. Happy New year from Norway. 🌲🌲🎁🎁🤗☕🍭🍬🎉
Canada 🇨🇦 Starbucks still has the gingerbread latte. I’m so thankful! It’s my favourite!
I loved your stocking stuffer hacks. I am putting the pringles and goldfish in their stocking this year.
Ah! Love it! ♥️
Thank you for the laundry reminder. Totally needed!
Yes! You're welcome!
Yes totally needed! When she said that I remembered I put on a load yesterday morning. Oops! Haha 😄
my favorite Christmas song is The Christmas Shoes by NewSong. It reminds me of the true meaning of Christmas and of course makes me bawl like a baby every time I hear it! LOL
Something to look forward to! 😍🎄🎁
O come o come Emmanuel (For king and county) , and o night divine (David Phelps) are my top 2 favorite christmas songs ! Your pizzas were such a fun idea !! Haley eating the snowman's little nose 🤗
My absolute favorite Christmas song is The Christmas Song by Nat King Cole.
Love the video! And I'm feeling the same way about the deep cleaning lol I have my parents coming to town for Christmas, and I feel the urge to just have everything clean (even the oven and baseboards) LOL but it's so true, now doesn't have to be the time to get it all done! Thanks for being so real :) merry Christmas to you and your family 🎄
Favorite movie is Year without a Santa Claus. Peanuts movies too.
Was wondering if you wouldn’t mind sharing just a little in regards to your kids in school. I know so many families have their kids in school and it’s so encouraging. I have friends in different states and countries and their kids are also in school. We are in Southern California and this is not even a conversation to have our kids in school. Just you could share anything that is good and positive. Nothing political just encouragement and maybe bring some peace of mind to all of us. Hope this makes sense.Thank you and stay blessed
I never make it to these but happy to be here!! Been a fan since 2018
What a way to close out the year! You put so much work into this, and the whole time I was thinking that you are a mom whose "children call her blessed."
A Christmas song I love is a choral arrangement of The First Noel by Dan Forrest! It is breathtaking! Hope you love it 😊
MERRY CHRISTMAS! 🐪🐫🐪✨🎶
Loved this ! Merry Christmas 🎄
Merry Christmas to you and your family I hope you have a great holiday season can't wait to see your videos next year I enjoy watching them so much and has the given me some great ideas my daughter is now or followers🎄⛄🎅
Your videos are always so motivational and calming at the same time! 💖 I recently uploaded a last minute Christmas getting it all done type of video too. ☺️ My daughter is only 7 months old, but I hope that I’m as sweet and intentional of a mom as you are when she gets older.
I don’t celebrate Christmas but this video was so heart warming and motivating! I loved every detail you put into Christmas planning, it made me excited for when my holiday comes around! I’ll definitely be using your tips for when that time comes. Happy holidays 🎁🎊
I love that you still enjoy Christmas centered videos when you don't celebrate it yourself! 😌 What do you celebrate?
@@veggiesarah9437 I celebrate Eid! It’s a holiday that we celebrate after we finish our month of fast! I do still enjoy this time of year with all the holidays it’s so festive.
Just set up my christmas tree today.
And looking forward to this #premieregang
I never comment but I wanted to let you know I tried the gingerbread latte recipe and it was perfection. It’s my favorite and it was so disappointing to not have it at the Starbucks. Thank you!
So good. Merry Christmas!
Thanks
I grew up with having Apple sauce and milk on my oatmeal. I usually have that now too, or I mix some vanilla protein powder in the oatmeal and top it with raspberries, walnuts and milk 👌
