    the Duncan vs Jessica showdown with Luke christmas dolls chaos really was the best cinematic experience of the holiday season.

    I'm amazed that Duncan kept a straight face with Luke's toys singing, Roo butting in, and others laughing. He's such a determined little guy

      I love how gentle and cuddly he is. He's the total opposite of the way my boys were when they were little. Can you say,"bulls in China shops?" 😁❤️🎄🎁

    I've said it before and I'll say it again... Christopher and Jessica are seriously amazing parents. They don't spoil their kids with things they spoil them with love, patience, compassion, and lessons that will help set them up for success. These are some of the most genuinely kind and well brought up kids I've ever seen on here. Also the love that Jess and Chris have for each other is so precious. I know the perfect family doesn't exist but...

  • @CoreyAnneTeacher

    You can easily make the “Try Not To Laugh” game into a party/family game. One person can be the card reader and read the joke to the whole group. As each person smiles or laughs they are out. The last person remaining who did not smile or laugh gets the card and becomes the card reader. At the end (no joke card’s remaining) the person with the most cards wins. This makes the game even harder as you have to keep a straight face while those around you smile and laugh!! 😊

  • @vix9315

    It was so nice to see some of Jessica's side of the family. They are all so grown up now!

  • @Chanel.livd4_

    Duncan was amazing at the joke telling! The way he remains composure is incredible for a 5 year old. There’s something special about Duncan- he’s so intelligent and wise beyond his years. I think Duncan has a bright future 🤩❤️

  • @woodstocknomad

    Duncan’s repeated “why?” won the entire game, hands down

    Bailey did great at not laughing.
    I think Duncan had an advantage in this due to not being old enough to understand all the humor.

    • @Chanel.livd4_

    If you are looking for something between granulated sugar and powdered sugar you can use superfine sugar. It's essentially granulated sugar that's been processed a little smaller. Some blenders may be able to make it finer as well.

    Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house, the boys had their heads under the couch. The girl had her spot in front of the fire, in hopes that Saint Nicolas would step on her there.

Don't know what I'll do without my daily dose of Ballinger Family.

    So my mum taught me to make pavalova (Pav's in Australia we shorten everything haha.) The trick is to use castor sugar and to stop the mixing and rub a little of the mixture between your thumb pointer finger and if you can't feel the sugar anymore it's ready to form the nest.

    I really enjoyed advent with the Balingers this year since Jacob and I had the same calendar (though I was missing Phyllis, le sad). I will side with Chris and say that Duncan’s calendar was quite spectacular and has given me ideas for next years calendar.
    Also, like chef Jake, I was adventurous in the kitchen and made my first beef Wellington for Christmas dinner. IT was delicious!
