We hadn’t had a tree for nearly 10 years. It’s nothing too dramatic but due to required traveling for bowl games we were rarely home for Christmas. But when you decorated your home for Christmas this year it really touched me. It made me realize again that even tiny Christmas details can make an impact on our hearts. I got a beautiful little tree and love it! Thank you for spreading Christmas joy.
Thank you so much for today! My spirits were lifted on a very difficult day. Today 6 years ago I lost my husband. Thru the sadness and tears that came out today, I kept remembering how thankful I am that I was blessed with him in my life. Thank you for reminding me that along with the hard things in life comes a thankful feeling that moves you on to life’s next adventure❤️❤️❤️
You are so lucky to have a chill enough job where you can pause every 90 minutes and make a gratitude list (and bake, paint, shop, etc at night--how nice!). A lot of us simply don't have that luxury in our fields. Plus there are kids to sort out, etc. I think you can always find something to be thankful for, but you have to admit that it is much easier when life is simple, and you don't have things like money, chronic illness, caring for others, etc to worry about. Guess it makes self-care even more important for us, if we can manage it. Happy Vlogmas!
SMA I have far from a chill job but I also know if I take 2-3 minutes to focus on the positive I am able to better perform in a really high stress and paced environment. I agree that I don’t have children and if you’ve followed me I shout out parents all the time because it is the HARDEST job. You see a snapshot of my life and there are absolutely difficult family things and trials but my goal with this channel is only to bring joy and a little escape for people. I work 11+ hours a day at my job but I also know the priorizing, planning, and thoughtfulness can allow me to get everything done. I wish you all the best this season and I hope you find something about vlogmas that you enjoy. Sending you nothing but great vibes.
Too many hilarious one liners to count in this one! LOL Bubbus and his cuteness is stealing the show though :) His beautiful big eyes when he is at the counter waiting for his Advent cookie had my heart melting :)
You’re funny and a joy to watch. I really mean that. I’m going through a difficult patch and honestly, I forget everything when I watch your vlogs. Thank you for that.❤️
No, no Christopher. Thank you for allowing us into you, Steven and Bubbas life. Also, by you showing us the act of kindness goes a long way and trust me when I say your vlogs is always appreciative. Love you guy's ❤️🙊
I LOVE the nativity commentary😊. Joe you live to see another day! AND....just like my house when the kids were small...dad wrestling with the kids and mom walking around cleaning up the mayhem (Steven fixing the tree). Lastly, I am 48 and I still watch Rudolph every Christmas season. Enjoy your trip.
I am currently teaching in China for a couple weeks. I make sure to watch your Vlog everyday because it keeps me connected to the Christmas holidays and gives me a little needed distraction. It's the only Vlog I can't miss. You are so delightful and I just wanted you to know that I am thankful for you on this Thankful Thursday.
That was so nice what you said in the car! I was wondering between last Christmas and this one, do you do anything with those votive candle glasses after you use them? I mean the ones from diptique. I would love to see a sit project using them. Have a great trip!
Safe travels today! I’m looking forward to your adventures this weekend. Your Vlogmas is my favorite and it’s part of my Christmas season. I am grateful for you and thank you for sharing your time with all of us😊.
You really turn my day around whenever I watch. Some days I feel hopeless and you help me bring a positive outlook to my day and ideas that I don’t think about regularly. I’m definitely going to try to find what I’m thankful for a few times out of the day and I feel like it will really help. Thank you.
Oh....Family Stone is one of my fav X Mas movies, along with White Christmas, Christmas in Connecticut, and Meet Me in St. Louis. Hope you have a great weekend and be safe you guys, no Mayhem...…..lol
Christopher, I so look forward to your vlogs. Quotes of the week- “We needed a shepherd like yesterday” and “This is what happens when Bubbas plays by the Christmas tree, Mayhem! Ahaaa!” I love you both🥰 Enjoy your weekend get away🥂 xo
Lol why do dogs bring their treats to the carpet...lol. Oh another sheep...they’ll stay warm with all that wool! I wonder what the heck happened to the first order of instacart, hmm so weird! My husband nd I purchased a Samsung set also and we love it, I like the ring tone but it would be nice if we could change the songs for the holidays. I can’t wait to see your cabin that you two are renting for the weekend...the pictures you showed were so cozy looking. Cheers! 🎄😍❤️🍷🎄🎄⛄️
The Nativity convo gets better every day. Lol wonder who got your groceries ? And how do you not have a camera system lol. Love your movie choices for the weekend.
“Cannot wait to open boxes of disappointment”😂 “ and the nativity chat is hilarious, you’re really brightening my days, especially waking to the result of a general election (Friday 13th is quite appropriate 😕)! I also always love seeing the difference in America goods compared with ours in the UK, they’re always just so much more, love your washer (that’s quite sad of me I know) the height and top loader aspect, our are mostly front loaders you have to bend down for, and no happy sounds!! Have a beautiful day and safe travels ❤️
Okay, I had to pause. You know you’re an old, married couple when your spouse says “oh, hey, I got your melatonin.” I just wasn’t expecting to hear that. Lol. Okay, back to the vlog.😊
I love the stuff that's inside the stationary boxes, but seeing your frustration makes me not want to order one next year. maybe they need to be opened while the box is laying flat and not vertical? The whole nativity dialogue cracks me up EVERY day. You are so hilarious. I am loving Vlogmas 2019.
Poor Joe...but I agree he needs to turn into a sheppard, those 🐑 are going to turn loose at any minute. Have a wonderful time at your house in the woods! Maybe next time, all of us should join you guys- te-he!
Well I have to say the Nativity Advent calendar showing for tonight was the best. Mary can be a alone because she is independent and don’t need Joseph. That was to funny. 😂 But we can rest assure that is Joseph. Thanks Christopher for always showing great content. Have a wonderful trip and safe traveling to cabin tomorrow. ✨🎄☃️🌟
"Mayhem" and Bubbas yay! what fun! Joe could tend to the tiny flock and tend to Mary - he just needs a plan lolol There are a plethora of mini dramas hovering around your Xmas this year and ALL are sweet and entertaining :) Both of you (and any other Kardashians that show up as they are prone to do unannounced lol)please have a safe and memorable trip and all of us will be watching and smiling.
Thankyou for allowing us into your life every year for Vlogmas. You and Stephen are just the perfect pairing. Christopher...lets decorate all the things...stephen "See this is what happens...Mayhem" Still Laughing
How in the world are you so organized and awesome?!! Wish you would explain your occupation a little more one day. Oh, and I made a little hot cocoa set up like you. Found sleigh at pier one. 😍
I have had a few rough months. I cannot express how nice it is to have the joy of laughter. Sorry about your Instacart order....do you think it was porch pirates? Hopefully they can track it down and realize it was just a missed delivery. Travel safely, looking forward to what ever you can share. Enjoy your family, hugs from Florida.
Enjoy Your Weekend Get-Away! Love your movie choices! My fav(?) Family Stone! BTW: Did those groceries ever show-up?!? Question: When you think of Christmas “food” - What’s your favorites? 🧀🍖🍗🍝🍤🥧🥂🍽🎄❤️🌹
I’m grateful to you as well Christopher, I consider you my YT friend. Please have a safe trip to your destination, I’m excited to see and hear about it all. Does Bubbas get to go?
Cracks me up when you call him Joe. Also, I’m a multiple bag packer as well and it drives my husband nuts. He said he’s giving me a rolling suitcase for Christmas and I’m not excited, bags are way more fun!
You guys don't have a Ring or a security cam to check to see of .a porch pirate took your groceries? We have Samsung smartcams. They are super easy to set up and you can put them in your windows or inside your house to check on Bubbas. We have them in both houses and you can check them remotely on the app. You can set motion and audio detections and it sends you a notification. Love them!!!
My kiddos and I made your cracker candy today. We are anxiously waiting to eat it! It smells and looks so good. Thanks so much for posting the recipe. 😊❤️
The whole nativity scene commentary is hilarious! “we need a Shepard, like yesterday” “Joe might need to be downgraded” I am going through an incredibly horrific time right now- your vlogs are bringing smiles that are so needed. Thank you!
Today a lady at Rite Aid said to please go ahead of her as she had two transactions. I almost asked her if she was a Christopher Allen fan. This doesn’t usually happen in my area. Usually it’s the other way with folks - asking to go ahead of my basket. ❤️
Steven's face when Bubbas is eating the cookie on the carpet! Haha!! Also, that's totes Joe. Sheppard should have a cane and the kings have crowns. #IndependentMary
I’m LOVIN that nativity advent calendar! The Joseph saga lives on!,😂
ONE single ornament falls on the floor.
Stephen: "Look what happens. Mayhem!"
ahaahahhaaa!!
We hadn’t had a tree for nearly 10 years. It’s nothing too dramatic but due to required traveling for bowl games we were rarely home for Christmas.

You are seriously so funny! I just love you so much! In my head we are like BFF's! lol Keep being Great! We appreciate you!
“Let’s open another box of disappointment “ lol. No sarcasm there. You crack me up Mister.

Mary's super independent because she didn't even need a man to get pregnant. 💪🏾🤰👼
You’re funny and a joy to watch. I really mean that. I’m going through a difficult patch and honestly, I forget everything when I watch your vlogs. Thank you for that.❤️
I love when you use the Bubba's voice! 🐾
Yes! It's the best!💕
Watch out for those sheep. They’re taking over the nativity scene.
Thanks for doing Vlogmas again this year - I love it!
No, no Christopher. Thank you for allowing us into you, Steven and Bubbas life. Also, by you showing us the act of kindness goes a long way and trust me when I say your vlogs is always appreciative. Love you guy's ❤️🙊

We are grateful for you. You are a delight. I love your upbeat personality. 🎄
If that was Stephen's idea of mayhem you guys have a very tidy life. Hysterical! Thanks for Vlogmas - it's so much fun.
My oven is from Samsung and it's happy too! Happy appliances make life fun!
You should build a little shelter out of cardboard for the farm animals and make a vlogmas diy!😃
Brilliant!
All the laughter you bring!!!!!!! Joe, the poor missing advent items...... love y’all
Safe travels! Wonderful to see Bubbas so playful!!
You really turn my day around whenever I watch. Some days I feel hopeless and you help me bring a positive outlook to my day and ideas that I don’t think about regularly. I’m definitely going to try to find what I’m thankful for a few times out of the day and I feel like it will really help. Thank you.
"We need a shepherd, like yesterday." Hahahaha--love you so much!!!
Omg! The comments about Joe and Mary cracked me up! Thanks for that laugh. You’re too funny!

The commentary while unboxing the nativity is my favorite part of the day 😂😂
Thankyou for allowing us into your life every year for Vlogmas. You and Stephen are just the perfect pairing. Christopher...lets decorate all the things...stephen "See this is what happens...Mayhem" Still Laughing
How in the world are you so organized and awesome?!! Wish you would explain your occupation a little more one day.
Oh, and I made a little hot cocoa set up like you. Found sleigh at pier one. 😍
“We need a shepherd, like yesterday.” LOL!🤣🤣🤣💗❄️
I have the exact same washer and dryer and agree completely. Love them, love how large they are and their cheerful sounds!
I have the same Samsung, I feel ya.😊 Came here from 2 Orchids channel. 🥰
The saga of the nativity lives on!!!! Joe, you live another day!
Have a fun trip!!! Be safe. What did Insta cart say happened? Christopher, what kind of car do you drive? I love the sunroof!!! Have fun!!!

Love the Olly Sleep to and especially the Goodbye Stress one! love all your vlogs!
I am loving the Nativity segment! Poor Joe!
"Mary don't need no man". Ha ha ha ha ha. I LOVE your vlogmas videos!
I can hardly stand the suspense! Will he go or will he stay? The saga of Joseph continues.
I bought the Nativity calendar this year and my boys and I love it. Our sheep are running wild as well. Send help!
I have had a few rough months. I cannot express how nice it is to have the joy of laughter. Sorry about your Instacart order....do you think it was porch pirates?

Such a fun Vlogmas even though not as you planned. Just like real life friend. Thankful we can keep calm and carry on. Excited for your trip.🎅🏻🎄⛷
Enjoy your weekend away. Loving Each and very vlog
Have a great weekend away, grateful for having you on UA-cam. Greetings from Australia 🇦🇺
I LOVE your Bubbas voice. My dog, Dakota has a voice too. :)
I’m grateful to you as well Christopher, I consider you my YT friend. Please have a safe trip to your destination, I’m excited to see and hear about it all. Does Bubbas get to go?
Love the washer! Bubbas is looking chipper .
Hope you guys have a great time this weekend. Enjoy your vlog's each day.
Your comments on the manger are hilarious! ❤️
Cracks me up when you call him Joe. Also, I’m a multiple bag packer as well and it drives my husband nuts. He said he’s giving me a rolling suitcase for Christmas and I’m not excited, bags are way more fun!

Wishing you guys a safe travels. Enjoy your time. TFS
Tell Steven that mayhem is when your mother in law has their tree in the front window and on Christmas Eve your dog knocks it over trying to see out.
Family stone is one of my favourite movies.
I am thankful for Christopher!!! oxo
Drive safely. I'm looking forward to the vlog tomorrow.
Not sure if you realize your overhead light is on in the back seat of your car 😊
I’ve been reluctant to use those laundry crystals because they smell strong. What is your favorite brand/scent?
My kiddos and I made your cracker candy today. We are anxiously waiting to eat it! It smells and looks so good. Thanks so much for posting the recipe. 😊❤️
Yay, Joe made it another night in the stable. And Steven, "look what happens. Mayhem!" 😂
You truly are a breath of fresh air:)
The whole nativity scene commentary is hilarious! “we need a Shepard, like yesterday” “Joe might need to be downgraded” I am going through an incredibly horrific time right now- your vlogs are bringing smiles that are so needed. Thank you!
Have a great weekend in the mountains!
We have the same washer and love it too!
Christopher, you're hair is the same color as the wine 😊 You can say your hair color is Blanc de Blanc!
Love this so much 🤍🤍
Also where do you get your matches at?
*mayhem* 🤭🎄 love The Family Stone, and of course xmas classics is a must 💜🐾
Today a lady at Rite Aid said to please go ahead of her as she had two transactions. I almost asked her if she was a Christopher Allen fan. This doesn’t usually happen in my area. Usually it’s the other way with folks - asking to go ahead of my basket. ❤️

I actually thought the same thing as Steven about the red cookie. Spazzy minds think alike.🤣
Same on day 12 of Kiki k - nothing! Ugh....
❤️🙏🏻For safe travels!
Loving vlogmas. Have a wonderful weekend!
