    I love the way you treat your kids with respect and the way you speak to them with such love and kindness.You're a great mom.

    I absolutely loved this video, it was fun to see the older girls and teenagers personalities & the great relationship they have with each other and with the littles.
    It's great that everyone tries so hard to actually keep their secret Santa an actual secret! I've watched other channels where teens don't keep it a secret after 5 mins and are swopping names because they wanted someone different, your family's seemed full of love.

    Love shopping with your family! As other people have said, ignore any negative comments. Everyone has different budgets and different choices for their families. This family is so loving and kind to each other. You’re a wonderful mother!!! Don’t change, and Merry Christmas!! 🎄🎄🎄

    Love how people say what you buy is unnecessary or way over priced. That organic food is not needed . Well for them maybe so. But in saying that it is up to every family what they wish to purchase for their family.

    Fabulous Christmas Shopping vlog as always, a little note about your beautiful bread I was slightly envious seeing such a fabulous display but did you know that if you did have an organic loaf and got it sliced through the machine that it becomes non-organic simply because of all the other breads that may have gone through the machine that were non-organic and leaving crumbs etc behind. ( ex large supermarket manager). Have a very Merry Christmas when it comes. Much love from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

    I get all my Sprindrift at Target and they just came out with Fuji Apple. I recently started liking Olipop too and I make a yummy drink with ginger ale and unsweetened cranberry juice mixed in and it's delish! Olipop vintage cola and tropical punch are the best flavors and tropical punch tastes like Hawaiian punch. Our Costco also sells Olipop for the cheapest price but it only comes with rootbeer and strawberry vanilla. Ridge Rush is supposed to be like Mountain Dew. I'm a drinks girl and love making my own cold brew and creamer to go with it too.

    I cant believe how expensive that bakery was. 50 for a standard fruit cake is mental. You should visit Northern Ireland sometime. I used to think our prices were dear. Which I guess based off our wages they are, but compared to US prices it's so cheap. We would pay about £8 max £12 for a plain fruit cake at christmas.

      Bakeries in the U.S. tend to be expensive. Sometimes it's worth it for special occasions. Grocery store bakeries tend to be cheaper, so there are definitely different options for different budgets and occasions.

      Hi, I appreciate you sharing your thoughts. I understand how things can come across differently depending on perspective, but I'm mindful of what I share and how I involve my family. Showing moments of our life, like shopping together, is something we enjoy as a family and isn't meant to be exploitative. Regarding the vitamins, I put them back because I found them $10 cheaper online. Thank you for commenting, and I hope you have a wonderful holiday season.

      Have they changed? They spend obscene amount of monies on items that are organic and unnecessary to actually be healthy. It is like a real life ad for everything organic. But that is okay, the family clearly has the money and even in my disagreement with a lot of purchases I have learned from this channel. Personally I would leave out the Jesus stuff but I lived in the South 30 years and know how to ignore that.

      Harry Potter is based on Satanic witchcraft. Also sadly all of Hollywood is. Truly it is very painful how the enemy as used entertainment to hinder the plans of God. Please know this precious family is not aware of this as they are young and have never encountered this influence other than through books and movies. Sadly Satan has taken hold of God's most beloved through smart phones, computers and media. May the Lord always bless this beautiful family with His love and mercy.
