    I’m a mother of five and grandma of four. How I enjoy seeing young women like you and my daughter, who love being keepers of their homes and good mothers to their children. I’m not saying we women can’t have other areas of interest, of course we can; but this job of prioritizing home making makes for a happy family life. Enjoy the season with your family in your lovely home. Thank you for your channel that will encourage and lend support to other young mothers. Because sometimes it can feel like an overwhelming and thankless job, but it’s actually the most challenging job on the planet!

    Natalie, this video made me cry both tears of grief and tears of joy. (Lost a brother 2 years ago and my father-in law in September) . What a beautiful post this was…the mixing of the reminiscing of Grandma and Grandpa, and the fun and love of your family celebrating together such a special time. Your faith blesses me, reminds me of what’s important! Thanks so much for being here! And SO glad you got that gorgeous snow !! God is So Good!

I’m 52 and have 8 grandkids. 3 lives here in Texas and 3 in Louisiana and 2 in Minnesota. When they are all together over here in Texas they all want my time and love and I’m so happy to give it. I’m pretty sure when I leave to be with the lord they will say the same things about me 🙏🏽♥️Thank you so much for sharing. God bless you and your family darlings

    Your family Christmas was beautiful! Your grandma was definitely smiling down on you all. I have a very large family and we all used to gather at my grandma's for Sunday dinners and holidays. I had so much fun growing up with my cousins. Your table was magically put together. You did your grandma's table beautiful honor. You are teaching your children what is most important in life. I loved watching the kids play, sing, and dance. You are truly blessed!

    After the story of your grandparents' table, you played the song "Silver Bells" which was my grandfather's favorite Christmas song; he and my grandmother passed away earlier this year and it's our first Christmas without them. That little musical memory got me right in the heart. 💕 God bless you and your family!

    That’s so amazing to have things passed down from grandma. My grandmother has been passing things to me as she declutters her house so I’ve been blessed to inherit some old beautiful pieces. Also the snow is so incredibly beautiful. This year I was going to go all out but we got sick with colds so we had a nice quiet Christmas snuggling and relaxing. I’m so happy to see you had such a beautiful Christmas. I love the singing around the piano. Merry Christmas and happy new year to you and anyone who sees this comment. May God richly bless you all.

    What you said about “the fact that you’re asking if you did enough means that you did”… I needed to hear that so much. This was my first Christmas as a mommy (with my baby on the outside), and I did so much less this year than I did in past years. Partly because I’m juggling so much more with a baby, and partly because we had a wedding out of town one weekend that my husband was the best man for and that just made us extra busy. But I’ve dealt with a lot of guilt over how much less I did this year because I thought, of all years, this should have been the year I did the most! I’m a mom now, I should be doing even more for my child. But I know I did the best I could. I made it as special as I could for her. Thank you for this reminder. It means so much.♥️

Also, the sweetest moment when someone brought over a tissue for I guess your grandmother? "O Holy Night" is one of my favorite Christmas songs, and it made me tear up as well. I would love to see more videos of you and your family singing together. I'm glad you all had a Merry White Christmas!! God Bless!

    My piano advice as a professional classical musician:
    - Get a regular tuning in April
    - Have your next tuning in October and have the tuner run through it twice.
    First having the shorter interval, and then having him tune through it twice should get it all the way up to tune (or as in tune as the instrument will handle) without breaking the bank.
    A fall/spring tuning schedule is favorable because the weather and humidity are similar. A winter/summer schedule will necessitate more drastic tuning to be done and you won't be able to focus as much on the long-term goal of getting the piano to A=440.

It’s always breathtaking and peaceful..and to watch nature and the beauty from inside your snow globe was gorgeous!!im sure that house has hosted some wonderful family times and for u to bring family get together now also..I think the house is so happy too..Natalie, u give such peace and calmness.i love watching u.u inspire me.thanks for sharing your love of God and your spirit with us.u have a beautiful family..please do more singing and playing in your videos..Many blessings!!Have a blessed safe New Year!!..

    Thank for the great idea! We live south of seattle but we’re not from here so I hadn’t even heard of the Lights of Christmas!
    We are high risk so don’t get to do many activities so this is great! We just bought tickets for tomorrow night! 😁 have a wonderful New Years!
    P.s. your drone shot of the woods was magical!!!!

    Thank you for all you do. You are greatly appreciated. I am thankful that the Prince of Peace was able to bless you with that Peace this year for Christmas 🎄 I am also thankful you were blessed with that beautiful table that represents that legacy of your phenomenal grandparents and their hearts of love and hospitality. May your 2022 be filled with many more blessings of peace, love , and joy.

    All the toys they got and they still want "my time" and something I baked like banana bread or cookies and that keeps them so happy! Feeling like I dropped the ball on baking the gingerbread men this year but who says I cant make them this weekend? Natalie gives us PERSPECTIVE :)))

    This vlog is just so lovely and just what I needed.💛
    Listening to you talk about your Grandma’s legacy and encouragement that we have done enough to give our families beautiful Holidays, was so touching and helpful. Love seeing your snowy homestead too.🌲

    As you two played the piano and sang, I watched you or Westin's grandma (I am thinking she is) in the background crying. It made me cry: so touching. Thanks for sharing your life with us.

    🌲 Christmas Eve looked perfect - so much love and joy! Your Christmas Day weather was the opposite of ours! Here in our little coastal town in Western Australia the temperature on Christmas Day maxed out at 47 degrees Celsius (116 degrees Fahrenheit) 🎄🔥☀️ So we were also staying inside mostly - as it was too hot to be outside! Your snowy Christmas looked beautiful ❄️
