Seeing your wonderful family and that precious Paisley growing so fast , your beautiful tribute blanket to Clair Bear, Patrick’s excitement over his new shoes…just so special! Jaxson was so cute in his hooded onesie. I was blessed to see your family gathering, so much! ❤
I have to say that a 3:00 Christmas eve service, sounds amazing. I'm catholic so we do the whole, 7 PM or Midnight Mass thing. 3:00 is such a wonderful time you can celebrate in the evening at home and festivities do not have to be so late.
Arike I just love watching you and your family get togethers. There is nothing like a close family. Looks like y'all have so much fun. It's such a Blessing to still have a living mother. Tfs ❤😊
Arika I really enjoyed watching. Love all the holiday traditions you all have as a family. The blanket you got with Claire bear was just so sweet...love you and your family ❤
We spent Christmas in the hospital with my husband. Our oldest son & his girlfriend, our youngest son & me spent Christmas with my husband in the hospital he's having surgery tomorrow & then he will have to stay until Sat or Sun. Before be he get to come home.
Praying for your husband! Sorry to hear y'all had to spend Christmas at the hospital but I'm sure you're thankful for family visiting with y'all there! Merry Christmas ❤
The blanket was so sweet. I couldn't help but tear up a little. All of you always have such wonderful family get-togethers for the holidays. Thank you for sharing.
That was a lovely video Arika. Sweet Paisley looks so much like her dad. The Claire bear blanket is so precious. Clyde doing his usual exploring! Thank you for sharing. ❤
After watching this Christmas video I had to go back and watch the last 3-4 Christmas videos as well. It brought my heart so much Joy to see your grown kids spending the 2 days with you all❤️ My kids are grown and gone (4,000 miles away) and I miss our old family Christmas time. You are truly Blessed❤
What absolute FUN with FAMILY!!! Have a restful few days... enjoying family while they are here.... I can't imagine what it was like when the kids were younger! Peace and Love ...❤🎉😊
Love watching the fun your family always has. LOVED your Claire Bear blanket! How'd you keep from boo hooing? Paisley is just adorable!!! It was good to see your mom and Patrick also. I pray that you and your family have an awesome 2024! Love and hugs from Tennessee!
Having been someone who worked at Cracker Barrel for 15 years with a portion of that being a Backup and Prep cook, That recipe is pretty close. However, the true recpipe does not have the sour crfeam so you can omit that. They make theirs but putting the cream of chicken, shreded hash browns, they use them straight from forzen the cheese and the onions in a mixer, like a kitchenaid with the salt and pepper and then throw that into a pan. easy peasy lemon squeezy. It never dis appoints. They biscuits are even easier than that.
😢 The Claire blanket got me 😢. What wonderful memories you all are making. Your holidays looks like a blast and you are so blessed that you can all be together like that. Happy New Year.
Love the beautiful family gathering everyone so happy. Patrick getting new shoes was so funny.Paisley is adorable and getting so big to fast . Your whole family is awesome . God Bless your beautiful family. Happy New year to all!
Merry Christmas Erica, I am sure in addition to Oven Frying You have heard about Microwaving Bacon, which is quick and it prevents all of Grease Spatters inside of Your Oven and all over Your Stove Top. I always make mines ahead and keep it undone enough so that it can become Crisp with a 30 Second Warm up.
Arika, my Christmas Eve tradition is watching the first episode of Walt Disney’s Wonderful World of Color titled An Adventure in Color/Donald in Mathmagic Land, which I do a 4:00 am Wisconsin time, cuz I was heavily inspired by the Swedish Christmas tradition of watching Donald Duck, and I proudly take my Americanized Swedish tradition very seriously and strictly.
Thank you for sharing your wonderful family with us all. Loved all of your Vlogmas videos. Oh, and your cats crack me up. What fun family traditions you have and I love that your kids still get together with you and do all of those fun things. Merry Christmas to you and God bless.
