The relief it is to see a RUclips video of a great Mom that has some dirty dishes in the sink, stuff on the table, and random things on the floor ❤ It helps me to not feel so alone. So many times you see these “perfect” homes that have toddlers running around but zero mess. Those videos make me feel so bad about my home and me as a mom and wife, so THANK YOU for ALWAYS keeping it real ❤
Those videos are fake. Trust me when your babies are grown you won’t remember or care how messy your house was you will remember ( as will they) how mama played and stopped everything to play with them. You are doing just fine.
I love watching you're videos, you are showing us the real you tuber mom, no fake nothing, and it's so nice cause we all ain't perfect for sure, the way you are with you're girls, and them with you is so special...they will keep those memories forever...I love how you bring in thrifting, and not having to have brand new stuff, and just have a beautiful home and family...thank you for sharing, stop worrying about the other tubers...girl, you got them beat, have you not seen how the ones who act like they got it all, get big heads, they have to have new houses, cars, mind you Tesla car...house full new furniture that don't even look like anyone sitting on furniture or kids stuff around, then open up boutiques that been going out of business, then comes husband's quitting their jobs to join wives for you tube, then they divorce or have affairs with friends...I could go on and on...so girl you are what we need to show people there are good people on here wanting good content...and you do that...take it, you deserve credit, you are good ...keep us coming back...ok take care...
Finally Children actually being allowed to decorate the tree ! No one ever shows the children decorating instead everyone is wanting their tree to look designer. We always decorated the tree as a family and couldn’t wait to pull out the same decorations that have memories or were homemade by the kids each year adding a new memory to the mix. Such fun and great memories. I also love hearing scripture in your videos especially pertaining to working in the home and motherhood . For so long woman we’re made to feel less important if they stayed home to raise the family instead of of seeking a career . Sadly it was other woman who made woman feel this way . Iam so joyful to see many young woman embraceing and loving their roles as wives , moms. And turning their houses into sanctuary’s of love , peace and safety. What a beautiful gift God gave to us woman. You are such A good example of Gods love for other young woman. Many Blessings filled with love.🙏🕊❤️
Yes, glad some has said this, all those perfect monochrome trees. I have to admit, few years ago I wanted a tree like that, tried to convince my 5-6 year old at the time that we will only put 2 colors on the tree. He would not have it and I no longer even try. I let them decorate however they want. Its just perfect
@@joannarozmus4315 The memories your making with your children will remain with them always but I bet no one remembers the designer trees. God Bless you mom . My two boys are grown men . The last time I had a big tree after my boys moved out was so painful. I was alone putting up the tree and hanging up all the homemade ornaments and reliving all the past memories with tears in my eyes. I realized how fast the years fly by when raising your children and how much I missed my little boys. Enjoy all the moments you have you won’t believe how fast it goes bye.🙏🕊❤️
I never felt less important for being a stay at home mom- I felt “rich” because I could. (We were by no means rich). So many of my friends had to work to make ends meet. We lived extremely frugal to meet our commitment to live debt free and me to stay home. Still, I felt rich because I was wealthy in other more “important to us” ways.
Hi, Kristen. I'm relatively knew to your channel and was so touched by this video. Your reading of scripture was a true blessing to me. Thank you for showing your real side. Life is messy. Life gets in the way. Life is overwhelming. But life is GOOD! Be proud of the great mom you are and how you lovingly care for your family. God bless you. - Carla
Girl quit worrying about RUclips. Just do it when you can . By the way, that green shirt makes your eyes POP… Beautiful eyes Ms Lady! You enjoy your holidays!
I love when you let your girls help, they are a blessing to watch and have so much fun helping their mother. Your tree is beautiful, thanks for sharing in all the fun.
Your house wasn't a mess, it was lived in. It's refreshing to see real lived in houses on RUclips. Ivy helping you clean the floor was the cutest thing I have seen in a while. You could feel the joy in this video coming from your girls as you all trimmed the tree. Most of all, I love how the spirit of our Lord leads you and that you share your faith with us. God bless you and your family during this Thanksgiving and Christmas season.
Hi Kristin. You ARE a professional RUclipsr who has a family and a life (not to mention, your kiddos are still very young). I like seeing the clean with me videos-makes me feel more normal! OMG, your daughters are so sweet, beautiful, and happy! Says a lot about your mothering. When I was at home with my little ones (3), and did cleaning, quite often I reminded myself that I was doing whatever task was in front of me to honor God. He puts us in that position to mother, cook, and maintain a home to produce healthy people-who hopefully also honor God. You are doing a wonderful job, and I’m sure it is pleasing to God! ~Cathy
Kristin don't ever feel that you need to apologize to us -your fans!-. My 3 young children are grown and gone on their own now but I remember how it all felt so overwhelming! Your doing great! I love that you included your girls being a part of it all.....they are beyond cute❤❤❤I watch some videos and the kids are no where to be seen ! Don't they take part in the tree trimming? AND that green colored top makes your eyes POP!! And I love your hair curled!! Relax and enjoy those sweet little girls......some day your house will be calm and stay clean and you'll look back and miss these days ❤ Kathy from Pennsylvania 😊
Oh Kristen, what a treat watching you and your precious girls working together so they could partake in the decorating of the tree. Such sweet memories you are creating. Hope all is well with you and all your family. Remember, the nearer we draw to God, the more the enemy tries to take you down. However, you know that you are a child of God, and the enemies fiery darts will not harm you because you have the armor of God to protect you and yours. Have a blessed week. Remember to give yourself some grace. See ya again soon 😊❤😊❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Ivy scrubbing the floor with her tiny piece of Kleenex was the sweetest thing ! Your girls are adorable , you are a blessed woman . Great looking tree everybody . Blessings for the week to come ,💕🎶🎶
Loved watching you and your girls decorate your tree. Their joy is contagious. Ours are all grown, and I miss having little ones to whom even the old and familiar things are new again. 🌲🙌🏻💗
Kristen those of us that watch your videos aren’t looking for professional RUclipsr. We watch (at least I do) because you are real and raw. You show life as it is, never perfect. I appreciate that the moms watching you are able to relate and not have expectations of a perfect life, that doesn’t exist. So thank you for giving yourself some grace.
I noticed your beautiful sponsored green couches are gone. That's a shame. They were lovely. I think your tree looks pretty without the linen strip's. Overall, though, it was lovely to see your daughters help decorate the Christmas tree.😀
I asked what happened to the couches and Kristen said they sold them. What a pity. I thought they were the nicest thing in that home. The couches had the pizazz of new furniture, but they were traditional enough to blend in well with the eclectic, country home.
Sorry you’ve had a lot happening lately. I loved the girls being apart of today’s video. So sweet and they were so cheerful to help. I loved how it turned out. Happy Thanksgiving 🦃☕️🍂🎄
Today I am struggling, and watching you and your daughters has helped to carry me along, motivate me forward to clean up my own messy house. I'm missing my three sons terribly, feeling a little lonely. So I've watched a little at a time, then had a spurt of cleaning and come back for another moment of yourself and your daughters to lift my spirits again. It's worked for me. Thankyou. And please pass on to your daughters my love and thanks for the warm joy they bought me today. X I think they've earned another treat 😂
By the time I was 12 I ran our commercial fishing lake when my mom was grieving my dad's passing. All summer myself and two younger sisters got up at 4 a.m. and worked till 10 p.m. every night selling tickets, food, mowing 7 acres, and on and on and it was the best time of my life and I learned so very much. It made me strong.
Best decorated tree I've seen so far. Liked that your daughters helped to decorate the tree. That's the best part of decorating your tree..with family...
I was in tears watching you and your beautiful girls decorating. It is the sweetest! Thank you for talking about being gentle on ourselves. Keep doing what you're doing.
Kristen is it always so enjoyable to watch your videos and today was extra special seeing your darling girls. IF you ever get west of Omaha, head to Grand Island and go to the Railroad Towne Antique Mall. It is a fabulous antique store, 3 floors of antiques. Then you can head further west to my town called North Platte and go to Grain Bin Antique Town. This would be a must in the spring, summer or fall. It is 20 wooden grain bins each filled with all types of antiques and a full size massive shop filled with primitives, antiques, antique furniture, you name it. And if you get to Grain Bin, look me up and I will take you around. Your tree turned out lovely!! Thank you for your authenticity and sweet video today!!
I love your honesty Kristen. I appreciate the fact that you live your life in the real world. Over the years I alwas put so mich pressire on myself to have the perfect house. I worried comstantly what people, friends would think about me if I didnt have the perfect house. Thank you for being your real self. I had tears in my eyes watching you and your girls working together. Your home and your tree are beautiful. Happy Holidays!🙏❤️
You are my absolute favorite. I love how authentic and genuine you are. Your smile lights up a room. I love these video vlog chats. Your mess is an absolute beautiful mess and I can’t wait until your next video.
I love that Elizabeth Elliot quote. It’s so encouraging and inspiring! The color of your sweatshirt is very flattering to you btw. It really brings out the color of your eyes. I’m so happy that the Christmas season is here. First, Thanksgiving at my son’s house, then I will totally let loose 😂
Your tree is beautiful...your children adorable. Remember to give yourself Grace. When things get stressful, take a deep breath and when you exhale let all the stress fall away and revel in his warmth and love. Blessings and prayers...
Sweetie you are a real professional you tuber and what I love about you is that what we see is a regal person. Everyone of the you tubers have messy houses also they just don’t show that part. Sometimes when emergencies happen it is hard to be on a normal routine. You are amazing your girls are adorable like their mom.
Kiersten, this really made me smile just with joy of Christ and family… This was so real and I just appreciate that. Thank you for letting us into your life!❤
Uh- I hope you ignore any ridiculous comments you get! I love your videos and part of the reason why is because I do feel like you're real. I know you don't show everything in your life, and you shouldn't, but what you do show is real and relatable. Also, it's so nice to see someone letting their kids decorate the tree with them and be involved. Please keep on being you.
Your tree looks so natural and goes so well with your home 🎄 I love the way you use all kinds of ornaments. We started a tradition to buy a Hallmark ornament every year. Since we’ve been doing this for 45 years, the tree doesn’t have many other ornaments. Most RUclipsrs ask what theme you’re going with this year and I want to say the same one I always use.
I love that you’re so normal and real, Kristen! Your house is lived in like so many of ours are! Those RUclipsrs with the micro-managed homes with mirrored images found on Pinterest are too sterile!
This was the most precious idea ever! I loved watching your girls help you and their excitement was contagious! My eyes were leaking a bit reminiscing of years gone by when I children were little and loved to decorate the tree.
Great video! Now I think I need a vacuuming/mop , too. Your content is refreshing, authentic & a relief from other content with “perfect houses, decor & target runs”. Thank you
Kristin, what a sweet video with your precious little girls! I couldn’t help smiling and clutching my heart as you all decorated your tree. Everything turned out absolutely beautiful!! ❤️
Love your video! Again - real life! Most people can’t do all of the decorating in one day. Naww we do the Christmas decoration tradition with our girls too. So sweet. 😍💕
One of the reasons I like you and your channel is how real you are. I actually leave feeling normal and empowered which isn't always the case with other's videos. So thanks for another great one Kristen. ❤
Love this cleaning video becuz it was so real & being a mom is so *daily*. But you did it with love & joy. I appreciated your comment about the mop becuz I'm really leaving into a vac & mop. Your home is so cozy & your tree is really pretty!! Have a great week & thank you for the vlog 💖
Beautiful! 😍🎄 Thank you for the word! I loved this video! Although my heart is so heavy & broken & I can barely stand the thought of the holidays. I lost my husband of 35 years & my boys are all grown & married. Watching you with your sweet little ones took me back to the happy, magical days of old! Priceless, precious, overwhelming joy moments! Thank you beautiful friend! 😍🥰🎄❤️
So sorry you are hurting ❤️ Try to make this holiday season special. Honor yourself and all of those precious memories you helped create. Wishing you peace and abundant blessings.
May the peace, hope, love and joy of Christmas surround you. Try to do something special with your sons and their families, even if it means that you do the planning. Treasure the memories that you and you husband shared of bygone Christmases. Volunteering for those less fortunate, will show you that you do indeed have many blessings.
This video just melted my heart. I’ve been here for several months and your kids are such lil dolls but today their lil personality just really touched me. Ivy cleaning the floor with that napkin… so precious! There all just adorable! And can we say YES to real life girl! What tree is that? I love it!
Kristen & family, As always I love how you decorate! I also decided to Scale back on the decor on my tree an in my home this year, for several reasons! I just Love watching u all as a family decorate!❤❤❤❤❤🐶
Watching from the UK, I love your channel. It feels more like real life than some of the other ones. Your home shows signs that a family actually lives there, and not everything works out as planned because life isn't perfect. We can cheer your successes and recognise the struggles. Your home is beautiful, not the sterile, soulless environment on some of the channels. X
Du bist so gut zu deinen Kindern,so eine liebe Mama bist ,das freut mich u alles machst du mit deinen drei süßen Kinderchen zusammen,prima , super .Ich wünsche euch ein schönes Weihnachten 👍❤️👋
I loved this video! My girls watched part of it with me and they were oohing and awwing over it! I also loved seeing your girls in this video! Your new painting is gorgeous!
Love how your girls pitch in and help. They r good little workers and helpers. Our tree is going up this week. Taking fall down and letting the house rest before Christm😂ad comes out and up.
Hi Kristen, I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate you and your channel. I love that you share not only your faith but also real life. I’ve not put up my tree yet, I like to leave fall décor until after Thanksgiving and then do the tree and winter decor. Your tree is absolutely beautiful!
Your girls are growing so beautifully..Ivy with her spikey little pony tails ..absolutely adorable ! .Appreciate the scripture reading and encouragement .I needed the christmas cleaning and decor motivation this year ...Thanks Kristen ❤
This was my first time watching your video and I have to say Thank You for keeping it real, so many you tubers homes are to me Un real if that is even a word. Most of us don’t always have the clean well decorated homes, where everything is so perfect, I thought it was refreshing that you would show your home that is blessed with love and precious children. And you’re not ashamed to show a home that is lived in. I will continue to watch your videos God Bless🧡🧡
You and your girls remind me when I put up the tree with my kids!!!! Enjoy them when they are little because time goes so fast !!!! Yes life does happen to all of us and we make the best of it … thank you for an enjoyable video !!!!
Kristen don’t worry about RUclips. You do you girl, I’ve been there family things and illness. It’s hard to muster up the energy to do everything. This world puts pressure of perfection in us and we aren’t perfect. Your girls are so precious enjoy these times with them. I wish I was your neighbor, I’d come over and help you clean 😊. I just love your tree, it looks so real and the decorations look great. Blessings sister, you look beautiful 💕
Hey Kristen! All you can do is just do your best. I like that you are real and honest. Your girls were good helpers! Everything turned out great! May you and your family have a Happy Thanksgiving!🦃
Kristen...THANK YOU. I needed this video. Sometimes.you just get tired but it's doing simple things like cleaning your house with your kids that picks you up. This was a truly wonderful video to watch.
Thank you for your honesty, I so love the Bible verse and your follow up to explain the meaning in real life. Your girls are being well brought up in Gods word. I love the green color on you ❤❤❤your eyes. Always remember you are a child of God, you have no idea how many lives you touch with your walk with our Lord and Savior. Have a very Happy Thanksgiving ❤❤❤
Kristen , you told us that you were trying for another baby, Maybe that is why you are so tired? Your girls are quit the sweethearts. Ivy is a doll with your dimples. You have continual movement with the family. It is what it is. They are growing so fast. The tree look great. Joyce
Your tree has so many lights just sparkles. Not sure how our tree will look this year. Would love to have little hands helping. We had covid at Thanksgiving and still recovering so I am planning to keep decorations simple and not put so much on myself. I will enjoy all the RUclipsrs getting it done! Hugs to the girls and to you. Enjoy!!!🎄🎄🎄
Girls you have done a beautiful job. The best tree ever. Kristen you need to stop worrying about us. You are real and it is a wonderful thing. You have fun with your girl’s and have wonderful memories 💚💚💚💚💚💚
Your girls are so cute and pretty,which is no surprise, they have a very pretty mom,your hair is looking great by the way,the tree really matches the style of your home,can't forget your cute doggie too,have a happy Thanksgiving !!😊
The relief it is to see a RUclips video of a great Mom that has some dirty dishes in the sink, stuff on the table, and random things on the floor ❤ It helps me to not feel so alone. So many times you see these “perfect” homes that have toddlers running around but zero mess. Those videos make me feel so bad about my home and me as a mom and wife, so THANK YOU for ALWAYS keeping it real ❤
Those videos are fake. Trust me when your babies are grown you won’t remember or care how messy your house was you will remember ( as will they) how mama played and stopped everything to play with them. You are doing just fine.
You are doing an awesome job...Great Mom and wonderful youtuber...!! Thankyou for all you do and share. Happy and blessed Thanksgiving....❤❤
It's possible to have a clean, neat, orderly home with toddlers and children.
Wow, thank you!
I love watching you're videos, you are showing us the real you tuber mom, no fake nothing, and it's so nice cause we all ain't perfect for sure, the way you are with you're girls, and them with you is so special...they will keep those memories forever...I love how you bring in thrifting, and not having to have brand new stuff, and just have a beautiful home and family...thank you for sharing, stop worrying about the other tubers...girl, you got them beat, have you not seen how the ones who act like they got it all, get big heads, they have to have new houses, cars, mind you Tesla car...house full new furniture that don't even look like anyone sitting on furniture or kids stuff around, then open up boutiques that been going out of business, then comes husband's quitting their jobs to join wives for you tube, then they divorce or have affairs with friends...I could go on and on...so girl you are what we need to show people there are good people on here wanting good content...and you do that...take it, you deserve credit, you are good ...keep us coming back...ok take care...
Finally Children actually being allowed to decorate the tree ! No one ever shows the children decorating instead everyone is wanting their tree to look designer. We always decorated the tree as a family and couldn’t wait to pull out the same decorations that have memories or were homemade by the kids each year adding a new memory to the mix. Such fun and great memories. I also love hearing scripture in your videos especially pertaining to working in the home and motherhood . For so long woman we’re made to feel less important if they stayed home to raise the family instead of of seeking a career . Sadly it was other woman who made woman feel this way . Iam so joyful to see many young woman embraceing and loving their roles as wives , moms. And turning their houses into sanctuary’s of love , peace and safety. What a beautiful gift God gave to us woman. You are such A good example of Gods love for other young woman. Many Blessings filled with love.🙏🕊❤️
Perfectly said.
Yes, glad some has said this, all those perfect monochrome trees. I have to admit, few years ago I wanted a tree like that, tried to convince my 5-6 year old at the time that we will only put 2 colors on the tree. He would not have it and I no longer even try.

I never felt less important for being a stay at home mom- I felt “rich” because I could. (We were by no means rich). So many of my friends had to work to make ends meet. We lived extremely frugal to meet our commitment to live debt free and me to stay home. Still, I felt rich because I was wealthy in other more “important to us” ways.
@@jannier9766 I felt exactly the same and did exactly the same and loved it ❤️
I love how you witness to the Lord, that is your ministry. The decorating tips are an added blessing to all
I just found your channel! I just Love your realness, openness and honesty! With Jesus!! Praying for you and strength!
Welcome!!
Hi, Kristen. I'm relatively knew to your channel and was so touched by this video. Your reading of scripture was a true blessing to me. Thank you for showing your real side. Life is messy.

Thank you so much!
Girl quit worrying about RUclips. Just do it when you can . By the way, that green shirt makes your eyes POP… Beautiful eyes Ms Lady! You enjoy your holidays!
Agree! people are going to follow when you post a video ❤️ no biggie I’d rather watch you than the PROFESSIONAL you tuber what ever that is LOL
Thank you so much!!
I love when you let your girls help, they are a blessing to watch and have so much fun helping their mother. Your tree is beautiful, thanks for sharing in all the fun.
Happy holidays!

They really were beautiful! It was a hard decision to make!
🎄Hi Kristen, Family comes first. Life happens for sure, and you do what you need too. The kids are darling. The tree is just perfect!
Hey, the two Mary's at the tomb isnt just an Easter scene. That's an everyday scene 🙌 I've never seen that painting and I love it!
Sorry you’ve had a lot happening lately. I loved the girls being apart of today’s video. So sweet and they were so cheerful to help. I loved how it turned out. Happy Thanksgiving 🦃☕️🍂🎄

I was in tears watching you and your beautiful girls decorating. It is the sweetest! Thank you for talking about being gentle on ourselves. Keep doing what you're doing.

Your girls are PRECIOUS and good helpers! Love the red for Christmas especially with children growing in the home! It’s festive!!!!
Happy holidays!
im glad to see you enjoying your time having your small children to help with the tree. I miss those days,,, and remember them well.
Happy holidays!
Your tree looks so natural and goes so well with your home 🎄 I love the way you use all kinds of ornaments. We started a tradition to buy a Hallmark ornament every year. Since we’ve been doing this for 45 years, the tree doesn’t have many other ornaments. Most RUclipsrs ask what theme you’re going with this year and I want to say the same one I always use.
Exactly!
Just a heart warming video! I also have three girls and we decorated the tree together as they were growing up. Such special times! God bless ❤
Happy holidays!
Such a sweet and warm video. I love that you and your daughters decorated together. Thank you for sharing these moments with us!
Love that the girls love to help decorate the tree. They will have happy memories of those times. The tree came out so beautiful and timeless. 🎄❤️
Thank you so much 🤗
I enjoy watching real life videos. You live a real and blessed life with that little family of yours.
I appreciate that!
I love that you’re so normal and real, Kristen! Your house is lived in like so many of ours are! Those RUclipsrs with the micro-managed homes with mirrored images found on Pinterest are too sterile!
Your tree looks beautiful and precious! The girls helping you clean and decorate....a treasure to remember. The years go by too fast.
Yes! Thank you!
Oh I love your tree, you girls did a wonderful job! 🎄
Thanks so much! 😊
What a cosy video!! Just relax and dont appologize to us because whe love you anyway❤
The tree is very sweet and the girls were great helpers. Hoping you and your family have a Very Happy Thanksgiving.
Happy holidays!
This was the most precious idea ever! I loved watching your girls help you and their excitement was contagious! My eyes were leaking a bit reminiscing of years gone by when I children were little and loved to decorate the tree.
Thank you so much!!
Great video! Now I think I need a vacuuming/mop , too.
Your content is refreshing, authentic & a relief from other content with “perfect houses, decor & target runs”.
Thank you
So glad!
Kristin, what a sweet video with your precious little girls! I couldn’t help smiling and clutching my heart as you all decorated your tree. Everything turned out absolutely beautiful!! ❤️
Thank you so much!
Love your video! Again - real life! Most people can’t do all of the decorating in one day.
Naww we do the Christmas decoration tradition with our girls too. So sweet. 😍💕
The light shining through the orange slices is so pretty ❤
Beautiful video with your sweet girls. I really enjoyed watching you decorate with your girls 🎄🌟The tree looks lovely!
Thank you so much 🤗
One of the reasons I like you and your channel is how real you are. I actually leave feeling normal and empowered which isn't always the case with other's videos. So thanks for another great one Kristen. ❤
You got this!
Love this cleaning video becuz it was so real & being a mom is so *daily*. But you did it with love & joy. I appreciated your comment about the mop becuz I'm really leaving into a vac & mop. Your home is so cozy & your tree is really pretty!! Have a great week & thank you for the vlog 💖
Thank you so much!!
you can put the big bulb deep into the branches of the tree to fill in the gaps that artificial trees always have.
What a sweet mommy you are❤ Bless you!
Beautiful! 😍🎄 Thank you for the word! I loved this video! Although my heart is so heavy & broken & I can barely stand the thought of the holidays. I lost my husband of 35 years & my boys are all grown & married. Watching you with your sweet little ones took me back to the happy, magical days of old! Priceless, precious, overwhelming joy moments! Thank you beautiful friend! 😍🥰🎄❤️
So sorry you are hurting ❤️ Try to make this holiday season special. Honor yourself and all of those precious memories you helped create. Wishing you peace and abundant blessings.
May the peace, hope, love and joy of Christmas surround you. Try to do something special with your sons and their families, even if it means that you do the planning. Treasure the memories that you and you husband shared of bygone Christmases. Volunteering for those less fortunate, will show you that you do indeed have many blessings.

Thank you! 😊
You have the most adorable sweet little girls. ❤
I loved 😍 this video. Your girls talking to the camera. 🥰
So glad!
This video just melted my heart. I’ve been here for several months and your kids are such lil dolls but today their lil personality just really touched me. Ivy cleaning the floor with that napkin… so precious! There all just adorable! And can we say YES to real life girl! What tree is that? I love it!
I think I mention it in my first tree video from 2021!
What adorable little helpers you have.
The heartwarming atmosphere and those gorgeous girls with music
This video was pure perfection 💜
Thank you 😊
😍love all your Little Helper! My grandkids help me decorate the tree too. Enjoyed the scripture.
Kristen & family, As always I love how you decorate! I also decided to Scale back on the decor on my tree an in my home this year, for several reasons! I just Love watching u all as a family decorate!❤❤❤❤❤🐶
That is awesome!
Watching from the UK, I love your channel. It feels more like real life than some of the other ones. Your home shows signs that a family actually lives there, and not everything works out as planned because life isn't perfect. We can cheer your successes and recognise the struggles. Your home is beautiful, not the sterile, soulless environment on some of the channels. X
Du bist so gut zu deinen Kindern,so eine liebe Mama bist ,das freut mich u alles machst du mit deinen drei süßen Kinderchen zusammen,prima , super .Ich wünsche euch ein schönes Weihnachten 👍❤️👋
So sweet. God has surely blessed you. Your girls are delightful and I know you are raising them to love the Lord.
Thank you so much!
The oranges give it a stained glass look.🌲 I love those big 🌟 stars too and all the different ornaments ...very pretty...
I loved this video! My girls watched part of it with me and they were oohing and awwing over it! I also loved seeing your girls in this video! Your new painting is gorgeous!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Love how your girls pitch in and help. They r good little workers and helpers.
Our tree is going up this week.
Taking fall down and letting the house rest before Christm😂ad comes out and up.
Hi Kristen, I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate you and your channel. I love that you share not only your faith but also real life. I’ve not put up my tree yet, I like to leave fall décor until after Thanksgiving and then do the tree and winter decor. Your tree is absolutely beautiful!
Thank you so much!
Your girls are growing so beautifully..Ivy with her spikey little pony tails ..absolutely adorable ! .Appreciate the scripture reading and encouragement .I needed the christmas cleaning and decor motivation this year ...Thanks Kristen ❤
Thanks so much
Love love 💕 and love 🤗 authentic and natural family atmosphere. Beautiful tree 🌲 ❤
Happy holidays!
Love it...life does happen..please don't worry....I just LOVE Ivy cleaning the floor ❤❤❤❤❤
Me too!!
Your tree looks beautiful - it was sweet how the girls pitched in! I love your new hairdo - you look really pretty!
Thank you so much!
I always start decorating with cleaning and clearing. Then it is like a reward when you decorate.
And well done with showing real life, and the encouragement from the word. Sweet halpy times with your girls.
This was my first time watching your video and I have to say Thank You for keeping it real, so many you tubers homes are to me Un real if that is even a word. Most of us don’t always have the clean well decorated homes, where everything is so perfect, I thought it was refreshing that you would show your home that is blessed with love and precious children. And you’re not ashamed to show a home that is lived in. I will continue to watch your videos God Bless🧡🧡
I hope you all are ok, medical stuff can be so scary. Thanks for the realness. Take care. 🦋
You and your girls remind me when I put up the tree with my kids!!!! Enjoy them when they are little because time goes so fast !!!! Yes life does happen to all of us and we make the best of it … thank you for an enjoyable video !!!!
Kristen don’t worry about RUclips. You do you girl, I’ve been there family things and illness. It’s hard to muster up the energy to do everything. This world puts pressure of perfection in us and we aren’t perfect. Your girls are so precious enjoy these times with them. I wish I was your neighbor, I’d come over and help you clean 😊. I just love your tree, it looks so real and the decorations look great. Blessings sister, you look beautiful 💕
Thank you for being real!!! It lets the rest of us off the “perfection” hook. 😅
Always!
Hey Kristen! All you can do is just do your best. I like that you are real and honest. Your girls were good helpers! Everything turned out great! May you and your family have a Happy Thanksgiving!🦃
Agree do your best and God will do the rest
Thank you so much!
Kristen...THANK YOU. I needed this video. Sometimes.you just get tired but it's doing simple things like cleaning your house with your kids that picks you up. This was a truly wonderful video to watch.
I'm so glad!
Ivys such a good little helper. You enjoy the journey with your babies. They will grow up and leave before you know it. ❤
So true!
Thank you for your honesty, I so love the Bible verse and your follow up to explain the meaning in real life. Your girls are being well brought up in Gods word. I love the green color on you ❤❤❤your eyes. Always remember you are a child of God, you have no idea how many lives you touch with your walk with our Lord and Savior. Have a very Happy Thanksgiving ❤❤❤
Kristen , you told us that you were trying for another baby, Maybe that is why you are so tired? Your girls are quit the sweethearts. Ivy is a doll with your dimples. You have continual movement with the family. It is what it is. They are growing so fast. The tree look great. Joyce
You have the sweetest girls and so helpful. Your tree turned out beautiful.
Thank you so much!
Your tree has so many lights just sparkles. Not sure how our tree will look this year. Would love to have little hands helping. We had covid at Thanksgiving and still recovering so I am planning to keep decorations simple and not put so much on myself. I will enjoy all the RUclipsrs getting it done! Hugs to the girls and to you. Enjoy!!!🎄🎄🎄
Thank you for being real!! The girls were good helpers!
Girls you have done a beautiful job. The best tree ever. Kristen you need to stop worrying about us. You are real and it is a wonderful thing. You have fun with your girl’s and have wonderful memories 💚💚💚💚💚💚
Your girls are so cute and pretty,which is no surprise, they have a very pretty mom,your hair is looking great by the way,the tree really matches the style of your home,can't forget your cute doggie too,have a happy Thanksgiving !!😊
Thank you so much 🤗
