I'm rewatching the Cihristmas videos and this one had me so emotional when Andrea opened the copper mugs from Tom and said I'm happy with just this gift. She was the most caring, sweetest, loving wife and mother who was taken way too soon. Andrea, you are greatly missed! ❤❤
Oh my what a delightful day this was! Poor papa Gary with the jelly bellys, I hope he is doing well. What fun memories all the kids have of their sweet mother ❤ 💙
The Easy Bake Oven has to be one of the most classic Christmas gifts for a little girl ever. Eden will remember it her whole life. Melted my heart. Great video!
I'm only half way done with the video but had to stop and comment. Solomon's little bashful smile when Thomas opened his "To Jesus" gift just melted my heart. What a cute thoughtful thing to do!!! :)
Your children are so humble ❤❤ it warms my heart. All the kids nowadays just want expensive things for Christmas like phones laptops etc. and Thomas was so happy just to get thumbtacks, that really just warmed my heart.
i am in awe of you. i only have one child and he wears me and my husband out. i dont know where you possibly find the energy. you are raising a beautiful family. i enjoy the videos. thank you for letting us into your lives.
Oh my goodness, Judah's excitement and hope that Papa would get snowed in with you so he would have spend the night...priceless. Thank you for sharing your beautiful family with us.
I love the interaction between your children ..the respect and love they have for each other is so sweet...Great parents raise great children...truly raising children of the Lord...thank you for sharing with everyone.
Andrea Mills, I just love your family! It warms my heart so much to watch your beautiful family. I am a single mum with just one son, and have longed for a large family like yours. I live through your videos of what I have always ached for. Thank you.
I've only just stumbled across your vlogs and just wanted to say how refreshing it is to see a large family which hasn't compromised quality of life. It is expensive to raise one child well yet you do it with 8 and if I'm not wrong would welcome even more. Also, Judah's expression whenever he opens a gift is I'm sure one almost every parent would want to see during these happy family moments.
I am watching this with tears rolling.Hilarious tears watching PaPa Gary eating the jelly beans.Sentimental tears watching Andreas reaction to her copper mugs.Her laughter was infectious throughout.God bless the Mills Family as holidays approach.❣️🙏❣️🙏❣️🙏❣️
I can't wait to have children of my own. And watching this makes me want them even more. Me and my husband are just waiting for God to bless us with a bundle of joy. You have a beautiful family. 💛💛
I feel like all my life I was just biding my time until I could be a wife and then a mother. Real life started once I had a baby to nurture. I hope that a little one arrives at your house soon!
I was seriously laughing out loud at your dad trying the jelly beans! I would have not taken any more chances after having one bad bean, but the fact that he kept trying made it even more hilarious! :)
Aww ! Looks like the family had a great day . Sad you couldn't leave but great that your friends could come over for some fun and games . All of your children never seize to amaze me with their kind hearts , wonderful manners , intelligence , funny wit , and their humbleness. You truly are a wonderful mom , wife and Godly woman that I look up to . You are amazing with your children and teaching them all your incredible knowledge. You always are doing something sweet for your husband and your faith makes your already beautiful self shine a little more . The things that you know about health , healing , sewing and so nigh more I would love to learn one day . Thank you for sharing parts of your life with us . I hope to be even half the mom you are one day . I have a horrible immune system because of my Systemic Lupus, Fibromyalgia and Epilepsy. I was wondering what natural things you suggested ??
I really enjoyed this Christmas vid. The kids loved their presents and were very grateful I love how they all share and the jellybeans had me laughing my socks off, thank you so much for sharing your family with us. It put me in the mood for Christmas lol well there is Christmas in July, I'm off to make gingerbread men with my grandson have a blessed day
You have such a beautiful family, I love watching all of your vlogs and other helpful videos :) Thanks so much for sharing, and may your family be blessed in the new year!
I love how thankful each child is for everything well... except for the rotten milk candy lol It is so nice to see Andrea and she is so beautiful!!! And you will have a gorgeous wife that will be waiting for you and your other son also. I know this is hard this time of year but you will love your homecoming she will have your home all ready for you all. It's nice that you guys had a nice family day Christmas day. Those are the best I like how Andrea's sister was having fun lol making memories how fun!!!! The best I was thinking about my one and only sister... that passed 5 yrs ago. And I was thinking about her and watching her doing the sister thing made me smile. I miss her but now I try to think of the fun times instead of tears. Merry Christmas Mills family. Love and prayers from the Branom's
I got an EZBake Oven when I was a wee lassie (and so did my daughter when she was a wee tot!) They are so much fun! Watching everyone try the Bertie Botts Beans was hilarious! Your children have so much Joy! This was fun to watch! TFS!
I know you probably get tired of my comments, but just love your family so much, Thanks for blessing us with your videos. So nice all the traditions and ideas you pass on to us.❤️😊🙏🏽 I am going to watch this video early next year to get motivated fo Christmas.
Believe me, I never get tired of seeing your name pop up! You're always so nice and encouraging and who doesn't like having someone around that is nice and encouraging?!
can you please make some of your hair tutorials that you do on your daughters I just love the way you do their hair like on Christmas you're so sweet your family is so perfect to watch you are doing such an amazing job with him good job on you and your husband
Just watched toms video of your present opening, well done girl for fighting through it, #girlpower and I'd just like to say, I've not been watching you for long but since I have you have been a big inspiration to me, I have 4 kids that I homeschool, 2 boys 2 girls, we are in a 3 bed house and I was starting to think it was too small for us cos the kids are growing, but since watching you I've realised that it's not, it's just me thinking it is cos of everything we have in it, so now I'm in the process of decluttering so I want to say Thankyou and don't listen to the hate you are amazing 😊
Happy Christmas from our family to yours ❤️ Looked like everyone had a great time Eden is such a sweethearted little girl not even taking one for herself and waiting till another day to make more. that looked like deep show , no snow in ireland this year :( have a happy and safe new year
I got so wrapped up in "being" at your house that I thought, "Oh, we're not going to be able to get out and about tomorrow." Then I remembered that it's Dec. 28th today and I live in New York State! ;)
my Christmas routine:wake up go be the alarm for my family go downstairs open stocking when mom or dad gets down finally open presents eat turkey spend time with family then I sleep thank u for watching my christmas routineXD
Looks like y'all had a great Christmas ! For sure a white Christmas .. wish we could get some snow .. Iam in Alabama so we don't get much around here. Love and blessings.. kiM
i love the sense of humor that your boys have 😂there so funny, i've only ever seen snow a few times in my life and only once was it snowing, i've always wanted to know what's it like to live in the snow, definitely something on my bucket list :)
I know; I tease him because he doesn't have one of those bubbly personalities and he sometimes comes across as very un-enthused. It's him! The upside is that when he genuinely laughs about something, you _know_ it's funny.
A lot cheaper to use those boxed Jiffy mixes. That's what my sisters and I used waaaaaay back in the early 70s (the olden days lol) when we got an Easy Bake.
So sweet! Sophia sure loved her Peppa Pig house. What was the matching card the older boys all got? I loved the Beanboozled tries! Hilarious! Especially your dad... What a good sport. On to Tom's channel for the great unwrapping challenge!
We got the boys each a computer game. Since we bought them on-line there wasn't anything tangible for them to open so we printed pictures of them and wrapped them.
For some reason Justus and eden remind me of each other:) They look alike and seem like they have similar personalities! Andrea, do you hear that a lot?
I enjoy plain chocolate like a Hershey bar, but I don't eat a lot. I don't really like all the sour stuff they do. Last night Tom asked all the kids to stop buying him stuff for awhile (we went to the grocery store and several of them came home with things for him) because his candy stash is getting much too large and he'll never eat it all. He was feeling a little depressed by too much candy! :)
Merry Christmas! We had horrible weather. On Christmas Day we had a thunderstorm and then it froze over night. I am not sure I ever remember having a thunderstorm in the winter here in Minnesota.
Someone said there was lightning here, too. I thought I saw some on Christmas Eve when we were out driving and looking at Christmas lights. I thought I was imagining things, but maybe I wasn't!
We had really loud thunder along with rain after we were all home and tucked in Christmas night. I know we've had this in northern Michigan but it certainly is rare.
Just visiting a Mills' Christmas 🎄, again, it's so nice. I ran across the comments about the thunderstorm in winter. I was stationed in northern Germany in the early 80's. We were having one heck of a snow storm, and I mentioned to my roommate that I saw what seemed to be lightning and the heard thunder. I'm from central Texas, we have our fair share of thunderstorms. I had never knew that you could have thunder, lightning, and a snowstorm at the same time. I was in my early twenties and I had a lot more to learn.
Michigan just had another series of winter thunderstorms this past week although it was a combination of snow and rain. One horrible mess! No school in our entire region yesterday (NW corner of the lower peninsula).
WOW!! That is a lot of stuff to buy. Lol~ how much do you usually spend and do you usually Christmas shop all year? or do you have a set time when you do it all? also do your kids believe in Santa? This is my daughters account BTW. Lol! I don't want you to think you have been talking to a child all this time. as you can see I am binge watching your videos. your family is precious and I enjoy every minute of your videos.
It looks like you guys had a great christmas!!! I know that you guys love games too. Have you ever heard of Telastrantion. I think that is what it is called. They make one where u can have up to 12 players. It is like a mix of the old game telephone and pictionary. It is super fun. :)
It wasn't in a mean way tho, idk why I said annoying,but loud was the right word. Don't get me wrong I live with four other kids at my dads house, I know what loud is. It's just that I can't handle loud noises all at once, sorry if my last comment sounded like a hate comment, I was kind of just trying to relate to it.
I haven't watched this video in awhile, so I don't remember for sure what they got. I know we got them all Google Play gift cards which might be what you saw. Those are for their Google Play accounts on their phones/tablets so they can buy games and apps that cost money.
What a precious, special lady Andrea was 💗💗💗💗
I'm rewatching the Cihristmas videos and this one had me so emotional when Andrea opened the copper mugs from Tom and said I'm happy with just this gift. She was the most caring, sweetest, loving wife and mother who was taken way too soon. Andrea, you are greatly missed! ❤❤
Andrea really knew the key to true happiness.
Oh my what a delightful day this was! Poor papa Gary with the jelly bellys, I hope he is doing well. What fun memories all the kids have of their sweet mother ❤ 💙
I love how the dog is fast asleep. No matter the noise going on. Awesome
What an awesome Mom Andrea was. Precious family.
I wanted to see the children enjoying your traditions Andrea.You put so much thought into each gift.You are irreplaceable.I miss you.🙏💖
The Easy Bake Oven has to be one of the most classic Christmas gifts for a little girl ever. Eden will remember it her whole life. Melted my heart. Great video!
Solomon always enjoys giving gifts more than getting presents..I just love him
I'm only half way done with the video but had to stop and comment. Solomon's little bashful smile when Thomas opened his "To Jesus" gift just melted my heart. What a cute thoughtful thing to do!!! :)
Love watching these old videos
I just loved how Thomas put the key chain gift from Eden on his belt loop, and then Eden looked so happy. He gave her such a gift in that moment.
Your children are so humble ❤❤ it warms my heart. All the kids nowadays just want expensive things for Christmas like phones laptops etc. and Thomas was so happy just to get thumbtacks, that really just warmed my heart.
i am in awe of you. i only have one child and he wears me and my husband out. i dont know where you possibly find the energy. you are raising a beautiful family. i enjoy the videos. thank you for letting us into your lives.
Oh my goodness, Judah's excitement and hope that Papa would get snowed in with you so he would have spend the night...priceless. Thank you for sharing your beautiful family with us.
I love the interaction between your children ..the respect and love they have for each other is so sweet...Great parents raise great children...truly raising children of the Lord...thank you for sharing with everyone.
I love that sweet dog, all the noise didnt seem to bother him, slept right through it!!! He is so pretty.
Andrea Mills, I just love your family! It warms my heart so much to watch your beautiful family. I am a single mum with just one son, and have longed for a large family like yours. I live through your videos of what I have always ached for. Thank you.
Rewatching all the videos, amazing how much the kids have grown!
Claudia was soooo pleased with Justus's card, heartwarming!! 🎉🌲🎊
Justus is so thoughtful! Such a lil gentlemen!
What a precious family and wonderful memories! Eden serving up her easy bake oven treats was so sweet.
These kids are the sweetest
Such a beautiful family 🙏🏻💕
I've only just stumbled across your vlogs and just wanted to say how refreshing it is to see a large family which hasn't compromised quality of life. It is expensive to raise one child well yet you do it with 8 and if I'm not wrong would welcome even more. Also, Judah's expression whenever he opens a gift is I'm sure one almost every parent would want to see during these happy family moments.
mass confusion...I loved every minute...precious memories I was second oldest in a family of 7...I remember...and I am now 52 years...
Your family is so sweet. Kids these days want iPhones and all kinds of expensive toys. Your kids are so thoughtful.
I am watching this with tears rolling.Hilarious tears watching PaPa Gary eating the jelly beans.Sentimental tears watching Andreas reaction to her copper mugs.Her laughter was infectious throughout.God bless the Mills Family as holidays approach.❣️🙏❣️🙏❣️🙏❣️
It was so nice of Eden to share all of her brownies.
It’s not Christmas right now but watching this video brings joy to my heart! I so enjoy watching you and your family! You are truly blessed!
Love your idea of each of the children have a basket to put their goodies in from their stocking!!
We use those baskets for putting away laundry, but they're also perfect for containing Christmas morning abundance.
I can't wait to have children of my own. And watching this makes me want them even more. Me and my husband are just waiting for God to bless us with a bundle of joy. You have a beautiful family. 💛💛
I feel like all my life I was just biding my time until I could be a wife and then a mother. Real life started once I had a baby to nurture. I hope that a little one arrives at your house soon!
what a lovely video! Judah is so excited with his subscribbers! love it!
hansenels1 wait he has a RUclips account what is it?
look for Judah Mills. . .
Your family is amazing and it was so cute how Eden made those brownies for everyone
Solomon makes me smile.
Judah cracks me up!! Thomas and Asher with their "murse"'s lol love ig
i fall more in love with Solomon every video.
merry christmas everyone x
I have been watching your older videos. I don't see how people think your kids don't have individuality. Just watching this shows they do!!
Those jelly beans were entertaining!😀
what a wonderful day..im so glad this one popped up...ugh the jekky beans..my 8 year old grandson always
'tricks" me with those.
I was seriously laughing out loud at your dad trying the jelly beans! I would have not taken any more chances after having one bad bean, but the fact that he kept trying made it even more hilarious! :)
Aww ! Looks like the family had a great day . Sad you couldn't leave but great that your friends could come over for some fun and games . All of your children never seize to amaze me with their kind hearts , wonderful manners , intelligence , funny wit , and their humbleness.

*much more
I see you found me on Facebook so I answered you there. If I come across any other information I'll try to pass it along.
Andrea Mills i would love to be friends on facebook to pick your brain for wisdom .theres a group called large families tricks and tips.
Merry Christmas...🕯
"These are those barf-flavoured beans" "EWWWWW I want one!"😂
and that bin is a great idea for stockings
I don't think I've ever chicken on a video so fast, I'm so excited to watch!
josie knable you were so excited to watch that your wrote chicken instead of clicked! Haha :)
omg I didn't even realize til' you mentioned it. 😂😂😂
And I, as not native speaker, thought "What kind of slang is that? What did I miss?" :D
I enjoyed all your videos. Your children are so precious. Have a blessed New Year.
I really enjoyed this Christmas vid. The kids loved their presents and were very grateful I love how they all share and the jellybeans had me laughing my socks off, thank you so much for sharing your family with us.

Your children have so much Joy! This was fun to watch! TFS!
recently found your channel...I'm binge watching when I can...love it!! :)
I'm surprised that Eden doesn't like hunting for Pokemon with her brothers! Wonderful and generous gifts! Happy New Year!
Those mugs are so nice!! They are Moscow Mule cups or something like that. I hope you all had a lovely Christmas!!
I know you probably get tired of my comments, but just love your family so much, Thanks for blessing us with your videos. So nice all the traditions and ideas you pass on to us.❤️😊🙏🏽 I am going to watch this video early next year to get motivated fo Christmas.

I got so wrapped up in "being" at your house that I thought, "Oh, we're not going to be able to get out and about tomorrow." Then I remembered that it's Dec. 28th today and I live in New York State! ;)
You remind me of my childhood best friend. Great video!
Asher seems grumpy even on xmas day lol lol
The family picture turned out great.
I love this video! Thank you.
I love your Christmas.... I love your snow! We do not get much snow. Or winter for that matter. It looks like it was such a beautiful Christmas!
You all have precious children!!
I had an easy bake oven too, Eden! So much fun
my Christmas routine:wake up go be the alarm for my family go downstairs open stocking when mom or dad gets down finally open presents eat turkey spend time with family then I sleep thank u for watching my christmas routineXD
"I got a man purse!" Hahahahahahahaha 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Lol! I love this video. Merry Christmas all!
Love watching your videos! Eden was such a big girl making her brownies!
Looks like y'all had a great Christmas !
For sure a white Christmas .. wish we could get some snow .. Iam in Alabama so we don't get much around here. Love and blessings.. kiM
Nightowlnursery Yes! nothing but heat in Alabama!! the last 2 years were pretty hot and warm!
What a happy day :) very sweet..happy new year in advance :)
i love the sense of humor that your boys have 😂there so funny, i've only ever seen snow a few times in my life and only once was it snowing, i've always wanted to know what's it like to live in the snow, definitely something on my bucket list :)
tom seemed so excited about the alleged liqirish like thank you...😂😂
I know; I tease him because he doesn't have one of those bubbly personalities and he sometimes comes across as very un-enthused. It's him! The upside is that when he genuinely laughs about something, you _know_ it's funny.
Merry late Christmas love you guys God bless
wonderful event thanks for sharing!!!
beautiful family!
The video I have been waiting for! Hope you all had a very lovely Christmas!
Eden is so cute. The part at 42:19 with the glitter nail polish made me laugh so hard for some reason.
♥️😍
If you search around there is diy mixes for the easy bake ovens ... that use cake mixes etc ..
A lot cheaper to use those boxed Jiffy mixes. That's what my sisters and I used waaaaaay back in the early 70s (the olden days lol) when we got an Easy Bake.
So sweet!
Sophia sure loved her Peppa Pig house. What was the matching card the older boys all got? I loved the Beanboozled tries! Hilarious! Especially your dad... What a good sport. On to Tom's channel for the great unwrapping challenge!
We got the boys each a computer game. Since we bought them on-line there wasn't anything tangible for them to open so we printed pictures of them and wrapped them.
Andrea Mills AHA! That makes sense.
For some reason Justus and eden remind me of each other:) They look alike and seem like they have similar personalities! Andrea, do you hear that a lot?
Yes, some people think they're twins. They actually have the biggest age gap between them than any of my other babies (27 months.)
Andrea Mills Aww! Your kids are so sweet and you and tom are great parents for them!! They sure are lucky to have you guys:)
Andrea Mills your kids are so prescise!! do you ever get irratated with all the noise and talking at the same time? 🤔🤔
Mikela Ebbinkhuysen haha, I know I'm not patient enough to handle it!!
Very nice video.
I love how your kids and Tom love candy so much! Do you?
I enjoy plain chocolate like a Hershey bar, but I don't eat a lot. I don't really like all the sour stuff they do. Last night Tom asked all the kids to stop buying him stuff for awhile (we went to the grocery store and several of them came home with things for him) because his candy stash is getting much too large and he'll never eat it all. He was feeling a little depressed by too much candy! :)
Merry Christmas
The kids look like they had a great time! we have 8 kids too and man our living room looked like a bomb went off!😂😂
Merry Christmas! We had horrible weather. On Christmas Day we had a thunderstorm and then it froze over night. I am not sure I ever remember having a thunderstorm in the winter here in Minnesota.
Someone said there was lightning here, too. I thought I saw some on Christmas Eve when we were out driving and looking at Christmas lights. I thought I was imagining things, but maybe I wasn't!

Michigan just had another series of winter thunderstorms this past week although it was a combination of snow and rain. One horrible mess! No school in our entire region yesterday (NW corner of the lower peninsula).
WOW!! That is a lot of stuff to buy. Lol~ how much do you usually spend and do you usually Christmas shop all year? or do you have a set time when you do it all? also do your kids believe in Santa?

I don't want you to think you have been talking to a child all this time. as you can see I am binge watching your videos. your family is precious and I enjoy every minute of your videos.
It looks like you guys had a great christmas!!! I know that you guys love games too. Have you ever heard of Telastrantion. I think that is what it is called. They make one where u can have up to 12 players. It is like a mix of the old game telephone and pictionary. It is super fun. :)
I've never heard of it; we'll have to check it out!
Andrea Mills Yeah I think you guys would like it. It is so funny!! :)
I wish we had snow on Christmas. I live in a place where we usually have a lot of snow during the winter but this year we didn't have any.
It doesn't feel very Christmas-y on those brown years, does it.
You are a great inspires
It wasn't in a mean way tho, idk why I said annoying,but loud was the right word. Don't get me wrong I live with four other kids at my dads house, I know what loud is. It's just that I can't handle loud noises all at once, sorry if my last comment sounded like a hate comment, I was kind of just trying to relate to it.
Justus and eden look so much alike
What was the card thing the older kids got?
I haven't watched this video in awhile, so I don't remember for sure what they got. I know we got them all Google Play gift cards which might be what you saw. Those are for their Google Play accounts on their phones/tablets so they can buy games and apps that cost money.
