Being an only child without any family remaining, I have to say that the first 7 minutes are what I really miss in my life. So thank you for allowing us (me) to live those moments vicariously through your videos!
Such a fun video! Enjoyed it immensely!
I'm also an only child without family any remaining.
I love these videos so much!❤❤❤
I hope you both adopt some others who need family for the holidays.
I am am only child without any family ... Just my husband and me... This was so enjoyable to watch this lovely family baking together... Anxious to see the Xmas tour of Andrews !
Hope you have a happy thanksgiving! Blessings for you in the new year as well.
I am in my 80s now and this is what I miss-the generations getting together, the cooking, the sampling, the joking, the laughing. These are the memories that keep us warm when we get old. ❤️
Benjamin asking his Mom "Guess who I love?" was the sweetest thing EVER!! I literally shed a tear. What a great kid ! ( and what a great Mom to inspire such a thing !.... Priceless. Made my day. :)
Me too! I had to go back and watch it again. He is absolutely precious!
The fact that you guys really bake the treats that you serve at Andrews for this event each year is amazing. It just goes to show how much you guys love the customers that go into the store. We need more people like you guys.
We love when Laura includes her family in the videos! 🙂
Benjamin stole the 'show' and my heart when he said: He ask the question on who he loved: "YOU"
What a great video! Always enjoy cooking videos and the goodies for the open house....and Moma seems so happy that she is 'healed' and feeling so grand with her girls and Benjamin by her side. Makes me so happy! The arrangement is so PRETTY!!!!
“This mixer does not owe us a dime, it has been in use for 30 years!”
Lol Susan
Kitchen aid is made in Jackson Michigan and they sell replacement parts but even better they refurbish old non-working motors….worth a try at least
You are right…he is the sweetest little boy! “They’re tea towels of course!” What a beautiful floral arrangement! Nice job!
you are so lucky to have such a close bond with your Mom and Sister.. Benjamin and his crystal blue eyes.. he is a keeper.
Her recipes look like mine....lots of years of love.
Your baking together brings back memories. My mom, my sister, my very young niece & I use to get together & make Christmas cookies, all in one day & then divide them. We did that for years. My niece is now 42 yrs old & it's been a few yrs since we've attempted that. My mom is 98, I'm 75, my sister 60 & niece 42. Lots of yrs have passed but the memories are still there for all of us. Thanks for helping to bring back those memories.
Memories are so very important. I am not the grandmother, and I am happiest in the kitchen with my daughters and grandchildren. Something to be very thankful for this Thanksgiving!
God bless all of you & I wish you all a very merry Christmas! ♥️
So wish I could attend! Have a wonderful open house
Their mom is healing up so well! Look at her standing and making cookies all day! ❤
So lovely to see!
I’m watching this in 2023 and wow! I need your alls help when I’m doing cookies!
I’m not saying this to make you sad. Watching this made me tear up. I’ve lost both parents and my siblings. I see the wonderful relationships you have with your family and wish they were mine. You are truly blessed and may God continue to bless you and your family in the days to come! Love your videos!!!❤️
Never really too sure about some kids but my lord Benjamin is a splendid little human! He’s going to be a safe pair of hands for your gardening/landscaping legacy👨🌾
He is so darling and innocent. I pray the world doesn't corrupt him.
I love your handwritten recipes! Every year when I pull the recipe box out, there's the handwriting of many loved women who influenced my life, and their presence is in my kitchen with me.
Hello 👋 I’m really impressed with your comment, if you don’t mind friendship where are you from?
Monica saying lining up the chocolate covered pretzels would be a one sided race, she really doesn't care made me chuckle. Love seeing you ladies together♥
You have such a sweet boy because he has a sweet mama and family. This video made me happy.
Laura, you're truly a flower fairy. The flower arrangement is amazing and you even call Benjamin, bud..❤❤
My first instinct when Laura said “this is the treat table” was to wonder how all those delicious treats were going to fit on that table! But then I remember Laura’s gift for packing planters to the brim and now im not concerned at all! 😅 ❤️ 🍪 🌹
I had the same thought 😁
Benjamin is such a sweet little boy because he is surrounded by sweet and thoughtful adults. 😊♥️
A family that bakes together, stays together. Love it! You ladies are the best! Happy Holiday Open House!! Beautiful flower arrangement and table setting. Excited to see the tour!
That Benjamin is going to make one heck of a good man when he gets older he’s gonna know exactly how to charm the ladies with flowers and chocolate!
Felco was getting some free advertising in the background of the floral arrangement at Andrew’s.
I absolutely love all of your family videos. It’s such a blessing to so many when you share these good times. Please tell your dad that he is an integral part of this blessing and we’re all so happy to see him, too!!
Whoever has been picking the music lately is crushing it!
My mom was a fantastic cook and Baker. She had multiple recipe boxes filled with her recipe cards written in her terrible teeny scribble all up, down and around the cards. During the year after she died, i pulled out my and my sisters favorite 'mom' recipes. I typed them up but also copied the original stained, scribbled cards. Put those chosen recipes together and bound them with inexpensive spiral (one page with original and facing page with typed version). At her memorial service a year later, I put those bound slim recipe books out for my mom's relatives and friends who had come. It turned out to be a wonderful warm memory and conversation starter of great stories. My sisters and I still use that recipe book and often prefer to look at the pages with the original cards on it. Happy memories.
Benjamin is a doll.
👋I’m really impressed with your comment, if you don’t mind friendship where are you from?😊
So grateful that you share your loving family with us. This was the perfect start to Thanksgiving week! ❣
Ditto!!!
Forget about watching “Good Morning America” in the morning…..we all have Garden Answer and her beautiful family! No better way to start the day!
Laura, you can send your Kitchenaid back to the factory, and they will fix it, and make it run like new for you. I send mine in (circa 1960's) every 10 years for them to go over, and make sure it stays in it's prime condition. It's not very expensive, considering new prices to replace them.
Someone sent her a new one a couple of years ago after she mentioned that it was broken. But this is good to know!
I knew that container you found antiquing would be gorgeous! How special for you all to make special treats for your customers. Benjamin is precious! ❤️
You are like identical triplets!
So reminds me of cooking with Mother during the holidays especially. Really miss her. ❤
What a great family day!! Benjamin is priceless❤️👍👏🎉🎄
"You know who I love?" "You".... heart melting!
Thank you for sharing the love of your family with us. I feel the warmth and love between all of you.
Thank you for showing me the possibility of family and the joy it can bring. I have always wished for a family that at least gets along whenever they get together. Now that I'm older I know that will never be possible. Gatherings are always a chore, disputes always arise, and old grievances are always brought up. The holidays are a sad and depressing time for those of us who are never able to come together in peace with our family. Although it will never be possible for my family to unite in a way that is healthy and happy, I want to thank you for showing me that such a thing exists. Thank you for sharing your blessings with us. Happy Thanksgiving, Laura.
Two things…First, I think most families are “bumpy” and this one is an exception. Second, I have noticed that the “bumpiness” is caused by different wave lengths of people’s point of view and not meant to be negative…but it sure seems like that!
@@mollypitcher9380 Thanks so much for your comment. I realized during Thanksgiving that each family member is on a different wavelength, as you say. And I found some time to think about that and celebrate the differences rather than feel remorse over what could have been. Onward!
The best Christmas present my kids said they ever received from me was a binder I put together with all the favorite family recipes! I made notes on each one as to whose favorite it was and where the recipe came from. I also wrote a personal note inside each binder, reminding each child what they loved to eat growing up. The gift itself cost very little, but the time and and effort and joy I got from putting it together was priceless! My adult kids are now enjoying making memories with their own children in their kitchens…makes my heart feel good!
Your arrangement and the snack table looks absolutely beautiful! Well done ladies! That was a lot of hard work, and I know the customers at Andrews just loved them!!
My mom and I always make Christmas cookies together every year. She is in the heaven. Been 6 years. Hit me very hard when you guys making the cookies. Miss my mom very much.
Such a joy to see this family time, & Benjamin is such a love.
Hello 👋 I’m really impressed with your comment, if you don’t mind friendship where are you from?
Celebrate, celebrate your family and friends. We celebrate with you watching your parents, siblings, and other family members. The holidays are challenging for many of us, but your youtubes bring so much love, light, and happy memories for us all. Happy
Thanksgiving and we look forward to your Christmas videos. Peace and so much happiness.
I have to complement Aaron in his choice of background music! It always adds so much to the presentations, especially during the seasons! 🎶🌲
When your mom summed up all the goodies she made I got sooooo hungry 🤣🤣🤣 oops… I just noticed I drooled 🫣🤭😂
It’s like tinker bell is on your moms shirt at 4:40 🧚♀️ adding to the magic of the day…
I saw that too. Definitely added to the magic of the day.😍
I love going back and watching previous videos. I don't have a system, sometimes I search for something I'm looking for, like roses and sometimes its whatever comes up. Thank you for doing a great service for people like me that can't get out much anymore. I really wish we had a garden center like your family's. I could spend a week in there! Thank you!
Benjamin is a happy little boy.
I melt like butter when Benjamin says, know who I love? You.
My mother passed away a couple of weeks ago and way to young and out of nowhere. It really helps me seeing you with yours. It’s very obvious you and your mom have a special relationship… ❤
So sad for you at this time of year. Blessings
Oh my sympathies to you and your family.. So hard to lose people we love and especially around holiday times. Sigh. Hope eventually the sweet memories will linger longer than the sad.
Please take care.
Laura, nice to see you, your Mom & Monica making delectable treats for your Garden Center Holiday Open House. Wish I was there to see your beautiful Garden Center in Oregon! Well, maybe one day!
You have such a sweet son because he’s being raised around some of the sweetest ladies around! I love watching you interact with your mama and sister. He is the direct result of good parents. Kudos to you for being good examples for your sweet kiddos. ❤
So enjoyed today's video! As you said slower pace has been so awesome. Benjamin is winner!
It's been a year. I'm revisiting videos from last year just to get in the mood. The shut down kept families apart, and last year was the first time in two years my kids and grandkids came for the traditional Christmas dinner. I have great grand babies now. Children are the best part of any Holiday. Laura and her family can get you in the mood an inspire you to get it done. Love her creativity in decorating. I know she will soon be doing her Christmas decor pretty soon now. She's into getting her fall done. Plus maybe going back will help her channel. I noticed it let me do a thumbs up,tho I have watched it before, never miss a video.
Oh my goodness! I used to have that old pink Tupperware! Wish I still did.
💚 💜 All in niceness, I'd be waiting at my door for that smile of Benjamins! When my kids were little my mom didn't even ecknowledg me when she would be at her door helping us in. L0l omy I love your dad's beacon!!!!
Beautiful arrangement, as usual, Laura. I loved seeing you and Monica and Mom baking...with Benjamin taste testing. What a perfect, fun day!
When Laura mentioned the trees holding their leaves...Yes! My daughter and I had that same conversation yesterday! (Western Washington State) Now I can say Laura said the same thing! The Holiday Open House will be so fun! Benjamin is a sweetheart.
I was just talking yesterday to my daughter about the same thing. I'm in zone 7 and nice to know that we are not the only one
Yes, I live SW Idaho, about 30 minutes from Laura, and I have noticed the same thing this year. We have had a lot more color in the leaves than usual and also the trees are hanging onto their leaves more than usual. I don’t know why, but I have really enjoyed it!
Yesterday I had the same conversation with my daughter about the beautiful color everywhere. I think its because the temps have been dipping down much earlier for us than our usual January here in zone 9b. We still have leaves on many of the trees so it has been an incredible show! Love the family videos.
We have noticed the same thing in the Willamette Valley (Western Oregon).
Me too. And I’ve heard others comment about it on yt
You don't know how you got such a sweet boy ????????? You and Aaron's love and role modeling OF COURSE !!!!!
Nothing more precious than handwritten recipes! Laminate them so they are preserved longer. (Maybe run copies, too, and laminate for each family.) It has worked well for my go to recipes. The arrangement and family baking was a special treat.
Oh the memories you stirred in me. My momma used to bake the peanut butter blossom cookies every year for Christmas. An the divinity she made was so delicious. I also remember her trying to make pie crust but while my great grandmother was alive she'd push mom aside and take over. She did make the best pies. I still can remember the day mom pulled out the last pie granny made. Mom cried knowing that we would be having the last pie.
Wishing you and the family a blessed Thanksgiving. 🥧🥮🦃🍁🍂🍪🧡
I really enjoy seeing more of Monica and getting to know her. It would be wonderful if you shared the family recipes. 😊
You can pause and take a picture of the screen. Laura indicated you could do that by pausing the camera over them 🙂
What a fun day and I love Monica said Pioneer Woman of course. I’m a fan of her and Monica.
You ironed the top of the table cloth then covered it with the tea towels. Lol. Another beautiful Laura flower arrangement. Cookies are making me hungry.
I enjoy watching videos that help me relax, when I feel stressed or just need peace & quiet. I enjoy watching these videos on this channel as well. Thanks, for sharing. You all look & sound alike with the same mannerisms as well. 👌🎄.
I love this type of video & my daughter who is almost 8 loves seeing Benjamin! We love watching your videos together.
Attended Andrew’s Open House and boy was rearrangement beautiful! Monica’s divinity surprisingly not too sweet….Yummo!
Laura, your mom should talk to Kitchen-Aid tell them that the Wisk broke, and they sometime will send out another one. And you should laminate your recipes so they will last. I laminate all mine and then put them in a binder, (all of them under what they are, like desserts candy) (Sorry i'm a Virgo. I Can't help it.) everything looks so good. Pretty flowers. thanks for sharing.
You’re right Laura on the leaves taking longer to fall this year. It’s so nice to see you, Monica and your mom baking cookies and preparing for the open house. Benjamin is such a pleasure to see and my heart melted when he told you he loved you. Beautiful arrangement you made! Love it!
I'm glad you mentioned that the leaves are hanging on longer this year and it's not just me. I noticed it in Olympia because they are usually totally gone by this late in November. What a fun family tradition! Always enjoy behind-the-scenes stuff. Happy Thanksgiving! 🍁🍁🥨💯😍🎄🎄
What a great day. That is what I miss doing with my Mom. I am digging out all my recipes and baking today. Thanks for sharing and inspiring.
Great video. Family baking together. The arrangement is beautiful. ! Benjamin is precious.....
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Everything about that was precious! I appreciate you sharing personal stuff, that was awfully nice of you to do!
Good morning Laura and Benjamin!!! Many fun memories made on this day!!! Hugs from N.C.. You know who we love Benjamin? YOU!!!❤️
I am so excited to see the Christmas tour of Andrews! Thank you, Laura (& Aaron) for sharing so much joy with us. Your time is recognized & appreciated. ❤️🎄🦌❤️
That boy..... Oh my goodness. ❤️
Hi 👋 I’m really impressed with your comment, if you don’t mind friendship please were are you from?
Oh, what a sweet son you have ❤.
I love seeing your different personalities come out in how you laid out the chocolate-covered pretzels!
I have a boy like Benjamin but he’s a teenager now… it really is the best! Sweet, always polite and helpful (99% of the time!) and loves his momma!
Hello I’m really impressed with your comment, if you don’t mind friendship please were are you from?
The personality differences between Laura and Monica show when they’re lining up their chocolate covered pretzels 🤣🤣
I had to go back and review after reading your comment. What a difference. Laura obviously does her best in the garden
@@carolynwhylie8605 when my twins bake with me, it’s the same way. One has to have lines with perfect diagonals, the other is just loving her life and setting things down where it’s practical.
I'm like Monica 😁 I have to have things organized 🤷♀️ my sis in law always has to ask me how want things cut or done 🥰
I was going to comment the same thing! ❤️
I Absolutely Loved that part.
Seeing you in front of the felco display at Andrew's reminds me to thank you for your felco discussion in a previous video. I suffer from tendinitis in my thumbs and it's aggravated by using clippers. I purchased the felco 12s and I love them! They are a game changer! Thank you, thank you, I never knew these existed, they are so comfortable and easy on my hand. Wishing you and your lovely family a blessed Thanksgiving.
One of the things I absolutely love about your channel is seeing the dynamic between your family. It's beautiful!! I share the same deep bonds and connections with my parents and sister, but we all live in different states, so seeing you all together so often fills my heart with joy. What a precious gift!! God has truly blessed you all ❤️❤️❤️
Hello I’m really impressed with your comment, if you don’t mind friendship please were are you from?
Benjamin is the absolute sweetest little boy ever created. Makes my day even better hearing his wee lil voice 💘
This video reminded me of the open house that my wife and I had every Christmas. She generally made about 200 dozen cookies to serve at the open house and then to give as gifts as people left. I remember taking the wrappers off of hundreds of chocolate kisses for the Peanut Butter Blossoms. This video got me ready for Christmas.
Thanks for sharing your wonderful family with us. Thoroughly enjoyed this 👌 video.

How fun spending a baking day with your family!!! I miss those days with my mom❤️!!! The table looks great for the treats!!! The flower arrangement looks gorgeous!!!!! 💙💙💙💙💙
ok Kitchen Aid (Whirlpool Corporations), that was a great plug for your product, mixer is over 30 years old!
I'm grateful for Garden Answer & Family!
BEAUTIFUL family ❤ we need your GOODNESS and we are so BLESSED that you share your wonderful life with us 🌟 thank you 🎄
It is so relaxing for me to watch you cutting branches and leaves in the garden. I really enjoyed your family time baking too. Thank you for sharing. I can almost smell the peanut butter blossoms. Yum!!
Needing a LOVE button for this vlog. Watching you ladies work together to make homemade goodies for the open house is heartwarming. And sweet Benjamin is a joy.
You are so lucky to have a wonderful family who loves to spend time together. I laughed at Monica's statement of it would be a one-sided competition. I have the same personality.
Hey Lura what does your amazing family think of you as a famous RUclipsr who gardens?❤
there have been some pumpkin recipes failures here in Canada because the ED Smith cans have been changed and now one of the top 3 ingredients is water (replacing oil) so know they are super watery and they didn't let consumers know, the only way you know is to look at the ingredients list! i know this sounds crazy but my cheesecake didn't bake and i don't want it to happen to anyone else!
Such a great shot of Benjamin and Laura for the thumbnail. Benjamin is so sweet and adorable throughout this video. All the treats look so yummy.
Good morning, ☕️ How fun! Benjamin is such a ham; love him🥰 Have a Blessed Day 😊🐈
Oh my gosh, the recipes look like my Grams and great Aunts I have. I however, have no one who loves tradition. You are all so blessed.
Have you considered helping Monica start a cooking channel? That would be so much fun!!!!
Hello 👋 I’m really impressed with your comment, if you don’t mind friendship please were are you from?
Oh gosh, I really wanted that pumpkin bars recipe, but there was more instruction on the back that we couldn't see. I just love those recipes that are handed down through the generations and cherished like precious family heirlooms. Can you post the recipe somehow?
They're the best kids. So sweet!
Benjamin is not only sweet, but smart. He knew where all the goodies was going to be!!
Fun but now you teased us! I wanted to see the garden center all decorated! Can't wait for tomorrow.
You also inspired me to make cookies again for this Christmas. I was on the fence about it but I think I'll do it!
🇨🇦What a beautiful lovely family. You all are so blessed to have each other.🎄☃️❄️💖
