"Tiny Christmas tree. Poop bucket. What more do you need???" - that was so cute! The cats were cute. Yes, Amber should put out another video. We want more Amber.
My My Matthew your country is so truly beautiful. And you are so great at showing your country to us all. I'm your Michigander, geriatric, in the best shape of my life at 65 follower. I'm in Michigan and really should have gotten myself to Canada before the catastrophic flu 😼🤔 struck. I honestly cannot recall the last time I had a cold, much less a flu. I pray for all of us, in every breathing area on this Earth that we can in some small way have a Blessed 2023. I want that for you, Brooklyn, Penny, Stella, Amber and all of your loved ones Matthew......Hello Amber!! Be well my friends, Be Safe but most of all Be Joyful everyday ☃️🔥🔥✨😻💙💞
Penny has fans! Of course she does. I love the way she looks at you. Your kitties love you so much! And that's a testament to who you are. I'm glad you had a peaceful Christmas with your friend. I emphasize good times with friends more and more every year as we all get older and our lives change accordingly. I hope the New Year brings you much joy and success in everything you choose to do! Meow!
I live in Sydney Australia, so am sweltering in hot, humid weather. Your videos of Snow covered woods are pure magic to me. I hope one day I can experience a northern winter & Christmas. Thank you for sharing your van life experiences & especially your lucky kitty cats with us. Wishing you a Merry Christmas & exciting NY ahead. Xx (p.s. the gn in gnocchi are pronounced like the n in onions. Hope that helps).
I don't care how far past Christmas you are, this video was perfect as far as putting me in the Christmas mood. The music was as perfect as the scenery! I'm sorry you got your van stuck though! That sucks! At least you had good company!
hi Matt, much enjoyed your xmas in Banff. Beautiful shots and scenery. Must say Penny and Stella stole the show and are now celebs. Love you gals!!! Happy 2023. look forward to your next vid.🍺🐱
Matt & Amber Merry X mas! Though 😢Matt laughingly begrudges freezing a part of his anatomy off, the picture of the feast was wonderful. We all have holidays that don’t go totally according to plan, yet the memories are always some of the best joy will have. The scenic forests & snow, the cold that bites at your nose, a tow truck to make it complete, I guarantee this picture is going to be great in the next ten years. Happy Holidays All! Lindsey- I wish I had a cousin like you! Sydney Happy 2023! Penny & Stella stay healthy & stealthy! See you both in 2023!
This video included some of the most beautiful shots I have seen off the Banff area ever! you really outdid yourself with this video, everything about it was so perfect and a merry Christmas to you, and I guess after tomorrow I happy new year. thank you for all the months of fun and letting us join you on your journey. 🎄
Hey Matthew and Amber, have a Happy New Year. I’m just posting this now on the 30th since you might not post another video before then (Amber, there’s always hope) I love your channel Matthew and Amber it’s always a treat when you pop in to a video. Oh and wishing the same to the two furry critters.
Your videos are wonderful Matthew! I can see why you love that area. The scenery is gorgeous and you do a wonderful job of documenting it. I am so glad I discovered your channel and look forward to your videos. Happy New Year! 🍺🎉
Well that was fun. And a funny coincidence - as your opening sequence, feeding kitty, I saw the Moonstruck DVD in the background; Husband and I happen to be watching it right now 😊
Happy New Year! Enjoy seeing Amber and you having fun! You seem to be jabbing at Amber to release some content on her channel!! Can’t wait til she gets rolling smoothly with much success!! Love Stella and Penny too!!
The only thing missing is Lindsey and Sadie. I think Lindsey needs a van for weekend excursions with you and Amber. Everyone needs a Lindsey in their life. Your videos with her are some of my favorites. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, since I’m watching this on December 31st.
Don’t worry, there are plenty more camping trips planned for 2023 and there might even be a surprise in store that is within the realm of what you mentioned
I agree with you Nancy, missing Lindsey and Sadie, they're both so lovely and support Matthew in an unconditional manner. Very refreshing in this day and age!😊
Pray 🙏 that I'm able to Get my Service Dog Soon, ohh 😮 I love the Christmas music 🎶!! Anywho I Started my Build Today.. 🙌🙌 I'll be sharing my journey along the Way. Much love & Blessings for You, Your family & Precious Furry Copanions...🥳🥳🥳
... simplified your living situation, and even your Christmas has been distilled down to its essence: good friends, shared food, lovely scenery, and best of all: positivity! Thanks for making a difficult year much better!!! Best wishes to you all from Cathy in “warm” rainy Oregon. 🌧
Sweet Christmas! Great shot of Penny with a beautiful background and yourself on the lookout point 😁 happy holidays and many blessings to you 🙏🎄🙏 Happy New year 🎉
Matt you are very fortunate to witness such beautiful surroundings not just on Christmas Day but any day you travel around Canada, it’s such a beautiful country and continue to show us more and more. Love from across the pond x 🏴🇬🇧
Banff has always been so picturesque all year round! nice to see kitties had some fans ("do they bite???"....lol) great way to spend Christmas day with a friend, drinking hot chocolate, in Banff - that's true Albertans right there
Ok Matthew, tht 1st scene when the video just started OMG, tht was absolutely FREAKING EPIC dude 💯 U guys have some of the most beautiful views tht I’ve ever seen 🥰 and when ur using the chocolate bombs ur also supposed to add the hot chocolate powder to the cup unless ur using ur Kuerig to make it then u just make a regular cup of hot chocolate and then u drop the bomb into it. Thts the way I’ve always used them, 😁 ok hope u folks r staying warm, & Happy New Year 🎆🥳 🐈🫶
Love your video vlogs, Matt. I want to visit Banff now it looks amazing, I was surprised the water was flowing. Hope you Amber, Stella and Penny had a great Christmas. Made me laugh when you said to Amber, oh! your filming a video, when's it coming out March! 🤣 Oh dear those chocolate bombs, sugar highs 🤪 It's good to have company for Christmas 🎄 🎅⛄️❄️
So cute video... I'm sure it's awful to celebrate Christmas alone, and I'm happy to see you finding party for this year (at least). We're still just people, and we need company/socialization to keep being sane. And to be happy.
You and Amber had a very very nice Christmas through my eyes!! Wow the views....still don't understand the attraction to the dessert....other the warmth 🤣 Merry Christmas & Happy New Year's to you, Amber & kitty's🍾🥂
I was just at the Village of Value today, and I found a set of two wool blankets, which can be used on a bed, or tacked up on walls for insulation. Vanlifers, don’t forget thrift stores. They were bright coloured plaid, so of course my thought was, ‘how to make Dixxons camo.’😁
Sharing Christmas day in a stunning landscape looked amazing. Chocolate bomb's with milk but water? I bet you were cold camp site fire definitely needed 🙂 I wish you the best for 2023 & here's hoping to see more videos from Amber. Take care everyone and drive safe 🎉🎶
Absolutely wonderful video! Good food, good people, good kitties! Loved how you decorated between the vans. Wishing you, Amber, Penny, & Stella a very Happy New Year ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Awwwwww! Stella❤ She sooo won my heart the second i saw her. We lost our little(15lb) boy in 2023. My husband was crushed! They were so close😢
I love the "REAL-NESS!" thanku I know it. Takes "ALOT !" ( your giving alot of us alot of inspiration and hope !!!

I would say cousin Mathew has a girlfriend LOL or maybe a friend with benefits
@@MHdollrevievs or maybe just very good friends. Guys and gals can be just friends you know!😊
So freaking amazing...that first shot is jaw dropping!
Another one worth making a 1500 piece puzzle of.
Happy New Year gorgeous girl!💖
@@TheLeopardGirl Happy New Year's!
Happy New Year everybody , have fun, be safe and don't drink and drive!!
Ditto!
Amen to that.
You have a great friend in Amber.
Wish Matt, Amber, Penny, and Stella safe passage from 2022 to 2023. May good things happen to you next year :)
Thank-You so much for the Beautiful Views of Canada's winter landscape.

@tinaattinyducks. Absolutely 💯 😺
My Christmas just got beat out by a guy with a tree on a poop bucket serving chunks in yellow sauce. I really need to step up my holiday game.
🤣🤣
😅😅😂😂 a year and another Christmas later. Praying for a better year in 2024🎉
What a beautiful place. Looks like the kiddies got soft food. Must have been a special Christmas treat.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year everyone!🎉🎉🎉
Happy New Year Sweetie!💖

Banff is simply breathtaking need to add that to the bucket list. As for Penny and Stella happy to be the PR rep.
Happy New Year Sweetie!💖
Happy new year. Love the kitty's. Amber is so cool!!!
Hey, Amber! I'd sure like to see your perspective on these adventures with Matthew.
Fans for Penny and Stella. Your a good friend to Amber at least you had each other for Christmas 🎄
wow , that scene when you sweep the snow off your roof with that epic mountain in the background 😯❤️
So fun that fans came to take photos of Stella and Penny! Beautiful Christmas Day video!

Penny just wants food!! Divas!! 😏
You are lucky McDonalds was open. And I am glad you and Amber got to share it together.
I am glad you and Amber got to share Christmas together. That is the most important thing. All the shopping stuff is empty.
Lol at the reaction of those girls to the kittens. 😁 I'm glad you have Amber to spend the holidays with. 🤗

Magnificent scenery. This video chilled my ass out, so thank you. Nature just soothes the soul, mine at least. Much appreciated.
The candy cane spoons are brilliant! What a perfect idea. Chocolate bombs are the vinb. Yummy
Happy New Year Sweetie!!💖
Glad you and Amber were able to spend Christmas together. Hug the kitties for me. Happy New Year's Eve Eve. Stay blessed and stay warm.
"its pure sugar" had me laughing hard.

Look forward to these videos. A great POSITIVE way to end the day.😁
My Christmas was very lonely and sad, especially without my doggy. Terrible snow storm and horrible winds, with wind chill of -33!
May your new year bring you fairer weather and a heart full of new love 🐾
Matthew, I think this was one of your best videos yet, on all levels. I love how you have
