Loved all the winter weather you captured, but goodness knows it’s no fun to drive in. I learned to drive in the winter in Ohio and I still remember how scary that is on icy roads. Hope you’ve enjoyed quality time with your family this Christmas. ♥️
Hi Krista - ❄️ - I am glad that you made it to your mom’s safely. The painting your dad made is really beautiful! I hope you and your family had a blessed Christmas week. Thank you for another wonderful vlog! ❄️🩵❄️
I just bought my first pair of Pair. They’re wonderful!!! The sizing was amazing! I took them out of the box, put them on, and went my way. No adjustments needed. I haven’t bought any toppers yet;I’m hoping for another big sale. So exciting!!!!
Merry Christmas! Oh my gosh, my husband just started doing Spanish through Duolingo. I have most recently joined in and doing the Spanish exercises with him. It's so fun! Of course, we both had Spanish class in high school back 30 years ago but it's fun relearning things we had forgotten.
I really enjoy Duolingo. I am not sure how good it's helping me to be, but hopefully with practice I'll increase my Spanish speaking ability! haha. I like that it's sort of like a game.
I can totally relate. The snow is so beautiful, but I am NOT a fan of driving in it...or the cold...or when it all turns brown. Ugh. haha. It is nice to have a white Christmas though. Merry Christmas to you and yours!
Merry Christmas, Krista! I live in Colorado, and love looking at the snow, but hate shoveling and driving in it! We didn't have a white Christmas this year, but it was still a blessed one with family.
Wow, the snow is amazing! South Australia where I live never gets snow,and I dream of being in the snow as it falls on me😊. Tomorrow is Christmas Day and being summer it will be almost 100 degrees. So good. Happy Christmas Krista and every blessing for 2025.
I always thought that it would be odd to live in Australia where it's summer and most Christmas-associated things center around winter themes--snowmen, angels in the snow, etc. Happy summer!
Merry Christmas, Krista! Glad you made it to your mom's safely! The snow is so beautiful. I wish we got more of it here in the South. I know you weren't but the prospective of the video looked like you were flying down that snowy road! 😅I hope you and your family have a very blessed Christmas and a happy New Year. Oh, those were guineas making that noise. ❄☃❄
❄☃🎄❄❄🎄🎄☃☃ merry christmas to you and yours!! - we didn't get that snow (up here in Maine) over the weekend - but very, very cold air - snowing lightly this morning ( christmas eve ). safe travels home to you!
I don't have a car so I'm not often impacted by driving in inclement weather That snow sure looks pretty to me and would put me more in the holiday spirit. I'm down in D.C. - closer to where you actually live. No snow here! I'm traveling soon to the Philadelphia area. Maybe there will be something going on there but whatever was happening over the weekend probably melted very quickly. Have a great holiday!
Your snowy environment looks amazing, and chilly(!) - we’re prepping Christmas fare in 77 degF down here in NZ today. Have a lovely Christmas with your mom!
Hi Krista. Love your Hoodie pretty color..Glad you stop when u need too instead of trying to push on . ❤Take care b safe.We use to put bread wrappers in our boots to keep warmer and dry..winter wonderland there..cu soon Happy Holiday glad you're with family..
Merry Christmas Krista! I don’t know where the snow came from last Friday and Saturday. They were calling for less than an inch.......uh, we have at least a half foot here in the finger lakes too. But the kids are excited and happy🥰the snow is pretty if you can stay in. Aww, the kids Christmas church program is so adorable. And the tree is gorgeous. Safe travels❤️🎄💚
Thank you Krista! I’m glad you made it to your mother’s home safe and sound. Please hug your loved ones (and yourself) from me. Merry Christmas to all. 🎄
The snow was so beautiful, I hope you have a wonderful time with you family, and that you have a Merry Christmas! Thanks for always adding joy to my life through your videos!!! ❄🌨☃
Your neighbor has guineas! My son has the and they are very interesting birds. Look like 5hey come from the dinosaur times! They’re not very smart but very fun to watch! Enjoy your time with your mom. Merry Christmas.
My great-grandmother, who I never met, was Jenny Baird. Anytime I hear the author's name Ginny Baird, it makes my ears really perk up lol. Yay for getting more NetGalley books done! Merry Christmas, Krista!
Merry Christmas Krista! I often watch your videos on my tv so am not often able to comment but I just wanted you to know I continue to love your channel and look forward to all your adventures in 2025!❄️
Sorry, didn't realize this was A continuing vlog...hence, the first comment. My brain is dizzy this morn; only 3+ hrs. into the day and major problems already! This was wonderful!! Really enjoyed, thanks Krista and Merry Christmas!🤗
Hi looks very pretty but also don’t like driving in snow either. Love how beautiful it is though. Love your moms place❤. How did you end up in Virginia assuming you grew up living there in NY with your family?
Thank goodness we are getting more light again in the norther hemisphere! ☀️☃️
I am so glad. All the days are now getting longer and longer. I'm here for it!!
Loved all the winter weather you captured, but goodness knows it’s no fun to drive in. I learned to drive in the winter in Ohio and I still remember how scary that is on icy roads. Hope you’ve enjoyed quality time with your family this Christmas. ♥️
Thankfully it mostly went away (at least on the roads) before my drive back to VA.
Hi Krista - ❄️ - I am glad that you made it to your mom’s safely. The painting your dad made is really beautiful! I hope you and your family had a blessed Christmas week. Thank you for another wonderful vlog!

Thanks for always watching and being so encouraging! Happy New Year!
@@BooksAndJamsYour reply touched my heart!
Happy New Year Krista!🥰
I just bought my first pair of Pair. They’re wonderful!!! The sizing was amazing! I took them out of the box, put them on, and went my way. No adjustments needed. I haven’t bought any toppers yet;I’m hoping for another big sale.
So exciting!!!!
Glad you like them! I am loving mine and have my eye on a few more toppers.
I WILL TAKE THE SNOW KRISTA! 🤣❄️
I would happily send you some if I could. ❄️

I have a love/hate relationship with snow ❄️. But it is beautiful! Merry Christmas to you and your family!

I'm with you on the shoveling and driving...Hope you had a wonderful Christmas!

Yikes that's a hot Christmas! Hard to imagine. Praying it's a wonderful day for you and yours. Merry Christmas.
Welcome back to snowy Oswego County where we got a lot of snow and not even in a snow advisory. And dang it is cold🥶☃️❄️🙂❤️
Haha. Right? It was SO cold for a few days.
Merry Christmas, Krista! Glad you made it to your mom's safely! The snow is so beautiful. I wish we got more of it here in the South.

Merry Christmas, Terri! I was the passenger so I could film. My mom is much more used to driving in snow than me. It's been a while. haha.
I live here in upstate N.Y. enjoying the beautiful winter landscape🎇💙🤗
It is very beautiful for sure.
Love your weekend vlogs! Happy Blessed Christmas! ❤🤗🌲📚🎆🎇🎀
Merry Christmas to you too!
I hope you had a great Christmas and get home safely.
Thanks, Theresa. Hope you had a wonderful day as well.
What a wonderful vlog 🫶🏻 gorgeous footage!
Thanks so much!
❄️ 🏔 Merry Christmas ❄️ 🏔
Merry Merry Christmas!
Catching up on your videos while nursing a cold! Hope that you had a wonderful holiday!
Hope you're feeling better soon!
❄️the snow looks so pretty!
It is...from inside the window! haha.
Oh, I do NOT miss shoveling snow! Aww, but I definitely miss my mom! So glad you're having a good visit.❄
Shoveling is good exercise! haha. We are staying in for the most part. I'm just glad it's supposed to warm up before I head home next weekend.
Merry christmas Kristy🙏🏻🎄✨🌟❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️
Merry Christmas to you and yours as well.
Nice video, esp. of all that snow! I grew up in Rochester, NY, and they get a *ton* of lake-effect snow every year!
I lived outside Rochester for a few years too. Lake effect is still a thing where my mom lives now too. Not my fave, but pretty to see out the window.
❄☃🎄❄❄🎄🎄☃☃ merry christmas to you and yours!! - we didn't get that snow (up here in Maine) over the weekend - but very, very cold air - snowing lightly this morning ( christmas eve ). safe travels home to you!
Yay for a bit of snow for Christmas. I hope you have a wonderful holiday with your loved ones. Merry Christmas.

I do like having a white Christmas, but won't be sad if that's all I see this year. haha. Merry Christmas!
Added all your books to my tbr. They sound great! While You Were Sleeping is one of my favorite movies of all time. ❄️
I love it. It's been a good reading weekend.
Have a very happy Christmas, Krista ❄❄❄
Same to you! Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas, Krista!! I love all the snow. It will not be a white Christmas in our area this year. ❄️
Merry Christmas Debbie. Yeah, probably won't be in VA either. It will be nice...as long as I don't have to go out! haha
Wow looks so cold!! So fun watching football together and reading and just being cozy😊One other thing I try to do on long drives too is pray.😊
Yes, it was a cold, but cozy weekend. I do a lot of praying while driving as well.
❄hi! I hope you had a lovely Christmas!
Thanks, Rainey!

Haha. Love it!

Hi looks very pretty but also don’t like driving in snow either. Love how beautiful it is though. Love your moms place❤. How did you end up in Virginia assuming you grew up living there in NY with your family?
I grew up in NY but then lived in PA and MA for a bit. Wanted to move where there was less snow! haha.
Chickens Krista!! They yell when they are laying an egg.
They were so loud! haha.
❄️❄️❄️❤
❄️❄️❄️❤😊

Sounds like geese at your mom's neighbors.
I just know they were loud!
