      Certainly the Dads. 1st they prepared everything, 2nd they played with their kids, 3rd they edited the video and 4th they'll be able to show their grandchildren. LOVE, LIVE, LEARN n LAUGH MAC

      @@mogumogu2024 Yes, you are correct. This goes for children raised by same sex parents or opposite sex parents. Parenting is hard and children do make their own choices as they go through life. I suspect Burton and Dustin and other straight and gay parents understand this.

    Durston,
    Love the “Dad jokes”, Burton. You’ve got them down for sure. That darn Ginger really messed up your walls. I would have just left him there and framed him in a picture. Lol.
    Your kids are really enjoying the magic of the holiday with Santa and gingerbread houses. But, what I really enjoyed in this video was watching the two of you get a little “slap happy” at night with Gingerbread. You guys need to do some more videos of just the two of you once in a while, too! I love seeing both of your kids, but to see you guys be silly with each other was so much fun, too!
    See you guys next week! And as always, stay safe, happy and healthy.
    Love you guys!

  • @churchathome9552
    @churchathome9552 3 года назад +2

    Anyone else notice how nicely decorated the house is? Every item including the furniture is perfectly placed... like it’s out of Architectural Digest. I catch myself rewinding parts a lot just to look in the background.. I keep eyeing things and think to myself “that’s a good idea for that certain spot in my house.” That’s a BEAUTIFUL home for one beautiful family!

    My personal tradition is to always stop at the downtown department store and through the main display window, I watch children talk to Santa. It always gets to my feels, even at 68 years old. Because of quarantine, that tradition is not available. So, watching Holland and Stone "zooming" with Santa has given me another chance to see the magic of the meeting. Just great kids. Just great parents. Merry Christmas to all of you.
