    I’m blown away with everything you’re handling this month, merchandise launch, random acts of kindness, video’s, shopping and on and on. Today’s random acts is such a Blessing for those women. Bert’s Mom is amazing, the love she has for you all is special.

    Aw I so loved the kids shopping on a budget with money they earned that is exactly what my boys do. 😁🤗 So important to teach these things ❤ I also really liked the shelter ideas I think I will go do that tomorrow. Great ideas great video and as always the best music, anytime I click onto one of your guys videos my kids come running from wherever they are in the house to watch and they know by the music when I am watching you guys. I think it is so cute I wish I could record it and send to you guys. Happy Monday. Sending our love from Anchorage Alaska,
    Tschandra & Family

    Flying to Alaska tomorrow for Christmas with our daughter and family. Wish I could go to North Pole but only going to Wasilla. I really hate the dark up there.

    Our church is buying for foster kids this year. I picked a 15 yr old girl and I am enjoying buying for her. We did it last year too and the kids loved it! We did find out what their interests are so it’s easier to buy for them. I just love these vlogs and the Somers family.

    Y'all are great .. I also didn't do so well with Christmas gifts this year. I'm usually done by 1st Nov. My 2 kids only get presents( more than $5 ) for Christmas and birthdays , so we try to do a little at a time through out the year. I love giving to places like shelters ECT. One year (before I had kids) I actually did 13 salvation army - tree angles. I love doing things like that.

    I used to get it done early. As my kids have gotten older it's harder to plan to far head. I start collecting gift cards so I have the money to buy in December. Works for us right now.

  • @gingerclark3438
    @gingerclark3438 Před 4 lety +1

    ❄️This is the first year that I was able to do all my Christmas shopping online and I have to say I will never do it any other way again! Not only did I save a ton of money but I only had to pay shipping one time and that was eight dollars for something that I got for free with my Kohl’s cash. I didn’t have to stand in one line or be in any traffic, it got sent straight to my door. On top of all of that every item I spent was on sale, you can find more items on sale online and then you do in the store.🎁
