omg the bedtime routine is the #1 recommendation I have for any couples with kids! I don't know how else we would be as close as we are without that.

I worked on a military base in Europe decades ago. I told my boss I could wrap gifts. When she saw my packages, that was my only job during the Christmas season. People gave me tips, I have OCD, so it has to be perfect. It comes in handy for cleaning and laundry, my favorites. Weird I know! You did great!

I’ve needed this wrapping motivation! Almost done 😰. We don’t put any presents for the kids until Christmas morning, partly because I have an almost 2 year old who is wild, but it’s been a tradition since my 13 year old was born because it’s been a tradition of my husband when he was little too! I love seeing the tree skirt go from bare to full ❤

The kiddos have been asking to wrap presents. I let them wrap their friends and dads yesterday. After about 2 or 3 they were complaining their back hurt etc 😆. Not as fun as they thought! Trying to move from California to Alabama. With 6 animals, the dynamics are seriously hard! Thanks for the vlogmas! Omgoodness you answered my questions! Thank you

Ashley....a tip for wrapping. Get a long price of ribbon (4 or 5 feet long) tie your sizzors on one end and tape/pen on the other. Just drape it around your neck. Everything is at arms reach.

I wrap less and less. I use those gift boxes with pictures of Santa and candy canes. I even leave the tags on them from the year before and try to put gifts for the same name as last year. I do the same with gift bags. I’m lazy😬

We always have Ham for Christmas eve dinner with all kinds of sides like Thanksgiving. My in-laws do Christmas day & always do chicken & dumplings. We put all the gifts out b4 hand and Santa brings the gifts that are unwrapped around the tree Christmas morning. Breakfast is pancakes in little Christmas shapes, bacon, sausage, eggs, grits & hashbrowns 😋

In response to your information about starting a KZitem channel. I don't have one. I'm not interested in starting one but I love to watch the videos and typically what I do is when I find someone that I really like. I watch every channel they have whether it's cleaning whether it's vlogging whether it's meal prep, whatever it is, I watch them all. So not only do you get me as a subscriber on one channel you get me as a subscriber on every channel. Love to watch these they are so motivating.

We have been sick here, too. The whole coughing, runny nose, fever. Ugh! I do almost all the wrapping at our house, too. And, yes, the more expensive thicker paper is definitely worth it. I got some Pioneer Woman paper this year, and it was so nice. I suck at wrapping, tho! I always hope it's the thought that counts. 😉 My husband will have to wrap the big stuff because I really can't wrap the big boxes. I am not sure what we will make for Christmas dinner yet. My friend makes us Irish Cream and we drink that Christmas morning and that's my fave! I never want to do a total sober Christmas morning again. 😂 My kids are grown now, so they don't mind if Mom is a but tipsy. ♡

Hope you are feeling better! You really pushed through n this vlog and wrapping presents. Bless you. Our tradition is we go to my mom's house on Christmas Eve. Christmas eve is our big event vs the day is more relaxed. Mom makes her famous oven baked pork shoulder (seasoned days before) and it bakes for at last 4-5 hours basting it w/the juices to keep it from drying. It's so good. Also she makes a turkey, her famous potato salad, rice and beans, a simple salad and tons of desserts. My Sister usually makes homemade flan and we'll have a chocolate cake, cookies, candies. Yum. Glad to hear all your stories, responses and a few of my ?s made it in the video (I love cake too 🤭). I'm big on wrapping and I'll make it as beautiful with ribbon, adding bells, an ornament, or cranberry sticks with greenery to adorn the gift. I want whomever I'm gifting to feel excited at first glance of their gift. It's not about impression. I want them to see the love and thought put into their gift. Merry Everything, Happy Holidays and Happy 2023! Enjoy your time off from YT. Thanks as always Ashley! 🎅🏽🎄👍🏼 🎁
