A lot of you asked if I would share some of the ways I stuff my stocking for our kids every year at Christmas time. While I can’t share exactly what I’m putting in them this year, I can give you the overall idea of how I do this to make it super fun for them! We’ll also whip up a batch of amazing Cinnamon Rolls, and I’ll share with you some of the traditions we have as a family around Christmas.

I love your guys! You guys are amazing! I'm starting canning and I been watching a lot of your videos to help me
I also watch "Little Village Homestead" when she makes her cinnamon rolls, she takes the loose ends of the dough and puts it under the bottom of the rolls, this way when they bake it stays in place.
Every Christmas we go over to our grandparents and eat monkey bread and then open presents
Looks delicious
This is one of the best videos! Love hearing the stories and traditions!
How big would you say your stockings are? You've motivated me to bring stockings back. We pretty much quit with our youngest being 19.
How many children do you have??? Great stocking ideas. Thanks
Dollar Tree works for me for stocking stuffers,😄😁
Merry Christmas to you and your family!!!!
Oh my gosh, I LOVE that stocking. Cute ones like that are hard to find in Alaska!
You have such a beautiful family. How many children are in your clan? I've got three young ones and Christmas is wonderful chaos.
Lovely video. My favorite tradition was always singing happy birthday to Jesus before coming out to see the tree and all the presents. We’ve always done one person at a time opening gifts, from youngest to oldest. We’re staying with my parents this year with our two young children and I’m really looking forward to waking up there Christmas morning and seeing them experience the same things I did as a child.
Thanks for sharing! need to try that cinnamon roll recipe! Merry Christmas!!
I thought… “maybe she’s figured out a way to incorporate her softened butter in the sugar” when I saw you dumping the sugar on, because your brown sugar is SO DARK, it HAD to have butter in it….because I would be making cinnamon buns right now if that were the case.
Happy Holidays!
Oh I love your family traditions, and the cinnamon buns look great, Merry Christmas to you and your family🎅🤶🧑🎄
I watched this twice just to gleam every tip, every good idea, and all the Christmas joy you have. Thank you for being an inspiration! It's made me so excited for Christmas. And I'm definitely stealing ideas from you!!
I want a stocking from Rachel. I haven't got a stocking since I was a kid. I love the thought and effort that you put in to them.
Loved hearing about your traditions as a child and with your kids. This past year and a half hasn't been a very good one for our family so we will be skipping Christmas for the first time ever.
We have many traditions since I was a kid. My mom was a single parent with two kids that made the very best of every Christmas as much as she could. My BEST memories of Christmas was when she always would save all kinds of food boxes to put our presents in. We would get a present on Christmas Eve and on Christmas morning we would open up our presents to get a box of "stuffing, macaroni and cheese, cereal, crackers" or others because she couldn't afford fancy boxes or All the pretty trimmings. We always made a joke about wondering what kind of food box we would get under the tree. We grew up poor but felt the richest in life because my mom always made sure that we had what we needed and she worked her butt off for it. We did Go together as a family to find a real Christmas tree and my mom would always choose one of those pine trees that was very short and dumpy with the soft pine needles that poked you. We would put it up together and decorate it together. But one tradition that didn't stick around was the Christmas pickle. We tried it for a few years but it didn't stay around. I have tried it with my kids and it really hasn't stuck. The only thing I do different is that I usually have about 9 to 12 trees of all sizes decorated in my house. I even have a tree on my front porch that gets decorated a few times a year with different items because it's not just a Christmas tree. It's a year around tree. I usually sit back and watch everybody else open up their things because I like taking photos to see what everybody gets. Some of us adults watch one person or two people open up their items at a time. I still have a young child that likes to rip through everything. We just let him go and we don't really get to see what he gets. My brother used to do the same thing when he was a kid. It would literally take him 3.5 seconds to open everything up. He would speed through every item, look at it and toss it to the side. My mom never even had a chance to watch him or get photos because he was always done before me. I took my time opening my gifts so my mom could enjoy watching us open our things. My Christmas's were the best as a child and I hope I made my kids's Christmas the best I possibly could. My husband and I used to do the shopping together when our kids were little, but he kind of faded out as a years went on. I do all of the shopping for my family, our kids and his family.
That was a magical vlog, Rachelle; thanks for sharing! Your family sounds like they love the fun & traditions! We haven't had many traditions other than to get together to eat with our some of our kids on Christmas. I used to decorate a lot but now that I'm in my 7th decade, I don't want to bring everything out each year. Our kids don't traditionally stay over at Christmas anymore because they live too far away. I'm hoping that some day one of them will have a big enough house to host us all! Merry Christmas & Happy New Year blessings to your family!
We do different playing cards some years
Ohhhh loved this video ❤! Was such fun to hear your traditions and see you magically stuff that stocking! Sending love and joy to you and your family!! xoxo
