Love how Dillian walks in looks and closes door back 🤣🤣

'The Year the Kids Stole Christmas' might just end up being one of the best stories you'll tell later in life. I would have cried too at first though. Great video! Happy New Year!

That is a bonding moment for the siblings they will never forget!

Love Dylan walking in, assessing the situation and like NOPE, starts shutting the door slowly, like maybe you won't notice!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

As an ex chef, never, ever put pots and pans or Knives in the dishwasher. Just a tip from me. I watch so many KZfaq creators do this and I’m like NO don’t do it. And always rinse the dishes before you put them in the dishwasher. Hubs used to repair appliances on the side, oh the gross horror stories he’d tell me 🙄Dorene Weiss

A tip with the Christmas tree. Once you get the tree home, make a fresh cut on the trunk again before putting it in the stand. I was told a film forms over the trunk once it is cut and it won't soak up the water.

Happy New Year. I liked how Dylan just slowly closed the door and went back outside when you spilled the bucket. Haha such a guy move- love it!

Dillion opens the door sees all that water . Dillion then leaves back out the door lol . But seriously I see that he truly helps you with all the big stuff all the time . Great video . 💖

This home refresh video was just what I needed to kick off the new year! The decluttering and organizing tips were super practical and watching the Christmas decor come down gave me the motivation to tidy up my own space.

OMG I lol'd.. They will talk about this for their entire lives though :)

Looks great! And it warms my heart that I'm not the only one who gets soaked when i wash dishes. 😆😆😆

Dylan's slow exit as you run around panicking over the spilled mop water🤣🤣🤣

When I was 3 we slept over at my grandmas and all the presents were there they woke up to me saying que lo habrá que lo habra (open it open it ) over and over as to cheering myself on to open all the gifts 🤣 I ended up opening everyone’s gifts , my cousins were pretty mad the adults were laughing and in shocked and to this day as a 31 year old I’m still reminded of it .

Omg I would CRY if my kids opened all the gifts without me. 😂 My oldest is 12 so it means a lot to me to hold onto all the magic for my other 3 littles ones. I like getting my organizers from TJmax! I've heard not to put pots and pans in the dishwasher either but I do most of the time. 😅 especially when the dishes are overflowing and I feel overwhelmed, I just put it all in the dishwasher, like no girl BYE. 😂😂😂

😂 love how Dillon slowly closes thr door and goes back to business...exactly what my husband would have done. 😅❤ so glad to have you back. Hope you had an enjoyable vacation!

So proud of you. You have come so far. You have a lot of talent and determination. Keep going

We had the most overwhelming amount of clothes for the 2 of us. Last spring I adopted a 5 item per clothing category system. My husband had over 30 nasty work T-shirts. He has a laundry service for work. He didn't need that many. With the 5 item limit we discovered not only was I not doing 10 loads of laundry per week but our walk in closet can actually be walked in to!

This video is like having a decluttering buddy guiding you through the process. The down-to-earth approach and effective organization tips make it enjoyable to watch and witnessing the Christmas decor come down feels like a fresh beginning for a more organized and welcoming home in 2024.

Hahahahaha Dylan sees the water on the floor and just strolls back outside. My husband would have done the same thing. 😂

My son got all his toys to room to open his presents n l was so mad. I told him l love to watch him open them.

Me and hubby had a good laugh for kids being ahead with present time😂😂😂😂you house look great. Everything of the best for🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 2024

I love how after you spilled the dirty mop water Dillon comes in and you were like, "help!" And Dillon backed out of the door and slowly closed it! 😂

I laughed so hard at your grinch comment as we thought of bringing the grinch to my son who is my most stubborn guy. We have never been through that but I can see it coming now that you mentioned it lol I would have cried too..

We really enforced stockings only until Mom and Dad came out to open the wrapped presents; we hung the stockings when we put up Christmas, then on Christmas Eve, when all the kids were sound asleep (we made sure to go out and be really active that day like tubing, swimming, hiking, so we would have exhausted kiddies that night), then we would stuff their stockings and put them under the tree leaning against their unwrapped Santa gift- these they could crazy with until we woke up; we made sure what was in the stockings were things to occupy their minds and hands like mini Lego’s, small puzzles, a book or coloring book, their favorite piece of fruit and a small package of their favorite candy. Hint for the tree, when you get it home and ready to put it in the stand, cut the bottom of the trunk at a slight angle, this opens the pores again so it can absorb water, if you don’t, then that old cut part has “scabbed” over and prevents water being absorbed- hence extremely dead and dry tree. My house just got de-Christmased and I am waiting until next weekend to start redecorating but making sure I leave space for Valentines Day decor in a few weeks so I am not always putting up and taking down over the next few months.

Believe it or not some of the nice packaging thats sturdy boxes. Like shoe boxes. Or anything actually that fits in a drawer, I use inside for “ seperation “ purposes. Does the job. Ive even used that acrylic looking container that ferrero roches hazelnut chocolates come in 🤣

Growing up my parents had a Christmas morning rule that nobody would enter the living room until my parents went in first. Then we talked about the birth of Christ, and the reason we celebrate Christmas. Years later I realized that this allowed me parents to get the best view of our reaction to the joy of seeing our gifts. Now with my own children one Christmas my daughter just had a checklist reaction like yeah I got this I got that and that was odd for her. Later on she admitted that she had already looked at all of the presents before waking anyone up. So I know that feeling of disappointment.

You are so funny. I move stuff around everyday. We have a big island in the kitchen,it’s a hot mess. I clean it off and then have messes everywhere else. One thing I might suggest it when you get something out put it away where it goes. That has really helped me .

I was a single mom to my son when he was small, so he slept with me. I didn’t wake up before him to set out Santa gifts. He thought Santa didn’t come! It was awful then I told him maybe he went to a different room so we went to the spare bedroom and there it all was. He was so confused on why Santa went to that bedroom instead of putting his gifts under our Christmas tree. We definitely look back and laugh now! 😂

😱🥳😳OH MY GOODNESS! I can’t believe the kids opened ALL their gifts! It was funny…🤣you showing the footage however it was an upset because you didn’t get to see their faces when they opened and were super happy!❤. Never know what children will do when they are EXCITED! I am glad SANTA was good to them!🤣🎄🤭Real trees are AWESOME however the clean up is a chore!🙃 GREAT VIDEO! HAPPY NEW YEAR!🎉 What a bummer…you dropped your mop water on that clean completed floor!🫣 Your home looks GREAT and FRESH! Ready for 2024 EPISODES!👍

I had Revere for 20 years and my mother has had her for almost 70years. I have had different frying pans. They are very good.

I buy a real tree every year too. I put a bottle of sprite or 7 up in the stand. I've noticed that when I don't do this the tree doesn't drink as much water and dies sooner. If I have left over plant food from fresh flowers I'll put that in there also.

I always put my appointments in my phone and set the timer for the day before so ot reminds me.

The house looks great, always nice to get Christmas put away. Love your story about the kids opening gifts. One good thing they were quiet to let you and Dylan sleep through it.😂 Happy New Year Karrie 🥳

Wow, girl. You knocked it out. Sorry about what happened with the kids. 😢 I would have cried, too. But it makes for a memory, and I bet it won't happen again 😊

Try wrapping a sheet around the tree when you move it outside! 😊 It will cut down on the needles making a path through your house! 🩵

Omg I can’t believe the kids did that!! 😂😂🤦🏻‍♀️

You are back! Yay!

My son did that on his 3rd birthday I literally burst into tears in front of him and felt so bad about letting him see how upset I was. He didnt get it at all he was just thrilled with his gifts 😂 My daughter woke up at 3am saying santas been thankfully because of that I said we can’t go down yet it’s still the middle of the night and Santas still busy so we need to go back to sleep. Amazingly she did go back to sleep!

I told this to Kelly from Kelly's Korner n I'm telling you also. You're so relatable for your content but also because you don't have a mega mansion that you clean. Your like the average person n we relate to you because of that. Have a great New Year. We'll be here.

lol, I loved Dillon's response to the spilled water. Happy New Year, looking forward to your videos.

Love how hubby just calmly walks out. I feel your pain

Looks great!

I'm originally from England and back then you'd leave a pillow case at the end of your bed and Father Christmas would fill it in the night. My brother and I would always wake up at some crazy early hour and he would have me drag my full pillowcase into his room and we'd open our presents while my parents slept. It was so magical and I have such fun memories of that so don't feel too sad about it, it'll most likely go down as one of the most fun Christmas' your kids have ever had!

I love all the organizational containers ❤

Yay a great way to start the year with a video from you!! Happy new year!!! ❤

My mom would have been so mad 😂 I would have got a whooping 😂😂😂 I love y'all ❤

The story about the kids opening the gifts is hilarious! I understood why you laughed and cried!!

Omg! That is so funny the kids opening their gifts.

Happy New Year xxx

congrats!!!! Happy to see what 2024 has in store for you!

Great Job Karrie!

You can buy tree preserver usually Lowe’s or home depot will have it and you add it into the water … we bought our tree after thanksgiving and just took it down on the 31st … ❤

Dont have that problem anymore my kids are all grown so now I have to make a mess just to have something to do !!! LOL

So much for getting help from Dylan. House looks AWESOME ♥️

Happy New year Karrie ❤

Happy New Year Karrie. So happy too see you❤️

Thank you for posting today!!! HAPPY NEW YEAR!! Love, love, love your channel !!!!

Happy New Year!

Awwww....I think it's cute what the kids did...lol. I remember so many years ago I had stayed up late wrapping and putting the girls stuff together and they woke me up in the middle of the night and I made them go back to sleep and to this day it hurts me so much to remember that I made my babies go back to sleep when they were so excited... 😭 It truly does hurt to even remember that...I would give anything to take that back

So next Christmas....Santa talked to the Easter Bunny and they decided that their presents should be hidden like eggs 😃

I am sure someone already told you. But right before you put the tree in the stand you do a quick fresh cut because the sap seals the trunk and it won’t absorb water otherwise. Love all your story’s the Kids had a great time I’m sure. Did they share it with you LOL so cute.

Happy new years to you and your family ❤

Happy new year

Happy New Year 🎉

Happy new year. Loving your content and can’t wait for more. Lots of love xx

Happy New Year

You go girl

I hope you and your family had an amazing Christmas and new years!!!

Happy New year 🎉

Happy New Year 🎆

Happy New Year to you Karrie and your family!!

Happy New Year 🥳

I’m so glad you’re back. The kids opening their gifts in the early morning, oh my. I know y’all were disappointed but it will definitely be something to remember and talk about. We use to get a real tree but my son and I have allergies; so we just opt for a fake tree now. As far as the comment about you watering the tree. lol I’m sure y’all did and we use to water ours all the time and it almost did not matter, if we did. Like you said, the tree is cut so not to much you can do there. Some people just always have to have something to say. Sorry you got those rude comments. You calling her out Susan lol 😝. Buying stuff around Black Friday is cheaper. That’s exactly what we do. That’s what would definitely happen to me with the mop bucket. Dylan coming in and shutting the door, lol! Priceless 😝Y’all’s home is just beautiful and cozy. You and your husband work well together and your kids are just precious. I wish you and your family tons of happiness and success. I enjoy all your videos. I can’t wait to see what you have in store for the new year. Thanks for sharing. Take Care and God Bless. Happy New Year!!! 😊🥰❤️

Happy New Year Karrie and Dylan and your two babies and God bless

You are amazing ❤

Happy Nee Year thanks for all the motivation cleaning and self care!

Happy New Year 🥂

Happy new Year Karrie, your home looks great!

What a lovely surprise, smiling right through, happy new year xx

Happy new year 🎆 I’m looking forward to one more year with you ❤

Happy New year 🎊🎆

You look great, Karrie.❤ Happy New Year.

Happy New Year!🎉 Your house is beautiful!

Thank you… it looks great… Happy New Year….

I had a niece and nephew that did the same, opened every gift under the tree!

So happy I found your channel a few months ago...you give me inspiration! ❤ Happy New year!!

Great cleaning video!! The towel walking, have had to do this many times in my life. lol. Love that your husband at least helped cleanup the pine needles. But slid quietly back out the front door when the bucket spilled. Teehee!! And your dog is so sweet!!

Good work, karrie. Happy new year

Happy new Year karrie Lynn I hope that U had a great one can't wait to see what another year brings us ❤

I watched you decorate your mantle and shelves, and it seems like cleaning it all up went much quicker! You kept moving things around when setting it all up. And bang, a few weeks later, you have to clean it all up! I love keeping it simple for the first week of January too. It looks bare but feels so good to deep clean. Someone I know posted a comment on Instagram that in Ireland, they open up their back door to sweep out the year, and open the front door at the same time, to bring in the new year. I love that!

So happy for you that you had wonderful Christmas with your family we have miss you thankyou for all your great videos can't wait to see what you have for this year😊❤
