Bennett looks so much like his Dad… I never realized how much until this video. Hunter looks just like you.

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

Bennett does look exactly like Mark and Hunter looks a lot like me. Weston is a perfect mixture of the two of us. We will see who Everett favors as he gets older but I think he might look a lot like Hunter!

At 11:48 “what I would like to happen is that I Would have twin girls so they would have each other!” LAUREN, ask and you shall receive!!!! Yes & AMEN! I was like oh my gosh I have to comment this!!!! lol 😂❤😂❤😂❤

[@laurab4413]

I always lose my scissors, tape, or pen to write on the gift tags when I wrap presents. Half the time I wrap on my bed, and they fall on the floor and under the bed where I finally find them. Cousins gifts are a great idea. It is nice to have that extended family so close.

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

The scissors, tape and pen really have a way of running off during wrapping! Thank you so much for watching!!

I love that your kids have such great palates. Its nice to see kids trying new things

They really are good eaters. Not sure what we did right for that to happen but we do give them lots of opportunities to eat good food from a very young age. Happy New Year Colleen!

[@kikomartin-pr]

I’ve been binge watching your channel since I found it, it’s easy to see you all are down to earth. It’s also easy to see that you all truly love each other. You’re a wonderful mother and wife and Mark seems to be a wonderful father and husband.

[@adamhutchings2446]

“We’d probably have 5 kids by now if Covid didn’t happen”. I get that statement so much. We found out we were pregnant in January of 2020 and it was about 6 months earlier than we had planned. But if it didn’t happen then we probably wouldn’t have tried because of Covid. We know Heavenly Father made that decision for us because he knew we had to do it then or not at all.

Thank goodness God stepped in! Crazy to look back on how things fall into place

Hi Hunter, dream big young man, being a Pilot can be an awesome career and take you on many adventures. So glad you like getting presents and cards from us viewer's and we have loved making Friends with you also. Thankyou for allowing Mum to be in her office and for understanding that it does take time away from you. I also loved Social Studies at school but Math not so much. Thankyou for sharing 🙂

I haven't had to wrap any presents in a few years, but boy, this made me tired just watching you wrap all of yours. Enjoyed hearing all the answers from the kids and yourself.

[@pamelasanders5657]

Such a great video to get to know you all better. I chuckled when your son (I think it was Hunter)said that one of the negatives of filming is being quiet because of his three brothers and then he pointed to Everett needing some assistance from Mom. 😊💕. Your boys are very mature and understand a lot. Of course, they are still rambunctious boys too which is great. Boy mom here too. You are so much more patient than I was when my sons were little (youngest is 16 now). Just think of what your Costco bill will be with teens. It’s all good though! It’s all fun stages and you have hunters and fishermen so you’ll be good with proteins. Love your channel!

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

Thank you Pamela! I am not always patient with them but I try my best! They are 100% boys and I try to enjoy all the crazy along with their sweetness! The Costco bill is going to be quite large I imagine as they continue to grow and eat more and more! Thanks you so much for being part of this community!

We wrap gifts for our Bunny Benjamin, every time he sees a gift for someone's Birthday or Christmas he thinks it's for him lol. Pets are totally part of the family!

[@marcellahicks3984]

Why is it when your wrapping presents the scissors always walk across the room. I can't believe you held it together wrapping and answering questions. This was so much fun. I bet you learned a lot. I always think that in answering a question about yourself you have a clearer vision of what's important. It pays to be flexible because things change. I think FAITH is a good foundation. Having a means to check in with who you are is a great practice. Thanks for sharing. Can't Wait to see Weston play Chess. That is a great camping activity

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

Thanks Marcella! The boys are ALL loving the new chess set. It has been a fun addition to our Christmas break, that and trying to solve Rubix cubes. Having to answer questions is a good way to check in and reflect. I love looking back and seeing God's hand in it all!

[@marcellahicks3984]

I really love how you said that, watching God's hand in it all. You said that in the video, thanks for reminding me. I don't know how many times I fall and that comes to my mind. But when I hear someone else say it , it reminds me how much I love to hear those words. That would be a great quote on a sign. So humbling

[@melissaporterfield2732]

Y’all are awesome. Everett is the best blog videographer 😉😊 I had 5 boys. I always wished I had one more so the baby would have a close in age sibling. I think the boys would love to have one or two more siblings. Thanks for sharing y’all’s lives with us. Hope all is well.

My mom worked really hard for retirement. She wanted to travel after retirement. She got hurt on the job just a few years before retirement. She is severely and permanently disabled. She can't go anywhere she wanted to. She wasted her whole life working toward something she could never enjoy. My husband got injured on the job at the age of 31 (just 4 years after my mom) and became totally disabled. Thankfully we were able to travel with his work. But our life is very limited with his disability. Through this God has really brought to light the verse that says do not put off for tomorrow what you can do today. Or don't say tomorrow I will go, for you do not know what tomorrow holds. Since this I have met many people who worked their whole life and never made it and were so full of regret. I always tell people to live for today. Because tomorrow isn't promised

Hi Lauren I love the story on how you and Mark meet. You never had a honeymoon? Also you are wrapping presents but I didn’t see you put any names on the gifts?

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

Our honeymoon was driving from Utah to Alaska after my student teaching. We drove the California coast and took the Ferry from Canada to Alaska. It was great! I used different paper for each kid and made piles, later I put their names on them!

[@brilliantbutblue]

Lauren l am so sorry for the loss of your brother Brad, what an awful thing to go through at such a young age and a terrible loss for your parents, thankyou for sharing this with us. I can totally relate to the bond with your Dad, my Dad is my entire reason for living and we are both very much alike, he has shaped who l am today through his gentle calm parenting. I treasure every single moment with him as l am sure you do also. Gosh you have dated more guys than l have lol and yet here l am single🤭. I really enjoyed this video and getting to know you and the boys more. Thankyou 🥰

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

Thank you Vanessa. His passing is my first vivid memory as a child. I actually remember a lot from that time and I hold it close. Moving to Alaska really brought me and my Dad close and I am really grateful for it. He became my best friend when I had none. I know you can relate. I know your kindness and love make your dad proud. Lots of love ❤️

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

Thanks for watching! I will try and make sure we see all the kids throughout the year! Thanks for your kind words about my brother. His death and funeral are some of my first vivid memories as a child. They left a big impression on me, even at such a young age. Tea and coffee are what are specified in the Word of Wisdom ( the revelation to our church on what foods to avoid) because of their addictive properties.

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

YUM!

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

Those gummy bears are the best but you are right, they are addictive! So soft and such great flavors. That reminds me, I bought some for Christmas, now where did I put them??? That and the Toberlerone bars never made it out???? Mark gets Russian Christmas off because a lot of the Alaska Natives are Russian Orthodox so we will have to find all the presents I hid and bring them out for that I guess!!

I always put wrapping off until the last possible minute. It’s the only part of Christmas I really dislike

[@marcellahicks3984]

I am terrible at wrapping. And I don't have a huge space or table to wrap on. My Dad would recycle old paper by cutting into smaller pieces so they were ready for next year. He had them labeled small medium and large. He would tell my Mom what they were low on. They store it with the Christmas decorations. They had 14 kids. They had to have a system. And they waited. But my Dad had a workshop in the basement. He took off the week of Christmas. No one went downstairs. He would stay down there for hours listening to Christmas music. The only time he came up was when we were jumping and running so hard, he could see the floor boards shake. He loved that job.

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

I kept everyone’s presents in the same paper and stacked them in a pile and then labeled them before I took them upstairs! Thankfully no mixups.

[@gregramirez2935]

The difference between you and other KZbinrs is the fact that your husband did not quit his job and concentrate in making his income on KZbin. People need to take that as an example instead of showing and praising people who only rely on KZbin and then take advantage of their kids to make money off of them. You don’t do that. Also, when there are times when a family is up or down, that is being a real family and not a fake family that a lot of people on KZbin portray. Therefore, you’re doing a great job. As for Everett, he was pure entertainment when it comes to going to that Sam’s or Costco.

[@cathyleeper1365]
