When Christopher went into Let’s talk about what we learned today, I actually squealed with delight out loud. I’m 45 years old. I’m ok with it. 💕

[@brodeecrossing4545]

Good for you bud

[@andiegirl3702]

I totally get it. My 30 year old self immediately got a little choked up when he did that. I hope he keeps it up, it’s comforting.

[@melissawilson3106]

I am 54 years young. I love anything the ballinger family shares.

[@melissawilson3106]

I am 54 and feel the same.

[@kathyquinn3220]

Duncan's method of eating his pumpkin pie with a fork was priceless. And little Luke finishing his Thanksgiving meal was precious.

[@lunagrace5239]

After they made the video of her telling people something was wrong during pregnancy, and then the one with the diagnosis, nothing has made me happier than seeing lil Luke doing sooo good. They really stimulate his mind and they love him so much .....it is so satisfying to see him at 12 months so happy, strong, alert, playful. It warms the heart and it makes you feel grateful. I know the time and love they put into his development makes all the difference. God bless them and their kids

[@christopherarokoyo7050]

I don't. Rearly like you I don't like you I only like

[@CaitlynAlice]

“Grandpa, we’re not playing with fire anymore...” “What?” Duncan forever cracks me up!

[@sxr_dnd]

i think duncan meant about when jacob burnt the marshmellow

[@rani.amberr]

@@sxr_dnd the person above was quoting Duncan, then what Tim said. they weren’t questioning what Duncan said lol.

[@kysondarren460]

instaBlaster.

[@queenjray]

I wish I had a man that looked at me the way Christopher looks at you! YOU GUYS ARE AMAZING!!! I love you and your family so much!

[@SamanthaMFranco]

“Hi, lets talk about what we learned today” HE SAID THE THING!!!!!

[@ApeEscape7]

I know I was so excited! It used to be my favorite part and I was so sad when he stopped doing it

[@SamanthaMFranco]

It makes me cherish it more when he does little breaks and brings it back every now and then 🙌🏻

[@pineappledinosinspace]

When Bailey says she is thankful no one in their family got covid 😭❤

[@KatieSparkles]

Me: “YEEESS!” And getting so excited when the “let’s talk about what we learned today” song comes on 😊💖

[@carmenvvz]

Me too!! I seriously almost cried of happiness

[@Saarah_Junaid]

It's been ages such a throw baaaack!

[@hannahbannana1820]

Omg me too that was always my favorite part of the old vlogs I'm so so happy it's back

[@benjamingoss971]

I legit shouted and got yelled at for shouting

[@sophieghaffari9006]

Hehee

[@chloehodge8969]

This channel Colleen vlogs, Colleen Ballinger,Rachel vlogs, Rachel Ballinger are my favorites of all time because when I’m bored or sad they make me so happy

[@ainsleystott1925]

don’t forget miranda!

[@pineappledinosinspace]

Plus the podcasts

[@erikaNmarkieb]

The way Christopher looks at Jessica... my heart

[@AinsleeDawn]

Duncan 100% stole the show. 😂 Falling off the foam cube when Luke was eating. Walking back to zoom like, we’re done playing with fire! Using the fork to eat the pie, like a pizza. 😂😂😂 ETA: THE BONE. 😂 Omg creepy Santa!

[@LosingYouNever]

im crying at just flynn by himself with a truck hahahha

[@matthewmoore2631]

Luke’s little smile when he saw the family was the purest most perfect moment ever 💚😭

[@hlm872]

There needs to be a Ballinger Family Cookbook. All of you contribute!

[@samanthatierney6728]

This right here everyone, is one of the very few family channels who does not show weird or unnecessary things regarding their kids. We all need to appreciate the Ballinger’s ♥️♥️

[@jessx306]

I’m in my mid 20s and do not enjoy cooking 😬 It warms my heart to see how much the kids love to help in the kitchen!

[@kelsey1999]

Yes creepy santa, yes advent calendar starting soon, yes LTAWWLT coming back, yes to eating pie like Duncan, and yes to VLOGMAS

[@clairenichols4049]

they will single handedly save 2020, I'm calling it 😂

[@erinturner9983]

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeessssssssssssss

[@clairenichols4049]

I cant get over how big luke is getting!! When parker was carrying him down the stairs he looked like such a big kid!!

[@arianna5879]

duncan is such a character

[@AverytheCubanAmerican]

Ah, so nice to hear the Vlogmas intro again

[@varunavi4587]

im so excited for this year’s vlogmas!! I love you guys

[@greenglenda433]

I love that the "lets talk about what we learned today" is back!!!

[@1bzymom.Of2Kids]

Our family wasn't able to afford the extra cost of food for Thanksgiving. But I'm thankful that we have any food..period! 😁

[@jessicastacey9058]

Nice to meet you Faith, Hope you are feeling happy, safe and loved with the Ballingers (im sure you are having a fab time) Happy Thanksgiving to you all - I’m very thankful for your family doing vlogmas 😊 with love from Jess in the UK 🇬🇧🥰

[@hollynicole4533]

Bailey is the sweetest human being ever.... She is literally amazing. Props to mom and dad for having such amazing kids! They are all so sweet and caring... Also all of them helping out in the kitchen and being in charge of their own meals..... I adored it 🥺❤️

[@oogahboogahzoogah]

Duncan eating the pie with a fork was my favorite part seconded by LTAWWLT

[@UltimateVixxen]

I’m so happy it’s Vlogmas time. Days with no Ballinger Family videos don’t feel complete, at least to me. They’re part of my night routine and company when I can’t sleep. It’s something I genuinely look forward to all day. I’ve enjoyed the more regular uploads lately and I do believe the positivity of everyone helps with my mental health. Super grateful ❤️

[@Karijones14]

I spent thanksgiving alone this year (still made a feast though). I'm thankful for you guys making me feel less alone in a year when I've lived in a different state than my family and friends.

[@katabrams5566]

This feels like a hug after a bad day and a long week. I’m so so happy Vlogmas is here 🥰 and that CHRIS BROUGHT BACK LETS TALK ABOUT WHAT WE LEARNED TODAY ❤️

[@1111ampm]

so good seeing boys learning to cook so many family vlogs, you see the girls helping and the boys sitting away fun times thank you for sharing

[@melissaw6446]

I'm thankful for Luke's chin dimple...it's everything!

[@AlexisVanity]

I love this family, with a big part of my heart. I can never get bored of you guys. I love binge watching to the point where videos play of when Bailey was tiny. 🖤🖤🖤

[@KarlaEmmerson]

Feels like the hot sauce calendar was just last month.

[@elizajensen]

I vote for a Ballinger Family recipe book!! I really want to know how to make the grey stuff and the hashbrown casserole. Also, I appreciate that you actually make the cranberry sauce, instead of just opening a can of that jellied crap and calling it good.

[@alwayshelen2055]

They should include the corn casserole too!

[@emmac8867]

Bailey has grown so much omg, i do love her so much

[@erinbee123]

Jessica making her vegetarian gravy and taste testing is a Thanksgiving tradition and I’m so glad they film it every year!

[@christinastroup5630]

Loved this so much and the creepy Santa at the end just brought it all together. Love you Ballinger family and I am so thankful that you have allowed us to be a part of your family for so many years. Ive been here since Parker was in diapers and it feels like just yesterday!!!

[@MoreThanJustSkinDeep]

I would looooove to know Jessica’s vegetarian gravy recipe!!!

[@itsedenn]

she has shared it in a few previous thanksgiving vlogs!

[@carmenvvz]

Thank you for bringing lets talk about what we learn today!! I really love it! It made me so happy! A huge smile appeared!

[@Bailster]

Awwwwww - Jess was so sleepy in the beginning and had no idea why! And now, the reason is already almost a week old. 💙☺️

[@evelyne-h9090]

that's exactly what I was thinking too😊

[@katpinksherry5151]

Do your children ever “misbehave” they always seem so civilised and kind to each other. You family remind me of my nieces and nephew who are the most delightful children.

[@brentaltm]

They do seem very polite. But I'm sure we're only getting a fraction of their day. They have probably have many meltdowns as well that we don't see :)

[@Phiwoofficial]

She took a nap as someone who doesn’t take naps, now that Teddy is here, it all makes sense 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@zntenn]

Jessica: I'm thankful for ..babbles for 10 min Christopher: *jeez* LET'S EAT!

[@dumisalengwati3068]

Jacob's personality (and features) remind me so much of his aunt Rachel 😂

[@ileanamarie7177]

I just find it amazing that your kids cook at such a young age when my mom tried to get my brothers and I to cook but we were just lazy and didn’t start to help until after 18

[@vickytaylor9155]

I am grateful for the whole Ballinger family, especially Duncan who makes me smile every time.

[@hannahrobbins3226]

Jessica, my orange juice can the same way yesterday and it took me so long to try and put the lid on I ended up putting in the fridge with no lid!😂😂😂😂

[@Courtney983]

Happy thanksgiving Ballinger Fam!! I’m thankful for your family and how often you vlog. You have brought me a lot of joy and laughs. Jess- love that red lip on you. You’re a stunner 😍😍

[@kittyhedley2350]

I sacrificed some really important school stuff and dance competitions But I’m so glad that I did because it kept everyone safe and healthy throughout this horrible horrible thing we have to go to go through and mental health has suffered and lots of other things have gone on but I’m so grateful that the majority of my family and friends survived this ordeal

[@naty.yaps.alot2]

I love how when Duncan was talking Bailey slowly look at him 🤣🤣🤣🤣 23:48

[@dickson8088]

Am I the only one that thinks luke looks like his uncle Trent

[@varunavi4587]

yes I think so too the resemblance is there

[@xolivelaughlovexo13]

Yes! And he looks a lot like Bailey when she was younger

[@vickytaylor9155]

I have pointed that out since the day he was born. I also think Duncan looks quite like Jacob.

[@emilyharris1425]

I cannot even explain how excited I got when Chris busted out the guitar at the end!!!!!!

[@anielaarce3049]

Duncan’s little gasp when they reminded him about the pie 😦😂🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺

[@jillypepper_]

I can’t believe it’s already vlogmas again! Seems like yesterday that it was vlogmas 2019!

[@soph4850]

I love how respectful you are of Faiths privacy and don’t just shove a camera in her face anyway like some people do

[@adalizrodriguez7035]

I love watching your kids eat. They enjoy it so much.

[@hopeswansonsmith4645]

This is my first real-time Ballinger Vlogmas, and I’m so excited to be here for it. I’m thankful for the way Jake dumped those marshmallows on the sweet potatoes.

[@KatieSparkles]

Hehe 😂 ”Duncan you don’t eat it like pizza, let me get you a fork” Duncan gets a fork and proceeds to use the fork to pick up the whole piece of pie and still eat it like a pizza. 😂 So precious! 💖

[@109876543210hahaha]

Duncan always come through with those one liners lol To grandpa, “we’re not playing with fire anymore.” 😂😂😂😂

[@ugogirl6111]

Duncan is thankful for the 🦃. I am thankful for the Ballinger family. ❤

[@daisysdailyvlogs6426]

Christopher: I thought for sure you were gonna say the pie was the take away Duncan: gasps* Christopher: so the bone was your favorite part not the pie Duncan: no the pie I love this family so much and I’m thankful for them and I’m super excited for vlogmas and I’m actually gonna do my own vlogmas this year so y’all should check it out on daisy’s daily vlogs

[@daveena3118]

[@pierre7191]

i’m thankful for Faith. thank you Faith for being in the awesome family! 😀

[@lucasenriquereyes610]

[@CamilaMartinez1327]

I'm so thankful for having you guys in my life 💖

[@grbrown09]

I'm so happy that we are talking about what we learned today, again!

[@sparkasaurusdonna]

Thanks for sharing your Vlogmas and thanksgiving with us. My hubby and I have the dreaded virus this year, but our grown up, college-aged son cooked us a wonderful feast and I had just enough sense of smell and taste to know it was wonderful. Thankful the "real" Ballinger family.

[@sparkasaurusdonna]

Not implying any other Ballingers are not real. I just mean that i like the way you keep it real about y'all.

[@dancersiss]

I love vlogmas I get to celebrate with all my KZbin family and teach people about epilepsy

[@a4rules2]

Yesss I love talking about what we learned such an iconic segment

[@MsHolli09]

Y’all having a Thanksgiving binder is making my day 😂😂 also that shot of Bailey putting the corn casserole in the oven made her look so grown up!

[@lucasenriquereyes610]

When he said that he won't be eating turkey, I laughed so hard.

[@hatishadeiseroth4897]

Happy Thanksgiving🦃 your dunner looked amazing.

[@lucasenriquereyes610]

@@hatishadeiseroth4897 huh?

[@angelajohnson7834]

Thanksgiving was interesting this year because our oven broke on Wednesday night while my youngest was baking her pumpkin pie. I ended up using the airfryer for the pie, the sweet potatoes, and the turkey and I put the ham in the crockpot and the green bean casserole on the stove.

[@varunavi4587]

oo how did the pie taste im curious

[@lilygrace1438]

Hey. Love you so much. Hope you had an amazing thanksgiving. You are such a wonderful amazing family.

[@xmorgan1123x]

I peeped that table manners sign on the dining room wall 👀 love it!

[@jeffie585]

I am so happy that it's time for vlogmas. Your videos each year make my holidays so wonderful. I was so excited to see let's talk about what we learned today back I missed it so much.

[@skychylde04]

Jacob outgrowing his monogramed 'crepes for the win' apron....whoa time is flying.

[@KennedyAllen]

OMG I LOVE YOUR ADVENT CALENDAR FOR YOUR INTRO! I’m so excited for your vlogmas! It’s something that brings me joy every day.

[@-haah-8745]

I hope to watch your Thanksgiving this year. Hi, Christopher, Jessica, Faith, Bailey, Jacob. Parker, Duncan, Luke, Teddy, and Rue.

[@marianabeltran3970]

Loved everything about this vlog. Duncan being funny, Luke eating and signing “more”, the older kids cooking and being silly, and of course Chris and Jessica just being themselves. The “What we learned today” was the icing on the cake. A++

[@meganstapo1867]

Omg the ‘let’s talk about what we learned today’ at the end made me so happy!☺️☺️

[@royce8]

Love that you brought back what we learned today! 🎸🦃♥️🌲🎄🎅🤶⛄🦌 so excited your VLOGMAS started!

[@Sakura-zu4rz]

What a beautiful family! Happy Thanksgiving!! We may be miles and miles apart, but you are in our heart!!❤️😘You always make my days brighter and my smile sparkle️. Your charm is irresistible!! You look energetic. You have a great smile.

[@TillyRuddick]

Not Thanksgiving dinner but Christmas dinner we totally eat for a couple weeks after. Classic boxing day dish is turkey and cranberry sauce sandwiches.. yum

[@donnasauer2699]

I feel like I heard the crowd cheer when let’s talk about what we learned today came on! 🎉🤗👍😁

[@abigailcadmare8598]

Your vlogs have helped keep me going this year. Thanks for sharing your Thanksgiving, it made me feel less lonely today.

[@SteffyRabbitheart]

Happy Belated Thanksgiving. I know how you feel. On our weekly menu Friday, Saturday, and Sunday Lunch and Dinner say Thanksgiving Leftovers. Lol! I think I like the Leftovers better then the actual Thanksgiving Day meal. Lol! I love that your whole family got involved and helped. That makes it extra special.

[@jenniyum]

We have always been "nooners" or "one'o'clock'ers" for every Thanksgiving. My father would wake up at 4-5am to prep and start the turkey every year.

[@21teesh]

I love that we're doing "lets talk about what we learned today" to end the vlogs during vlogmas! made me so happy

[@Selenais17]

Please don’t ever stop making vlogs, this is my favorite channel because it’s pure and fun !

[@samiamisme]

Recipes??? It all looked so yummy. My chronic illnesses kicked my behind way so very much this year. I barely could make the most simplistic, aka, microwavable, meal. It really cranked up my depression. So thanks for sharing your happy family with us!

[@lilyrowhani7731]

I love Vlogmas and I’m so excited for Christmas!!!!

[@vickytaylor9155]

If you ask for apple cider to someone in the UK, you will get an alcoholic drink. We have mulled cider in the UK at Christmas which is heated cider with cloves and cinnamon with sugar. We don’t as a rule brine our meat either. We don’t eat pumpkin either.
