Vlog | Holiday Decor Tour & Emily's Sprinkle | December 19, 2015

[@debvicpretty]

To be honest, I used to think you were a bit pretentious, but I just love you now. Your home is beautiful but cosy and not overly fancy and in your most vulnerable moments I see how real and kind you are. But my favorite is feeling the pure love and excitement you have for being a mother! I am so so happy for you.

[@joshandjenvlog1224]

+Debbie Prins I agree!

[@LucaEuphoria]

LOVE this vlog! Thanks for sharing and Happy Holidays!

[@sarcasticsugar4466]

You have a beautiful home, a beautiful life and a beautiful soul. Happy holidays.

[@arleneneme]

Beautiful video, and a 'thank you' to Don's mom for sharing her home décor with us. Your bedroom is so peaceful and warm. Merry Christmas to all!

[@uptownflavor]

You really have a beautiful home and you do such a great job of keeping it up. Ready for little missy to scamper around.

[@annerozes7]

Thank you for sharing your beautiful cozy Christmas/winter themed home and your mother in law's home.

[@joshm82]

I think you did a great job toning down the decor for this year but still making the house feel festive!

[@VictoriaMarieScraps]

I am so impressed that you have kept your furniture for so long. It pays to purchase good quality pieces. Beautiful as always! Now get some rest!

[@Ellenllee]

Jen, you are so correct on the importance of the nearness of family. When I was tiny I spent the Holidays with cousins and although we now live farther away,my Holiday memories are magical :).

[@Bhdez62]

Both homes are just Warm and cozy, hope you all have a very Merry Christmas.

[@TheLifeofBridget]

The bits of your in-laws home you shared kind of resemble your home, Jen. That's awesome!

[@jonewee1]

Merry Christmas Don and Jen. Thanks for all your wonderful videos. Love them all!!

[@Mom2Cody06]

Merry Christmas! Having cousins so close in age is the best!

[@clarec3]

Thank you for sharing your beautiful home and the festivities. Happy holidays, Jen :)

[@keke5856]

I enjoyed the Vlog but then again I enjoy all your vlogs 😊 Happy Holidays

[@prettypixychick]

Love this vlog! It reminds me of watching some of your original holiday preps and house tours. 🤗😊❄️🎄

[@BrandiSikora]

What a wonderful family, I think your mother-in-law is just the best! So sweet!

[@dottieburd]

I had never heard of a Sprinkle before. I thought it was such a good idea to make the tree decorations at the party. Don looked cute holding up his long paper chain. Your house looks lovely ...(As do you) ! Thank you for sharing your holiday house décor with us. I love the new look in your bedroom. The reading nook is awesome ! I hope you have a very Merry Christmas Jen & Don.

[@hopie81201]

Jen, you need to get the Light Keeper Pro. It's a little battery operated "gun" that sends a surge through the strand. Sometimes the bulb malfunctions and doesn't close when it burns out, this little do hickie makes it close and then allows the lights that are off but not burned out to turn back on. We've had ours for years and it still works great.

[@artandsoulfulcreations]

Jen, I love all your videos, especially your vlogs. Thanks for sharing with us. And congratulations on your brand new precious little gift from God!

[@laurenchayazahavamusic9973]

awww this was so fun and cozy to watch, jen! family gatherings are the best . you guys are so cute ♡♡♡

[@123mintjelly]

Soooo happy you decided to vlog today. Wonderful to know that you are already reading to baby girl. She is a very lucky little girl to have such loving, down to earth people as you and Don to raise her. Merry Christmas !

[@cynthia6055]

Everything totally gorgeous Jen at both homes!! So exciting Emily's 2nd baby coming soon after your's and Don's. Loved the darling gifts you got for the "sprinkle". Fun stuff, blessed stuff, exciting stuff for sure!! Can't wait to hear when baby girl gets here.

[@southerncouponista]

[@katrinascreationscrafting]

Beautiful decorations. I didn't know Emily was expecting, too. How fun!

[@carrierothamel6805]

[@tabithacharanza713]

[@ytrap2007]

Thank you for sharing! Wouldn't it be fun if your mother in law made some entertaining videos. She is such a good cook and her food always looks very artistic and creative. I also miss Don's cooking vids. You look so beautiful and I continue to pray for you and your expanding family. I am so happy for you and Don! :)

[@sola4772]

yess please!

[@Nytingalle]

She has a channel where she talks about The Maria Montessori theory on raising children. It's pretty cool and Emily is in several videos already

[@princessmommy8166]

Was hoping you would do a video like this!!! Your house is beautiful and your mil also has a really beautiful home and Utah home isn't too shabby and you are a beautiful person so you make these houses even better! Merry Christmas to all of you!

[@jeanspeer4053]

What an adorable concept, a sprinkle! Love it!

[@dacakemom]

Merry Christmas Jen and lots of good wishes for you and Emily as you get ready for those precious little ones to arrive. God Bless.

[@vettechmom3414]

Our 9 foot has been blowing strands for the past couple years. I just buy more white lights and fill in the areas that are burned out. I love my tree and don't want to replace it. This is our 12th Christmas with it. I haven't found one that looks as real and nice as it does. I think next year I'm just going to cut off the old lights and start stringing lights each year, sometimes colored, sometimes white. But I'm keeping the tree :-) Your home is beautiful ! I love watching your videos and you have such nice ideas. Merry Christmas !!!!

[@andreab3850]

As a fellow short waisted woman...I appreciate your shortness of breath! LOL My oldest daughter was 9lbs 4oz...I thought I was going to pass out towards the end! Keep watching for the day you can breathe all of a sudden...will mean baby-girl is settling into position! :)

[@ReenieK2]

Congrats to Emily on her baby to be !! Your inlaws home is beautiful !

[@naomibarraclough]

Wishing yall a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

[@11142002th]

Thanks for sharing Jen!! I grew up with my cousins and we are like brothers and sisters. It will be great for baby girl to have other kids to play with.

[@HappyHomeInspired]

There is a light testing kit that Target sold this holiday season. Its red and its shaped like a little plastic gun. It has 3 different ways to test and work out issues with prelit light strands. I was able to keep my 6 year old prelit tree going as well as several of my outdoor prelit decorations with this tool and it was worth every penny. It has very detailed instructions on how to trouble shoot lines. It didn't take me very long and I highly recommend it to you guys. I just don't know if you will easily find it at this point but you might find it on Amazon.

[@emeraldgypsyheart]

The in-laws' new home is beautiful (from the glimpse you shared with us Jen. Merry Christmas from my home to yours!

[@digitalblossom]

If the tree is a GE lite tree there is usually a white socket bulb somewhere in the front that blows that causes the whole strand to go out. Try looking for something like that just pull the bulb and replace the Buble itself not the socket there are videos on how to do it. It is how I fixed mine.

[@cyndeg661]

Your home is beautiful all decorated for Christmas! Thanks for sharing! Have a wonderful Christmas 🎅🏻🎄🎁

[@lindaf302]

I love your holiday videos! Hope you and Don will have a wonderful christmas.Merry christmas from my family to yours.

[@madysnuggles1078]

Oh my goodness! Your bump has gotten so big! But in an amazing way! You are looking amazing ! And your home is so beautiful 😊

[@nancyfenton7463]

Merry Christmas Jen, Don, Winnie, baby girl, and family!!

[@AlongOurLife]

Beautiful house and decorations. I just noticed one thing. For the first couple of months baby needs to be changed a lot and specially if she poops during the night which she will a lot, if you want convenience, set up a little changing station in your bedroom as well for the first 3 months. Just a table and a pad and a trash can plus a basket with wipes, diapers and diaper cream :)

[@christinawhite9256]

Merry Christmas!!! 😀

[@lalaveroo]

You must add the holiday in your movie collection 😊😊

[@gwen6566]

Merry Christmas to you and your family Jen. Keeping you in my thoughts.

[@llamasesme3243]

TFS! both homes look so cozy and nice. really like reading nook in your bedroom. ok, I need to start a holiday movie collection. The flowers are so pretty and the mug was too cute! Happy Holidays! wish you ALL the best :))

[@conniepalmer2956]

Hi Jen, You should add "Deck the Halls" with Danny DeVito and Matthew Broderick to your movie collection. It's hillarious! One of my comedy faves.

[@lorieparkes2111]

Blessings to you and your family. Merry Christmas.

[@tallulahboo9924]

Congrats to Emily! Have a great Christmas!

[@wyllia4]

Merry Christmas Jen! Thanks for sharing!

[@katehensley62]

What a family of Martha Stewarts! Gorgeous décor in both your and MIL's house. Jen I have to say your hair is looking amazing, looks like it's increased in volume ten fold. Sorry you are so out of breath, I remember being that way with my pregnancies too - the good news is as soon as you deliver, it goes away. It is tiring though, I remember that as being the most pesky thing of pregnancy. So close now!!! I'm so excited for you and Don. Congratulations to the Ross clan, 2 babies in the New Year, how exciting. TFS a snippet of your life with us - made my morning to see your bright and happy face today!

[@omghandbags1]

Hello dear happy holidays! Its not the right place to suggest it but i wanted to tell you i really loved putting together my nursing caddy: Lipbalm, water bottle and nursing cream for me. As well as headphones so i dont disturb baby if i am watching something. Safety scissors for baby nails,bib, wash cloths to wipe milk, and tissues. I got my caddy which worked wonderful from 3 sprouts its open for easy access abd it has a handle to be easily carried :)

[@Daijinaa]

Have a Merry Christmas!!
