Our first Christmas in our new home! 

I was a single mom, there were some years I would be up all night wrapping and trying to make it all perfect. My advice, the more stuff is not the thing to achieve, the fun times and special memories are the most important. Sarah seemed to have that figured out when she said she started to realize that perfection isn’t what they remember, it is the time spent with family. You guys are so awesome💕

I am a grandmother of children Jack and Sunny's age. My daughter puts so much pressure on herself to have everything perfect. She compares it to Christmas' of her childhood. She thinks it was perfect...it was far from it. I was a wreck. What she remembers is the feeling of everyone being together and happy. Relax and enjoy the chaos.

Awwww I love how Jack is concerned why Sarah is crying😢❤❤

I can’t believe Sunny has already taken her first steps! She’s adorable and is growing so fast

Oh heck yeah! Started at 9:30pm when the boys went to sleep. Went to bed at 5:30am. The boys got up at 6:15am. I might add that both parents did 20 years in the service so as long as there is plenty of strong coffee, the impossible will remain possible.

Ah, the bed heads of Sunny and Jack. The toys! The Christmas wreckage! The tradition of Christmas mornings in your own home, and cookies for Santa! Mommy and Daddy with tired eyes, enjoying watching the little ones, then off to Grandma and Grandpa’s house for more fun! May you be able to put the difficult times behind you, and start fresh in 2024! May God bless you and keep you. ❤😊

Why is it 90% about Jack, it s Sunny s first Christmas and the unwrapping was mostly Jack, split seconds of Sunny.

Sunny knows the truth... she knows dah dah is "Santa". Wow! what a kid. I am going to watch Sunny take her first few steps again. 👏👏👏

Looks like a great Christmas! Your first year you always learn to put the toys together a week or 2 before Christmas next time. Those toys always takes way longer than you think it will! Then you buy those huge bags to put that big stuff in and a big bow! Jack seemed to be camera shy. And Sarah, It is great when you learn, as a mommy, not try to be perfect. It is more fun and less stressful, but planning ahead really helps. I loved watching my little ones go crazy in all the Christmas paper....wish you had filmed the kids doing that. I saw sunny trying to play under the paper and smiling. Even my little dog has fun tunneling through all the paper in the floor on Christmas. It is so fun to watch the kids and dog do that and get all crazy with it....maybe next year. Your kids will love that playroom when you get it all done! Hoping to see it soon! ❤

Thank you for showing your house in a non-perfect state almost every video. It means a lot. And thank you for a year of amazing videos also.

Jack looks completely underwhelmed about going to Disneyland 😂

I'm old enough to be your mom & get so much joy out of watching your adorable little family ! Thank you & BTW, always stayed up on Christmas eve to wrap all the presents ! It was exhausting but wouldn't trade those days for all the $$$ in the world !

What a caring wonderful gift Derik, I was in tears right along with Sarah! 😭 Love you guys! Looks like you had a wonderful Christmas and hoping you have a wonderful new year!

I miss this so much! I always thought Christmas as a parent was even more fun. As a child you feel the anticipation and excitement, but as a parent you get to create all that magic for you children and witness all the wonder and joy through them. My "babies" are now 35 and 29, have lived far away for many years and we've only had a couple of Christmas' together since. Still... I'm grateful for the memories and the privledge of getting to create the magic for all those years.

Merry Christmas its been so much fun watching Sunny and Jack grow this year, and seeing all the big changes that you've made this year. Thank you for sharing this time with us all the year through!

I love Jack not caring at all about Disney land😂 he’s like I don’t know what that is.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to the Beeston Fam. Love watching your posts. Take care of yourselves and have a wonderful 2024.

I just adore Sunny so much! The Santa dah-dah was ADORABLE and the kisses for Daddy were the absolute SWEETEST!!! MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY!!!

Jack is like my son was. He is 32 now and still doesn't know how to express his excitement. 😂 These are the growing pains you're going through, and you'll all be better for having experienced trials.

Merry Christmas! 😊❤ Jack is so big now and Sunny's doing a great job walking!😊❤

Ahhh, the good Oľ days, up all night on Christmas Eve, wrapping all the gifts, putting bikes or dollhouses together, and getting very little sleep. That alone felt like a tradition 😊 You guys did a great job. ❤

so sweet, the kids ate so cute 🤗 Sunny looks like her daddy, she's so so adorable! Merry Christmas

Your year has been real. Keeping up with you all was something! Just Sunny growing up was like a whirlwind. Seeing Jackson mature into a fine older brother was amazing. You two being a couple but still being you as individuals is inspiring.

U guys make me remember when my kids were small. I love you guys and all the sweet moments you share. Merry Christmas and let's all have a blessed and bright 2024. Cherish these moments the babies grow so fast 😢

Glad y'all had a Happy Christmas!

You have both learned much since last Christmas. Gratitude and Grace. So much more calm.

Happy New Years Beestons 💕🙏 Thank you for always keeping it real and showing more than just the happy highlights of life. You Guys are such amazing parents and I have loved watching yall grow and adjust to all the new chapters of life 💕

Sarah & Derick, I LOVE your Christmas tree!! It’s beautiful! Watching Jack getting so excited with his cars and trucks, made me reminisce about my son(now 37), getting so excited about his cars and trucks he got for Christmas! And little Sunny is so cute playing her xylophone! Enjoy & hug those babies tight. They’ll be grown before you know it 😢 HAPPY NEW YEAR 🎉 Much love from Cobbs Creek, Virginia ❤️🙏🎚️✌🏻

WELL DONE!!!! What a brilliant Christmas you two have mana ged. You both worked so hard. Try to remember to spread the presents out a bit. It is obviously so overwhelming to a small child to take everything in. I remember with fondness the excitement and happiness I felt in finding a doll in my Christmas pillowcase at the bottom of my bed along with a few sweet treats and a piece of fruit! I know Tim’s have changed but your kiddies will remember Christmas with fondness for always, not every single toy. It is impossible over the years. The overall image of excitement and happiness and finding gifts etc will remain with them always no matter the amount. You have both worked so hard to put this magical Christmas together. Now Relax and enjoy it!! Happy Christmas ❤️❤️❤️😄😄

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! I look forward to your vlogs. It's so fun seeing you both interact with you babies. They are so adorable. Sunny is so tiny (my granddaughter and grandson were very tiny too) but she's growing so fast. She's such a doll and Jack is such a cute little guy. I love watching him interact with his baby sister. You two are such fun people. ❤❤❤❤

Happy Christmas to the Beestons, magical time when the kids are young🎅🏻🎄❤️xxx

All young parents do the best they can. I remember those days. Enjoy because they will be grown in the blink of an eye. Enjoy your videos and Happy New Year to all!

How wonderful that Sarah and Derik got to spend Christmas in their new home with the kids. I loved how the Christmas Tree 🎄 was decorated. It was enjoyable to watch this Christmas episode.

Merry Christmas with all it’s joys and blessings ❤ Derek and Sarah, as young parents and moving this year, you’re doing great 👍 Jack and Sunny make my day with their cuteness and love that permeates throughout this😍😃💕💖💞 Have a great new year👏💝

You guys are what a family is supposed to be. It makes my day to see you all so happy together. Merry Christmas and have a blessed new year! A big hug from Tennessee!!😅

I love you guys!! I’m so proud of you for making it through the year!

Love you guys too! You both are rocking parenting, loving and supporting each other, working as a team through thick and thin, ups and downs. Abundant Blessings in 2024. ❤🎉🤗

So cute! It’s crazy that Jack is a spitting image of Sarah and Sunny is a spitting image of Derek.

Wishing your family a very merry Christmas and happy new year! I look so forward to watching your videos and checking in with your family. Keep up the good work!❤️🙏🏻

Loved sharing Christmas with you! The kids were so precious but I think Jack needs a little rest. You two are the best parents!! Take care and God bless you!!

You guys are the best parents ever❤❤

Ya know, you guys seem to go through alot. It seems like its always something. Stolen cars, surgeries, failed surgery. However, And i really mean this. Ive stayed with you because your life seems genuine and real to me. You have true heart. And somewhere I know you both really love God. Those who suffer, are chosen. Ive come to really love you Beestons. Ive never seen you jealous or pitiful. You dont complain. Youre my type of people. Jack is so sweet. Every present you could see he was wowed. He has gratitude. Thats beautiful for so little. You are very blessed. With beautiful children. So happy NY Beestons. Lets see what 2024 holds for those of us who ride the roller coaster of life.

This is a great Christmas family video Derik and Sarah! Jack and Sunny were so happy with their gifts and I just love watching how much love there is in your family!!❤️

Yay my favorite fam ❤️🎄 hope you had a wonderful Christmas 😊

Haha, my daughter is the same way. It takes her time to express her excitement and appreciation. It’s always overwhelming at first😅 Sunny’s hair is getting lighter! How cute!😃 great video love y’all!

Merry Christmas Beeston Fam!! I genuinely love your transparency and how you show the reality of every day life! You two are doing a great job with your kids and are very blessed to be able to spend so much time together!! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Was looking forward to seeing this!!! Happy New Year and merry Christmas

Oh how I remember those days with the little ones. You guys are great parents and I think next year you need to start putting things together a week before Xmas. Have a happy and healthy New Year.

Wishing you all the best luck in your new beautiful home ❤️❤️

Thank you for that. You all are😂 like family. I look forward to seeing you all on whatever platform you're on. I'm so glad you all had a good Christmas, and next year is going to be great. HAPPY NEW YEAR 🎉❤ .

Happy New Year Derik, Sarah, Jack, Sunny and the rest of your family!🎉🥳🎈🎈🎈🎈

Merry Christmas Beestons!!!!

Love your family!!❤

So very nice to see you again and the children were so very cute for Christmas. As for the toys I learned to start early putting things together then just stowing them away till it's time as it saves a lot of hassle and STRESS on mom and dad when it's down to the last few days as you know how fast it comes. So thank you both for sharing take care and enjoy your Disney trip! ❤

I just love your sweet, little family. I'm glad you had a lovely Christmas and I wish you all the very best for a wonderful New Year 🥳❤

Next year grab a big box and have the kids throw their wrapping paper and packaging in as they open each gift. You can make a game out of it. Each year it will just become a normal thing you all do and makes for an easier clean up at the end. My kids are now 27 & 31 and we still do it. :) Have a wonderful New Year!!

He is 3 he won't even remember, he probably wants to stay home but on the good note Merry Christmas your children are beautiful

love LOVE love your simple Christmas with reality! we always spent hours putting those things together too...the swing set is so cute...Sunny will have fun soon

Christmas is so fun when your kids are young!❤ Merry Christmas Beestons!❤ Happy New Year!!!! Love y’all!!!

What a fun Christmas! Happy New year!

Merry Christmas and happy holidays! Jack has grown so big and Sunny is already walking. Where did the time go 😢

So much fun following your family. Merry Christmas and I hope y’all get some rest with all you have been through. 2024 is your year!

Happy new year you guys. Love watching where you guys came from to where you are now. You guys have a beautiful family. Love you all.

Merry Christmas! You guys are dong such a great job with your kids. What I have learnt to do is to assemble things in advance and not on Christmas eve so that I can see if everything works or if I need to add anything to it. And also so i can enjoy Christmas eve myself and not stressing over gifts and getting things ready.

You guys are great! This will be a great year!

2023 was my dumpster 🔥. Hoping you are all well. Kids looked so sweet! Happy new year to you all.

You had a wonderful Christmas 🎄 and the kids were so excited and fun. Happy New Year 🎉🎉

Merry cristmas guys for you and your family. Also Happy new year 🎉🎉🎉 excited for whats next

Orange rolls, eggs, hash browns and sausage...what an awesome tradition. Absolutely love those orange rolls from my childhood...I'm 60...and going to do the same as you next year. Love you! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! 🥰🥰🥰

Y'all have had alot going on!! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year !!!

The imperfections are what make it perfect. Those special times with the wee ones are the best memories. Cherish everything the perfect and imperfect. Merry Christmas!

We have 4 (now grown) children. We started staying up all night long wrapping gifts. One year the kids got frustrated waiting for us to put stickers and batteries in everything. The next year, we applied all of the stickers, inserted batteries, and secured them in the boxes. Then we wrapped.

Did Sunny get more than the 1 toy ,?

Don't kill yourself with items that take longer than an hour to assemble. Give the kit to the kids and spend time with them building it together during Christmas break. At their ages, they are never going to remember whether or not the toy was completely put together on Christmas morning ~ they will only remember the joy of time with you and enjoying the toy for many months to come. Consider letting the kids open and play with their toys as they go. All presents don't have to be opened within a specific time period...let the Christmas presents last as long as it takes to open them. Once the kids get a little older, it will literally take 10 minutes for them to destroy everything under the tree. Consider the gifts of enjoyment and appreciation and foster that from a young age. Opening gifts can be a genuine reflection of the true meaning of Christmas...go ahead and allow time for them to enjoy the process. You all are great, young parents and will learn much of this on your own...just sharing my reflections as a Mom who raised five kids who are now successful, healthy, caring adults.

Jack’s bed head is the best! You guys are the most adorable family! I’m glad you had a wonderful Christmas. We are all looking forward to seeing the Disney vlogs! Happy new year!

Merry Christmas beautiful family 🎄🎅🎁❤️❤️❤️❤️

Orange rolls are my family tradition too! So fun to see someone else do the same!

Making memories and starting new traditions with your kiddos is the best thing!

Awwww what a great and beautiful video. Love your first Christmas in your new home. Jack and Sunny are so sweet and adorable, they're growing up so fast ❤❤❤❤. Love you guys so much. Merry Christmas 🎄🎁 and Happy New Year 🎊

The fact that you guys took the time to put thought into presents for each other and make time to open them together even with all the chaos of having kids is amazing. You guys are the best couple and the best parents and are such an amazing representation of a happy family that does so much to keep their kids happy.

I know the 3am's are hard but enjoy them now bc soon they will pass. 🎄🦆🤶✨️💙 Santa did good job and there are 12 days of Christmas 25th thru the 5th of January to complete presents! ❤

ALLL about Jack ! Only ONE gift for Sunny. Unreal !! And I’m NOT shocked !

Love you guys too. You are so real. Thanks for the fun and sharing your sweet family with us.
