This episode got me in the feels. The poem, the different melodies, Ella and Julie… All of it made me nostalgic for Christmas of my childhood. Thanks for doing covering this song. I never knew the story behind it.
Love the boys!!! The outtakes were so funny! The Christmas Pizzadeias are so cute!! A little butter, cinnamon and sugar would make a great Snowflake cookie. What a tough “who sang it best” choice. I voted twice so hopefully there will be a tie!
