Kids are in bed? Kids are in bed! Welcome back to another spirited installment of The Kids Are In Bed—and oh, what a ride this one is! In Episode 46, Jenni and Tim embark on their second annual round of Christmas caroling, delivering homemade brown butter cookies, candy canes, and off-key jingles across the Twin Cities. Sure, not everyone was home—some got a private doorbell concert, and at least one unsuspecting babysitter may need therapy now—but hey, it’s all in the name of holiday cheer.
When they weren’t harmonizing to “Jingle Bells,” they tackled some hot topics:
- The Scrabble Debate: Is it a word game or a math game? Let’s just say one champion who doesn’t even speak Spanish sparked a lively discussion.
- Decking the Halls (Sort Of): We reflect on Christmas lights—who’s got ’em, who doesn’t, and why some of us might just be permanently terrified of ladders.
- Jude’s Perpetual Grumbling: Once again, our son complains about leaving home only to declare it “the best day ever” right before we call it a night. Classic.
- Caroling Chaos: From waiting to ambush party guests at just the right moment to accidentally peeping into windows (don’t ask), our caroling escapades are full of holiday heart… and a touch of hilarity.
If you’re craving that cozy seasonal vibe, a bit of laughter, and the reassuring knowledge that no family’s holiday season is picture-perfect, this is your episode.
