**Holiday Traditions and Reflections**

For Greg, being with family is the most important thing during holidays like Thanksgiving. He enjoys spending time with loved ones, but has had to make some adjustments due to his health struggles. "It's basically Thanksgiving part two that's just something we do when we do get together," he says. This year, Greg decided to add a festive touch to his holiday celebration by decorating his home with Christmas lights.

Greg's favorite food during the holidays is fudge, which comes in many different types of chocolate candies. He has had to be more mindful of his diet due to his health issues, but still enjoys indulging in sweet treats. "I made it a little Christmas themed for you," he says, showing off his festive decorations.

As Greg reflects on the past year, he is grateful to have finally received Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) or disability benefits. This has given him more financial freedom and allowed him to start making plans for the future. "It's something I'm proud of that I've accomplished in this past 12 months," he says.

Meanwhile, David is looking forward to a new year filled with vlogs and travel opportunities. He is grateful to have finally taken care of his disability benefits and is excited to explore more of the world.

**Favorite Holiday Foods**

For Gordon, answering the question "What are my favorite holiday foods?" was a first-time experience. He started by sharing his favorite Thanksgiving foods: green beans, turkey, mashed potatoes, and pumpkin pie. For Christmas, he enjoyed mosquitoes ( ham), turkey, pumpkin pie, and other festive treats.

**Personal Achievements**

Alison, Chelsea's mom, is proud to have passed her degree and is now pursuing a teaching course. She shares that one of her favorite holiday memories is spending time with her dogs on Christmas Day, watching them get excited about their presents. Unfortunately, this year Alison won't be able to experience the same joy with her beloved pets.

Thomas Kellogg is grateful for his new Instagram account and the opportunities it has brought him. He shares that one of his favorite holiday memories is discovering a Nintendo Switch in a shoe box, tricked by his parents into thinking he was getting a new pair of shoes.

**A Year of Hardship and Hope**

Dave Specter's 2021 was marked by setbacks, including being robbed and facing financial struggles. However, after five months of waiting, Dave finally received his brand-new 2022 Tesla Model Y. He is grateful for the car and the sense of freedom it brings, knowing that he no longer has to worry about gas costs or other expenses.

Dave's journey was not without its challenges, but he persevered and is now looking forward to a brighter future. "Things began to pay off at the end of 2021," he says, "and I was able to purchase my brand-new 2022 model y, which I love." With his new car comes the freedom to explore and enjoy life without financial burdens.

**Conclusion**

As we reflect on our own holiday traditions and achievements, we are reminded that every experience is unique and deserving of celebration. Whether it's a simple tradition or a major accomplishment, taking time to appreciate what we have can bring us joy and gratitude during this special time of year.

and for the most part it's worked great it's worked very very well but i did have a few people have issues with google drive so they went their own routes and uploaded it it meaning your video to youtube they uploaded their videos to dropbox they sent them to me directly through discord or whatever so if you did have troubles and you went out of your way to find another route respect i appreciate that initiative you guys are awesome thank you and if you did miss this year's collab i apologize but there will be a collab next year guys life willing of course because we are in crazy times amongst copen and all that stuff we we've had a crazy past what two to three years at this point about about about two years roughly um and honestly it's not going to slow down anytime soon but it's important to appreciate the fact that we are alive and that we have our health amen do i appreciate it so thank you guys for a great 2021 and um as per tradition i ask you to talk about one of three things i have my ipad pro in front of me right now love this thing is my baby how you doing baby how you doing so uh this year i asked you to talk about one of the three following questions here we go number one what is one thing you are proud to have accomplished in the last 12 months question number two what is a favorite holiday memory that always comes to mind and question number three what are some of your favorite holiday foods i believe that's a first one for me i don't think i've ever asked that in the past what five to seven years that i've been doing this i don't know it's been a little while now so here we go i mean yes this video is about you guys but i'm going to start out the annual tradition by going through all three and guys i have not rehearsed any of these answers yet i'm just gonna go on a whim and just talk about what's on my mind starting right now here we go so what is one thing i'm proud to have accomplished in the last 12 months i want to do two things sorry i'm going to break throughs a little bit two things number one my brand new 2021 tesla model 3. you guys know how much i love that car i've i worked very hard towards getting one yes it's not technically my car it's at least for the next three years but that's just the thing i'm going to save up to buy the next model 3 refresh so i'm going to get an even better and even newer car in three years or whatever it's going to take um but i'm very proud to have a model 3 in my garage and it is it is my car for the next two and a half years and i'm so proud so honored to have that as my primary vehicle i love that car so much my mazda was good but it was time to move on you know i mean that mazda 3 certainly well for the last what 10 plus years but man my model 3 nothing even compares at least in my experience and a second thing i'm proud to have accomplished this year again i'm breaking the rules i'm sorry but i want to talk you know i want to talk to you guys starting an actual gaming channel years ago i opened up defranco gaming which actually has quite a few subscribers but i wanted to get a fresh start you know now that i have a legit streaming and recording setup upstairs i'm very proud to have that very very grateful love that setup it makes it so much easier for me to actually make real gaming content for you guys and i don't want to spam this channel with

that instantly comes to mind is my mac pro i believe i got that for christmas 2007. i want to say yeah it was a 2006 model i got it in 2007 and man am i grateful now granted i don't use it anymore obviously because it's 20 21 a lot has changed in the last what i don't know how many years it's been i mean it's been a while it's been a while guys and technology changes fast i mean faster now than ever right i mean think about it like technology our phones for example change dramatically within like two years now but man that 2006 mac pro in a way kickstarted my youtube career like it it allowed me to create things better and faster than ever um and it was a huge stepping stone in getting to where i am today so man i am grateful for that mom dad if you're watching thank you so much i

grateful guys thank you so much mom and dad i love you i love you so much okay question number three what are some of your favorite holiday foods the first thing that comes to mind you know besides cookies and desserts and all that stuff i'm trying to cut back and slim down on that stuff but obviously being the holidays i'm going to treat myself to a bunch of holiday desserts and whatever in the next week or two in terms of like actual christmas meal my mom's homemade mashed potatoes seriously nobody even comes close my mom makes the best homemade mashed potatoes they're so whippy whippy is not the right word but you guys know what i mean like the very soft consistent mashed potatoes and my mom's gravy my mom makes some of the best gravy i say this every year i'll say it again my mom's gravy is kind of like a soup you know it's kind of like a christmas soup in a way it's not good for you definitely not good for you it's filled with butter and fat but isn't that what the holidays are all about treating yourself and being with those you love and just shoving food in into your mouth of course it is because in many people's eyes january is a new start you know january i definitely will be cutting back once again i've lost about 20 pounds in the last year now granted i owe some of that to covet i mean i i lost like five pounds from uh covent and i've actually you know kept it

love video games and um yeah and also i wish everybody a very merry christmas and a happy new year happy holidays my name is chase yama and one of my proudest accomplishments from 2021 has just been how much fun i've been having with content creation between making videos on youtube streaming on twitch and posting short form content on instagram and tick tock i've just been having a blast sharing my creativity with the world and i think being stuck at home a lot during this year has helped me realize how much fun i have making this kind of stuff for now happy holidays everyone thank you for watching and i hope to see you again soon bye i actually have a couple of favorite holiday memories that come to mind they are number one is when my sister and minnie sorla always come up and come over darren and a couple weeks before christmas we always get the christmas tree down from the loft and put it in the room and put up and into all the christmas decorations all around house make it very very christmassy and the second one is when we get our christmas eve boxes christmas eve we all get the same matching jammies that we wear christmas morning now let's say merry christmas and happy new year to you david franco and your family hopefully 2022 is a better year forever in this world merry christmas happy new year david hi david it's trina from treatment wandering so my

good and safe christmas happy holidays merry christmas to thank her to thank your family family and fellow patrons and probably the most memorable christmas i have had probably the most memorable present i've ever had earliest person i remember was the game boy and health system and i say that everywhere to my nan's house to my aunt and uncles to everywhere and that that's something i did that's something i kept doing from the gameboy um advance game boy sp to the nintendo ds 3ds and now the switch oh i said i can't get into my uncles but i do take it i'm watching my places and that really all started and that's probably that's the earliest limited present that's the earliest because i mean i have i probably gonna misremember i have a very merry christmas guys see you in the new year hello everybody it's bmac345 here or brennan first off i just wanted to thank david for doing the youtube holiday the past couple years that i've been doing it's been fun and i look forward to doing it um each year that i've been doing it so um and secondly i'd like to uh take a second to wish everybody a merry christmas and a happy holidays i hope everybody is staying safe out there and hope you all have a great holidays um so david asked for us to do one question i'm gonna do all three um so the first one is what is one thing you are proud to have accomplished in the past 12 months i would say losing weight um so ever since i had gotten out of high school over the past like about four or five years i've kind of gotten a little overweight for my for my size um and i was able to lose about 30 pounds so that was um really cool to be able to do uh secondly was is a favorite holiday memory that always comes to mind um i would say probably um i would say just always always going in um each year going to a tree farm and getting a tree and then going to um broner's which is a christmas store um near me and just always going there with family and being around with family and stuff like that i would say that's a that's a memory that always just comes around every year um and we do that every year as well um what are some of your favorite holiday foods um i always like i always like a ham i was like eating ham um your occasional you know maybe like apple pie um i mean this is more of a candy but i do like i do like candy canes i do like reese's trees i think reese's trees taste the best literally out of all the reese's um with that being said i want to take up too much time hope again everybody has a happy holidays has a merry christmas and i will talk to you guys later merry christmas hey david and viewers of david it's dan coming to you from the frozen tundra that is minnesota brrrr you want to know just how cold it is hang on let me consult my watch here what's the current temperature it's 19 degrees outside yeah but here's the kicker that's without the windchill with the windchill is it feels closer to 10 so yeah brrrr so i just thought for this little thing here that i'd share one of my family's favorite christmas traditions over the years now this is definitely a more recent one for us but the thing that i've enjoyed as part of our more recent traditions is that instead we're instead of doing a thing like ham or turkey or whatever for for our christmas dinner we've instead been moving to things just like little appetizers i remember in one of our recent years we just did like a little baked potato bar and hey i actually quite enjoyed that not quite the same as your usual ham turkey or whatever else but you know what hey we've made it work and with that i hope you and everyone else out there have a very merry christmas happy hanukkah or whatever else you decide to celebrate and a very happy and healthy 2022. so guys logan here uh just want to say hope you guys have a merry christmas happy holidays happy new years whenever you're watching this just hope you guys are staying healthy and everything's doing good for you guys um my goals for 2022 is basically stay healthy stay consistent and um i i just want to i want to continue to grow my channel and yeah just just all around meet new people and enjoy life just really about it just basically enjoy life the way it is and let the good times you know roll out and yeah all right guys have a great one what's up youtube it's danny um i thought i'd go ahead and participate in this year's christmas holiday that david always does uh so i'm gonna talk about the food portion i guess like my favorite foods on christmas usually ham love ham stuffing love stuffing it's almost like thanksgiving part two really because we my family we eat a lot of the same food that we have on thanksgiving we have again for christmas i know some people like goose or duck i've had duck on uh on christmas before um and it's good but usually it's turkey stuffing um cranberry sauce and yeah stuff like that rolls and stuff and i love fruitcake i don't know why everybody hates fruitcake so much i don't get it i think for greg is good obviously uh fudge is the thing um a lot of chocolate candies all kinds of get now you guys probably know i have to watch all that nowadays but you know before i had to watch all that i could just eat whatever i wanted um but yeah just it's basically thanksgiving part two that's just something we do when we do get together um so yeah it is what it is also uh i made it i made it a little christmas themed for you oh i'm going over i'm going over time i'm sorry david hold on let me just real quick i just wanna show the lights and you

apple cinema display that ain't cheap that ain't cheap but man am i grateful guys thank you so much mom and dad i love you i love you so much okay question number three what are some of your favorite holiday foods the first thing that comes to mind you know besides cookies and desserts and all that stuff i'm trying to cut back and slim down on that stuff but obviously being the holidays i'm going to treat myself to a bunch of holiday desserts and whatever in the next week or two in terms of like actual christmas meal my mom's homemade mashed potatoes seriously nobody even comes close my mom makes the best homemade mashed potatoes they're so whippy whippy is not the right word but you guys know what i mean like the very soft consistent mashed potatoes and my mom's gravy my mom makes some of the best gravy i say this every year i'll say it again my mom's gravy is kind of like a soup you know it's kind of like a christmas soup in a way it's not good for you definitely not good for you it's filled with butter and fat but isn't that what the holidays are all about treating yourself and being with those you love and just shoving food in into your mouth of course it is because in many people's eyes january is a new start you know january i definitely will be cutting back once again i've lost about 20 pounds in the last year now granted i owe some of that to covet i mean i i lost like five pounds from uh covent and i've actually you know kept it off i weighed myself today and i'm still below uh 170. i don't i don't mind sharing that that's i'm like 168 right now i was about like 195 196 when i started losing weight um i would like to get down to 160 maybe like a healthy 160. but yeah those are some of my favorite holiday foods oh and of course real quick sorry gotta mention my mom's rice my mom makes some of the best i think it's a hungarian rice recipe that's quite literally been passed down through family traditions uh generations i should say i believe it was my grandma my dad's mom you guys will never see her unfortunately i haven't had grandparents in years it is what it is i'm used to it by now um but uh yeah am i am i grateful for the fact that my mom is an amazing incredible skilled cook seriously guys my mom pulls off things that i can never pull off that's why i door dash so much i'm not a big cooker cooker that's a that's a that's a good word all right guys we're going to wrap it on that note guys thank you so much for watching my portion of a youtube holiday 2020 2021 maybe 2022 i'll learn to speak better i don't know anyway guys this

used to get together along with the rest of my family for thanksgiving at their house so i remember everyone used to bring a dish and it was sort of like a buffet style i remember my grandma and grandpa used to be singing and spreading holiday cheer and joking and it was just something that i really looked forward to every year uh and i'm gonna hold that memory near and dear to my heart so

on christmas morning 1991 when came downstairs early in the morning with my and my sister and my brother and i opened up a super nintendo for christmas and amazing some of the best games on any nintendo system and i think that's pretty much what got me into gaming i love video games and um yeah and also i wish everybody a very merry christmas and a happy new year happy holidays my name is chase yama and one of my proudest accomplishments from 2021 has just been how much fun i've been having with content creation between making videos on youtube streaming on twitch and posting short form content on instagram and tick tock i've just been having a blast sharing my creativity with the world and i think being stuck at home a lot during this year has helped me realize how much fun i have making this kind of stuff for now happy holidays everyone thank you for watching and i hope to see you again soon bye i actually have a couple of favorite holiday memories that come to mind they are number one is when my sister and minnie sorla always come up and come over darren and a couple weeks before christmas we always get the christmas tree down from the loft and put it in the room and put up and into all the christmas decorations all around house make it very very christmassy and the second one is when we get our christmas eve boxes christmas eve we all get the same matching jammies that we wear christmas morning now let's say merry christmas and happy new year to you david franco and your family hopefully 2022 is a better year forever in this world merry christmas happy new year david hi david it's trina from treatment wandering so my favorite memory of this holiday is seeing christmas signs of my family seeing santa and spending time with my family and open presents so that is my favorite memory this holiday and also i have a christmas tree by zola christmas tree and also my pink christmas tree is over there so yeah merry christmas david defranco and i subscribe to you and i'm a fan of yours and merry christmas peace hello it's monkeys duck and i'm the thing i'm most proud what i accomplished this year is finally going outside uh with my panic attacks and anxiety after uh three years i'm very proud um i did this i'm very proud of what i'm doing things trying to make myself more confident in this last year especially with covered and everything um and i'm hoping to carry on until next year um i hope you all have a good and safe christmas happy holidays merry christmas to thank her to thank your family family and fellow patrons and probably the most memorable christmas i have had probably the most memorable present i've ever had earliest person i remember was the game boy and health system and i say that everywhere to my nan's house to my aunt and uncles to everywhere and that that's something i did that's something i kept doing from the gameboy um advance game boy sp to the nintendo ds 3ds and now the switch oh i said i can't get into my uncles but i do take it i'm watching my places and that really all started and that's probably that's the earliest limited present that's the earliest because i mean i have i probably gonna misremember i have a very merry christmas guys see you in the new year hello everybody it's bmac345 here or brennan first off i just wanted to thank david for doing the youtube holiday the past couple years that i've been doing it's been fun and i look forward to doing it um each year that i've been doing it so um and secondly i'd like to uh take a second to wish everybody a merry christmas and a happy holidays i hope everybody is staying safe out there and hope you all have a great holidays um so david asked for us to do one question i'm gonna do all three um so the first one is what is one thing you are proud to have accomplished in the past 12 months i would say losing weight um so ever since i had gotten out of high school over the past like about four or five years i've kind of gotten a little overweight for my for my size um and i was able to lose about 30 pounds so that was um really cool to be able to do uh secondly was is a favorite holiday memory that always comes to mind um i would say probably um i would say just always always going in um each year going to a tree farm and getting a tree and then going to um broner's which is a christmas store um near me and just always going there with family and being around with family and stuff like that i would say that's a that's a memory that always just comes around every year um and we do that every year as well um what are some of your favorite holiday foods um i always like i always like a ham i was like eating ham um your occasional you know maybe like apple pie um i mean this is more of a candy but i do like i do like candy canes i do like reese's trees i think reese's trees taste the best literally out of all the reese's um with that being said i want to take up too much time hope again everybody has a happy holidays has a merry christmas and i will talk to you guys later merry christmas hey david and viewers of david it's dan coming to you from the frozen tundra that is minnesota brrrr you want to know just how cold it is hang on let me consult my watch here what's the current temperature it's 19 degrees outside yeah but here's the kicker that's without the windchill with the windchill is it feels closer to 10 so yeah brrrr so i just thought for this little thing here that i'd share one of my family's favorite christmas traditions over the years now this is definitely a more recent one for us but the thing that i've enjoyed as part of our more recent traditions is that instead we're instead of doing a thing like ham or turkey or whatever for for our christmas dinner we've instead been moving to things just like little appetizers i remember in one of our recent years we just did like a little baked potato bar and hey i actually quite enjoyed that not quite the same as your usual ham turkey or whatever else but you know what hey we've made it work and with that i hope you and everyone else out there have a very merry christmas happy hanukkah or whatever else you decide to celebrate and a very happy and healthy 2022. so guys logan here uh just want to say hope you guys have a merry christmas happy holidays happy new years whenever you're watching this just hope you guys are staying healthy and everything's doing good for you guys um my goals for 2022 is basically stay healthy stay consistent and um i i just want to i want to continue to grow my channel and yeah just just all around meet new people and enjoy life just really about it just basically enjoy life the way it is and let the good times you know roll out and yeah all right guys have a great one what's up youtube it's danny um i thought i'd go ahead and participate in this year's christmas holiday that david always does uh so i'm gonna talk about the food portion i guess like my favorite foods on christmas usually ham love ham stuffing love stuffing it's almost like thanksgiving part two really because we my family we eat a lot of the same food that we have on thanksgiving we have again for christmas i know some people like goose or duck i've had duck on uh on christmas before um and it's good but usually it's turkey stuffing um cranberry sauce and yeah stuff like that rolls and stuff and i love fruitcake i don't know why everybody hates fruitcake so much i don't get it i think for greg is good obviously uh fudge is the thing um a lot of chocolate candies all kinds of get now you guys probably know i have to watch all that nowadays but you know before i had to watch all that i could just eat whatever i wanted um but yeah just it's basically thanksgiving part two that's just something we do when we do get together um so yeah it is what it is also uh i made it i made it a little christmas themed for you oh i'm going over i'm going over time i'm sorry david hold on let me just real quick i just wanna show the lights and you can cut out any other any other stuff look i got my nano leaf lights doing the christmas theme so yeah there you go sorry david i went way over 60 seconds please forgive okay merry merry christmas and and yeah these are my lights for this year so hi david hi everyone i'm so happy to be a part of the holiday club once again this year um something i am proud of that i've accomplished in this past 12 months is after years of struggling and fighting i was finally able to get an ssi or disability for those not in the states so it gives me a little bit more financial freedom than you know before so happy that's finally taken care of and now going to 2022 i can make plans to be able to travel more and all that stuff so i'm looking
