10 outta 10.
Mm-hmm.
But probably not up to herstandards.
No.
Whatever.
Anyway, so yeah.
So, uh, what do you, what do yougot on the go with the reading
and the, okay,

Carrie (10:07):
so I finished the book, I talked about last week, the
mile high.
And it was really good.
Really enjoyed it up until thevery end.
I like, I loved the whole thing.
There was nothing I didn't likeabout it.
And now I'm on the second.
So the first one was about ahockey player.
The second one's about abasketball player.
So in the first story, in thefirst book story, The girl's
name was Stevie.

(10:28):
And so the second book is abouther brother Ryan.
And he is like the star of thebasketball team.
And, Stevie's friend needed aplace to stay so she moved in
with, Ryan.
Yeah.
Cuz she, like her boyfriendbroke up with her, so she needed
somewhere to stay and it's likea fake dating vibe.
Okay.
Which I love fake datingstories.
Yeah, me too.
I really do.
I just, I always love it.

(10:48):
So they're roommates and they'refake dating.
Good.
So I'm really excited.
It's been good so far.
Good.
I'm not, I'm not very far in it.
I just, I know him well cuz hewas like a pretty big, like a
decently big character in thefirst book, so, yeah.
Sounds good.
Yeah.
And then I'm doing, I'mlistening to my audiobook, which
I know we talked about, but I'mlistening to Don't Let Her Stay

(11:08):
by Nicole Sanders.
And I'm, I know I'm going tolove it because I've read all
the reviews on it, and they'reamazing.
Like every single review islike, this psychological
thriller is one of the best.
The twist was amazing.
So many five star reviews forit, but I'm 33% in, and I'm
still like, let's go.

(11:29):
Like I'm waiting for the, I'mholding strong, but I'm waiting
for the, it's a, I needed to ripme.
The, so the synopsis, what itsays on the back is, someone in
your house wants you dead, butno one believes you.
That's what the book's about.
Duh duh,

Kristine (11:45):
duh.
So where's the creepy button?
Oh, do we

Carrie (11:47):
think we have one?
I thought we did.
Oh, nope.
Not that one.
That's spooky.
Spooky.
What else we got?
Um, try one more.
Okay.
I'll try one more.

Kristine (11:57):
Oh.
Oh

Carrie (12:00):
wow.
That I liked that one.
Yeah, I liked that one too.
Um, so it's good.
It's about a woman and herhusband.
They have a newborn baby andthey live in like this really
big mansion out, out of themajor city, like outside London
suburb type thing.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And his daughter, Chloe comesand starts living with them and

(12:21):
they were kind of estrangedbefore that.
And that's, that's the premise.
But not much else has happenedyet.
Again, 33% in like, I'm waitingfor.
So who thinks,

Kristine (12:30):
who, no, no one yet.
No one thinks that they're gonnadie.
No,

Carrie (12:35):
I'm still,

Kristine (12:36):
oh, man.
So, no, they're, they don'tallude to anything.
No, no.
What are they talking

Carrie (12:43):
about?
Well, you got to know her.
You got to know him.
The daughter moves in.
I hate the husband.
Oh yeah.
Like I wanna throw some, I told,I texted you about that.
Yeah.
I just wanna throw something athim.

Kristine (12:52):
He's a dick.
Yeah.
Not

Carrie (12:54):
cool, bro.
No.
And he stands up for hisdaughter all the time, which is
amazing.
Unless your daughter's a littlesnob and then it's not.
Yeah.
Interesting.
So I'm struggling, like, I'mgonna, I'm gonna finish it and I
have a feeling I'm gonna loveit.
I just, when you're, when you, Ionly listen to it when I walk.
Right, right.
So it's, yeah.
It's taking some time to

Kristine (13:13):
get in.
I'm a very impatient person whenit comes to like watching a show
and I like, or listening to abook or reading a book, like I
need to just do it right thenand there.
Like, yeah.
I hate watching an episode andthen watching another episode a
week later.
Yeah.
I.
Uh, like Jace can just shut itoff at the end of the night.
Yeah.
And I'm like, no, no, no, no,no.
We don't know what's gonnahappen.

(13:33):
We need, we need to go at leastone more.
That's fair.
Fair.
At least one more.
So that's hard for me to likemm-hmm.
You know,

Carrie (13:39):
cause I only listen to it when I'm walking.
Yeah.

Kristine (13:41):
It's like my treat.
Yeah.
That Well cuz I mean, it keepsme motivated.
I would just not come home.
I keep

Carrie (13:46):
walking.
That was me the other day when Iwas with my last book.
I'm like, well I gotta finishthis.
Yeah.
I keep on walking, burning ahole in your shoes.
But yeah, so that's kind of whatI have on the go right now.
Nothing crazy cuz I'm not,nothing's happening in the audio
book.
And I just started the otherbook.
Nice.
Called The Right Move, by theway, by, um, Liz Tom Ford.
It's the second book in theWindy City series.
That's what I'm

Kristine (14:06):
reading.
Nice.
Yeah.
Cool.

Carrie (14:08):
How about you?
You're still reading the I

Kristine (14:10):
Am Pucking around reading Pucking around.
Carrie brought this one up.
Uh, Two, three episodes ago,something like that.
Yeah.
You talked about it last week.
Yeah.
And so I'm still on that.
I'm about 80% done and Ifreaking love it.
It's so good.
It is filthy.
And I love it.
Mm-hmm.
There is a lot happening.

(14:30):
When they get it on it.
Like, it just, yeah.
I, I feel like I'm part of it.
Like, it's just, they're verydescriptive.
So descriptive and I like thatshe's a great author.
Great.
Yeah.
So it's, um, pucking around, uh,written by Emily Rath and she
does such a good job.
Mm-hmm.
I just, I Who's your, cuz you'veread it before, obviously we've

(14:53):

So to be clear, so there's um, afemale, um, and then there's
three males in the story thatare like the, because there's
Jake, there's Caleb, and thenthere's um, I Omar.
So Mars.
Yeah, Mars.
And then there's um, Rachel.

Last episode.
Pulling at my notes.
Yeah.
Good.

Carrie (16:58):
Okay.
Okay.
So we're gonna jump right intothis episode.
This is the one that I didn'tthink we'd get so many questions
on, and we have been, yes.

Kristine (17:08):
Um, I would say this is the, about 90% of the
questions that we've had, we arealways asking to, uh, for you
guys to send in your questionsvia Instagram or email.
Uh, we've thrown up the questionboxes on Instagram, and this is,
this is the big one.
Mm-hmm.
So today's episode we're doing,uh, we're gonna talk all about

(17:29):
our family and family dynamicand how that works.
Mm-hmm.
So, go ahead, Carrie.

Carrie (17:34):
Kick it off.
Okay.
So we did have a lot ofquestions about our kids.
Mm-hmm.
And so I do wanna say, I'm gonnapreface this whole thing, that
everyone's really different withhow they parent, and we're
totally respecting that, um,what works for you might not
work for us.
Christine and I, like, we alsoparent different.
Mm-hmm.
Like, everyone's different, andwe're not judging what your

(17:55):
choices are or what you chooseto do.
So I hope no one takes thisepisode as this is what's right.
What you're doing is wrong.
Because that's not, it's not,that's not the case.
That's not it.
No, no.
We're just here to discuss whatworks for us.
Yeah.
And what we've found to work forus, especially as we've grown,
um, our business and grown our,our personal social media
profiles too.

(18:15):
It, it changes how things happenwithin.
Your

Kristine (18:18):
life, I think.
Exactly.
I agree with that a hundredpercent.
Mm-hmm.
Very well said.
Yeah.
Thank you.
You've been practicing.

Carrie (18:24):
I can feel it.
Yeah, I did.
Yeah.
In the mirror.
I have in the mirror last night.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Like three hours of practicing,so I can tell.

Kristine (18:31):
Yeah.
Yeah.
Very reverse.
I figured.
okay.
Well that's a really good placeto start.
Mm-hmm.
So why don't we talk about oursocial media and, uh, yeah.
Our children and, uh, what, whatthat's

Carrie (18:41):
like.
Yeah.
So we got a lot of commentsabout, you know, it was so nice
to hear that.
And again, if you ask thesequestions or you made these
comments, we're not offendedwe're we, don't, we just want,
we like to clarify.
Yeah.
We, you ask away, you let usknow your things, but a lot of
things like, oh, it's so nice tohear that you get to spend so
much time with your kids.

(19:02):
Okay.
I have never in my daughter'sentire life put pictures of her
on social media.
Um, it was a hard boundary formy husband and I from the
get-go, and as my social mediaplatform has grown.
I've kept that prettyconsistent.
Mm-hmm.
I mean, if you see a glimpse ofBrooke, it's like in a story and
it's gone.
Yeah.
Like it's, she's quick and it'susually the back or the side of

(19:24):
her face.
That's just my comfort level.
Um, I, I do wholeheartedlybelieve it's her decision if she
wants to be on social media.
I have 2,500 followers onInstagram and it's just, that's
my comfort level.
Mm-hmm.
So, you know, I know it mightlook like we're never with her.
Mm-hmm.
But she's always there.
Yes.
It's just, if I'm gonna show astory or if I'm gonna take a

(19:47):
photo, it's, it's usuallyexcluding her on purpose.
Yeah.
It, it that, that's how it worksfor us.
Yeah.
So, you know, you might haveseen stories of us in Canmore or
see story of us as stories of usin the pool and it's just
Christine and I or it's just thefour of us, the adults.
It's, that's, that's on purpose.
Yes.
It's not cuz the kids aren'tthere.

(20:08):
Yes.

Kristine (20:09):
The kids are well loved.
Um, they are around and they arehaving.
Such a good life.
Mm-hmm.
And, um, they get to do so manycool things and we include them
in most of our out, like ouractivities.
Mm-hmm.
It's just, we don't share them.
So I, we started, Jason and Ishared a lot of our daughter on

(20:30):
social media, um, in thebeginning.
And then within just six toeight months we've really slowed
that down.
And then, um, I just shut it offcompletely.
I actually went through myInstagram and deleted every
photo of her mm-hmm.
Off of it.
Just cuz I, because our socialmedia has grown.
Um, same, I just, the internetis, sometimes can be a little

(20:52):
creepy.
And I just wanted to protect heras much as I can for my, for our
personal preference.
Um, a lot of you, if you've beenfollowing l b for a while, you
know that s Scarlett was in alot of our, our photos, like on
our website.
Mm-hmm.
She's no longer in them.
I mean, she's.
If there's anything older on thewebsite still, sure those fi
photos might be there, butotherwise I just have chosen to

(21:16):
cut that off.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
And I'm happy to do so.
If there's stock photos fromlet's say ampersand, I will
happy to use those rather thanuse Scarlet.
A hundred percent.
It just, I'm happy to berecognized outside of the
public.
I don't want my child to be

Carrie (21:29):
recognized out in the public.
I know, you know, and Brookecame home one day, and this is
fine also, please don't thinkthat you're creeping me out or
creeping out my child oranything.
But Brooke said, Hey mom.
Um, one of my friends wastalking about how, you know her
mom knows who you are.
And I'm like, and how, like, howdid that make you feel?
And she's like, I actually thinkit's really cool.
And I'm like, perfect.
But I never want her to feeluncomfortable.

(21:50):
Yeah.
I never, you know, so I'm verycareful with what I show.
I, um, about six months ago,maybe more, six months ago, I
think, um, someone actuallyduplicated my Instagram profile.
Yeah.
I think it was, yeah, maybe lastyear, may a year ago probably.
And they took photos and I haveone photo of our daughters on my

(22:13):
whole Instagram feed.
It's gone now.
Um, and it's not even the mainphoto.
And this person took it and putit on and made it a photo within
the grid.
And it made me like, thatcreeped me out.
Mm-hmm.
Not only are you using me andthe fact that I have an
Instagram following to likeprofit mm-hmm.

(22:33):
But you just took a photo of mychild and that's, that yuckies
me out.
Yeah.
I don't like that.
And we know a lot of boutiqueowners in the US where they have
a pretty big, um, following and,you know, like knockoff sites.
We'll take the photos of theirkids and use them to advertise
clothing.
Mm-hmm.
We'll, It's

Kristine (22:53):
gross.
I just don't like that it'syucky.
I just don't like it.
No.
So it's, it's been a lot less,or not at all, and that's why,
but our kids are around.
They're always there happy andYeah.
They're always with us.
Um mm-hmm.
If they're not with us, they'reprobably with a grandparent.
Yeah.
Like they're always with us.

Carrie (23:13):
Yeah.
When we go to Vegas, forexample.
Yeah.
Like, we're just about to go toVegas in August and our kids
will, will, I know that mydaughter for sure is gonna be
with her grandparents.

Kristine (23:21):
Yeah.
Same as Carl.
She's gonna be with hergrandparents.
Mm-hmm.
Which is so nice.
So it is nice for them.
They're, they're happy, they'reloved.
They're just not on the

Carrie (23:29):
social media.
No, no.
You won't catch them there.
So, and if, you know, if you,you do the opposite and you put
your kids on your social media.
I'm not judging you.
Like that's, that's yourdecision.
It's just for my comfort leveland for what worked for us and
for the fact that we'recontinuing to build, you know,
um, Our business and ourpodcast.

(23:51):
And so of course our socialmedia gets more attention than
mm-hmm.

Kristine (23:55):
You know, different strokes for different folks.
Yep.
And that's cool.
Yeah, you do.
You

Carrie (23:59):
will do us.
Yeah.
And you know, cuz my, myInstagram page, my personal
isn't focused around family.
Right.
You know, that's not, that's notwhat my page is around.
Yeah.
So it makes sense.

Kristine (24:10):
There you go.
Yeah.
Makes sense to me.
Thanks.
I do the same.
I do the same, but you know.
Yeah.
Makes sense.
It's just, it is what it, we'rehappy with how we do it.
Um, okay.
So, There's one question we'vegot Oh, quite a few times.
Yeah.
Why do we have one child?
And, and it's funny that we bothhave one child.

(24:31):
It's funny.
So how, what's your reason forhaving one child?
Okay.
So I

Carrie (24:36):
always knew I only wanted one.
Yeah.
This, this was, it's not like Imade the decision later.
Um, I always knew one was kindof gonna be my thing.
Um, I do have siblings.
They are my half siblings, andmy sister is the one that I'm
closest in age with, but she'sstill seven years older than me.
So I grew up.
As an only child in myhousehold.

(24:58):
Essentially it was just my mom,my dad, and me.
Mm-hmm.
Like, that's how we grew up.
And so I, I really enjoyed beingan only child.
I know some people don't.
I really do enjoy it.
And, you know, you hear a lotOh.
When, you know, when you're,when you're older and your
parents, you know, your parentspass away, who are you gonna
have?
Well, I still have a supportsystem in my life and It's, I, I

(25:19):
have other family.
I have my husband, I have mydaughter.
I have you like You know, it'snot, I don't, I don't like that
argument because I don't.
I don't

Kristine (25:28):
think it's a hundred percent accurate.
Family is not what you're bornwith.
It's what you make of it.
No.

Carrie (25:31):
Yeah.
So for me, that wasn't really anargument that I ever, ever
believed in, and I just, I knewthat I wanted to travel a lot.
Which we do.
And I knew it would be mostfeasible with one child.
And I just only wanted one.
Yeah.
Like, I, I'm not, you know,growing up or when I was a young
adult, I ne I'm not one of thosepeople.

(25:52):
And I was never one of thosepeople that wanted tons of kids.
I, you know, some people justlike know they wanna be a mom.
I like, I knew I wanted a child,but it was never like, oh my
God, I must be a mom.
I just, I didn't have that.
Yeah.
So I was happy to only have one.
My husband, he was, the funniestthing is Nick didn't even know
if he wanted kids, but he's likethe best dad.

(26:15):
Yeah.
So that's funny for me.
But he was happy with whatever Ihad decided.
And then after we had brick and.
I lived the first six months ofher life, I knew Yeah.
Like I knew mm-hmm.
That I was never, ever riskinghaving a colicky baby again.
Because when I tell you that, ittraumatized me, I am not making

(26:36):
that up.
You know, like borderline PTSDon that one.
Yeah.
I, that was a hard time.

Kristine (26:43):
So, no, I totally understand that.
That was me.
And I mean, I was, I was there,I saw it, I saw, I saw the
aftermath, did lots of bopping.
Yes.
I held Brooke and bopped her,just like held her and like
patted her bum.
Mm-hmm.
Uh, but she, it worked for herlike really

Carrie (26:58):
well.
It did really well.
Mm-hmm.
It worked, right?
Mm-hmm.
She had a couple things thatwould work mm-hmm.
For like 10 minutes.
Yeah.
And during those whole 10minutes, I remember always being
like, oh God, when are you gonnastart crying again?
Yeah.

Kristine (27:08):
It's terrifying.
Um, so for myself, and for myhusband, we, I personally wanted
four kids, so I, A litter.
Yeah.
I have two sisters.
Um, And growing up was, it wasinteresting.
It was fun.
Like, I mean, I have, they'retwo very different people for
myself.
So like, it wasn't always anexperience and there was always

(27:29):
somebody around.
So like, I kind of knew that Iwanted to have more.
Um, but then, um, I, we had avery hard time getting pregnant.
It was just a whole, we do awhole episode on stuff like that
or mm-hmm.
Bring that up into other, onanother episode.
Um, but, so I had a whole whackof troubles getting pregnant.

(27:53):
Um, Then, um, when we finallyhad Scarlet, she wouldn't sleep.
She wouldn't sleep and it wasreally hard.
Um, my husband only wanted oneto two.
So because like me, he's an onlychild.
Yes.
He is an only child and he'svery happy with being an only
child.
He thinks it's great.
He has half, he has halfsiblings as well, but he was

(28:15):
raised as an only child.
Um, two weeks after Scarlet wasborn, he was like, so can I get
snipped?
And I'm like, hold up sir.
Let's give it a hot minute.
Mm-hmm.
Let's chill.
Uh, and we'll make a decision alittle bit down the road.
Um, So after I think the firstyear I was like, no.
Like, this one is good.

(28:36):
I'm very happy.
I'm very, very lucky that I wasactually able to have her in the
first place.

Carrie (28:41):
And it's not a cheap, it wasn't a cheap

Kristine (28:42):
experience.
No.
And it was like I had to gothrough surgeries.
Mm-hmm.
And like, it was not, it was notgood.
So I was very content withhaving one.
Um, also like Carrie, um, I, welove to travel and I just can't,
can't imagine having mm-hmm.
More little scarlets runningaround cuz sometimes it's hard

(29:02):
to tr even travel with one.
I just, I hope this doesn't comeoff as wrong, but I really like
our life in mm-hmm.
With one and our lifestyle withhaving one.
So it just, for us, it seemedright to keep just having one.
So we're very happy and like,you know, we, we did things for
precautionary if we ever lostour minds and we ended up
wanting another one.

(29:23):
Mm-hmm.
Then we had those options fordown the road.
But we are very happy and verycontent and.
We ask Scarlet all the time,like, did you want, do you want
a sibling?
And she's like, no, Brooke.

Carrie (29:34):
Brooke.
I thinks

Kristine (29:34):
like God no.
And they, the two of themtogether?
Mm-hmm.
Like they've got sibling energy.
Oh yeah.
Hard.
Yeah.
So like, we're

Carrie (29:41):
good.
They're fine.
Yeah.
And they're fine.

Kristine (29:44):
Yeah.
Jay Jayce, he's very contentwith one.
Mm-hmm.
And he's so happy and I'm happy.

Carrie (29:50):
Do you remember when you, uh, thought you were having
another

Kristine (29:54):
who That was awful.
Yeah.
No, not awful.
Like, but scary because we werevery content with having one and
I took a pregnancy test.
You guys, this is, this storyis, this is Wild.
So I took a pregnancy test andit.
It showed there was a secondline.
Oh yeah.
There was a hard,

Carrie (30:12):
absolute second.
It was faint line, but it was adefinite second line.
Yep.

Kristine (30:16):
It was, I showed Jace and he immediately got, grabbed
his computer and started lookingfor new houses because we only
had one room upstairs.
It was Scarlet's room upstairswith us.
Right.
Yeah.
So like we didn't have the spacefor a second child.
We, um, I was panicking.
I was sending Carrie photos ofthe pregnancy test.

(30:38):
Uh, she was sending it off toher other friends that are like
across the world.
Mm-hmm.
Like, can you confirm if this isright?
Yeah.
And I can't remember.
I went for blood work a coupledays later and it, nothing.
The H

Carrie (30:53):
C G and you took a, you took another test the next day
too, and it was negative.
Negative.
Like you had a, but j bought youlike half the

Kristine (30:58):
pharmacy, I think.
Yeah.
And yeah, my blood work showedlike the H C G wasn't getting
any bigger, like there was just

Carrie (31:04):
no, it was just

Kristine (31:04):
negative.
I had a.
False positive, which are rare.
So rare, but of course naturallyithappened to, of, of course,
happen to.
But like, I, I've never seenJays grab his computer so fast.
Like he's like, we have to get anew house.
Like, where are we gonna putthis kid?
And I'm like, okay, let's, let'stake a minute here.
Take a pause.
It was, that was terrifying.

(31:24):
But I, if we would, if itwould've been positive, like an
actual positive Yeah, of course.
We would've been so happy But weweren't there yet.
No.
But of course you

Carrie (31:33):
guys spent like years and years trying to have a baby,
couldn't, and then you didn'twant one and one would've
happened.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Which again, would've been fine,but.
Yeah, exactly.
Just you, just, that's not yourwere content.
Yes, I was.
Yeah,

Kristine (31:46):
I was, it was, it was a be a surprise.
Yeah.
And if you, like, like we saidat the very beginning of this
episode, you guys, if you havemultiple children or you like
mm-hmm.
You know, we're not sayingthat's not a good thing and a
great thing.
It is.
It's a awesome thing.
It's just we, our personal livesor our personal feelings, it's
just one is we're good with one,so please don't take any of
this.
Um, no.

(32:07):
As like right or wrong oranything like that.
No.
It's just how we feel withhaving Yeah.
And our families, our fa everyfamily is different, so, and we

Carrie (32:15):
spend a lot of time together.
Yes.
You know, we travel together, wespend weekends together, so our
kids get that siblingexperience.
Yeah.
They're fine.

Kristine (32:27):
They just get to go to different houses at night.
Mm-hmm.
It's great.
It is.
It's awesome.
Its good for everybody.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
So that's, uh, that's our one,our reason for one.
I'm checking things off.
Good,

Carrie (32:40):
good.
Um, we did get a question on, doyou guys have nannies?

Kristine (32:44):
Yep.
That was my next one.
Oh, yeah, right on the listthere.
Yeah.
So we do not have nannies.
No.
our husbands are, they stayhome.
I use this lightly.
Mm-hmm.
Like they do other things on thesides, but they, um, stay home
and they raise our childrenmm-hmm.
With us.
Um, they just were very, veryfortunate enough that they are

(33:04):
the ones who drive them toschool and pick them up mm-hmm.
And drive them to their, um,activities, um, et cetera, et
cetera.
So we do not have carrie'sknocking and down the place.
We don't have nannies, we havemannies, we

Carrie (33:17):
do have mannies.
We do.
And if my husband would'vecontinued working as much as he
did before, um, he quoteunquote, Retired, I don't know
how you want to call it, becauseYeah.
Before he stopped working, hewas working, 13, 14 hour days we
would have gone that route.

(33:38):
Yeah.
Just because there's no way wecould have made it work properly
otherwise.
And not even a nanny to, raiseBrook, but someone to do
everything else.
Yes.
So that we could spend as muchtime with Brooke as possible.
Exactly.
But this, this has worked somuch better because I feel like
our kids get that full parentexperience still.
Yeah.
You know?

Kristine (33:56):
Yeah.
And our, both of our husbandsstill do work.
Um, they just, it's a lot slowerand Um, my husband still does
photography here, um, at L L B,but it's just not a full-time
gig.
And Carrie's husband, same does,he doesn't have a full-time gig.
Mm-hmm.
Except for.
Right now he's doing a littlebit more work.
He's building our house.

(34:17):
Yeah.
So I mean, he's very busy withthat.
But no nannies.
No nannies, no.
And I agree with you.
If Jace was still working, withhis old employer, um, working in
the oil field, then, then yeah,we, we would have to go the
nanny route as well.
Mm-hmm.
Because he was gone for a weekat a time and we worked a here,
so it's just, there would'vebeen no, no time to do things

(34:40):
and mm-hmm.
I want to do the things with my,with my family and Yeah.
Be with them as much aspossible.
So, because

Carrie (34:46):
family time is really important to both of us.
Yeah.
We do, you know, yes.
We spend a lot of time together,but don't be deceived either.
We do have a ton of time just athome mm-hmm.
With our separate families.
Yeah.
Um, so for us, my daughter hasactivities after school, a
couple days a week, threeactually right now, but we
always make sure we sit down todinner together.

(35:06):
That's important.
Um, except for one night a week,Brooke gets to.
Have dinner and watch TV in herroom.
That's like, that's so cool.
She loves that.
Yeah.
But otherwise, we always dodinner together.
That's something we definitelyfocus on.
Um, and then after dinner,Brooke has time, like screen
time or whatever, but we alwayscome together at the end of the

(35:27):
evening and spend a good chunktogether.
Or whether we watch a movie foran hour or, I know I mentioned
this before, we'll play Uno orgo if it's nice, we'll go
outside.
It always varies depending onseason, but we do spend a lot of
time together during the week aswell.
Yeah, same.
And same with Sundays.
Yes.
It's Sundays is a family day.
Always.
Unless it's 30 degrees outside,that's a little

Kristine (35:47):
different, but yeah.
Yeah.
Same with us.
Um, Scarlet has her activitiesafter school and so Jason and I
split those.
Um, well, it's not split evenly.
Jace does, um, two nights out ofthe three, I do the third is
what I'm trying to say.
Um, I take Scarlet to heractivities or.
We'll go together if, um mm-hmm.

(36:07):
If it works out that way.
Um, just to be able to watch asa family and, um mm-hmm.
And same with, same with Carrie.
We kind of do that same thingwhere we always make sure we
have that end of the night isalways our, our time.
And we also, morning is a bigone for us.
Um, Scarlet wakes up just alittle bit earlier, like, I

(36:27):
don't wanna say earlier,earlier, but she get, we have a
decent amount of time that I sitwith my coffee and I sit on the
couch with Scarlet and we hangout and Jace does, he's not
doing anything else either.
He just sits and hangs out withus.
Yeah.
That's really nice.
For 20 minutes, 30 minutes,depending on mm-hmm.
What time we all get up and areready And, um, we do that before
we even start getting ready.

(36:48):
We just hang out and that's oneof our favorite things to do.
And um, yeah, we're alwaysmaking sure we focus on having
that family time.
It's the best.
And it is nice.
We do dinners too, like we sitdown.
That's very important.
No iPads a lot at the, at thetable?
No, no, no tv.
We just sit down.
No problems.
No tv.

Carrie (37:06):
Just, yeah.
Yeah.
We usually, usually just havemusic on and then we're eating.
Yeah.

Kristine (37:10):
I I love doing that.
Me too.
It's one of my favorites.
Me too.
Especially in the summer when wecan go sit on the deck, like
that's the best.
It really is.
There are some music on and justchill.
Love it.
Hang out.
Yeah.
So yeah, we, uh, we absolutelymake sure we have our family
time.
it almost looks like we, wedon't have less Yeah.
Family time because of justsocial media.

(37:31):
Like it's the big highlightreel, but like you guys don't
see that.
I make sure that I'm sittingthere with my coffee mm-hmm.
In the morning for half an hour,um, enjoying my, morning time.
And

Carrie (37:42):
we, we also, also do something else really big.
We go to Maui for five to sixweeks of the year.
Mm-hmm.
Every year in December.
we've been doing this forprobably Brook's whole life,
but, you guys started coming aswell the last couple years, but
we go to Maui for five weeks ofthe year.
Mm-hmm.
So we spend five weeksconsistently with our kids.
Like consecutively.

(38:03):
Yeah.
We are, we are with them forfive weeks.
Solid.
Yes.
24

Kristine (38:06):
7.
And like we, we work, like we'lldo, obviously we have to work a
little bit while we're there,but we'll do like three hours a
day, not even.
Mm-hmm.
Um, just because we have to, wedo have to have to get that
time.
But, uh, we are literallyspending all day together, like
with our family and all nightand in Maui, because we were

(38:29):
talking about our separatefamily time.
We also have those familyseparate times in Maui too.
Yeah.
Which is really good.
And everybody loves that.
And I mean, it's like, Probablyfive days of the week that we're
together.
But we'll have those days.
Yeah.
Where we'll go to the pool orYeah.
Or even we are at the beachtogether and you would walk past
us thinking we're too separatefamilies.
Cause we're just hanging out.

(38:50):
Hanging out.
Yeah.
So yeah, it'ss important, but wemake it, we make it work and we
make it a priority.
Absolutely.

Carrie (38:58):
Yeah.
And um, You know, on the flipside, we also make a lot of time
and priority for just datenights with our husbands.
Yes.
Um, whether it's the four of usgoing out together or, you know,
just us separate, separatefamilies.
Yeah, exactly.
Um, my husband and I have alwaysdone date nights.

(39:18):
That's always been somethingthat's been very important since
Brooke was little.
Little.
Mm-hmm.
We would even just do like anhour together when she was
really young cuz I wasbreastfeeding, so I couldn't
leave for very long.
Um, but yeah, we, we've alwaysdone date nights and they've
always been super important tous.
Um, sometimes we'll just do likestaycations downtown.
Mm-hmm.

(39:38):
We'll just.
Go for dinner and stay downtown.
You love those us?
Me too.
So nice.
We really nice do too.
We actually are planning oneright now.
Um, so that's, that's importantto us.
So that's also very important tofamily too, I think is like
making sure you get those datenights even if it's at home.
Yeah, we do those often.
I was just gonna say, I wasthinking about you guys.

Kristine (39:57):
So Jason and I love our at home date nights, so
we'll get scrolled to bed.
Um, we'll, Jason, we really liketo make couch beds.

Carrie (43:00):
I'm a shit disturber.

Yeah.
Um, but we actually don't, um, Ivery much consider Nick to be
like my brother figure.

Physically and like verbally.
Um, but yeah, we are just very

Feel like on the outside, likesomething might be different
with us, but No.
Um, and uh, Carrie is very closewith Jace and Yeah.
Jace and Nick are very close.

(44:00):
Yeah.
So like Carrie and Jace go ondate nights and that doesn't
bother.
No.
Like, it's just No, they'refriends and so

Carrie (44:07):
Yeah.
Like, it's not, it's not asexual thing.
Yeah.
We're just, we're friends and Iknow that a lot of couples have
different rules of what worksfor them and their different
dynamics, but for us, we're alljust really good friends.
Mm-hmm.
And so, you know, just as muchas Christine and I would go to a
concert together, Jason and Iwould go to a concert together.
Exactly.
Right.
Like we're just friends andthere was a concert, it was, um,

(44:30):
Chris Stapleton and no onewanted You mean Mark?
Yeah.
Mark Stapleton.
And no one wanted to go to meetwith me, but Jace really did.
And I was like, okay, let's go.
Yeah.
And I guess to the, you know,for some friends that just might
not work.
Mm-hmm.
And that might be out of yourcomfort zone, but

Kristine (44:46):
I don't wanna go.
So like, who'll make me go.
So Jason, take somebody whowants to go with you.
Yeah.
So we went for dinner.

Carrie (44:52):
Yeah.
We went for drinks.
Yeah.
We went to a concert and we wentfor more drinks after.

Kristine (44:55):
Yeah.
It's perfect.
Yeah.
Nick.
Nick and I always plan concerts,but they always get freaking
canceled.
They do like every single time.
Like Foo Fighters, we weresupposed to go to Smashing
Pumpkins, we were supposed to goto canceled.
Yeah.
Something else.
I don't know.
But what a bummer.
It was such

Carrie (45:10):

You and Nick went on a romanticflying trip.
We

Kristine (45:18):
uh, we uh, went on a sea plane cuz we both wanted to
go so bad and like, we bothreally like.
Not, I wouldn't call it likeextreme things, but we like to
do those.
Like we wanna go skydiving andthe two of us will go, but
Jason, Carrie will not.
No.
So we'll, we'll just blend thosethings together.
Screw you guys.

Jason.
And I had lots of fun.
Okay.
Yeah.
We went and got drunk on the, ona patio.

Like, so I, I just can't, forus, I can't imagine saying like,
I wanna do this.
Will you go with me, Carrie?
And you say, no, I don't wantto.
And then like, my, my optionsare nav low.
Like I either, you know, go bymyself or like Jace goes with
me, but he's dis he doesn'twanna be there.
Mm-hmm.
So like, I'll take that guy whoactually wants to go.

(46:05):
Yeah.
Yeah.
And it works really well for us.
It really does.
So I, I

Carrie (46:10):
understand.
I can, I, and cuz I've askedthis to people that know us
really well and I'm like, I.
Do you see why people thinkthat?
And they're like, oh,absolutely.
Yeah.
And I'm like, well, yeah, Iguess me too.
Totally.
But that's not, that's not howit, that's not how it goes down.

Kristine (46:23):
No, no.
Like we might make jokes, butwe're literally just joking.
Yeah.

really cool dynamic.

Kristine (46:49):
Yeah.
We want to spend our timetogether and we know, and we
understand our boundary of whenwe need time apart.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
And I think that That is a veryrare, rare thing to find In a

personality, there's a lot goingon.

So like to have those, likepretty much unspoken boundaries.
Mm-hmm.
That's a huge Yeah.
Thing for us.
It helps that

Carrie (47:22):

(55:20):
Yeah.
And I was like, I didn't wantyou to find out.
Mm-hmm.
I was trying to, you know, so Iwas like plotting.

Kristine (55:26):
She was so good at with Okay you guys, she posted
like on Instagram, uh, like herin photos of like the pajamas
that we were po or likelaunching that day or something.
And she's like, oh, cozy day athome.
But like, she was actually inDisneyland.

I took

Carrie (55:40):
photos to plant on my Instagram.

Kristine (55:42):

And I like, liked it and I waslike, oh, those are cute.
Ha ha.
she, so there was something thathappened at the Warehouse.
We had

Carrie (55:50):
a, we had a fandule with, uh, a sweater

Kristine (55:53):
photo.
Yeah.
So Sarah actually came to thewarehouse to figure it out, but
used Carrie's code on the alarmsystem.
So I got a notification on myphone saying that Carrie was in
the warehouse and Carrie waslike telling me this whole story
while she was like, well, Sarahwas at the warehouse, or
whatever it was.
Mm-hmm.

(56:13):
She was texting me, she's like,yeah, there's this, and here are
the two colors.
I'm taking a photo right now.
Here you go.
But really, the photos came fromSarah sent to Carrie and then
Carrie sent them to me.
So I truly thought she was inthe, in the warehouse, but I
wasn't,

Carrie (56:25):
I was in Disneyland the whole time.
The whole time they

Kristine (56:28):
were dodging us, like using my, um, like find my
thing, whatever location.
Yeah.
And and, and Jace was keeping usposted.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And uh, and then they showed upand Well, I'll be, I'll be, I
was never, uh, no, that waswild.
And that was like such a funday.
Mm-hmm.
That was our first time being inDisneyland ever together.

(56:50):
Mm-hmm.
So that was really cool.
We went on all the rides.
We had lots of drinks probablytoo.
Me, I threw up that night.
Yes, you did.

Carrie (56:59):
Yeah.
Yeah.
We went on Indie.
You and I.

And

Kristine (57:01):

We did three days together, twodays overlapped, and then we
went home and you guys stayedand did three days just that.

(57:29):
You, you guys Yeah.
It was, it was such a good trip.
It was a nice way to do ittogether and still have family
time.

Kristine (57:34):
Yes.
Ties in with the whole

Carrie (57:35):
shebang.
Yeah.
And, you know, and then, so Jacehad never been on the Inre
coaster before and so I, I tookhim,

Kristine (57:42):
it was so fun.
Mm-hmm.
He loved it.
Oh.
Such a regret.
Now he loves it.
He was really worried that hewas gonna get a little brain
rattled and motion sick.
Yeah.
He had, uh, an injury when hewas younger.
Uh, when he was 13, he, um, hithis head on a trampoline and he
was in a coma for four days.
Mm-hmm.
So he has always had, like, hewould just get rattled really

(58:03):
easily mm-hmm.
And get really bad nausea.
And I would get, I get that.
Yeah.
And like, so he couldn't do mostthings for a really long time.
Mm-hmm.
Well, apparently he can do theinre coaster.
He can, yeah.
Okay.
So what are your favorite rides?
Okay, so, um, This one's alittle bit tricky for me cuz I
love, like, everything inDisneyland.
I know.
Um, but Disneyland ridesspecifically, I think I'm gonna

(58:25):
go with Peter Pam because ofthe, it's just original.
and I just love it so much.
but I'm also gonna say indie forsure.
Um, and then California Venture,that one's also really tricky,
but I have to go top three.
I'm gonna do, uh, guardians ofthe Galaxy in Credit Coaster and

(58:45):
then Grizzly Rapids.
It's like, I love Grizzly.
I love it so much.
Mm-hmm.
And yeah, it's, it's, it'stricky to go on because like,
you get so, so wet.
So, and like, Usually the linesare insane long.
So when it's cooler is when youwanna go, but then you're wet.
It's awful.
So

Carrie (59:04):
it's tricky.
It

Kristine (59:05):
really is tricky, but it's one of my favorites.
So that's, that's what I'm very,

Carrie (59:07):
I like where we stay.
Yeah.
Because if we go, we can justlike go up and change.

Kristine (59:11):
Yeah.
