Holidays in a blended family don't have to be stressful!

In this episode of the Nacho Kids Podcast, Lori and David dive into real-life stories and practical tips on how to navigate gift-giving, family traditions, and finances during the holiday season as a blended family.

Listeners will learn how to handle common issues like kids comparing presents, managing in-law expectations with step-grandkids, and avoiding "gift competition" between households. Lori and David reveal their own strategies for dividing up gift responsibilities, setting realistic gift budgets, and creating flexible holiday traditions that don't revolve around a specific date, but focus on making lasting memories together. You'll also pick up clever ideas for dealing with uneven schedules, supplementing grandparent gifts, and why sometimes it's okay to buy your own present and wrap it up!

Lori and David share plenty of personal experiences and advice every blended family can relate to. Don't miss their heartfelt take on giving back during the holidays and the importance of gratitude, even when things aren't "Hallmark perfect."

Tune in for laughs, thoughtful insights, and a powerful reminder: Christmas is about the love and memories you create, not just the gifts you give.
