05 | First impressions from the in-laws

Two episodes ago we heard from Randy’s adult kids (and, yes, there’s more to come from them). In this episode, we shift and listen to what the SPOUSES of those kids have to say about moving into a new family…

Remember, we all make decisions and “do things” based on how we were raised. That not only includes us BUT ALSO includes our spouses. They come to each of us with a different background, different parenting styles having been poured into them, and unique experiences…

⭐️

So, here we dialogue about their first impressions of the Pardue family.

And we listen to them talk about the culture in the home.

And we see what happens when you begin merging cultures together… integrating them to effectively create new households.

⭐️

By the way, the spouses (read: Randy and Tammy’s kids) were not in the room when this talk was happening.

⭐️

Most of the speakers identify themselves in real time as they talk, but for reference here’s the overview:

Courtney is married to Jared, the oldest (2 girls, one special needs)

Brent is married to Abby, Randy & Tammy’s only daughter (4 kids)

Kristen is married to Eric (3 boys)

Rachel is married to Jackson (1 boy)
