me When I say 1637 01:31:12,801 --> 01:31:16,572 ♪ Every day is Christmas day ♪ 1638 01:31:17,740 --> 01:31:19,908 LAUREN: I knew that somehow the Holiday Spirit 1639 01:31:19,942 --> 01:31:23,145 will truly bring the Fords and the Shepherds together. 1640 01:31:23,178 --> 01:31:27,382 I just didn't realize that it would require me to almost lose my life. 1641 01:31:27,415 --> 01:31:31,019 But they say God will use you to make a miracle happen. 1642 01:31:31,053 --> 01:31:34,790 This is how I truly know that this union is meant to be. 1643 01:31:34,823 --> 01:31:37,526 Mr. Shepherd put in a lot of work mending mama's heart. 1644 01:31:37,560 --> 01:31:41,429 He finally got her to agree to marry him again on Valentine's day. 1645 01:31:41,463 --> 01:31:44,833 He surprised her by getting everyone to come home again. 1646 01:31:44,867 --> 01:31:46,835 Well, all except for Joey. 1647 01:31:46,869 --> 01:31:52,575 Mr. Shepherd and Joey are better, but they've got a lot of rebuilding to do. 1648 01:31:52,608 --> 01:31:59,314 The weired thing is now the Shepherds and Fords have gotten too close. 1649 01:31:59,347 --> 01:32:01,684 All in all the feud is over. 1650 01:32:01,717 --> 01:32:04,920 The Shepherds and the Fords are happy. 1651 01:32:04,953 --> 01:32:08,824 I love my family no matter how dysfunctional they are. 1652 01:32:08,857 --> 01:32:11,560 Stacey and Doug are said to be married in the summer. 1653 01:32:11,594 --> 01:32:14,930 Me and Reid are weirdly still an item. 1654 01:32:14,963 --> 01:32:18,634 But I'm trying to figure out a way to let him down easy, 1655 01:32:18,667 --> 01:32:20,468 so we can just be friends. 1656 01:32:20,502 --> 01:32:25,941 He's a great guy, but there is only room for one Ford-Shepherd couple 1657 01:32:28,210 --> 01:32:30,278 We've really learned a lot this Christmas. 1658 01:32:30,312 --> 01:32:34,016 We've learned how to be happy for each other and how to love each other. 1659 01:32:34,049 --> 01:32:37,586
