As Christmas approaches, the Brenner Brothers are dealing with all manner of issues. Luke and his wife, Barbara, are preparing for the birth of their twins, due any day now. Meanwhile, Stefan and fiancée Susie are struggling to plan their wedding. Finally, Taylor gets an amazing job offer, but that would mean moving to San Francisco.
As all three brothers try to handle these upcoming life changes, unforeseen challenges arise. First, Susie’s no-nonsense father makes a surprise visit. Then, they get the news that their mother is selling their childhood home, making it their last Christmas there.
Things start to get chaotic as Christmas draws closer, from a lost pet bird to Luke’s son Thomas feeling forgotten amid baby preparations, to Tyler’s worries about moving away from his family and moving in with his girlfriend, Caroline.
