Carrie spent the day with her two sons Isaiah Michael and Jacob Bryan, whom she shares with her husband Mike Fisher.
She recently reflected on the importance of family time amidst her busy life, sharing: "I remember when we first found out we were gonna have him [Isaiah], it [was] like, 'How are we gonna do this?
“Our lives are so crazy as it is.’ But you just make room, and you learn how important that family time is, and to be able to spend time and carve out some of that and maybe get to go on vacation and maybe get to go on a cruise—that stuff is so important to, like I said, make time for family. That's what it's all about."
