It's the most wonderful time of the year........ AND stressful too.
This is probably one of my favorite blogs to write every year. From October to the end of December it is a very busy time in our lives but also a fun time and my kids no matter how old they get still want to decorate and help me with every holiday from Halloween, Thanksgiving, to Christmas.
However, I am very aware this is also a very stressful time in people's lives. From financial situations, to grief and sadness from losing loved ones, to extreme overwhelm of the holiday season.
I want to get my list guide out earlier this year to try and help navigate the overwhelm.
Will I follow my own advice and start shopping early this year? Probably not haha. I try every year but I think Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, and Cyber Monday are my days I start.
I highly encourage you to support and shop local and small businesses this holiday season. It's been a rough few years all around and these local shops need the love and support.
Here's my list of holiday must-haves -
