  1. We have already gotten our Christmas cards...I know it's early, but since it snowed here about 2 weeks ago I felt ready!
    I ♥ the "Story of Christmas" set of tiny books by Mary Packard that you sent 2 years ago. I gave it to my sister with younger girls, so that they can read it together as a count down!

    1. Chinaberry was kind enough to partner with me on that two years ago. They did a special sale on the book last year - I've been keeping my eyes open this year, but I'm not sure if they'll do it again.

    1. The Nativity season seems to creep up more quickly each year! So joyous, but it definitely helps to do some planning ahead. :)

  10. Very nice! Is there a way to purchase for those who don't win? Of course, I'd love to win, but if not, I would be interested in getting it anyway. I have not been able to find an Advent Calendar that I was happy with (most are too secular Santa themed). Thank you for this opportunity!
