Dressing for the holidays and special events can be a bit difficult when you are pregnant and looking for cute maternity holiday outfits. So I’ve rounded up some of my favorite holiday finds for maternity dresses, maternity sweaters and cardigans, maternity pants, and even some fun Christmas jewelry accessories.

Read MoreI have always loved receiving Christmas Cards! I love hanging them somewhere special in the house so that I can see the faces of friends and family and can be intentional to pray over them. Over the years, I have used several different services for creating and sending out Christmas Cards, but my absolute favorite to use is Minted!
Read MoreI love the Advent season. The preparation for Christmas and the opportunity to focus my heart on the true reason for the season — Jesus! Several years ago, I purchased an Advent Bible Study from SheReadsTruth that came with these beautiful advent scripture ornaments that you could pop out and hang on your tree. This year I decided to use those scripture ornament cards as our Advent Calendar above our dining table so that we can read a verse every morning at breakfast as we prepare our hearts in this Christmas season.
I have rounded up several beautiful options for Advent Scripture Card Sets — most of them are from Etsy (which means they are handmade by small business creatives!). Some of these sets are printable downloads and others can be shipped.
Read MoreI wanted to share a few of my favorite Bible Verses about thanksgiving and a challenge for you to reflect over the next 10 days leading up to Thanksgiving. It is my hope that this brings great encouragement leading up to both the Thanksgiving holiday and the upcoming Christmas season, as you focus your heart on all that God has done for you and will continue to do in the future!
