Hi guys! For those of you who have reached out about my recent absence, it seriously means so much to me. Thanks for your concern. I’m dealing with some health challenges at the moment…I’ve retreated in every area of my public life to restore and recreate...doctor’s orders.I wrote a bit about it here if you want to read the latest. Appreciate your prayers and support!
As I’ve been doing my personal Christmas shopping, I’ve been making a list for the last minute shopper too! I'm not insinuating you're a procrastinator or anything. :)
I surprisingly have my shopping wrapped up for the year and I'm feeling pretty good about my purchases. If you know me at all, I LOVE finding the right gift for the right person...so making a gift guide for you to shop from is super fun for me.
Be sure to thoroughly read the shipping policies from each website if you're going to make a last minute order! I'd be so bummed if you didn't get it in time for Christmas. Ok, let's get to it!
