It's been years since I've had an American Christmas. Peppermint cocoa, Christmas ham and pajama-days! It was fabulous to be home for the holidays.
Thank you to everyone who poured out love, who gave so generously, and eagerly spent time chatting and catching up. You refreshed my soul and filled up my love-tank. You'll never know how needed that was!
Thank you for also loving on my friend Meagan. You showed her what a traditional, Southern Christmas looked like and made many of her dreams come true. Thank you for loving the people I love! You're a priceless community to me.
