Christmas is Coming & A Giveaway!
Christmas is exactly 7 weeks from today! I know many of you have Christmas pictures scheduled, Santa visits planned, Christmas parties to attend, and many other holiday events on your calendars. With that in mind, I want to update you on the expected ship dates of our Christmas Pre-Orders.
Our Christmas Angel Dress and our And To All A Good Night collection will be the next to ship. I anticipate them heading to you on Thursday, November 9th. Then, our Woodland collection should ship on Friday, November 10th and Monday, November 13th. (Side note--just this past weekend the dress sold out in size 8. The longall and shirt are also sold out in multiple sizes. Don't wait if this collection is on your wishlist).
Next up is our Santa Loungewear including the matching doll sets. WOW! It may take us 3 months to ship all of these to you. Just Kidding! My team is the best (truly, y'all--I am so blessed). Shipping these will be a major undertaking, but I anticipate having all orders shipped by November 15th. :)
Rounding out our Christmas Pre-Orders are the following collections: Smocked Nativity, Country Christmas, Green Gingham, Red Knit Loungewear, and Smocked Milk and Cookies. I don't have exact ship dates for these collections, but they are due to ship to us this week, and I anticipate ALL orders shipping by Tuesday, November 21.
Are you still with me? I know that was a lot! Before moving on to the giveaway, let me add there are lots of IN STOCK Christmas collections as well. Smocked Santa, Smocked Nutcracker, and Gingham Tree to name a few. All of these will ship immediately.
Now for the Giveaway! It's VERY simple to enter. Just leave a comment sharing about one of your favorite holiday traditions. I'll go first. Every Christmas Eve we throw a party for my husband's side of the family. While the actual party is always fun, preparing for it with my husband and children is my favorite. The tradition of cooking together, pulling out our special Christmas dishes, listening to Christmas music...I just love it. Is it messy? Yes. Is it a ton of work? Yes. Does it bring me unmeasurable joy? Yes, Yes, Yes! :) My Smocked Milk and Cookies collection was actually inspired by this holiday favorite of mine.
I look just like this sweet boy when someone hands me a cookie! ;)
Now it's your turn! What is one of your favorite holiday traditions? Leave a comment, and you'll be entered into a giveaway for a $20 shop credit! Winner will be announced here on Friday, November 10th.
Thanks for stopping by!
XO, Jessie

My favorite tradition is driving to the mountains to cut down our very own christmas tree the day after Thanksgiving! We started doing it a few years ago and this will be the first year we bring our daughter along for the ride. Can’t wait!
My grandma made my girls a angel advent quilt. Every year the girls Wake up and get their letter out of the pocket and do something for someone in need, like giving to Salvation Army, angel tree gifts, finding a kind thing to do that day for someone else. It is so special to watch!
We always opened up gifts from each other on Christmas Eve. To figure out who gets to start, my parents would hide a pickle ornament in the tree. Whoever found that ornament First got to open the first gift!
Christmas is always the most joyful time of year for me because of so much family time! I’m especially excited this year to share traditions with my son for his first Christmas. From pulling out decorations while watching Miracle on 34th Street, visiting the Legendary Santa, baking cookies for Santa, and my favorite tradition – the stockings. My Mom had the most beautiful stockings for all of us that she made herself. When my husband & I got married we chose stockings to bring into our home and continue the tradition…and we bought extras for our future children. I’m excited to see my son’s hung on the chimney with care this year and can fantasize about his own beautiful, Christmas memories.
My favorite Christmas tradition has always been looking at all the beautifully decorated homes covered in lights. As a child, I would always look forward to my sisters and I sleeping in the same room on Christmas Eve, waiting for Santa to arrive. We shared so many laughs and created great memories!
