I have heard about this 12-week holiday planner for a couple of years now, and I guess that every time it came to my attention I was far enough into the holiday season that I didn't think it would be a help to me.
Yeah, well, this year is gonna be different.
Today I got a copy of this great book and I am so excited about it! Honestly, I wasn't really looking for help with the Jesus-is-the-reason-for-the-season aspect of this so much as I wanted to have the organizational help. I was not disappointed!
The book has a great 12-week plan to help get everything done without lumping it all into the 11th hour.
There are a whole bunch of really helpful planning sheets, blank calendars, places to make organized lists, and other great things like that.
There are a lot of really yummy-looking recipes that did not strike me as the kind only Martha Stewart would make.
The Jesse Tree devotionals do look neat. Somehow I have never done any sort of advent devotions with my kids (ever!) but this look doable, and like something we would enjoy adding in to our regular school days in December.
The other thing I really like about this planner is that I can use it year after year. The lists and organizer pages can be printed out as many times as I need them. Which makes a ton of sense to me. (just the one grocery shopping organizer page will be a huge help to me all year long. I already have one printed out and ready for the front of the fridge....)
So, there is my encouragement to you to go take a look and see if this planner would be a handy thing for you for the rest of this year.
