The mornings have been seasonally cooler. While the evenings have been fall-like and picturesque. It’s that time of year when the mornings begin with a cup of seasonal favorites. And a delicious pot of soup or chili is the go-to meal after a day in the elements. There have been moments this past week that I’ve turned on the heater and zipped up my coat. The seasons have changed and it’s time for the holiday shopping season. This means making a list and checking it twice. The retailers and shippers have encouraged early holiday shopping to get packages delivered on time. Especially those care packages being shipped to the military men and women serving internationally.

There are so many ways you can support the men and women serving in the armed forces this holiday season. Click the USO logo to purchase a gift for someone serving in the military. Encourage your family and friends to join you in purchasing a gift from the USO to send to a service member.

I’ll Be Home For Christmas
The holidays are special for so many reasons. As a former military spouse, I know how important it is to get the home ready for loved ones returning from deployment or on leave for the festive season. Sometimes, military families have to celebrate Christmas early. Having the holiday inventory available months in advance has been a game changer. My brand partners have so many options to create a magical holiday celebration perfect for capturing special moments. Here are a few of my favorites from Antique Farm House.
