My recommendations this week:
We’ve been reading this lovely children’s Christmas book for years, but this week was the first time we tried out the movie by the same name.
Definitely one we’ll add to our annual viewing lineup! Beautiful cinematography and a slow-paced (but not sappy) storyline; I’d recommend for ages 9 and up.
Last year I was so blessed by my friend Lisa Grace Byrne’s FREE webinar on receiving the “gifts” from the current year to apply to the new one. I approached 2014 in a whole new way.
She’s doing it again this year and you can sign up here to listen in for FREE (either live or to the replay). I highly recommend all of Lisa’s work & know you’ll find it inspiring.

Raise your hand if you’ve given Stitch Fix a try! I was quite skeptical at first, but it has ended up being one of my favorite discoveries of 2014.
As someone who despises traditional clothes shopping, I have loved adding a few pieces to my wardrobe from the comfort of my own home. Not too late to request a little holiday gift for yourself, right?!
“The whole educational and professional training system is a very elaborate filter, which just weeds out people who are too independent, and who think for themselves, and who don’t know how to be submissive, and so on — because they’re dysfunctional to the institutions.” ~ Noam Chomsky
