Send me a text about this episode!This first installment of Holiday Homemaking 2024 is a little different than past episodes. The first half of the episode is a mini deep dive on Advent with wife, mom, homemaker and author, Donna Amidon. She shares how her family practice of decorating a Jesse Tree throughout Advent transformed their celebration of Christmas and led to her new book, Tracing His Promise.Then we jump into familiar Holiday Homemaking territory with Amanda Faucett's and Holly Tompkins' holiday stories of home, some holiday poetry and some tips from me on coordinating family or group gift giving. EPISODE NOTES & LINKSConnect with Donna AmidonWebsite | InstagramAdvent Book:Tracing His Promise: Understanding the Bigger Story of Jesus and What That Means for UsE.
