Hey there, Reader, After that Christmas Home Tour, Ethel Sue could not get those sweet little gingerbread houses out of her mind. The candy-striped ribbon, the tiny gingerbread people, the cozy little village on the kitchen counter… it all felt like someone had taken Christmas cheer, rolled it in cinnamon sugar, and set it right there for everybody to enjoy. Some might say she got a little carried away. I prefer to say she found a fun new way to share her sparkles of joy with the world! She created her very first Christmas coloring book!! 🎉😁 It has 40 pages of sweet gingerbread scenes: cabins, shops… even a little gingerbread farm. ❤️ It’s the kind of thing you can enjoy with a cup of cocoa nearby, Christmas music playing softly, and maybe a cookie or two within reach. Not that I’m telling you to eat cookies while coloring. I’m just saying I support your joy. 😁 It would make a sweet little treat for:
And if word puzzles are more your style, there’s a gingerbread word search book too! Wishing you a great time coloring (or word-searching!) with Ethel Sue… more books are coming soon! Grace + hugs, Melissa Alyse ❤️ P.S. Don’t wait till Christmas Eve to start coloring! 🎄 The sooner you grab it, the more cozy cocoa afternoons you get with it. I’m just saying… I support your joy. 😁

One had a gingerbread theme. You would’ve loved it! Little gingerbread people in the tree, candy-striped ribbon, and a whole gingerbread village across the kitchen counter. Another house had turquoise ornaments and gold sparkle. I told Glory I was only looking, but by then I was already planning. You see, we’re painting...
Hey there, Reader, Thelma stopped by the other afternoon after she’d finished delivering Meals on Wheels around town. I poured us each a cup of tea, and before long we got to talking about Pastor Mark’s message on the shepherds in Luke 2. “Isn’t it something,” Thelma said, “that of all the people God could’ve told about Jesus being born, He chose a bunch of shepherds?” “Reminds me of David,” I told her. Remember when Samuel came to Jesse’s house looking for the next king? Jesse brought out...
Hey there, Reader, I’m so excited to share that it’s time to snuggle up in your favorite Christmas throw and head back to Willow Creek. The Christmas Favor is here!
