Oh my word, y’all! The countdown has officially begun: 12 Days Until Christmas Eve!
We guess everyone has their favorite parts of their holiday traditions, the special moments that mean the most to them.
And, yes, we get why Christmas Day is the star of the show. Santa has come, the Christ Child is born.
But there’s just something about Christmas Eve…
The waiting. The sense of sweet anticipation. The joy in the journey.
At our house, Christmas Eve is when the fancy china comes out, when the crystal shines, when the candles are lit.
There are party poppers, too, complete with silly crowns and fun games. But there is something about that dark and formal moment of Christmas Eve, the knowing that everything you’ve been waiting for all year is right around the corner, that has always held a special place in our hearts.
(The meringues with heath bar whipped cream topping aren’t bad either…)
If you’re starting to look toward Christmas, we hope these stunning table settings by Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles have sparked something in you.

If you’re traveling over the holidays, I’d love for you to pick up a copy of my New York Times BestsellingChristmas in Peachtree Bluff!
Happy weekend!
Also available inAudiobook – perfect for holiday weekend travels!
In the newest installment of New York Times bestselling author Kristy Woodson Harvey’s Peachtree Bluff series, three generations of the Murphy women must come together when a hurricane threatens to destroy their hometown—and the holiday season in the process.
When the Murphy women are in trouble, they always know they can turn to their mother Ansley. So when eldest daughter Caroline and her husband James announce they are divorcing—and fifteen-year-old daughter Vivi acts out in response—Caroline, at her wits end, can’t think of anything to do besides leave her with Ansley in Peachtree Bluff for the holidays. After all, how much trouble can one teenager get into on a tiny island?
Quite a lot, as it turns out.
As the “storm of the century” heads toward Peachtree Bluff, Ansley and her husband Jack, with Vivi in tow, are grateful they’re planning to leave for the trip of a lifetime. But Vivi’s recklessness forces the trio to shelter in place during the worst hurricane Peachtree has ever seen. With no power, no provisions, and the water rising, the circumstances become dire very quickly…and the Murphy sisters, who evacuated to New York, soon realize it’s up to them to conduct a rescue mission. With the bridges closed and no way to access Peachtree Bluff by land or air, they set sail on Caroline’s boat, The Starlite Sisters, determined to rebuild their beloved town—as well as their family.
In “pitch perfect tones” (Publishers Weekly) and written with her signature Southern charm, New York Times bestselling author Kristy Woodson Harvey explores the magic of Christmas, the power of forgiveness, and the importance of family in a tale that reminds us that, no matter the circumstances, home is always where we belong—especially during the holidays.
