It’s almost like a whole month has been leading up to this.  It’s finally Christmas and we’re spending it the best way we can imagine – with our families.

This week, for the first time in the whole four year history of this blog, I’m taking a break. I’ve never taken one day off posting in the past four years.  There have been some days where I’m in the air between Ohio and Hong Kong and my posts got a little disheveled, but never a vacation or holiday went by that I didn’t continue to post. I really struggled with whether or not to take some time off.  I was actually nervous to write this post… like you guys would all jump ship if I didn’t post for a week.  But, after blogging twice a day for the month and gearing up for some changes we have coming to this space in the new year, I needed some time to let my brain breathe.

I’ll be thinking a lot during my blog break about the changes that are coming to House of Earnest.  They’re going to be pretty big and I’m both excited and nervous about the steps I need to take over the next few weeks.  I’m sorry that I have to be so cryptic, but you guys will be the first to know when more details are nailed down. I am still going to be working hard during the break on upcoming ideas, projects, products, and posts, so don’t fret, I’ll be back!

In the meantime, have a wonderfully fulfilling, intentional, and loving holiday with your family, friends and everyone close to your heart.

See you guys back here on Friday, January 2nd!
