CHRISTMAS IN PEACHTREE BLUFF by Kristy Woodson Harvey - Spotlight & Giveway
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.First of all, I can relate to what the Murphy fear because I live in Miami. 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.
Kristi's novel is the perfect way to get into the spirit of the Holidays.

I love planning out both our traditional advent and our fun advent. I began a fun advent when my children were young as we didn’t have money to “do” Christmas. I wasn’t even sure I’d be able to have a gift for them under the tree that year. I remembered the old fashioned European advent calendars with toys in them. I decided that I would create something for my children to really enjoy Christmas that year. I pulled out an old half filled notebook and listed every day from the day after Thanksgiving until Christmas. Then I put a night of “Christmas Quiet” each week where we didn’t have anything planned (if they wanted to do something I’d turn on Christmas Music). For the rest I added in school plays, church things, telling family stories, watching Christmas Movies, laying under the tree and looking at the lights, making snowflakes and ornaments, and so many other things. I never dreamed that it would become a staple of their and our Christmas Season ten years later. Even my now 19 year old son insists on this! Some activities change, but it’s still one of my favorite things.
ReplyDeleteI love reading the Christmas story out of the Bible with my family.
