Sometimes I have to laugh at how often I find myself spouting gifting and prepping tips here, after years of being what I like to call “domestically challenged.” The truth is – I’m learning a lot in my 30s lately. It’s never too late to learn, right? As part of my personal holiday countdown, which seems to start in early-mid November these days, I like to write a little checklist of what I need to get through the season. What do we all need all season round? Gifts for loved ones. Wrapping paper, too!
I can honestly remember when I discovered Amazon – I was 19 and wanted to reread all of the book series from my youth. I couldn’t find them in bookstores anymore, so I would order a book a month from Amazon as a “treat” to myself. Now it goes way beyond that. Amazon is what helps this family get ready to celebrate the holiday season. They do this by reducing holiday stress, and delivering those smiles to family and friends through all the little moments of the holiday season. It could be finding the secret ingredient to your tried and true family cookies recipe, or it’s finding perfect gifts for EVERYONE on your list! They have holiday décor and wrapping materials as well! And don’t forget about decorating that tree!

5 Reasons My Family Uses Amazon For the Holidays:
1 – It makes us holiday heroes. That’s right. Since Amazon helps customers deliver smiles to their friends and family, well, we look pretty good to our loved ones when we get them the most perfect gifts!
2 – Using Amazon takes the stress out of the holidays, and that leads to more celebration. They have low prices and great deals, a vast selection, as well as innovative ways to shop when and where you want. We feel totally covered, and we feel stress-free too.
3 – You can take the guesswork out of gift giving by visiting amazon.com/gifts.
4 – EVERYONE, gets free shipping throughout the holidays on hundreds of millions of items – with the largest free shipping selection in the country.
5 – We are Amazon Prime members which means we can get free same-day delivery and one-day shipping in 8,000 cities and towns on three million items this holiday season. Whoa.
What are we loving this season?
Like just this week, I got a box full of gifts for three people in my life. I got these amazing pizza socks for my mom. Or my sister. Or is it me? Either way, they are so cute and amazing and would make a great gift for someone in your life!
And then I got pajamas for my niece! She’s getting bigger and I wanted something that will suit her year-round. How cute are these pajamas? Honestly, I wish my kids still wore these every night! Wait, maybe they would…
Then I got Cassidy a gorgeous flannel shirt that will match his eyes! I love a good flannel shirt. Sometimes I even get ones that will match him. And I’m sure I can find its counterpart on Amazon. There’s no way they don’t have it!

Amazon is committed to #DeliveringSmiles this holiday season – through a variety of ways, so stay tuned to discover how committed they are this holiday season. I can’t wait!


Yup, have Amazon Prime here, as well and have used it so much this holiday season, too! So you are truly preaching to the choir on this 🙂
I absolutely love Amazon Prime. I genuinely wonder what I did before! It has made life so much more simple for me, both during the holidays and all year long.
Seriously, I could NOT do Christmas without Amazon! I have pretty much bought most of my gifts on Amazon! And Prime makes it a no-brainer. I am officially DONE with shopping! WOOT! Now, can Amazon come wrap this stuff please? LOL
Amen, Amazon Prime is a life necessity for us!
