Merry Christmas 🎄


Hey, it's Lynn –
I love this time of year.

Christmas Eve always feels a little quieter — a pause before everything rushes forward again. I’m taking a few days off to be present with loved ones, and I hope you’re able to do the same.

I’ll see you back here next Wednesday.

Below are a few short videos — three featuring Christmas light displays around Northwest Arkansas, plus a couple of food spots worth adding to your holiday plans. If you haven’t been out yet, many of the lights are still well worth seeing in person.

Wishing you a peaceful Christmas,
Lynn

And speaking of comfort food, the scratch-made soups at The Five6 in this week’s video are exactly the kind of cold-weather meal that hits right Let's dive in. 👇...
