I’m 40 years old and I still believe in Santa Claus. Okay, maybe not the jolly man in a red suit who flies in a sleigh led by 8 magic reindeer (or is it 9…do we count Rudolph?), but I 100% believe in what Santa Claus represents.

My husband and I are huge fans of the show Friends and no other sitcom did Thanksgiving nearly as well.
It is here! Our most anticipated guide of the year! The Lake Country Holiday Shopping + Gift Guide for 2019, brought to you by The Lake Country Mom + amazing small and locally run businesses.
Lake Country in October is one of my favorite times of year. The fall colors and crisp air seem to turn our little corner of the world into an even more magical place to live. While I love to throw back a Pumpkin Spice Latte, take a stroll through a bucolic storybook apple orchard or light up my autumn leaves scented candles and fully embrace sweater weather with the best of them, there’s also something to be said for getting into the spooky side of October as well. In my opinion, no one does Halloween quite like Lake Country.
