Holiday Planner & Organizer for 2024

The holidays are a time for family, friends and fun. But they can also be a stressful time of year! Let’s face it—the holidays are crazy busy. Between shopping, cooking, traveling and more—it’s easy to get overwhelmed.

I mean, isn’t the reality that we want to have our menu plan done? Our grocery list made out? Our shopping done with the packages all set to be delivered on time? Oh and maybe, just maybe we could even get our wrapping done before Christmas Eve! Making it possible to enjoy a nice family moment in front of the fire instead of frantically trying to get all the things done.

Many years, this is what I envisioned in my head and many years this is not what actually happened.

The reality is that for most of this is not the case. Here’s reality.

We forgot a gift or two. Now we are very last minute trying to find something on Amazon with one day shipping.

We remembered that we never brought any baked goods to the new neighbors down the street.

And once again, you ran out of tape—in the middle of wrapping all the presents.

So, do we have our act together? Um, no.

It was out of desperation that I finally created the Holiday Planner!

If you want to enjoy the holiday season instead of stressing out about it, then you need an MFD Holiday Planner! It includes everything you need to plan your holiday so that it’s easier than ever before. You’ll have peace of mind knowing that all your bases are covered from start to finish with this planner.

Check out how the 2024 Holiday Planner will allow you to have a more enjoyable holiday season.

Here is what the Holiday Planner includes:

Kickstart Organizer – Each year, my husband and I sit down at the table and figure out what we are going to get each person on our list. This handy printable helps make sure we have a plan for everyone on our list. It also gives us a few backup ideas in case one of them doesn’t work out. I love this list because it helps me keep track of all my ideas.

Calendar – November and December calendars will help make sure you don’t miss a single Christmas concert, movie, or family get together all season long. I like to print two copies and leave one in my purse and one on the fridge to make sure I don’t miss a thing!
