Home Remodeling In mid-2019 we decided it was time to update our laundry room which is also our kitchen pantry.

Pumpkin Spice M&Ms

Summer Finale – Lessons from the Pool
This was our very first summer at our neighborhood pool. And will definitely not be the last. As I look back over the summer at the pool, here are some lessons learned and things I want to remember. It takes at least an hour for me to get 3 kids “ready” to go to the
