Sweet P turned NINE, and we “huddled” up to celebrate! It’s tough having a summer birthday, and when you add in a pandemic, I have to admit I was starting to stress about pulling something off for him. This football themed party ended up being the perfect activity for him and a few buddies to gather and celebrate. We asked… View Post
I received this recommendation from a friend and it sounded like the perfect light book I was looking for while at the beach. I had really been struggling to make it through another more serious book and wanted something that was easy breezy. The American Royals is a fun what-if scenario about what it would look like if America had… View Post

I think it was worth the wait and actually works better since it’s closer to the start of… View Post
Hi friends! How is it already the last day of July? For having nowhere to go, time sure is still flying by. The last two weeks have been splendidly boring and the boys have really enjoyed the down time around the house. And I’m not going to lie- I have too!
