I’m a little late with this post because I had no clue as to what to do for this month’s theme. I finally settled on creating a Christmas theme at the last minute. I know, it’s very cliché for the month of December, but I wasn’t inspired to do anything else. After I settled on…

The activities list for my nieces two week visit was vast. I had everything you could do inside with children in this hot Arizona heat on my list. The list ranged from activities we could do in the house to visiting museums. We tried to think of a variety of activities so they wouldn’t be…

My mother and I enjoy hosting a festive gathering from time to time. It’s always fun to eat good food, listen to music, and chat with family and friends. Even though we always have a good time the day of the event, the days leading up to the party can be a little stressful. The…
