Why Everyone Should Have Regular Family Game Nights

I still remember family game nights at my grandparents. We had a homemade wooden board/marble game that my Grandpa’s friend had made him, called Wahoo.

Apple Pie Smoothie

Well, hello Fall! I’ve been a bit absent here lately, and I apologize. Along with dealing with being sick this past month, life has just been a bit nutty.

What to do with all Your Photos

If my house was ever on fire, other than getting my my kids to safety (a given), I’d try to grab my photos and external hard drive, which houses a good amount of my photos. My photographs are by far the most special possession I have and the thing I would be most devastated to lose. If you’re… [Read More]
