Happy New Year everyone! I hope you had a safe and fun celebration. I was in bed by 11PM; to be honest I think the last time I stayed up to ring in the new year was in 2015. Woo-wee, what a doozy of a year. I think this year had more peaks and valleys … Continue reading Looking Back on 2020

Christmas 2020
Despite not being able to see all of the family members that I would usually see (I’m looking at you, Maine! <3), Christmas this year was still a special one.

A “Fair-Themed” Gathering
When the fairs in the area are cancelled, what’s the next best thing? Hold a little fair in your backyard!

Baking With My 3 Year Old (And a Muffin Recipe!)
