Back to School 2021!

I CANNOT believe the summer is almost over. Really. I think I probably say this every year, but this year I REALLY mean it. I am NOT ready. Partly because we have an unfinished pool in our backyard (it will be complete soooooon!) and partly because I am not ready…

Birthday Gift Guide: 6-year-old Boy
