August Plan With Me: Bullet Journal Updates
A new month starts this week. I get excited about the dawn of a new month.

A new month is a reminder that the world is continuing to spin despite myContinue reading “August Plan With Me: Bullet Journal Updates”

England 2018: Week 1 Review

Watching the girls connect with their British family and heritage makes all of the hassle of travel worth it. This first week was spent adjusting to the timeContinue reading “England 2018: Week 1 Review”
