This post is in collaboration with Best Buy. All opinions are my own. I enjoy making meals; however, cleaning up is a different story. By the end of dinner, our counters are filled with dirty dishes just waiting to be cleaned. Especially now that we have added Emmett to the family, we need to run […]
Cinnamon Sugar Apples – An AirFryer Recipe

The Art of Intentional Unpacking
While we might have gotten our previous house ready to sell in just a couple weeks, moving into our new house has taken quite a bit longer. In some ways, I wish we were all settled in after living here for almost 3 months; however, I’m also glad that we’ve taken our time in unpacking. […]
