So far our summer travel plans have included visiting family in my home state of Oregon. The great thing about technology and Skype in particular is that our communication habits don’t have to change while we’re traveling!

Click here to read the official rules, but basically you can participate by following McCormick on Pinterest and making one of their recipes and posting pictures of your beautiful […]
I am a T-girl all the way. My closet is filled with solid colored t-shirts and I find myself going for them again and again. They’re comfy, practical, versatile, and I can be a mom and do all the mom things I need to do. I have tried lots of different brands of tees, and […]
