Come Home for Supper
In my opinion, one of the greatest comforts of home is the supper table. It's important to take every chance you have to gather your family around your table for a meal.

Christmas Traditions and Operation Christmas Child
My family is really big on holiday traditions, especially at Christmas.

Entertaining Can Be Simple!
So many people are hesitant to entertain in their homes, for one reason or another. I will admit that I'm not as eager to entertain as I should be, although I never regret taking the opportunity. We entertained all of my husband's immediate family (including our precious baby niece!) over the weekend. I am so… Continue reading Entertaining Can Be Simple!
