Style Your Home – Mud Room

Something’s not working? As with many routines in life, we need to shift our habits with the seasons. In our case, the back door entry was also the spot to park the washer and dryer.

The Games People Played

Without parents around, we could have our grandparents’ undivided attention. Our precious time after the evening meal was a way to connect.
