A new year calls for new books and new reading goals. I'm not much of a reader, but I want to become one. Twenty books in 2020. Yes, you read that right. I'm going to try to read twenty books this year. I may not make it all the way to twenty, but I'm at least going to try. I'm going to break up the 20 books into smaller groups over several months. Maybe then I won't feel overwhelmed. So, the first batch of my 2020 books looks like this: Treasuring Christ When Your Hands are Full: ...
25 Days of Christmas Books
December is here and we've already begun a few of our annual Christmas traditions. I love family traditions and the 25 Days of Christmas Books is one of them. Starting in mid November, I thumb through our Christmas books (somewhere where the kids won't see or get into them just yet) and choose which books I want to include in our 25 Days of Christmas Books tradition.

Review of the IKEA Svalnas Desk
The Svalnas desk is a desk that can be used in so many different rooms. I'm sure by now, you are well aware of IKEA and their lower priced furniture and pieces. Not only are they affordable, the quality is good too. We needed something for our school room. Well, I say school room, but it also serves as a place for our guests when we have overnight guests occasionally. This room has been a baby nursery, a guest room, a full blown school room, and now it serves as a guest room & school ...
Spanish Wells, Bahamas: A Full Review
Spanish Wells. A place to swim or snorkel in crystal, clear water. A place that has some of the best seafood. A place where you go to do nothing. And it's wonderful A place where the islanders become your friends for a lifetime. We heard of Spanish Wells from a friend who had visited. I saw her photos from her trip and knew we had to go there. So, we did just that - we booked our 15th anniversary trip to this fantastic, little island. We have been to the Bahamas before but never ...
