It’s a recipe for awkward maneuvers and accidental spills. Or for some, they plan it…
Whew! What a crazy couple of weeks. We have moved out of our old house, into a temporary house, and now are finally in our new house. While I feel like I’ll probably be unpacking for the rest of my natural life, we are so excited to finally be in our new home. Throw in…
