When did Sunday become the new Saturday? I crave a weekend that’s a little quieter, a little less focused on youth sports and a lot more focused on recharging with my family. This Sunday, we have an extra golf team practice, a driving lesson and club volleyball. Our church routine hasn’t been very stellar this…

Weekly meal plan

I’m making this a quick one. Even though school doesn’t officially start for one more week, it feels like game on around here. Pre-season field hockey practices, pre-season middle school football, book pick up, locker decorating, haircuts and new shoes. You get the drill.
