The Gift Your Dog Deserves This Holiday

Years ago when we adopted Canela from Dog Tales Rescue and Sanctuary, I could never have known how much a pet could change my life.

Only time will tell I guess – but in the meantime, if I could have the perfect birthday, here are a few things I would want it to include!  Continue reading “What My Perfect Day Would Entail”

It got me thinking about some of my very own holiday hosting tips to make my guests feel welcome. Come and see what I am doing over the next few weeks to prepare for festivities to get my home ready for friends and family.  Continue reading “Travel & Lifestyle | Holiday hosting tips & how to avoid the #12stinks”
