On the List

I know this edition of On the List is long past due. I haven’t been sharing as many posts over the past month, but after COVID put me through the wringer, it’s taken a bit for me to get back to my new normal.

This weekend we’re celebrating my youngest niece’s birthday a few weeks early and I’m so excited for her little seaside-inspired party as she prepares to turn 1 year old. Where does the time go?! In October I will be celebrating a milestone birthday that I’m definitely not ready for, and then just before Thanksgiving, my eldest niece will be turning 3! So we definitely have a lot of birthdays in our family during the fall season.
