Summary

It's back to school season here in our neighborhood so we're chatting about home efficiency. From comparing calendars with a spouse at the beginning of the week to packing lunches early (and even outsourcing the task to kids!) we're sharing how we keep things running smoothly when life gets busy. Plus identifying some areas where we could use some help.


Kelsey is loving her new gorgeous jewelry organizer from The Knotted Wood Etsy shop. Erica is OBSESSED with her new pink 30 oz Yeti Rambler.
