Please read my disclaimer page for more information. 2020 has made me look into and refocus my attention on many different things, one of those being the quality of the air in my home.

Ideas for Getting Outdoors
As a family, we have decided to get outside as much as possible since we are under a quarantine. This is not only good for your health but your kids and you need to get out of the house and stretch, breathe and enjoy the outdoors. Anyone that’s feeling super bored, stressed, tired, anxious, etc, etc… GO OUTSIDE! It will change your entire day if you allow it. We recently went on a family hike at Lynches River… we had an absolute blast exploring and the kids were worn out by the time we got home! I hope you enjoy the photos, I can’t believe how big they’re all getting!…
