Last weekend when we were up at Snow Mountain Ranch for our Mayberry Family Fun Event we took up the opportunity to try fat biking! One of our favorite things about Snow Mountain Ranch is that they have a beautiful Nordic Center - we go cross country skiing or snowshoeing every year on the miles of trails they have.

And Bring it to a Flourishing Finish
Last year I was given the incredible opportunity to partner with Naptime Diaries in the launch of their Verse of the Year prints.
