Packing for a family trip can be stressful. Whether the trip is for a weekend or a full week, every family must have basic essentials within reach.

Building a Hen House- Stage 1
Over the past year one of the things my husband & I wanted to start was a chicken coop. Living outside the New Orleans area is such a gift.
