Welcome everyone to my Happy Homemaker post for this week. I hope you have all had a great Monday so far. Do you ever feel like the Homemaking side of life gets tougher at the beginning of the school year?

Here’s to hoping the Homemaker game gets a little easier this week!

Breakfast time….what is on the plate this morning::::

I pretty much had coffee for breakfast this morning-maybe that is why I have felt like a slug all day
