Happy Valentine's from the Priest Family!
It’s been quite the year for our family, full of growth, adventure, and a whole lot of chaos (mostly the good kind!). I guess we just do Valentine’s Day notes instead of New Years notes, and we’re okay with that. :)

As I've gotten older, I've realized how important my physical space is to my happiness, productivity, and... sanity. As we prepare for the birth of our second child, I'm embracing the "nesting" instinct in a new way.
