Calendar App

I’ve written here in the past about the Cozi family calendar which has served us well for years. But one thing I didn’t love about it was that in order to see a full month view, you had to purchase that option. To keep up with everyone’s summer schedule this year, we’ve been relying heavily on a shared calendar, and my girls introduced me to TimeTree, which does show the full month calendar view (for free!). We’ve made the switch, and it’s super helpful to keep track of where everyone is and what we have coming up! TimeTreeApp.com

Puzzle Pad

This year my hubby bought a 3,000-piece puzzle for us to complete. While I appreciate his confidence in our puzzle abilities, I know it’s going to take a while to put together. I don’t really have space to devote to keeping the puzzle out while we’re completing it, so I researched some options. Enter the Puzzle Pad! It’s a page that has outlines for different sized puzzles, and when we’re not working on it or we need to put it up for a while, the pad rolls up while keeping the puzzle that’s been completed intact! Stay tuned for an update on how long it takes us to complete a puzzle of this size! Amazon.com
