Lower right header menu & use posts page as front page

I LOVE this theme and I'm having a blast configuring my old site to this theme! It seems pretty clear cut but there are a couple of things I can't find. 1) How do I make it so that my front page is my archive page? 2) How can I lower my header menu to line up with the top of Hide in Hide My Age? (the same way that my social icons is on my catch box pro theme? On the catch box pro it required some custom css. Thanks! Kim hidemyage.com
