Post Thanksgiving Wrap-Up
I love long weekends...but why is it they seem to go by so fast? A five day work week does NOT sound fun right now. Anyway, I hope you had an enjoyable Thanksgiving!

To Black Friday or Not To Black Friday?

I like to make a little collage so I can display all the cards we get each year. Some of the fun of receiving Christmas cards is looking at all the beautiful designs! There seem to be so many creative options available these ... Read More
