^^ The apps and dessert table from our Friendsgiving. ^^I always head to our local Dollar Tree when looking for inexpensive candles and vases to decorate our table.

You guys! It has been FOREVER since I have sat down to write a post for all of you…I’m sorry! With Thanksgiving just around the corner (can you believe it?!) I have some fun new Holiday content coming your way but thought it would be fun to catch you all up on life! Chris and […]
