Top It Off Challenge!

I can’t believe it’s almost the holiday season!  This year had passed so quickly and it’s been full of change!

The 5 Color Challenge!

I am finally at a state in the move that most of the things that I need are unpacked and put away.  There are still boxes of miscellaneous things that don’t have a place yet.  Hopefully, we can be fully unpacked by the holidays with everything in a proper place.  The latter is going to be the hardest part!  Because my parents came and helped...
