Happy New Year!
If you have been here before, you may notice that I have been making a few changes to the website. The beginning of the year always gets me motivated to make changes and get back into blogging and sharing with you! This blog does hold a special place in my heart and I wanted to get back to it. The color changes have come from a refresh of my dolly muse Brunbelle as well!
