Wowzers! You have done so much!! It all looks wonderful!
Happy New Year to you and your house!
Who can resist that loveable doggie face?? You've done so much great work this year. WOW!
Lock your door. I might come and nab those Bertoia chairs. I'm so jealous. Why can't my mom love mid-century modern so I can have hand-me-downs like yours?
