My sister in law and my niece arrive today, we will spend a few days enjoying Florida before I fly back home to California. It?s graduation weekend and I?m excited to celebrate, my youngest is graduating high school so a chapter is ending and soon the nest will be empty and a new chapter will begin.
I finished a DIY project during my Florida stay, it?s an IKEA cabinet hack that now serves a very useful purpose in our home. Look for that project coming up later this week.
