Hi there! I wanted to take a moment to thank all who visit my blog and who take the time to leave sweet comments over the past year! It means so much to me and is greatly appreciated. I hope I am able to inspire you throughout 2015. It's been cold and raining here in Phoenix on and off all day which made for the perfect weather to create! I scrapped a layout featuring a photo of Scott, Connor, Meredith and myself that was taken years ago while...
