On the blog, I’m gathering with some of my good blogging friends and we are sharing 12 easy ways to organize and decorate after the holidays!

Good morning!! I am happy to report that it’s Good morning!! 

I am happy to report that it’s going to be a White Christmas in the Mitten, this year! We have had crazy wind and blowing snow, but it’s supposed to clam down by this afternoon! 

I know the snow is complicating travel and Christmas plans for some of you and I pray you all get where you are going, safe and sound! 

I’m signing off for a few days to enjoy some much needed time with my family! I’m so grateful to celebrate the reason for the season! 

I’m sharing some photos from my Christmas home tour in case you missed it! 

Wishing you all a wonderful Christmas! May it be merry and bright! 

Peace and Blessings, 

Kim ❤️🎄
