Make it Pretty Monday - Week 85

Hello World!  Happy Monday!  Do you have big goals for this week?  My goals are to finish the piano today after I teach a voice lesson and Little Dedicated has practiced her piano pieces.  And, to focus on getting all of the cabinet doors sanded and filled.  Such fun!  

Let's take a look at all of the amazing features, shall we?
