Make it Pretty Monday - Week 115

Hello World!  I'm so excited for this new week!  This week, Little Dedicated turns 7!  My sweet, funny, little girl is growing up so fast.  She is an amazing gift from God and I am so thankful He gave her to us!  

Also, my head is so full of ideas for the house, blog and future of The Dedicated House that I can barely contain myself.  I will be sharing all that is in my head and on my heart with you in the coming weeks.  I love each and every one of you and am so very grateful for you.  My sweet readers, do you know how much our Heavenly Father loves you?  I bless each and every one of you this week!  May He continue to show you His lovingkindness to you!! 

Okay, now that we are all blessed, let's get to the features and the party!!!
