This week we finished the One Room Challenge® for our warm and cozy dining room. Who is ready for the reveal and some before and after photos?

Weekly Family Planner for the Command Center
I finally found the weekly family calendar that I have been looking for. I use one of the Mom’s calendars for planning further out, and I love it, but I need a larger and more prominent calendar to plan out our weeks. When I saw this at Hobby Lobby I knew it was the one.
