A well styled welcome dinner! Who knew our house could look so fancy! When we first started planning our workshops, we knew right away we wanted to welcome people into our home. There’s something about that feeling of comfort that allows the heavy walls of burden or worry that you may have walking into a […]

Ten Days. That’s all we had.
