I know this post is long overdue . . .
The holidays were particularly busy for me because my family came to visit. Ray and I hosted Christmas morning and my niece's birthday. It was difficult not to get stressed out (being a hostess is hard!), but I had so much fun planning my niece's 13th birthday. I'll share some pics soon, but for now, here are some images of a great before/after I found on Apartment Therapy. This space would be way too girly for Ray to handle, but I'm totally inspired by it :) Hopefully, I'll have some of my own inspiring before/after posts in 2010 . . .
