The wreath in the display case in our front hall got an upgrade! It has always had a red bow. However, seeing as how our "signature" color is purple we decided it was time for a change. Thanks to Mark, an Ascend Mentor, for the suggestion. It looks perfect and brings together the history of Holiday House with the rebranding to Ascend Services!
