I love baking new creations for my family and friends. Luckily, my huge family gathers every sunday evening for dinner at my Grandpa's house so I am able to try new things weekly! This week, I was craving two of my favorites.... COFFEE and BROWNIES! So, I decided to whip up this trifile. For those of you who do not know what a trifile is...shame on you!

It has been awhile! Thank goodness my lovely sister has been keeping up with blogging! I honestly do not know how she does it!

Let’s talk photo displays. In my home, I have a huge display of wedding photos on my living room wall (these frames are all different sizes and hung in a collage; it seriously takes up the entire wall).

Finally I have more photos of the kids hanging in my little sitting nook/ dining area, which I swap out … [Read more...]
