Minor change and yummy dessert

After a few changes in our bedroom including moving the book cupboard and gun cabinet I had my eyes on a bare wall above the babies crib (I am “patiently” awaiting her arrival). So, when I found my old window and created a wreath to fill the void above our bed I opted to just take down all the pictures in our room and compile them here! I like how it turned out and it fixed the lonely corner by the crib.

And, after your little rearrangement of pictures, candles or whatever you are doing today, finish up and go make these scrumptious brownies! They are super yummy and fun to make. I made a batch for a picnic this week with friends and they were devoured!
