Fall is here!

We are just loving fall in the Nielsen house, it has been wonderful so far!

This is our fall-time wreath. I love. Why can I never finish a project without having to return to Joann's at least three times?

Once upon a time Trevor had a best friend named Taylor. Trevor and Taylor were tight like spandex, but in a good way. Taylor got married to a pretty pretty princess named Ashli. Ashli & Taylor had a baby boy named Carston who was the most darling baby in all the land. This is that baby. We love Taylor and Ashli, and we love Carston.

I made minestrone soup that became minestrone gumbo after a few too many minutes 

in the crockpot. It was still yummy and perfectly autumnesque!

I successfully cut my first pineapple. I just thought that was worthy of noting. And celebrating.
