Biggest slacker blogger award:
Definently goes to me.
I've been slacking big time.
And I can't find my camera cord.

We are so busy with school!
This is my last semester of classes and I'm taking a 17.5 credit load.
Pretty hefty with all the projects and tests going on currently.
I'm waiting on my student teaching assignment.
I'm hoping to get it this week.
I'm also super busy with lacrosse.
We're a club team so we totally support ourselves.
It's a lot of work but I love it.
I have a coaches clinic this Saturday and then a tournament in two weeks!

Alex is super busy with school getting ready for his FE exam.
All civil engineers have to take it in order to graduate.
Poor kid is so stressed.

On a happier note,
I've been awesome at making dinners this semester.
I used to hate making dinners because around 4pm every night we would look in our fridge and have no idea what to make.
So now, I make a menu of what we'll eat that week.
I go shopping Monday for all the ingredients.
I've been doing this since the first week of the semester and have continued to do this.
It's so nice!
And I enjoy cooking these new meals.

I've also tried new desserts.
This fall my favorites have been mini pumpkin pies, mini apple pies, and pumpkin spice cake (easiest thing ever).

Well that is what we've been up to.
When I find my camera cord I promise to get some pictures up.

Oh and I'll post about Kenny's mission call!!
It should arrive tonight!
Can't wait!

Baked Perfection is my new favorite blog.
I've found so many good recipes I want to try. 
So far I've tried the key lime cupcakes with blackberry filling and blackberry frosting.
These were a complete success.
I brought them to my brothers when we were having dinner and he had eaten a ton and said, "I'm going to go throw up just so I can go eat some more."
My dad told me that was the ultimate compliment.

Tonight I made cinnamon sugar donut muffins.
Alex loves muffins so I thought I'd try. 
These were awesome!

These recipes are awesome because they're easy.
They don't take very long either.

For conference I'm going to do blueberry muffins from this site!
