Long time no see....Sorry about being away for so long! The Fall semester is finally over, and I must say it has been a tough one. But let's forget about the lows and focus on the highlights of Fall 2011!
For my Fall Break my in-laws, husband and I took a trip to Disney World! And of course, the most exciting part was The Wizarding World of Harry Potter! It was great. My only complaint is that I wish there was MORE. I want an entire city...no, country...no, PLANET to be based on Harry Potter. *Sigh* The hotel we stayed at (The Grand Floridian) was amazing and the service was excellent. One event that ranked pretty high on the awesome-factor was swimming with the Dolphins at Discovery Cove. Dolphins are officially my new favorite animal. And lastly, the Cirque Du Soleil show was the best live entertainment I've ever witnessed. No CG, no stunt doubles, just fascinatingly difficult talent right in front of your eyes. You if you EVER get the chance to see a show, you must!

Ok, let's now address how fabulous and wonderful Pinterest is to me. I discovered this fabulous website this semester. Only those who use Pinterest know just how incredible it can be. I wish I had it as a resource for planning my wedding over a year ago. There are many, many uses for Pinterest, but one in particular is the ability to find awesome recipes! Especially, recipes for my Crockpot...which I love. If you don't use your Crockpot, I can guarantee that Pinterest will inspire you to dust it off and use it to its full potential. There are also yummy desserts, drinks, appetizers and made from scratch meals just waiting to be tried out!

Pinterest is also provides great inspiration for DIY crafts. (I have never been a crafty person but this website stirs something within me that I cannot deny!) Not to mention Teaching Resources, Fashion inspiration, unique items, Home Decor tips and SO MUCH MORE. But reader beware....It will suck 4 hours out of your day faster than you could ever imagine. In a nutshell, it is addicting!
This semester I have also found myself enjoying my new hobby: Photography. It has been so fun and I love practicing on my family! I should have started this years ago!
