j'adore.

Blah. I've been in such a blogging rut. It's weird because life is totally happening but my blog is just not! We'll start this update with HSH. Home Sweet Home Cupcakes is basically thriving.  I took on my first major project thanks to one of my loyal readers, twitter followers, and mutual acquaintance, Stefanie, the VP of Mountain Pointe's senior class. On September the 25th, I will be baking 500 mini cupcakes for Mountain Pointe's Homecoming which is probably the most incredible oppurtunity I could have ever asked for. Everything has been officially launched as of now because of the arrival of my beautiful pink boxes!!

Excitedly opening my boxes after practice on Monday!!

HERE THEY ARE!

PINK LEMONADE CUPCAKES! (ah-MAZING!)

My sad sorry looking Snickerdoodles with Cream Cheese Icing that I made for the girls. (Stupid AZ heat!)

Speaking of the girls, my badminton girls of course, they're great. We made our final cuts yesterday to make a team totaling 22. I'm very pleased. They're such a bunch of sweethearts that are so much fun to be around. I'm really loving being able to bond with them and help them grow in their skills. It's so rewarding and plus they provide endless entertainment and laughter to my long days.

It's weird to think everyone is going back to ASU tomorrow and I'm just waking up to go to work. A year ago I was eager to go to college and it just wasn't everything I anticipated. I'm so satisfied with my life right now. I think I tell Trey that all the time because I truly am. I know come December even being out of school I will say it was the best non-semester of my life because I was living for me, not my parents. 

I'm so very excited for everything that lies ahead of me in the coming months. The cupcake projects/orders, the badminton games/practices, being totally and completely wrapped up in Trey, and just living. YES YES YES. FINAAAALLLLY. :) The pieces of my life are finally fitting together and making a true picture and it's everything I could have ever hoped for. I've never done this, but I thought hey it could be fun to make a little playlist of all the songs currently capturing my heart.

1. Mine - Taylor Swift
2. Mrs. Robinson - Simon & Garfunkel
3. God Only Knows - The Beach Boys
4. Sympathy - Goo Goo Dolls
5. Bent - Matchbox 20
6. The Way I Am - Ingrid Michaelson
7. Neutron Star Collision - Muse
8. Secrets - One Republic
9. If It's Love - Train

:) Enjoy.
