Happy 1 Month Anniversary to Us!

Kevin & I had a very productive day - while I can't say it was "exciting" it was nice to get some things checked off our to-do list.

First of all, we slept-in....woo hoo!! Then, we went to church and heard an especially awesome sermon! Afterwards, our church had a delicious pancake breakfast - with super yummy bacon! Kevin and I then went to Dillard's to get a few things with some of our wedding gift cards. Gotta love the gift cards! ;)

But sadly, when we came home it was time to buckle down so we could both get some studying done.

This afternoon Kevin rushed in our room to take a picture of me studying. I have trouble sitting still while studying so I often move from room to room and from place to place. For whatever reason I thought it would be a good idea if I studied for Microbiology on my bed.....not really sure why. Maybe because Micro is really boring and if I fell asleep reading, I'd be in a perfect place for a nap - LOL! But seriously, I struggle with Micro!


Since we both knew we would be busy, we decided we would have our slow cooker make our dinner. :) It couldn't have been easier. When we arrived home we threw a pork loin in the slow cooker with some root beer (I know it sounds weird but, it's really good) and spices and let it cook. And before serving we made a chipotle sauce for the pork. Five minutes later we were eating tacos!

Here's the recipe:
1/2 Apple Cider Vinegar
2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
1 1/2 Tablespoon Chili Powder
1/2 Teaspoon Cinnamon
1 1/2 Teaspoon Cumin
1 1/2 Teaspoon Garlic Salt
1 1/2 Teaspoon Oregano
Combine on low heat. Thoroughly coat the pork.

Here's a really blurry (not quite sure what happened) picture of my taco:
