Can't believe it's December already! Next week is the last lecture week of this quarter. Woohoo! I'm really really pumped for Christmas this year (to my own surprise) though I'm also constantly reminded by my to-do-list that I have so much school work to take care of before the most wonderful time of the year comes around.

Fall has been a really good quarter this year. Classes and teachers are interesting, and we have awesome lecture videos that I can watch at home if I miss a lecture or two (or every one of them!) It's true that school can get very stressful and annoying sometimes, but I think I'll most definitely miss it in the coming year.

Trying to stay awake in class this afternoon, I made a Lin family time chart for the following 2-3 years (it's mostly my plan for school and maybe baby #2. OH!) It's just for fun...BUT, notice those 20s in circles. They are my age, and I seriously find it shocking I'd be 24 someday, and it's going to come sooner than I want it to be (GASP!)


Okay, some real updates of our Novemer...

In order to prep for Seattle's rain, Gary and I both got some new gear this fall:

I love these rain boots. They make my life so much easier walking around campus when it's pouring outside. No more wet feet from stepping in puddles :)


Gary got a green jacket from Helly Hansen. His new rain coat in the last 5-6 years. He was so excited trying it on and wearing it all night at home on the day we bought it.

One of our favorite desserts this season is probably the Red Velvet Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting from Trophy, until we baked it ourselves (hehe):

One Saturday morning we brought all the ingredients over to Connie's and ta-da! It was surprisingly delicious. The frosting was straight up cream cheese, butter, and sugar.

Lastly, a quick picture update of Zoey from week 32:

There's less and less room in my stomach now. Though that doesn't affect my appetite at all (hence the round face ;)



Thanksgiving weekend pictures are coming soon :)
