Orange Muffins

This morning we made Orange Muffins for breakfast and the letter Oo. I LOVE cooking with my kiddos, but PLEASE remind me next time to NEVER cook with them before 8:30 am!! I am just NOT a morning person, so trying to organize all of this so early in the morning was just HARD!

The muffins were very yummy though!
