Love Love Love my husband! He has been so encouraging and supportive in the tough times lately. We have been faced with tons of medical bills (with no solution to my issues) and he has been very realistic and keeps me in line so that I take everything one my one. I put everything off because of school being so hectic and then when I get a day to chill out I focus on all the other needs like a messy house, bills, homework/projects/meetings, and trying to spend time together and with family. On the rare days that I actually get to sit for a minute my mind just races with everything that there is to be done. Thats when I'm most thankful for my man. He holds me, comforts me, and encourages me to take everything one day at a time.

Yesterday was our 5 year anniversary and we spent it by going out to dinner and then studying! It wasn't the best way to celebrate but gotta do whatcha gotta do! We spent some time talking about the last 5 years and pondering what the next 5 years could bring! Will we have kids? Where will we travel? Where will be live? Who will our friends be? Lots and lots of questions that only time will tell!

How's Huxley?? Our pup is no pup anymore. He will be 1 in December and we think he has finally reached his growth spurt. He is over 60 lbs and is just as much of a pain as always! He learned how to whine and he uses it daily.. very annoying! He still likes to bite and nibble and tends to bully Jas more than anything! He is super sweet and tender and gives lots of sloppy kisses. His favorite food is ice and anything that we are eating. He really likes chick-fil-a fries but will eat ANYTHING in his reach. He thinks he owns the whole house and he is pretty much right. He sits in our cup chair, fluffs the pillows on the couch to get comfy, and rolls around on our bed (even pulls the sheets and comforter with his mouth and digs with his feet) to get comfortable. I'm thinking maybe this weekend we can try and get some family pictures but we shall see!!

Enjoy!

married life takes work..

Yep, there I said it.. married life takes work.. well it's definitely not easy. I think going into marriage we totally thought we wouldn't have to work on things because we'd been together for 4.5 years and we had this.. WRONG! Jas irritates me, yells when all i want is peace and quiet, leaves stuff all over the house, rigs things that require fixing, doesn't do things i ask, and the list goes on.. BUT with all of that said we are learning so much and we are learning to work together and communicate and make this work! We may argue and be mean at times (mutually) but every time we come out of it and know we love each other and want to make marriage work because we are spending the rest of our life together! Also, in his defense I'm a brat, and yell/fuss, make it seem like nothing he does is right (when they are totally fine) and am just plain annoying at times.

We have been married for 5 months and will be celebrating our 5 year anniversary on the 26th.. school is crazy crazy busy and I graduate in less 6 months!! I cannot wait to be a nurse and I definitely cannot wait to have more time to spend traveling with the hubs and making more time for family and friends...

Right now life is just sooo hectic and crazy that I barely have time to think but blogging does keep my sanity so be looking for more..
