in the next few months...

Big things are happening around here, friends! I'm finally halfway through the semester, and as December approaches, I'm getting more and more excited for the things to come.

Of course I'm so incredibly excited for DJ to get home. He'll be here the beginning of December and I am counting down the days! He hasn't been home in over a year, so it'll be so nice to have him here. There are so many places I want to take him and show him, and I'm really happy that he'll get to spend a lot of time with his family and friends since he won't see them for awhile once we leave. We get to spend the holidays together with our families, and I know it'll be an amazing second Christmas together. :)

Then, of course, I'll graduate. When I came to college, I never imagined I would get my degree in only two years. It's been a lot of hard work, but I'm so ready to graduate. I know I'll miss it, but I'm so ready to start my life with my man in a new state and make new friends and start working. Speaking of which, I already have a job secured in Montana which is a HUGE relief. I'm a planner, and not knowing where or if I would find a job there was stressing me out! So now that I have one, I feel much less stressed. I'm so ready to get there and have a little extra money so we can get all of the things we still need and want for our house! I have tons of DIY's in mind, and I'm excited to finish decorating that little place of ours.

Okay, are you ready for the exciting part? WE'RE GETTING A PUPPY! You guys. We have been talking about this forever. Not only do we finally get to have a normal (aka not long distance) relationship, but we finally get to add a member to our little family. We will be getting a chocolate lab, and (he…she?) will be born in about 10 days. We've already found the lady we will be buying him (her) from, so now we're just waiting to see what her dog has and then we'll know for sure if we're getting a boy or girl. I'll keep you updated! We have names picked out, but I'm saving those for another post ;)

So basically nothing exciting is happening at the moment, but I have so much to look forward to, so you can expect lots of exciting updates soon! And just a warning, I'm already obsessed with this puppy that isn't even born yet, so when I actually have him…prepare for puppy overload!
