Time Flies

So I'm feeling very bored...Jerry is at school and I am avoiding doing my homework.  I started thinking...on October 25, Jerry and I will have been an official couple for 8 years!  That's such a long time.  In some ways I feel like we have changed so much, in other ways I feel like we are the same. It's crazy to think about how much we have grown up.  I look at high school students and think I was their age when I met Jerry?  That is weird... I was just a baby!  I was just 16 when I met- not to sound cheesy- the love of my life. 

8 years ago around this time, Jerry and I were going to haunted houses and Jerry was too nervous to hold my hand. It's funny to think about those times!



7 years ago, Jerry was at Tech and I was in Arlington.  We were making a long distant relationship work... I don't know how we did it... but I'm sure glad we made it! 



6 years ago I was a freshman at Texas Tech and Jerry was a sophomore.  Jerry showed me the ropes and was a perfect tour guide!



5 years ago Jerry and I were enjoying each other and enjoying college life.
4 years ago Jerry and I decided to buy a doggie and named her Lucy.  At this point, Jerry and I were in it for keeps.  

3 years ago, I was a senior and Jerry was graduated.  We once again, did the long distance relationship.  Jerry asked me to marry him this year.   


2 years ago, Jerry and I were officially in the real world as grown ups (at least we pretended to be grown up.) We bought our first house and a baby puppy named Rowdy this year. 



1 year ago, Jerry and I were newlyweds and enjoyed every second of it. 

Presently, Jerry and I are hanging low and enjoying the slow/ do nothing/ stay in your pj's weekends.  I love Jerry because he makes me a better me.  He makes me laugh, smile, and feel important. I can't and dont want imagine my life without him. He's my best bud, teammate, and partner in crime.

Labor Day

This morning, Jerry and I decided to go to River Legacy with the doggies for a walk and picnic.  We loaded up a lunch box with sandwiches, pretzels, carrots, and water and headed to River Legacy.  It was PERFECT weather and the dogs had a blast!  Here are some pictures-

Lucy and Rowdy competing over who is in the front:

Lucy and I beating the boys-

Rowdy did not feel like taking a picture-

Picnic Time!

If you look closely you can see a HUGE spider. 

After seeing the massive spider, we decided to eat on top of the picnic table.  Just in case....

Even the dogs got to eat at the picnic!

GREATEST DOGGIES EVER!

Updates:
  • My new job is going well.  The first two weeks were pretty draining, but I truly love and believe in what I do.  The students, job coaches, and teachers are AMAZING! 
  • Garden-  My pumpkins and watermelon have really taken off!  I know that my watermelon probably won't grow, but that's okay.  Hopefully, my pumpkins will be ready by October 31.
