It's been almost 3 months

Since Paul and I got married. It's amazing to think that the time has flown by like it has. It will be 3 months on Saturday. It's hard to believe I left Missouri 3 months ago tomorrow. I honestly thought I would be slightly more homesick then I have been. But, I also know I have (for the most part) kept myself pretty busy. Between the wedding, settling into our new home, looking for work and starting a new job, it has not given me much down time. I will be flying back home at the end of the month (October 28th - 31st). It will be a quick visit, but much needed at the same time. My dad is taking the day off so he can pick me up at the airport in St. Louis and then spend the morning/early afternoon with me before dropping me off at my mom's school. I'm excited to spend some father/daughter time with him. My plans with my mom are still a little up in the air... but as of today... we will be going to Kimswick, Mo for the Apple Butter Festival. I went a couple years when I lived in St. Louis and loved it. The atmosphere is very midwest and just laid back feeling. The festival has fun crafts and HUGE corndogs which are amazing! I'm so excited to see my parents.

Paul's work schedule is finally calming down a little bit. I love having him home during the week. I missed seeing him. He's still keeping busy with UVA football and the occasional conceert. I count myself blessed every night that he's home with me.

I attended my first PBR at the John Paul Jones arena here in Charlottesville. I did not know I enjoyed bull riding so much. I'm still trying to decide if I like the bull riding itself more or the clown that was cracking jokes between riders. I was sitting in the audience while Paul was working. We were "together" in a round about sorta way I guess. At least I tell myself we were!

Harley is still a good little puppy. Well, minus the fact that he now enjoys chewing on thigns made of fabric... aka... our bedding... 2 big dog pillows, a blanket, and his poor fabric toy. That little buy didnt stand a chance (picture to come). He loves going for walks but does not so much enjoy riding in cars. He has aproblem with getting car sick. We have yet to go on an outing when he does not puke all over our car. We started putting a blanket over the back seat so he can puke to his hearts content. Poor puppy.

Well, I think that's about it for now. Hope everyone is doing well!
