I’m Back!

I fell off the wagon.

It seems like I just launched my blog and then the whirlwind of life whisked me away. Mike (my fiance who I’ll be marrying in October… YAY!) and I just bought our first house! For anyone else conducting the house hunt at the moment, you know the struggle. Our lease for our apartment is up at the end of this month, so we were really trying to make sure we had somewhere else to go. We could have extended our lease, but after 3 years in a one bedroom apartment, we were ready to stretch out into some more space. Especially after a year of working from home together.

We also welcomed a new member to our family, Ms. Kelly. (As I’m typing this she’s actually zooming around the living room and isn’t used to the hardwood floors so she just keeps sliding into the walls whenever she hits the brakes!) We were missing a little piece of our hearts without some paw prints in our home and adopted her. She was actually brought here from the Bahama’s. A lot of dogs were displaced due to the hurricanes and their shelters were overcrowded. Kelly was flown over here with a group of dogs and was the last dog left from her group who had yet to find a home. She was heartworm positive and actually just finished with her treatment a couple of weeks ago! It took her a little while to warm up, but if you saw her now, you’d think she’d been living with us forever. Her favorite time is cuddle couch time and she loves to chew a bone with her parents at an outside bar.

With all of that we’ve also been preparing for our beach wedding in October! I share this all with you to say… I know these are all excuses. And since we’ve moved and have had some time to settle into the transition, I’m going to make sure I keep my blog a priority, because I really do love sharing all of this with you and am super excited to share some of the things that I have lined up!

Thank you for taking a peek into my life today and thank you for being patient with me!

Leave a comment below and share with me what you want to start making a priority! I’m excited to hear from you and I love you all!
