I'm a slacker

I haven't blogged in a while because of this little guy.
I know I shouldn't blame him but we are having a great time with him. (Here is he laying by the fire, he loves it). He has just fit into our lives very nicely. We have had to sacrifice a bit in order to make sure that he is taken care of while we are at work/school but it is very worth it. He comes with us a lot of places. He is the "theater dog". He loves going to the theater at the college and he could sniff that place for hours and be happy. And the kids (college students) adore him. He keeps me very active and we get out a lot after I get home from work.

This is Cosmo on Halloween. Scott's cousin Jamin bought him this jersey. He is not posing, he is standing there stiff because he doesn't like to move in it.
We are taking him back to my parents house this weekend and I am trying not to think about it. I can't think about it without my heart hurting. We are going to bring him back over Christmas break but that will be 5 weeks away. It's been nice to have him around while Scott has been working late.

Some other happenings in our lives...

Christmas music has begun on the radio and for the first time I'm excited for it to start so early. Sometimes it doesn't quite feel like Christmas here in Price because I'm used to going to the mall and seeing the decorations all around town. Plus it doesn't snow much here (no complaints with that). So it's getting me excited for the holiday season and getting to be with family.

The countdown has begun and we are leaving for Missouri in 13 days. Next week will be dedicated cleaning my house and getting ready for a LONG 19 hour drive (Ick). We are praying for good weather. I don't want to drive in bad weather, nope I really don't.

Albertson's has turned into a Western Family store here in Price. I'm not usually a fan because I think that they hike up their prices because they know that people will still shop there in support of them being closed on Sundays. But... sometimes they have killer deals. I'm not afraid to say that I grocery shop at 3 different stores here. I like to save money, so sue me. It is nice to have it so close to us in case we need something quick. I would have gone across town before going to Albertson's because they were incredibly expensive.

And finally, the downside of moving... we have to speak in church a week from Sunday. Scott loves it, me...not so much. Oh well, life will go on. :)
