Goodness me.

The last few weeks have been WILD!

A new semester starting
Shaun getting ready to start his MBA program
Shauns Family coming to visit. 
Crazy/Evil Toby Joe.


I actually decided i needed to chill out with school. I decided to take a few less classes and will graduate when I can. I have ALWAYS piled it on a little too high and... I'm freaking sick of it. I'm now going to get a part time job and enjoy not pulling all nighters every night to keep up. I'm still busy but i don't have to been so stressed that I can't enjoy time as a newlywed or proud puppy owner. 

Shauns classes start tomorrow which will be crazy! I'm so excited and proud of him! He is super excited to see what an MBA is all about and finally get going. Its going to be a lot though. For the pre readings he had to read an entire book, for each class. Good heck! They also told him that he needs to have at least one person that will no matter what tell him that he can't quit. They told him that it will be the hardest and slightly worst 2 years so he needs to have someone that will keep him going. Comforting. 

We also found out that Shaun will be coming to logan to recruit for AGCO. Since they are paying for all of his airfare and hotels we decided i would tag along as well! We're super excited to go visit, and see some friends that we have missed! Cody...Lauren... bonfire?? That isn't till the end of october though. 

Toby went from the best most perfect puppy in the entire world to a complete pain in my... He is very much a puppy and we truly love having him.  Our place constantly looks like a tornado came through but it keeps him busy while I work on homework. He still does really well with sleeping through the night, peeing outside, and not chewing on our furniture so i would say he is a keeper. He is great to have, when I get overwhelmed with school or Shaun does with work, heading to the park with Toby completely changes our day. He is a lot but I still think it was a great decision to get him... Shaun might tell you otherwise. Ha, he is still adjusting to having a dog in the house. It really quite bothers him but he is a good sport.  


Here is a bunch of pictures of our little beast. 

Giving him a bath. 






He snuck into the closet and got to his treats. He even figured out how to open it! Grrr.

Right out side of our complex. Gorgeous!


Other than that we haven't been up to much! But i'm sure that will change here soon. Shaun just mentioned that i won't see him till tomorrow till 10pm FREAAAAKKK Thats not ok,  6-10 thats a long freaking day! Yaay gradschool....  


Also,  I was craving cookies today but didn't want to make 4 dozen. So I made up my own recipe! Turned out pretty great! Go HERE to my personal recipe box. Cookies for two!


SAVANNAH

There is a little place down south, on the coast called Savannah. This little Savannah may just become my new favorite vaca spot!

Shaun's family came to see us for a few days so we decided we would head down the the coast that weekend to see what Savannah was all about. Instead of getting a hotel we decided to rent a little house from the site home away.  We actually use this site a lot when we travel and have really come to enjoy it. People rent out condos, or homes pretty much anywhere in the country/world. Its so much better than a hotel and we have been able to take Toby which of course is a must.


Saturday we went to Tybee Island and went Sea Kayaking across to a little beach. All but Shaun's dad struggled to get across to that island. It was hilarious. That man could kill a bear with his bare hands, or knock out a bull with one punch (true story).

After the kayaking, we ran to an amazing restaurant called the Crab Shack. We ordered a big tray of seafood and ate till we couldn't any more. I think there was literally 5 lbs of shrimp along with 5 lbs of crab, mussels, and every other type of shellfish you could think of.  We took home 4 boxes! 

The restaurant also had a big "swamp" area with a bunch of alligators...or are they crocodiles..? Doesn't matter, all i could think of is what might happen if Toby got away from me... and he wasnt even with me. Morbid right?! 


The next day we rode around around on limo size golf cart and saw the city. It was an amazing. The buildings there are so old and beautiful. I want to buy one so bad! I think it would be amazing to buy them, restore them, and sale them. Hobby for the future I suppose.


Scott was about as wild of a driver as my dad! Thats a scary thing folks. 

 Toby didn't so much enjoy the ride. He was pretty bored.. as you can see.

After touring the city for awhile we decided to stop and grab some cupcakes and head for the 5 hour drive back to Atlanta. I hate driving, it makes me so bored and restless, and when I get restless, I get annoying. I can admit it, it's fine. Luckily for Shaun I sat in the back with the dog on my lap meaning i couldn't possibly bug him. most peaceful trip he has had yet. 


I love savannah, I think there would be some awesome dives, and deep sea fishing down there as well! hint hint... dad!
