because life should be eventful

Well.. we are moving.. again. I think we should become nomads. Moving three times in one year qualifies for that, I believe. 

When we moved to Tyler, we knew our living situation was temporary. We are literally living in a shack and the drive is 1.5 hours for handsome one way to work. He has been such a trooper sacrificing that time for me to have this job. But, we have been constantly looking for a new place to move. However, people don’t seem to be dog lovers as much as we are, especially for great danes. So you could blame our dogs for our current living situation. Yes, let’s….

Anyways, we found a great place in Lindale, Tx which will make Davey’s drive only 45 minutes or so one way! We will be living in an actual house with lots of space and a nice yard for the dogs. So, we are VERY excited! I just want to get moving over with already!

Along with moving, we are just about 2 months away from the wedding! EEE! I am so excited. We are winding down with projects and what not so it literally is just a waiting game until the wedding! We are going to Nashville this weekend to plan out our ceremony and meet with our Pastor so that will be really exciting. 

I made these little treats, which are somewhat healthy, because I am nearing the end of my patience with dieting for this wedding 🙂 Can’t wait to do some real cooking and baking for you in our new house!

Enjoy! Xo

Mix in the granola. Then refrigerate for about 5-10 minutes to just harden the chocolate a bit.
