to go to a wedding out of town. A good friend of his is getting married this weekend and Matt is in the wedding. Yes, I was invited to attend, but after asking a few of the people we trust to watch our dogs no one was available or it was too much of a hassle. I did look into a local kennel but just didn't feel right. I'm sure it's a great place and dogs love it there...but I feel like that would be similar to bringing a human kid to daycare and leaving them there for 5 days. Everyone might not agree with me on that but that is how I felt about it. Plus the final cost was going to set us back about $400.00 (including their vet visit and shots and the stay and extra walks thoughout the days) and we just couldn't spring that right now. So it was decided that I would stay back and Matt would go to the wedding without me. I was very bummed because I had already requested the time off from work and was looking forward to the wedding but also getting out of MN for a while...and I had already bought a new dress!
But after the decision was made and Matt knew how bummed I am he suggested we go on vacation this summer for our 1st anniversary! I asked him where he was thinking...drumroll please...the Grand Canyon and Yellowstone! I have been saying I want to go there for years! I am now sooo excited for this trip in late June (it won't be exactly over our anniversary because I can't be away from work that week) and will start my trip planning soon...probably this weekend while he is away.
Also while he is away I have sooo many plans. I am so excited to spend time with my sister and 1 of my college roommates and finally clean out our guest room. I won't go into too many details about these things because I'll write more about them later, but I am kind of excited to have the house to myself! I have never lived in our house without Matt (he lived there for 6 months alone). I mean I am home alone sometimes because I work M-Th and he works M-Sat, but have only slept in our house without him twice and I was really nervous the 1st time. I already told him I plan to have the dogs sleep in our bedroom, not in the bed because he HATES that, but at least in the same room so I'm not alone.
Other than that today is my last day this week at work (because I had taken tomorrow off for the wedding) so I will be enjoying a 4 day weekend! T.G.I."W"!
