It's been awhile since I've updated...I've been quite busy between company coming and me going to Florida for 17 days. It was sooo good to be HOME for that short amount of time! I really enjoyed spending time with my family and taking Chase and Kenzie trick or treating. We went to Azteca (of course), hit up a few corn mazes, movies, etc etc etc. I miss home SO much. I wish Tylor was stationed closer. Two days before I left to come back to Washington my uncle had a brain anerysum. Luckily his friend found him in time and hes been in the hospital, slowly but surely improving. Now I'm back in Washington, it was good to come back to Tylor and Jaeger, I'm hoping to go home in Feb, when Tylor isn't working nights (yes, I am planning my schedule on what would be best for the dog lol) It will be interesting to see how this Thanksgiving goes with my homesickness....it will be different, thats for sure. BUT I am so happy I get to spend it with Tylor this year! This is our 4th Thanksgiving, but only 2nd one being "together" and luckily one of Tylors friends from work invited us (and Jaeger) over to their house. For everyones safety I'm not going to attempt to cook a bird or any other meat....we are just in charge of a green bean casserole...which brings us going grocery shopping at 7 tomorrow morning....the day before Thanksgiving because we have put it off. Are you surprised?! We went out to dinner with some friends last week, and seen Paranormal Activity 3 (for my second time) It was good to get out and socialize with people.
We also went driving around, in North Bend we saw a HUGE herd of Elk at the base of the mountain. We of course pulled over and took a picture. It was an awesome view. I love our little adventures. I am going back and forth on my thoughts of whether or not I want to go to school for a Vet Tech or continue my education/experience on office clerk/assistant. I really need to know billing and coding to work at another office. I would enjoy the vet tech way more in the long run...but from what I understand it involves a lot of math...and we all know I am HORRIBLE at math. On my college placement test I scored so high in English that I don't have to take any English classes, but so low on math that I have to take 2 math classes before I can even take college algebra! When I say I am horribe at math..it't not an understatment.
Tylors doing great, he is working the night shift until Feb...so that sucks. But he still only works about 16 days a month so thats a plus..he never works a full work week so I can't complain.
Our monster puppy is doing good as well, this past week we had a scare, well..2. 8 hours after Jaeger ate he regurgitated UNDIGESTED food. Concerned me..but I blew it off. Like Tylor says, "hes a dog, dogs throw up" 3 days later he did it again. I freaked, googled, freaked more. All my searches were pointing to Megaesophagus. Which basically means the food doesn't get to the stomach, it just sits in the esophagus until the dogs reflex's regurgitate it. Very bad disease...the dogs life span isn't as long, they have to eat a special way (standing on hind legs, basically) for the rest of their life, and about 20 minutes after they eat you have to keep them standing...YEAH RIGHT...have you met our dog??! And then is the VERY HIGH risk of them aspirating. So needless to say I made an appointment with the vet. She asked if he was a fast eater...yes, extremely fast...she suggested us slow him down eating by only feeding him about 5 pieces at a time. If that doesn't work...he will have to go back for a barium and xray to test for, you guessed it, Megaesophagus. I don't think I breathed for a whole minute after she said that. It scared me to death after reading all the tragic stories. I was upset for the whole rest of the day. I couldn't even think straight. I feel way calmer today, we have brought some new treats for Jaeger the past few weeks, one being dried sweet potato sweets...healthy, but very hard and rigged. And the other being a "senior" antler chew that has mainly the marrow (since Jaeger chews WAY too hard on his antlers, and has the chipped tooth to prove it) Maybe they just caused some irritation. He only regurgitated twice, and the last time was Friday. It is now Tuesday and we haven't had a problem. I am going to continue to hold back the treats. Just pray for our brat dog...if anything happened to him I think I would die from heartbreak. I know people laugh and make fun of me how "obsessed" I am with my dog. But nobody will ever know how much he has helped me with my homesickness. Theres been lots of times where he has been my only company...he has made me laugh every single day. Its not easy moving away from your family...especially when you go from sunny Florida to gloomy Washington. I feel a lot more confident that Jaeger doesn't have Megaesophagus...but if he did I would do whatever it takes for him to live as long as possible, as long as he still had a quality of life. Even if that means harder work and more stress. I love this dog....if you have me on Facebook then you know that haha Maybe Tylor is right....I do just need to become a damn vet :)
The rain is here. This is my first winter in Washington. I JUST got adjusted to the "summer" and that wasn't even the worst part! Wish me luck.

Busy Busy Busy
A lot has happened the past few days. Almost 2 weeks ago we adopted a little black lab puppy we named Ozzy. (8 months old) He had the sweetest personality but just wouldn't stop attacking Jaeger...it was more than just a growl or snap...that we could work with and fix...this was a full blown attack with no warning. We unfortunatly had to make the 6 hour drive (which we somehow turned into 10) to Moses Lake to return Ozzy. That was a pretty sad day. We can't have a dog that unexpectingly attacks. Blue, my moms Catahoula (rip) was like that...he had to be seperated from males his whole life, even after being neutered. (which Ozzy was). Me and Tylor take Jaeger with us EVERYWHERE...as with our next dog. With our lifestyle we can't keep them seperated their whole life. So....the search is still on for our next dog. I wouldn't mind having another Elkhound...or a Lab, Golden Retriever, or Klee Kai...or anything with 4 legs and fur :) haha Tylor is wanting a more "manly" dog and just DOES NOT want a Golden Retriever...lets see how long until I can make him break and agree with me :) haha We've driven in the mountains a few times, went to Snoqualmie Falls...BEAUTIFUL! Tylors mom comes 2 weeks from today. It'll be so nice to see a familar face! Then we move into our new house Oct. 13. We are wanting to have our entire house packed by the time his mom gets here so we won't be super busy during her whole visit...and of course we've done nothing so the next 2 weeks are going to be super busy. I'm so excited to move and actually have a yard with grass and a privacy fence! Not to mention the safe area...it gets old hearing sirens ALL the time. I go home to Florida for a few weeks October 19th. I am SO excited! I miss everyone sooo much! So October will be a very busy month for us. I'm already stressing about leaving Jaeger with Tylor...I'll have to make a very detailed list of everything he eats lol Tylor is still liking his new job...and LOVING his schedule. Can't beat being off 16 days a month...that makes me feel a little better about Jaeger staying behind...but next time I still wanna take him with me! lol He had a 6 month vet check up 2 days ago...the vet was very impressed with his coat and his teeth...hes in excellent health!! :) Better be....the dog eats better than us! I think I've pretty much summed up the past 2 weeks or so...I'll write again when something else interesting happens lol

Just an update
Nothing too big or exciting has happened since my last post. Tylor did find some hunting land, its about 2 hours away but atleast he found something around here. Its so different than hunting in Florida...SO many rules and about 50% of the land is privately owned. Jaeger hasn't had anymore bee incidents, although he has come extremely close. He likes to stress me out :) Tylors doing good, he started his new job and so far he likes it. I am loving his schedule...he only works about 15 days a month but its 12 hour shifts, so thats no fun. We have decided to move on base, we went Thursday to get put on the list. Right now we are number 4 out of 22 so hopefully we just keep moving forwards instead of backwards. I am sooo looking forward to the grassy yard and 6 ft privacy fence! No more pine needles sticking in Jaegers hair...and no more incidents where he eats pine cones. I'm not sure how he's going to react to grass haha I think I will feel safer too. I won't be nervous to take the dog for a walk down the road which is near impossible in the neighborhood we are in now. I have decided not to take Jaeger with me when I visit home for a few weeks....I tried to tell myself to stop being so nervous and paranoid but theres still too many horror stories out there for my liking soooo Tylor will be in charge of Jaeger for the few weeks I'm gone. I hope the house is still standing when I return lol The weather has been great this month! No more rain! It's almost been too nice, this week has been in the 80's and since Washington doesn't believe in air conditioners me and the dog have been very uncomfortable. Hes in front of the fan eating ice cubes as I'm typing this. Still looking into companies to ship my car from Florida....ugh why does everything have to be so expensive?! A few months ago when we checked we could have done it for $900 and now some of the bids are up to almost $2,000! I NEED my car here before I go crazy! And I can't get a job until I actually have a way to get myself there lol Not a huge update, our lives have been pretty boring the past few weeks...time to do all the fun wifely duties like cleaning and laundry...fun!

Hectic Few Days
The last week or so has been crazy! We took Jaeger to the beach, when we got home he kept sneezing and "blowing" out of his nose. I then realized he had a hard bump on his nose. We took him to the vet, she gave him some cortisone and benadryl...which the benadryl we were already giving him. We could already tell a huge difference the next day. After this went away, he started having diarrhea..Lovely, right? Soooo I figured it was from the benadryl, nope...wasn't it. After camping out on the floor with him (to make sure he didn't get dehydrated during the night) Lots of rice and chicken, canned pumpkin, ice cubes, and pedialyte....he pooped out a PINE CONE! Yep, a pine cone. Ok, so no sneezing or bump, check. No upset belly, check. THEN a few days later he decides to smell a bee....stung him right on the chin. We acted fast, gave him the benadryl, held ice on it to the way to Walgreens to pick up some baking soda to put on his chin. Do you know how hard it is to keep baking soda on a chewing puppies chin??? The next day it was 98% better. FINALLY this dog is better and cured from everything! Or not....he lost quite a few puppy teeth in the last 2 weeks, and 2 just in one day...so he decided to eat some cloth off his toy, we didn't realize it until after the fact...sooo more stressing out, more canned pumpkin, and more monitoring his poop for the next two days to see if he passed it all....he did thankfully. We did NOT was to spend 1-2 thousand on a dog to have a toy taken out of his stomach lol I guess needless to say we are going to have to get a muzzle for when he goes outside until he outgrows this stage, he just tries to eat EVERYTHING! But hes a very good, loyal puppy and I wouldn't trade him for anything in the world...he makes me laugh everyday :)
Other than that mine and Tylors lives have been pretty boring. lol We took a ride out in the mountains the other day and I LOVED it! I think I would like Washington way more if I lived more out in the country than in the city like we do now. Sigh, maybe one day. We went to the scenic railroad and ate dinner on a train that was turned into a resturant..it was really neat. I had my first elk burger lol. I finally got in some girl time! My first friend haha too bad neither of us can drive right now even though we have working vehicles...figures. lol Speaking of my car, it got done today, FINALLY!!! I can't wait to get it up here and look for a job! I miss having my own money so much and having to double check with Tylor to buy something...not that he ever says no, but I just miss having "my" money. lol Tylor started his new job today, I'm very excited for him and hope he likes it. It's a 3 year job, and he will work 2 days, have 3 days off, then work 3 days...or something like that lol I'm happy he will be home more. Tylors mother is coming in October, then I'm going home the month of November, I can't wait! I can't believe I've made it 3 whole months here so far, I'm proud of myself haha Some days it seems like I've been here forever, and other days its not too bad. An approvement from the first month, for sure! Well I have a dog and cat to feed and a kitchen to clean....Hopefully next time I write I won't have any "dog problems" to talk about lol

Playing Tourist
I have been bugging Tylor for the past 3 weeks to go to Seattle. He kept saying he didn't want to go because of traffic and blah blah blah. Today, he kept telling me to get ready, but not telling me where we were gonna go. After much harrasment he finally told me we were going to see some waterfall he heard about....I believed that until I saw all the huge buildings of Seattle lol We went to Pikes Place Market...which is sooo cool! We are def going to have to go back there. It was huge! Def not what I was expecting. We saw the gum wall, which was disgustingly cool lol Kinda gross to think about how many germs are on that wall though. We had lunch at the market also, we had gyros...go figure lol We also saw Andrew Zimmerman from the Food Network. It was very cool. Although he wasn't as friendly as I would have thought. We walked around for about 3 hours and decided it was time to go unless we wanted to pay for longer parking (ridicilous) only to find out one of Tylors tires were COMPLETELY flat. We called a tow, waited about 45 mins. The tow finally got there, then halfway to Good Year it broke down lmao but we finally got there alive. It didn't take too awfully long for them to patch on the tire and for us to be headed back home. Oh the Adventures of Tylor and Megan lol It was a very good day today and very eventful. Anytime someone visits us we are def going to hit up Pikes Place again. Seattle is def very different than anything I've seen..people were EVERYWHERE, I think there were probably more people walking than there were cars...which is weird to think about because the traffic is horrible. Well worth it though.
Yesterday we took Jaeger to the beach, saw some jelly fish and also saw 2 sea lions...or seals...we aren't sure which yet lol The one thing I like about this place is there is sooo much to do and to see. I'm going to see if next weekend I can con Tylor into going up to Crystal Mountain and taking the gondula ride...with Jaeger of course...I already made sure dogs were allowed lol It's been a very long and exciting day and we are exhausted. The bed is calling my name :)

Random facts about me
Ok...so maybe I will be pretty good at blogging because it hasn't even been a day...or a few hours and I'm already on my second blog lol I figured I would make this one a kinda fun blog with random things about me.
1. I have minor OCD. Not bad at all, but I do have my quirks lol I count things in my head, when I am writing I have to make the letters that are the same, EXACTLY the same. Essays are very annoying for me to write because I am constantly erasing and rewriting my letters. Just little things like that....I wish I was OCD about cleaning. Now THAT would be something that would be beneficial. lol
2. Another weird quirk about me is that I constantly talk, laugh, and walk in my sleep. (actually I dont "think" I have slept walked in a while, but then again, how would I know. lol) My mom does it, and so does my papa. Not sure about anyone else. It's a nightly thing and my husband HATES it. He can actually talk to me or ask me questions while I'm sleeping and I'll answer them, although sometimes the answers are a bit weird lol Ever since I can remember I wake up and dig through my blankets and pillows like I'm looking for something. Another thing that drives Tylor crazy lol that is something I do a lot, probably atleast once a week, maybe more sometimes. I have even woken myself up doing it. I'm just a weird girl I guess lol
3. I LOVED my life growing up. I lived on an 8 acre (now 10) farm. We had everything from chickens, cows, goats, horses, to llamas, 2 zebras, 2 rheas, a wallaby, coati mundi, 2 bengal cats, sugar gliders...I think I'm missing something...lol and besides our regular dogs and a few rescues mom had, she also bred a few different breeds of dogs...so there were ALWAYS puppies around. I wouldn't trade my childhood for anything.
4. I come from an extremely close family, we lived on the same property as my grandmother and great grandmother so for me moving all the way cross the country is a huge deal.
5. I hate math. I severely struggled with it in school.
6. And I still suck at it.
7. But I love reading and writing. I did extremely well in English. So well, that I don't have to take english classes in college.
8. Speaking of school, I REALLY REALLY REALLY want to get back into it. I feel like I am falling wayyyyy behind and it makes me really upset :/
9. I want to go to school to be a juvenile probation officer.
10. Or a child psycologist.
11. But for now I am just planning on taking medical billing classes since I already have experience working in a doctors office.

15. Sometimes I get sad because it seems like all but a very few of my friends have forgotten about me since I got married and def since I moved away.

17. My brother has the same birthday as me
18. I hate hate hate when I haven't talked to someone in months and then they only talk to me when they need something.
19. I really want to volunteer at an animal shelter, but I know that I would want to take home every single animal. It breaks my heart to see those faces :(
20. I really despise pet stores that sell pets, to me its almost as bad as a shelter. So many puppies that you see in a pet store are sick or have something wrong with them.
21. I have obviously inherited too many of my mothers genes lol
22. We want a lab puppy for our next pet. I LOVE labs!
23. Or maybe another Elkhound, but probably a lab. lol
24. Me and Tylor have an awesome relationship, and not one of those fakey "lets act happy" ones. We never fight, or really even get mad at each other. If we happen to have a disagreement we work it out and we are never upset for more than a few minutes.
25. Probably because he always does something stupid and makes it so dang hard to stay aggravated lol
26. I met Tylor through an ex.
27. I honestly believe that everything happens for a reason.
28. Me and Tylor use to be in church almost everytime the doors were open. Then he went to basic and I got busy with a job so we both kinda stopped going. I really want to find a church around here.
29. I got in 2 wrecks, 8 days apart.
30. The really bad one was on my wedding day. What fuuuun lol
31. Even though it could have been A LOT worse I still get upset thinking about the car accident, and my heart races the few times that I have driven since then (which is 3) and sometimes I have nightmares about car accidents and it feels like I'm actually wrecking. I think I jump 3 feet in the air, scare Tylor half to death lol
32. I miss my brother SOOOOOOO much! We facetime each other everyday.
33. Even though I am 3,000 miles away from home, I still need my mommy and she still helps me anytime I need it.
34. In one of my eyes I have a little black dot. So does my papa :)
35. I seriously think I could live off guacamole. I've been known to eat it all by itself lol
36. My mom got me a dalmation when I was 2, her name was Kia. She was the best dog ever, she slept with me EVERY single night. We had to put her to sleep when I was 16 and I still think about her all the time.
37. I really, really, REALLY want to go to Disney World...SOON!

40. As much as I miss home and DEF my family, it's nice to get away from all the other fake people and make a new start.
41. This city is way too big for me. I just wanna go back to my little one stop light town.
42. Some people probably think I'm crazy for loving Baker so much, but that will always be my home.
43. Everyone my age, especially in the military has a kid(s) or is pregnant. (not that thats a bad thing:) which makes it hard to find a friend without children. Especially since we don't want kids for a long while lol Its great for some people, kids are awesome...but right now I love my life the way it is. I don't see any rush, and theres plenty of time to have kids. I want to spend as much time with my husband as I can with it just being us two. That being said, I'm not trying to offend anyone who has kids. Like I said they are awesome and we can't wait to have one, just not now.
44. I wish I knew where I was going to be in 5 years from now.
45. I wish I would have done better in school so I could get a scholarship.
46. I wish I was sleeping right now since its almost 1:30.
47. I don't want to turn 21..I know that sounds weird lol but I feel like life is going by way too fast. It needs to slow down.
48. I am 20 years old and I'm still scared to walk in the house with the lights off.
49. I love the fact that when me and Tylor wake up a lot of the time we are holding hands (ok I won't put anymore mushy stuff in here lol)
50. Meeting new friends is hard for me, because I am shy. But that changes once I get to know someone.
I do believe that is enough for now. lol

That being said, I'm not trying to offend anyone who has kids. Like I said they are awesome and we can't wait to have one, just not now.
44. I wish I knew where I was going to be in 5 years from now.
45. I wish I would have done better in school so I could get a scholarship.
46. I wish I was sleeping right now since its almost 1:30.
47. I don't want to turn 21..I know that sounds weird lol but I feel like life is going by way too fast. It needs to slow down.
48. I am 20 years old and I'm still scared to walk in the house with the lights off.
49. I love the fact that when me and Tylor wake up a lot of the time we are holding hands (ok I won't put anymore mushy stuff in here lol)
50. Meeting new friends is hard for me, because I am shy. But that changes once I get to know someone.
I do believe that is enough for now. lol

Where to start...
I want to try out this whole blogging thing...but have NO idea where to start. I am a very new military wife, got married in February but I just moved in with my husband in May so I feel even newer at this than I am. lol I moved from Florida to Washington, I miss my family SO much! I knew I would miss them of course, but I didn't realize it would be this hard. Tylor has been awesome this whole time, he never gets aggravated when I'm really homesick...and trust me, it's been a lot! lol I'm doing better now though, the first 2 or 3 weeks were horrible though. Especially coming from an extremely close family. As soon as I got here I was automatically ready for Tylor to be stationed somewhere else, but the good ol military doesn't work like that so I gotta stick it out until they say we can live somewhere else. I still have my bad days where I really miss home but I have more good days than bad. I've met a few really nice people, I haven't been able to actually hang out though since I'm still waiting for my car to get shipped up here. Being at this house all day while Tylor is at work does make me a little stir crazy sometimes. Once I have my car it'll be better though. I can't wait to find a job here. I am going to try my hardest to find a job other than waitressing, but of course I'll take what I can get. I am also wanting to pick up on some college classes. I feel soooo behind now :/ I want to take a class on medical billing so I have a little more experience in working at a doctors office. Although I don't think I will ever have as much fun or have it as easy as I did back home It'll be hard to find another fun job like Azteca and working in my stepdads office. Me and Tylor have done quite a bit since being here, the second day we got here we made a 6 hour drive to pick up Jaeger..a little Norwegian Elkhound. I know its crazy and people probably think I am obsessed with my dog but I LOVE HIM! lol he has made being away from family sooo much easier! I don't know what I would do without him. Just last Saturday we rescued a kitten, we named him Miester. He wasn't very socialized but after just an hour of being at home he started coming out of his shell. Jaeger loves him, always following him around and grooming him. Tylor and I have also started working out together...he puts me to shame but I am still pretty proud of myself lol hopefully I can stick with it. Working out is such an easy habit to get into, but if you miss a few days its just as easy to get out of the habit of going. I need to find a workout buddy...actually I just need to find FRIENDS! lol Well, thats some of the background over the last few months, hopefully I can actually keep up with the blogging :)
