EXCITED

100_1742

I’m going to pick up Eric at the airport at 6:40 pm tonight. Hopefully he will look more excited than in the above photo :D

I’m so freaking excited I can hardly sit still.

We haven’t seen each other for a whole month, which is the longest we’ve ever gone without seeing each other in the last FIVE years.

I have such a fun, exciting weekend planned for us. We’re going to play tennis, take walks in the cool, crisp fall air, go to the movie, spend lots of quality time cuddling, on Saturday we are headed to Kelowna and then Eric is going to cheer me on while I kick ass in my half-marathon on Sunday and Sunday is Canadian Thanksgiving so we are going to make a mini-thanksgiving dinner together. I took Friday off of work and Monday is the holiday, so I get FOUR WHOLE DAYS off work and school. I’ve been working my butt off this week to get caught up on projects, so it should be a relaxing weekend!

I can’t wait!

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

What’s something YOUR excited for right now?
