As much as I love summertime I am kind of looking forward to this fall for a few reasons. I think they all revolve around JJ starting grad school.

1. My husband will be starting grad school which means we will be making more money since his stipend will pay more than his summer jobs. We will make it to the $20,000 a year mark – yay :)

2. One benefit that BYU gives their Biology and Chemistry grad students is free health insurance for the students, as well as their spouse and children. We wont even have to pay any premiums!

3. JJ will be quitting his gas station job which means he wont be bringing home the greasy, very unhealthy left over food. We are usually really good about buying healthy food but we haven’t been eating so well this summer because of the free food. Eating french fries, egg rolls, jalapeno poppers, fried chicken and corn dogs 3 times a week is not something that would be on a list of ways how to lose weight. Now I know I am not overweight but I have gained 7 lbs since we moved to utah and I blame it on the gas station food.
