Dear Maggie and Sailor,

I don't even know where to begin. You guys really are the best plain and simple. Its hard to put into words how much you really mean to me. The simple fact that you are both sitting on the couch with me as I write this to you shows that you love me just as much as I love you. There are so many great qualities about you guys I really just don't know where to begin to express how amazing you guys are.

I think one of the best things about you is that you guys love me unconditionally. I could accidentally bump you with a cabinet door or throw the ball into the bush, but that doesn't change how excited you get when I walk through the door or call you into my room,. You always come with the same amount of excitement and It rubs off on me. You're always down to hang, and you don't keep score against people when they do something you don't like. you both forget the wrongs and move on which is something I could really learn from y'all.

Another lesson I can take from you guys is that naps are not over rated. I have never met two dogs that sleep as much as you guys do in my entire life, and you guys don't just sleep- you SNORE. But, neither of those things is bad. I really could take a couple more naps and I'm sure my quality of life would go up for sure. Thank you for being such good nappers and showing me that its okay to sleep whenever and wherever I want to.

To Maggie, Im so thankful to have had you in my life while I've been growing up. You aren't getting any younger, but thirteen years old looks good on you girl. I'm proud of you for overcoming your hearing loss and still being such a spunky pup. You're just as fun and weird as the day we brought you home and I love you so much.

Sailor, you are insane, but I love you bud. When we finally decided that we wanted Maggie to have puppies and my parents decided we were going to keep one, I'll be honest and say you were definitely not my first choice of the litter. You were the runt and all your brothers and sisters picked on you so bad but i'm really happy we ended up with you. I've never met a dog who likes cuddles as much as you do and I'm really happy that you'll sit on my lap whenever I want you to. You're a pain in the butt, but I think I speak for the family when I say that we wouldn't want It any other way.

I love you guys so much,

Lilly

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
