downsides&upsides

Well, our stuff is officially all in one place for the movers to pick it up on February 27th. Yes, you're reading that right. A week AFTER we leave our stuff is being picked up. Meaning, we aren't guaranteed our things until April 27th. So, be prepared for many pictures of our empty house. :/

Brighter note:MY PASSPORT IS ON IT'S WAY!

This is pretty much the news of the decade. Because I had just let myself come to the realization that I would be taking that almost 9 hour flight alone. And I was not a happy camper.

Now, I am happy. Stressed, but happy.

This time next week, you will hopefully be seeing Europe pictures.

You should all start popping the popcorn right now.

Today marks 11 days until at least Jason leaves. As for me.. We STILL await the arrival of my elusive passport. It's so frustrating that it isn't here (after almost 6 weeks of waiting), and knowing that I'm potentially taking that 9 hour flight to Germany alone, and I don't get to assist (hands on, at least) in picking out our house. Which REALLY drives me crazy. 

I don't know that I'm EVER going to get used to not being in control of things. There is just something about waiting around for people we don't even know to do things for us that REALLY gets under my skin. But, OH WELL. 

For something a little more uplifting, I am sloooooowly working my way through our wedding pictures, and there are so many that I just fall in love with the more I look at them. 

here is a little sneak of my favorites, so far.

I can't wait to share more of these pictures with everyone. 

Now, I'm going to take a nap, and try and fend off this

cold that is REALLY trying to get in the way

of everything I need to get accomplished.

The beginning : And it starts

At the request of many.. (ok, a few).. people, I am officially a blogger. So, if you want to see pictures of our adventures in Europe, you feel free to read this.
