Trip 1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
I can't believe after almost 11 months - we finally have received our invitatation to travel. We have to be in our region exactly two weeks from today!
Of course, after so long, I have NOTHING in order! I have a number of documents that need to be updated before we leave (we have to hand carry them to the region). I have to pack. I don't know what to wear. I checked the weather and it's nice (yahoo!). Our little hopeful is not quite 2. I'm so excited I can hardly stand it!
