Italy: quick update
Only a quick update because I need to email all the friends and family. :)
Well, we made it safe and sound! woohoo! let's see... Italy is awesome. The traffic is insane, people just drive, drive fast, and don't care about cutting you off or getting a half inch from your car! it's crazy! it's hot like Texas, with dry hazy air thanks to the volcano nearby. But the thing that sucks is they don't have central air conditioning. The only rooms that have air are the bedrooms, so it's so hot inside the house. We'll only be in Temporary Housing for a few more days. On Monday, we move into our 3 bedroom house! We can't wait! The people are for the most part amazing and friendly, and they absolutely adore Carlee, it's so funny. You get great treatment here if you've got a little one. Okay, I need to write up some emails, so I will add pics and some more later. We are so excited!
note: it's 1:18pm back home and 8:18pm here. ¶ 1:16 PM 1 Comments

Transitioning
So, we have been so busy it's rediculous! I haven't even updated this in so long!
Real quick update:
The move went as smooth as it could have, thank God. We stayed in a hotel for a few days while they packed everything into the truck. After that, we headed down to Orlando since that was where we had to ship the car out of, so we figured we'd fly out of Orlando Airport and bought tickets for that night. Risky planning it that way, but thankfully everything went really smoothly. That was a Thursday night that we flew into Texas, spent the first week sick with a stomach flu. :( After finally getting everyone over that, we've been visiting family and taking care of errands nonstop. And now yesterday, we just found out that our plane tickets to Italy are for Tuesday!!! 4 days notice! How awesome is that?!? So, it will continue to be nonstop until we arrive at our new home. I'll give more details once we get settled in. :) ¶ 7:04 PM 1 Comments
