We Got Orders!

Hooray! We finally got our orders (I've only been calling down to MPF every day for the last two weeks, but at least we've got them!). Now we can actually start making arrangements to leave Japan and get a move on :) I'm going to Seattle this weekend for my girl Susanne's wedding (me & Jocelyn on a 16hr odyssey, should be interesting!) then we'll have about a week after I get back and Tim leaves for Texas (he's going to visit his kids and pick up our new Lincoln Navigator!!). We'll be apart for almost a month, wah! I'll have the girls here with me so Caitlyn can stay in school, then we'll join him in Buffalo on the 3rd of April. We've got another wedding to attend on the 8th of April, so we're going to make a quick trip to Colorado from Buffalo (just me & Tim, no kids!!!), and then get started on our long-ass drive from Buffalo to LA. We plan to make a quick stop in Chicago to see my sis and her fam (we just missed Lexi, who is now an ex-pat herself since she just moved to Amsterdam) and then we'll stay a few days with my parents in Abluquerque before finally winding up in LA. I probably won't post much during this time since we're going to be so busy with the move and then in transit for so long, but, rest assured, we love you all and are excited to be coming back to the same continent where our lved ones are located!

Yay! How exciting for you :) I'm sure you'll be very busy and stressed, but I'm jealous you get to move back to the US! It's 8 more months for us... see you in a few days!

We are breaking the law here- only one Podolny girl allowed overseas at a time!
