Today was our 3 year anniversary-crazy!! Needless to say our lives have changed quite a bit since we got married. I know never in a million years would I think I would be packing for a move- let a move across the world. We didn't really get to celebrate this particular anniversary- the whole different continent thing kind of put a damper on things.

But on a good note- we officially have a home in Doha! I'll feel better once Gamayu actually has the keys in his hands but hopefully that's only a few days away. I started on the search for movers which was a lot harder than I thought. There's so much that goes into an international move-ports,customs, pallets and packing oh my! I've got a few calls out and gotten a few quotes so hopefully something will come about sooner than because it takes anywhere for 6-8 weeks to get to Doha.

We also got a flight confirmation for Gamayu's trip back to the states and our trip back together. He'll be back on the 25th and I'm so excited to see him- he also gets to go to one of best girlfriends-Rachel-wedding now. So our last week here will be basically a whirlwind. Rach's wedding on the 26th- we leave for Tampa on Tuesday-the cruise leaves on Thursday- we fly back home on Monday and leave for Doha on Tuesday.

Today was the first day I've cried in weeks- I think I realized just how scared I am to do this. There's just no other way around it. I know I'm going to miss the big things like my family and friends but it's the little things that go along with them that I'll miss the most. Like running to Target and gabbing to Amy or Rach while I walk around. Being able to run to Mom and Dad's for a bag of french fries because I don't want to go the extra mile to the store. Going to Decatur to watch the Georgia game with our best friends- Blake and Lindsey Meharg. Falcons football tailgating with my folks and friends and our group with our mini-tailgate. (Their food is always better :) ) Driving to ATL for dinner then spending the whole night partying it up because we can never have just one! I never thought I would grow to love Georgia as much as I have- but I do and it's my home. The memories I've made here are priceless and I'll never forget them.

One month to the move

One month to the move....well for me anyway. Gamayu has been there for a lil over a month himself. I'm so beyond excited to see G again- I hate not being able to see him and talk to him when I want to.

I still don't think it's hit me yet that we're really doing this. I've put on a smile and said I'm ready but I'm not sure if it's really there....yet. I know ultimately we've made the right decision but I still have fears about what we're doing.

I've always wanted to do more with my life so I know this is my chance to do everything I've always wanted to do. Travel, school, work, and new adventures are all on the horizon for our little family and ready or not here we come :)
