It's official...we're moving!

Well, we've already told some of you, but now we're officially announcing...

In exactly 1 month we will be boarding a plane with about 8 suitcases and a puppy to move back the the U.S.!

It's bittersweet. It's been hard living abroad, but we've grown to love it. There are a TON of unknowns right now, but we are excited about starting this new chapter in our lives a little closer to our family and friends.

We'll be busy this next month going to some of our favorite places and packing...packing, packing, packing. Thankfully we were able to send some stuff home with my mom and sister, but we still have a lot more stuff to pack. (I have no clue how we have so much. And, not to mention, we have a storage unit in the States full of stuff we didn't bring!)

A lot of people have asked what's going to happen to Libby. Surprisingly, it is relatively easy to bring an animal into the U.S. She just needs to have her rabies shot for at least 30 days, a certificate of good health, and a pet export license. And, since she is only 6.3lbs. she can travel in cabin with us no problem. Now we just need prayers that everything goes smoothly getting her license. Everything is time sensitive and needs to be done in a certain order. I'm a bit nervous about doing all of this in Italian, but I have lots of friends who have offered to help us through the process.

Once we know more about where we'll be and what we'll be doing we will share.
