Our last night in the states...

Well, the long anticipated night has finally come. Tonight is our last night in the states. Andy, Claire and I are staying in a hotel in Downtown Silver Spring and we are spending our time hanging out, planning our day tomorrow. I was sad to say goodbye to my good friend Ashley and her son Cole today and hopefully we'll get to see Andy's Dad and brother Matt tomorrow before we go.

Claire is learning to use her walker and she really enjoys walking outside! We'll certainly try to bring this with us so she can walk up and down the halls of our hotel in Italy.

Our last weekend in Olney.

This is our last weekend in our home in Olney and we've been various mini projects around the house. The main thing that we've been working on is packing our suitcases for the next three months. It is certainly a daunting task to try and figure out how to pack what we need in the next three months and how to fit it all on our airplane baggage. Packing for our trip to England was one thing... but now thinking about Claire brings this task to a whole new level of difficulty!
