Beijing here we come!

It's official. On September 1st 2008 we will be going to Beijing for 3 months!!! My husband works for Microsoft and they need him out there for a few months to help set up a new group and we are able to go with him! I am half excited and half scared to death! I've never lived anywhere that didn't speak English. We are currently looking into schools for the girls and also apartments. Even more fabulous than all of this is that my Mother-in-law Elva will be coming to visit for a couple of weeks...THAT I am excited about :D she's used to travelling. I'm not!

Because of this I will be closing my online Ebay store from mid August until January 1st 2009...the reason for December is becasue we get back from Beijing and 2 weeks later we fly to Walt Disney World (opposite corner of America to us!) for a family get together with Elva ;) and also Deb, Rob and Lauren (my beautiful neice). We did this trip 3 years ago in May and had the time of our lives so the only way to top it was to do the same again but at Christmas! We are REALLY looking forward to this trip. So you see I have to close my store. But I will be ready to re-open 1st Jan :)

My biggest fear about going to Beijing is needing more immunizations! :( Keep your fingers crossed for me!

I hope everyone had a lovely Fathers Day - we went on a lovely bike ride. It's a beautiful sunny day here today in Duvall (and about time too!)

Sounds like an awesome opportunity. I would be worried about not understanding everyone because of the language barrier and potential immunizations too! Sounds very exciting though!
