Final Countdown....3,2,1!


With only a few days left before departure, all of our plans are coming together quite nicely, and packing will commence today.

Christmas was great; getting to spend time with my family before I leave. I also received a few necessities for my trip: a guide to Great Britain, wool socks, the important face lotion for that dry winter skin, and footed PJs (thanks Brattons). Just so you have a little preview...

My Aunt Robin and I

If you have been keeping up with my blog or know me at all, you will know that I am not the most well dressed person, so I have had to invest some money into "teacher attire" so here is a little taste of what I have now. Notice the necklace I am wearing is one I bought while I was in Prague on my las t romp around Europe.


I also wanted to tell you all of my dear friend Jessica's blog. She is an aspiring photographer and does phenomenal work. She asked if I would be a model for one of her shoots, since it was a traveling theme, and I was happy to help her out. Here is the link to her blog, jessigene.blogspot.com. Check it out, she has some really great photos...and not just of yours truly!
