Details About The Upcoming Weeks

So almost all of my friends know that I won't be returning to the Dirty Burg for the fall semester. Ill be doing something just a wee bit more exciting. AKA traveling to Kazakhstan with my bff - Jenn, my fav cousin - Tony, my aunt - Sue, and my coot coot baby nugget cousin - Xander. I know what you're thinking, ooh she's just going because its the land of Borat. WRONG! Tony and Jenn are actually adopting a little baby girl!!! gaaah soo excited for them! It's going to be amazing!

So our first flight is on this coming Wednesday at 10:40am I believe. From Salt Lake City, we fly to Minneapolis. We have a couple hour layover there, and from there we head off to Amsterdam for three whole days!! Then we fly from Amsterdam to Almaty which is the capital of Kazakhstan? eeeh, im not too sure so don't hold me on that one. We chill there for a while and catch another flight to Karaganda, which is where the orphanage is located. We will spend a couple weeks in Karaganda; Jenn and Tony will be going to the orphanage daily to bond with the nugget, and Sue and I will be watching the little hell-raiser, Xander! We then have to leave the country for the "appeal" process. This time will be spent in Italy (IT-LEYY) visiting Tony's extended Italian family. I meet these guys at Tony's and Alaina's weddings and they are the nicest people ever! I'm so stinkin' excited!! Once the appeal process is up, Sue, Xander and I will head back to Amsterdam for a couple days while Jenn and Tony go back to Kazakhstan to get the little baby nugget whose name is Giovanna (not sure if I spelt that correctly). Basically its going to be awesome awesome awesome!!

That's basically the outline of the upcoming weeks of my life! Crazy exciting!
I'll keep you guys posted!
