on your mark, get set....

This week is going to be a pretty crazy one with all the packing, cleaning, moving, and traveling but I am SO READY for it! I can't believe I'm trying to squeeze so much into 5 short days and I just hope that I make it through ;) Today through Wednesday is packing and cleaning and just general preparation for the big move so when Thursday morning rolls around I can just hop in my car and get down to Provo! I am so excited to see my new apartment and get everything settled in so that on Friday I can head to SLC and board my plane! So much in so little time... But like I said, SO READY.

in case you haven't heard...

in exactly 8 days i will be traveling 16ish hours, starting from salt lake and landing here...

oh, i'm sorry, do you need a bigger hint? how about this...

just to make sure i'm being perfectly clear, does this help? ;)

yes, that's right folks... little amy from small town idaho is going to RUSSIA! i cannot even put into words how excited i am for this trip. i haven't even been out of the country before! i'm so lucky i got this job as a nanny this summer, not only has it been VERY educational, but there are perks like, oh i don't know, A FREE TRIP TO RUSSIA! i will leave early next friday (the 21st) and i will be coming back the 30th. do not worry, i will take MANY pictures. and as crazy as it is, i am almost (note, ALMOST) as excited that before i leave the country i get to move my stuff back to this place...
