Last Day in America...getting ready for Europe!!

So today marks my last day in America :(! Let's hope though that the weather will permit my family to fly to the South of France by Christmas day tomorrow! My family is avidly checking the weather in hopes that we get no delays because starting tomorrow morning, we have 5 flights until we make it to Omama and Opapa in Eze! We fly from orange county, to chicago, to amsterdam, to paris, and then to nice...and if one flight is delayed, we may not make it down to Eze... and if that happens, we will probably stay with my dad's bro Vic and his fam in Amsterdam, so no worries!

But today is a sunny day, so crossing my fingers!! I am actually shipping my bags because we don't have enough time to check them in while traveling during xmas, but its actually nice for me hahaha.... So after we go to Eze for xmas day, we leave on the 27th and are spending three days in Friesland (northern part of the Netherlands) with my mom's whole side of the family to celebrate my grandma's 80th... i am sooo excited! we are staying in a huge house on the lake and will ice skate, play in the snow, bike ride, etc :)... then after that i am staying with Olivia and Courtney in Pareeee! and Then off to London to meet up with my program, and then to two week orientation in Siena, and then living in Florence!!

suchhh a whirlwind and so crazy that i leave xmas eve and may not come home until august, but i am SOOO excited!!!!
