It Has Begun...


Well, today we got word that Michael got his visa! GOOD NEWS!!! But wait, I didn’t get mine…BOO!!! Here is what happened. My visa was rejected because of my passport picture that was submitted with the visa. Saudi’s are very conservative and the picture I had taken was a scoop neck…too much of my neck was showing. So, when we were in Houston about 4-5 weeks ago they took another picture. In this picture I put a scarf over my shoulders to cover my neck. Well this was the picture that was submitted, and the Saudi embassy thought it had been photo shopped! So, our relocation advisor submitted the first one that shoe neck to see if they will accept it. If not, I will have to submit yet another picture!

In other news, we have our official pack date when we will packed up! On August 8th and 9th the mover will come in and do their magic! We are down to crunch time and still have so many things to do! ((SCREAM!!!))) Just kidding! Our nerves were a little on edge on Monday finally hearing that our pack date was being schedule but that was all calmed down after we had breakfast with Andres Vazquez! He is defiantly our calm in this storm since he went through the move last year! I also need to give credit to Ben and Ashley Turner who also made the move last year with a toddler and Ashley pregnant between 6-7 months along. They have been giving us lots of tips and tell has how wonderful it will be once we are over there and this craziness is behind us!

Yesterday, we went to Target to have our last family pictures taken before we leave. Here is one of my favorite shots!
 (will update when I have CD)


It took about four shots before we got this one but I LOVE IT!!! We also got pictures with the grandparents. I plan to put a book together for the girls so they will always know how much their grandparents love them!

 Until next time be blessed!

 

Love,

The Myers
