The Last Supper

We just finished our last Sunday afternoon lunch with Reid's grandmother, "Maw Maw". It has become such a fun time for me to visit her and such, and we usually eat way too much food and pass out on the couch, a tradition Reid says has been followed since he was a small child. We will be going to Ohio to visit Reid's roomate and ride back with Aunt Susan, and then we have a wedding in Fredericksburg, so when we get back, we will only have about 5 days before it is time to head to the DFDub and fly to D. C.

I just wonder if we will ever get packed. Reid and I have made this observation that no matter what the occasion- decorating for a wedding, cleaning before company comes, etc. That whatever amount of time you alot yourself, that is how long it will take. If you think it will take all day, then it will. And this theory has proven true, although at first I thought it was akin to Reid's saying "Pressure makes diamonds". Well, I assume we will get it all together, and this not knowing what to expect is quite exciting!

Counting Down the Days

Well, we have been counting down the days, and hem-hawing about what to take and what not to take. We will be flying out of DFW on Saturday, June the 20, and we will be staying with my Aunt Sally and Uncle Bob for a few days--whom Reid still hasn't met. We got a welcome DVD in the mail today from volunteers currently in Swaziland, and that was really neat. It made me feel a little better and less stressed. I just added a bunch of other people's blogs that are going to be at staging with us and a few blogs of current Peace Corps Swaziland residents...hey everyone! We are very excited to meet you all!

The language has been daunting...I don't know if I will be able to make the click sound ever...I guess practice makes perfect!

Invited for June 22, 2009!

We are excited to be going to Swaziland!
