Goodbye Saint Paul, Hello Scotland

We are busy packing, cleaning up, and getting ready to say goodbye to Saint Paul and take a long flight to Europe. The first flight will be 8 hours from Minneapolis to Paris, where we will have a 2 hour layover. Then we have a 2 hour flight to Edinburgh from Paris. We're nervous about taking an international flight with a 9 month old. Here's to hoping we'll all get at least a little sleep!

The weather has been ridiculously hot the last few weeks so we're looking forward to some cooler weather in Scotland!

This past week has been really busy with preparing for our trip, finishing my online class, and trying to see friends before we leave, but it was also a lot of fun!

We're excited and nervous for our first trip to Europe. It's also Chris' birthday today! Because I am so nice I got him a 6-week European vacation as a present. We'll try to update this blog as much as possible with pictures and stories of our trip!
