This is real!

Today, our trip became a little more of a reality. We finally got our visa applications mailed, fingerprints and passports and all, and just now we booked flights to Rome. We're going to Rome! The Adorers of the Blood of Christ there have graciously offered us a roof for our five night stay.

We both moved out and Raymond is headed home for a visit soon. Just three short weeks and we will be on a plane headed to London.

A big shout out and thank you to Dr. Cheryl Golden at Newman University. This trip would not have been possible without her help in planning and constant encouragement!

We're definitely going to find all these places.
