Sheila said:I earned it, but we will be moving from Okinawa to Tokyo right about that time, so I have no idea if we'll be able to work it out for me to make a trip to the states during that time.![]()
Sheila said:I'm out!Hubby got his orders & we'll be moving in May. I'm making a trip home to the states with the kids during the move to let the Great Grandparents meet the kids and will then be meeting him in Tokyo. I doubt very seriously that I'll be venturing back across the pacific 6-7 weeks later with two little ones in tow again.
Sheila said:Awe, thanks Ginger. Maybe 2011 will be my year to attend.![]()
