The Big Day!!

Well I can honestly say I am not much of a blogger but if there is anything in my life worth blogging about this would be it. For those of you that know me you know writing is not my speciality but I am gonna assume only those that love me : ) will be reading so please excuse the misspellings, missing words and word confusion its bound to happen.
So for those of you who don't know I am traveling to Switzerland to work and visit with my friends the Browns, who for some reason grace me on multiple occasions with trips to come and see them wherever they land. God has blessed me from day one with their friendship. Ami was my table leader in youth group a long time ago. I look up to her so much as a woman of God. I love learning from her and her family. She has three sweet boys I will be watching.. which is going be so FUN. I'll tell you more about that along the way : )
But so far I am half an hour into my eight hour flight from Washington to Zurich. When I arrived at the airport in Buffalo I was fully intending on paying $50 for my second bag and unloading stuff from my suitcase for my dad to take back home due to over stuffing. But PTL I got to take both bags for free : ) all 100lbs of stuff.. crazy 100lbs.
Saying Good Bye to my dad brought unexpected tears to my eyes but off I went no turning back. I safely arrived in the DC international airport and already felt like I was in a foreign land. I LOVE the airport people are so cool, I could watch them for hours. I especial like to take notice of all the fashion tends! Just after shopping at duty free I got my last Wendy's meal (my only good option) and sat down to eat at my gate. Making my last calls and texts good bye to everyone I heard the flight attendant call for Schnitzel.. oh yeah that's a ladies name!! How awesome is that??
I was seated in row 38 out of 39 with two aisle and three rows of seats.. the plane was huge. First class had like a bed and desk for each seat. Lucky me I got the window seat and no one was seated next to me. Blanket and pillow ready to go with my book Redeeming love, (which I am enjoying.. thanks roommate) I was pumped.
God knows I have some big expectations for this trip just him and I and already he has overwhelmed me with the mountains of clouds. But now I am going to rest it will be 7:05am when I arrive.. Or maybe I will watch Greys. I can watch in German or English haha.
