AW: Farewell Party

I did not get to AW this out yesterday, so I thought I would do it today because the board is slow! My awesome (former) co-workers threw me a going away party Monday night at McCormick and Schmicks in the Southside. It was really fun and they got me some really thoughtful gifts. I got these: [url]http://tinyurl.com/l8qka4[/url][url]http://tinyurl.com/l5jcr5[/url]Typically, I don't care for Vera Bradley, but I love the print they picked out for me! And the wallet is perfect for traveling since I never carry a purse when I travel, and it holds everything, even my passport! Lastly, they got Dave and I a VIP lunch or dinner at this new restaurant in Doha: [url]http://www.almourjanrest.com/[/url]I have pretty awesome co-workers :-) Just wanted to share!

    That was very sweet of them! I'm not a huge fan of VB either, especially the really really really big bags in the bold prints, but what they picked out for you is really cute!

    Very cool! Are you getting excited? Nervous?

    I can't believe you're going so soon!  Are you nervous at all?  You definitely need to start a blog because I'm sure most of us here have no idea what it would be like living there.

    Thanks ladies! I am going to miss my co-workers very much, and they are going to miss me too :-( They did a great job with the gifts, SO thoughtful!You know I am not getting nervous just yet. I think once we are on the plane to Doha, it will start to sink in and I will feel nervous! I am getting excited and am anxious to get there so we can get settled! We still have our Montana trip coming up next week, so that will be a nice vacation before the craziness begins! Oh, and I started a blog :-) [url]jenniferanddaveindoha.wordpress.com[/url]It has our last name in the title, but it's so common that I am not all that worried about stalkers. I may DD this later though, so bookmark it!
