The Sutherland family is embarking on an adventure of a lifetime! We will be living in Puebla, Mexico for December 2009- May 2010. Meredith is getting a head start on the journey leaving Monday August 24. She will begin Spanish classes at the Universidad Iberoamericana and live with a host family. She will be preparing for her family to join her, by finding an appropriate school for the kids and housing for the family. This is a long-time dream of ours and it is exciting to see it happening. Thanks to our friends and family and your support.
After a fabulous party from our family and friends we drove to the airport in Oakland, CA. That morning was more difficult than any of us expected. Plenty of tears and hugs, and NOT wanting to say good-bye.
Stealing as many kisses as possible!!
Meredith flew from Oakland to Houston, Texas for a couple of days before the flight to Puebla. Here she stayed with Ryan, Sarah, Douglas, and Ralph (the dog) McMullin in their new home. Two more of her sister's were also in Houston: Alexandra and Emma Hunter.
