Wow Snowy, you've scared me now! haha. We were married in Melbourne almost 4 years ago - have joint bank accounts in both Oz and Germany, living together for 6 years now... I will really need to get a move on and organize things like translations. I will definately contact you if i need any more help/info/advice! thank you!! I'm pretty sure Dh knows a few profs from Uni that can do certified translations. Good thing we're starting now.

On the subject... Dh went to a friend's birthday party on Friday night, being under the influence he told basically everyone about our plans to move back. I was so angry because our town is quite small, and word gets around faster than anything! He told them not to say anything as we hadnt told his family yet (OMG as if they wouldnt!). Sure enough the very next morning we got a call from BIL saying that they knew. I cannot believe Dh did that. We went to visit them the afternoon and i could tell MIL was upset. She went on and on about how much they understand "my" decision to move back. They said they will support us in everything we decide to do... I didnt say one word because i was fighting back the tears. It all came too fast i suppose - and Ben was playing in front of me. I was so upset because i know how much Ben loves them, and they love Ben, it breaks my heart knowing that I'm breaking them up (so to say). In the end i locked myself in the bathroom.

Well, should go - making a cake
