Just one suggestion you might want to get your passport sooner. I can't remember how long it takes to come in and you don't want to have to pay a rush fee or be stressed waiting for it.

Thanks guys...I'm not really an organized person, but because of that, if I dont write it all down then I wont remember to do it!

And to think this is only the 4 month left version...should have seen the list at 8 months to go
