Getting the Pups to Italy!

So today I started my day with some fasted cardio and came home to make an amazing breakfast. We have a lot of food we need to eat within the next week.
I can't believe we leave next week to begin our adventures!
I am so excited but completely overwhelmed.
We bought our first set of luggage yesterday and miraculously we are fitting all our stuff so far! The military trained Robbie how to pack like a boss! haha

Although, the excitement is def setting in I am beginning to feel a little sad about my last week in AZ for a while. I have lived here almost my whole life and haven't done much traveling so this is going to be a total change! I have never lived away from my parents (no more than an hour anyways) or my nieces and nephews. Most of my siblings live in state as well.
I am learning that the Air Force is going to a great replacement family for when mine isn't there to help. I have already connected with so many wonderful people thru social media who are willing to help us.
We heard from our sponsors this last week and they sound like they are going to be awesome and help us every step of the way. It is so amazing the bond the AF or military in general feels towards other members. It is making the transition easier and def less stressful.

However, we have one small problem. Our puppies.
It has ALWAYS been our plan to bring our pups over to Italy and never thought it would be an issue. Unfortunately, we found out that there was never spots reserved for our pets to fly with us out of Baltimore on the military plane. Therefore, we have to try to send them by different means. We found this out just earlier this week and have been scrambling to figure out what to do.
We have no one to watch our babies while we get the money together to send them over at a later.
Going thru a company or separate air line from us is going to cost over $2k.
I am the type of person who HATES asking for help and especially in the money department.
But I am DESPERATE. We really do not want to have to rehome or surrender them to a no kill shelter.
If anyone can donate to our cause that would be amazing. I will work even harder to make this page more amazing for my followers and be forever grateful.
Or is anyone has any kind of advice on getting them there in a cost effective manner ASAP that would also be great.

I would also like to thank Danny-J from the Sweaty Betties for being one of our supporters. It mean more to us than you know!

Thank you everyone!
