Thanks everyone!! It feels good to be at this point!!!

Jgay it depends on 2 factors: 1) If it's stable enough in my hubby's country and he thinks its safe enough to go (I had to cancel my trip twice this pass year because of Instability) and 2) If I can find a cheap enough ticket, summer is peak time in Lebanon and the tickets are NOT cheap they are over $2000 :(

I am Happy!!
