7 Years

7 years ago today we made the move from the Hunter Valley, Australia to Wyoming, USA!

The last 7 years have been good to us (mostly) and I feel we have benefited immensely from being alone to start our lives together. That first year was hard, it was ALL new. Not just for me, for Cory, but for us together. We have felt the struggle and pull at times but have learnt from those things too.

I miss a lot about Australia, especially with my sister and brother in law being here (they just left on Wednesday), it reminds me once again of what I do miss. I know Cory misses things about Australia too, just not in the same way, which is understandable. My family always asks (and it has been more so lately), if there is a possibility we could move back to Australia, but I just don't know when and how that can happen any time soon. We really are happy with our little lives in the USA and are excited for what is in store, if that means one day we can be back in the land of Aus, then so be it, but we are not living in wait of that day. I can't. I would go insane. In a lot of ways I do wish that my 2 worlds could collide in a good way and I could have the best of both worlds! I would have loved for my children to grow up being close to my family and their cousins...

Along with this though, there are so many benefits for us living here. America truly is the land of opportunity and we are thankful for all the opportunities afforded us thus far and are excited for the prospects for the future!

YAY for 7 years!

Times Like These

I wish I didn't want for things, like a house, a yard, a patch to call home!

Don't you just want her.... I know I do!!

(this is not the EXACT puppy we visited today and played the possibilies game about {names and all}, but she is the same coloring, her nose is dark like this but she has a little more darkness on her eyes too, she is divine and I know she wanted to come home with us!)

Yes, suffering from nostalgia...
