Australia is great. It has cocatoos, cookaburas, skidiveing, and sharkdiving. We went on a road trip and saw shugarkane, banana plants, wild kangaroos, and a brumby horse that mommy took a picure of for me. I got to pet a wombat at the Australia zoo and bought a new stuffed wombat. I got to go in a cave. I start school in a cuple of days. I’m very happy.

Let’s see, after the loading we drove down to Canyon Country and dropped of the animals (that was 5 hours) then to LA to drop off the car (with traffic another 2 hours) then to LAX (30 minute tram). We checked in and sat at LAX until our flight left at 11.55 pm! Fletcher and Kristopher slept very well while Mom, Wade and I did well enough! I can’t ever complain about Virgin Airlines!
We arrived in Brisbane at 6.30 am local time, grabbed our luggage and some coffee then started the 2 hour drive up to Rainbow Beach. As usual, there was no traffic, no fuss and a gorgeous view the whole drive up. This is an amazing country.
Needless to say we’re here, we’re safe and we LOVE our new house. I’ll post some pictures after a good meal and an even better night’s sleep!
Thank you all for your love and continued support of our adventures!

My goodness! Today was a mad rush! Our furniture is gone and the house is empty. All we have to do tomorrow morning is load the car and go. Granted, loading the car involves 6 suitcases, a box, 2 cats, 2 kids and a dog. Oy vey!
Time to remember to breathe! Until next time, CHEERS!

We have finished the two most important events of the year on this side of the pond! The first was Baker’s Acres, a end of the year party that Fletcher has been looking forward to since his first day of Kindergarten. That was definitely worth the extra few weeks wait to move!!!!
The second event, the one we promised the family we’d be around for, was the yearly 4th of July Parade. The boys, of course, had a great time. They got to see their cousin (they only have 1 in their generation) and one of their Aunts. A very nice send off.
Our personal little bit of fun was July 3rd when we invited TONS of friends over for a BBQ. What a fantastic time! Lots of hugs, lots of tears, and lots of friends meeting friends for the first time. All in all just over 40 people popped in and out. Absolutely fantastic! Thank you all!!
We’re at T-2 days until take off. Time to breathe and remember that if we forgot to take it, we can live without it!!
