At The Park

Just hanging out at the park. We brought Olive to the park with us! Oh my goodness she was crazy!! I can't believe her!!! O well, the park was beautiful so was the weather. There was a slight breeze but it felt so good. I love the parks here they are so nice ad amazingly clean! Which is surprising to me because there seem to be so many at the park always. Anyway, all is good here!!







By the way, do you love the picture?

Leaving Utah

I am in the airport getting ready to take off! Wish we could stay here longer, there is so much to do here I LOVE it!!! :)
We went to stadium of fire on the 2nd of July. It was awesome!!!! We saw David Archuleta and Brad Paisley. Brad Paisley was WAY better than David Archuleta by the way /:)
On the plane finally!!!!!




Took for ever to get on, and then there was some random seating issue that is taking a long time to fix there are lots angry people it seems like now!! :/ Oh well, anyway we are going to take of pretty soon!! The good news is that the flight will ONLY take 14 hours, they really cut but some time......not! Well kind of I wish we could stay in the United States!! Speaking of the US we were here in the US during the 4th of July!!!! It was amazing!!!! There were so many aerial fireworks because they changed the rules.
I just got a new app for my iPod so I will be able to post more often! So exciting!!

Stradbroke

  I just got back on Monday from our adventure to Straddie (Stradbroke).  It was totally awesome! :) We first had to jump on a ferry called Minjerribah.  That is what Straddie used to be called, which means land of mosquitoes. :o  It didn't appear to buggy to me.  Thank goodness. 
  After we got off the Minjerribah, we went to go get our 4x4 passes.  Because apparently you have to have one of those.  As we started to make our way to the hotel, our GPS decided to make go down Industry Road which was a dead end construction site. :)  So we decided to ditch the GPS.  We did finally make it to the hotel.
  The beaches at Straddie were AMAZING!!  They had crystal clear water, white sand, and awesome waves.  Speaking of waves, well typing, we took surfing lessons.  Ok, surfing is a lot harder than you think it is. It is also easier not to get up on your knees first.  I don't know why, but that is what the instructor man said.  I did get up a couple of times though.  Except the nose of my board kept on nose-diving.
  I almost forgot about 4 wheeling.  The island had a ton of trails and we just couldn't resist.  Sadly we had to do a U-turn because the trail just wasn't coming to an end and we were constantly running into puddles, well large ponds.  The trails were really fun, but our car, Jim didn't like that he had to get dirty.  I know this because he told me in his Aussie accent and lisp that he was too pretty for 4x4ing.  He is a Pajero Exceed, so I guess he's pretty fancy.  Jim has a lisp because the man who sold it to us had a lisp.  :)
 That is my adventure to Straddie.

I'm down-under

  I am finally posting again.  It does get kind of difficult though to post while you are still going to school.
  Australia honestly isn't that different, of course they speak with an accent, which I don't have by the way.  Other than that it really isn't that different.  the food is kind of different, but that's because it's right by Asia.  Sadly there is like no Mexican food:(  and it is really hard to find beans. you have to go to some special store just for beans.  Everything here seems to come in really small portions. I don't know why, I guess that's just how Aussies are. 
  One strange thing in my opinion is that there are just a ton of wild turkeys running around everywhere like the park and by the roads.  Another strange thing is that the people don't seem bothered by bugs at all! :o  STRANGE! Because there are a TON of bugs. Oh well.

3 Weeks!!!

  I can't believe that I am really moving to Australia. On top of that I'm leaving in three weeks!! Everything just goes way to to fast. One I find out that I'm moving then the next I'm leaving in three weeks. Can you believe it? Three weeks is going to FLY  I just know it will. My parents have been looking for houses in Australia over the Thanksgiving weekend. They found one that they liked and today we found out that will be living there. Olive can also stay with us in that has so that is a bonus. Another bonus is that it is close to a really great school. Of course we have to wear uniforms, most good schools in Australia do though. So its not that bad, and it's NOT like they'll have totally trashy uniforms. It will really be different living in a whole country, not to mention continent.
  The plane ride there will be fun though we get to ride on a huge, I mean HUGE air plane. That should be fun. Then for Christmas we will stay in Sydney for a while then take another plane to Brisbane.
  I never realized this until we figured out we moving, but Australia has some WEIRD names like
  • Brisbane 
  • Indooroopilly
  • Wagga Wagga
  • Perth
  • Melbourne
  • Hobart
  Any way I just thought I'd share a few of  my many scattered thoughts. 8:-)

    Bows for Bailey

    Bows for Bailey is a recently added holiday.

    It is where you wear a bow AT LEAST once a week. This celebration is in honor of me moving to Australia. It all started when I told my friends that I was moving they decided that we should do something in honor of me moving to Australia. Since I had worn bows everyday for a while we decided that we should all wear bows. So that is how Bows for Bailey or B.F.B was started 8:-)
    
    Bows 8:-)
