I just have to start this by acknowledging how blessed I am to have had the opportunity to do an adventure like this to New Zealand and make a small trip home during it! I have told many of you how absolutely perfect this was because I was starting to get very home sick and was missing my family, friends and especially those darling nieces and nephews like crazy! However, I was also not ready to be completely done with this adventure because we still have so much to see in New Zealand!
So... a huge thank you to my husband Dan for being willing to let me leave him there, for working much longer than he wanted to help keep us financially stable, and for being so supportive of me in so many ways.
Currently, I am making my journey back to New Zealand!! It was a little bittersweet because in general I am terrible at goodbyes. However, I am beyond excited to see Dan again and also very much looking forward to starting up our travels again! We have never been apart this long and as Dan puts it “I am really excited to get my wife back” And I am really excited to have my husband back too! :)
The wedding went amazing! Hailey was absolutely stunning and the day was perfect! I am so happy for Hailey and Tyler and wish them all the best! Such an amazing couple and so much fun to be a part of the beginning of this new journey for them!
I had a jammed packed 3 weeks at home! It had to be that way to fit in visiting all 8 of our nieces and nephews, siblings, parents, friends, and coworkers! I loved every minute of it though! I have never experienced the feeling of returning home after such a long time away. The smiles, the laughs, the pure joy of just being with those you love most! I really tried to embrace every moment with everyone I got to see!
Well, I am half way through this 14 hour flight from LA to Sydney and ready for some food and maybe another movie. Hopefully sleep will come again too! Thanks to everyone who made my trip home so special and we will do our best to keep in touch! I will keep you posted as Dan and I hit the road again for the first time since mid-July! I hope Waka is ready to see the North Island!!
Enjoy a few pictures of the kiddos who have stolen their auntie's heart :)
