Today I decided I would start my blog. I have seen so many blogs that look fantastic - and with my family and friends overseas I knew it would be a great idea to keep everyone up-to-date.
Well I guess it is time to update everyone.
We were married in San Diego, California. It was a beautiful day.
We live in Provo, Utah. A college town that is pretty chill compared to the hustle and bustle I am used to in Australia.
I moved to the U.S in late March this year.
It was a HUGE move. It was really hard at first, I missed my family and friends. In particular my little sister Cassie who I had grown super close to over the last couple of years. We were flatting together in Frankston on the beach and had the best summer ever!
I just remember the plane ride over was terrible. I felt so sorry for the guy sitting next to me. I was listening to my ipod and every time a song came on that reminded me of Cas, I would ball my eyes out!!! It took so long to gather myself and stop crying. This happened in hour intervals throughout my entire plane ride.
So here I am settling into life in the States. It's been about 5 months and I am getting more used to everything. There aren't drastic differences, just small things culturally, mostly in colloquial language use. I love it here - I feel really blessed to have the life I do now! I am so happy and have time to do things that make me smile. It is a great feeling.
I love my husband - Matt is so much fun!
Today he was at his friend Grant's house helping him install his new fridge, they had forgotten a part they needed at our place. So they skateboarded home to get it. Meanwhile I was waiting for my new friend Natalie to come pick me up, she did just as they were skating up the path to the house. When I got in the car she asked "who were those boys?" I was like.... "um, my husband and his best friend" ...
