And we're off!!

Hey all!!!

So a term is over, wow that went quickly. Lots and lots has happened and we're having too much fun and too busy to write. So sorry. I will over the holidays at some point.

Breifly, we had some awesome Canadians here, invading Esperance during March, i FINALLY finished all my course work for Reading Part I (GOD LOVE your patience with me Kathleen!! I swear I'll be a better student for Part II!), and we've been planning our own adventures and my family (YEAH!!) have all booked tickets to get over here as well, so there have been lots of date sorting out phone calls the last little while.

My mom and sister arrive in early May! Very exciting and then my dad arrive mid-May for three weeks!! It will be a MONTH full of family!! Awesome.

John and I are off to Melbourne tomorrow for three nights, footy game, comedy show, shopping, tours of the city, easter lunch with Charby's family and loads more in Melbourne. Then we fly to Christchurch where we have rented a camper van for 12 nights and we are touring and tramping through the South Island!! SOO SO SO EXCITED. We're hopefully going whitewater rafting, hot air ballooning, hiking, swimming, hot springing, and we're going to hike the Fox Glacier, see penguins and whales and a whole lot more!!!

We'll keep you posted!

Love you all, and we'll send more from Melbourne and New Zealand! WOO HOO!!

Lots of love, cristen :o)
