(Monet and my dad walking near their home...)
I am unsure when I will be posting next, I suspect it won't be long. I know Lyndon has got the Internet all hooked up in our new home and our MacBook is waiting patiently for my fingers to start tapping away on it again.
(Monet and her cousin chatting and eating!)
Lyndon has stacked our new little fridge (our furniture arrives about 12 days after us) with some of my favourite things - glass bottled coke, Red Bull, 500ml Stella cans. Oh! he does know how he can spoil me. *smirk* He has even gone and got some fresh ham for Monet, seeing that is her favourite.
(The back patio at my parents, Monet and Grandma made the paper decorations)
The new oven has been installed, there are new block-out blinds in all the rooms, a couple of bean bags waiting for our bums to sit on, new cutlery, a big heavy-based frying pan, new beds for us...the list goes on. Enough stuff to get us by until the day our shipping container arrives, packed with our goods from Trinity Beach.
(Monet playing at the next door neighbours of my parents.)
I'm 'flirting' with the idea of beginning to pack our suitcases today. Everything is ready and waiting to be packed in, it is just a matter of seeing if it does all fit back in our cases!
(Bubble blowing)
My parents and Lyndon's parents, along with Monet and I are going out for tea altogether tonight.
(Being a Pussy Cat!)
I have requested that only my dad drop Monet and I off at the airport. They are horrible places aren't they? At least this time it is not I who is being left behind - I hate that.
We're off to begin the new chapter in our lives. It has been a long time coming....

Melody, what a moving post. These photos will keep you at ease when you're feeling a little homesick, if at all.
I know what you mean about asking your Dad to drop you at the airport, the more people..the more devastating all round. You've done the right thing.
I'll miss you until we hear from you again. Lyndon is a bloody hero....what a lovely welcome home present.
Oooh - how excitement!!!! The anticipation must be quite palpable.
I am so excited for you!
Eeek!
Wow - how exciting-slash-scary !!
If only Monet's boyfriend knew - he still thinks we'll catch up "next week" ! :) Oh - and i've had to say I love you, BTW. You're both on our 'people we love' list now.
Nothing kinky, like, but there you go ;)
HAVE FUN !
What a great time to be you!
Savour your last few days here and delight in your first few days there.
I am so excited for you.
Lyndon is a star having everything waiting for your arrival :-)

I too don't like airport scenes and cry every single time I take the husband there, even if its only for an overnight trip!
Enjoy your last few days in the old haunts and have a great trip.
