Hi Everyone!

How are you all? Good I do hope. Sorry it has been such a long time since I last blogged, life has been a tad busy! We moved Nan out of our house and into her old house which we had been renting while we were away -- although the move was a little hectic she seems really settled and content away from all our crazy and noise! =)

Our stuff arrived, horribly packed, from Jersey last tuesday! We currently have the living and family room unpacked and looking nice - the rest of the house is still a box jungle! We are slowly getting there, but after 2 weeks of packing and unpacking and chaos we are all a little sick of it all! Hopefully one more week will see our bedrooms unpacked - I am looking forward to not waking up to a wall of boxes! =)

Unfortunately the guys who packed us up out of the apartment where, as we feared at the time, highly useless and so it has been a task finding things in mislabeled boxes, not wrapped correctly or sometimes even at all! They even snapped one of Dad's fishing rods into three pieces so that it fit into a box! haha...who does that!?

Yesterday, we took the day off to celebrate Thanksgiving! Yes I know it was a few days late, and on the wrong side of the world BUT it was wonderful none the less! We had all the food we would normally have, including sweet potato casserole and stove top stuffing which we carried back from the states with us! We all know how i love the stove top stuffing! haha. So all in all, it was a good first thanksgiving in Australia, great food surrounded by people we love! =)

So I shall stop my rambling and post some photos for you all to take a look at. I hope all is well with everyone.

Lots of love

Hi Loves,

How are you all? Good I do hope! Well just a quick post to say I've made it back to Australia! It took me ages as I had to first catch a train to Paris, and then a flight to Dubai and then fly to Sydney but finally, here i am! =)

Alls well here, I am just laying low until I get over the jet lag, today I was brave enough to drive on the wrong side of the road to the shops to get Nan and I some food! AND i didn't crash! woohoo! =)

So that's it from me at the moment, please comment and let me know how you all are!

Lots of love,

jess

Hi All,

How are you? Good I do hope! =) Well somehow, (I am not sure how the time went so fast) our 3 weeks are up in France and it's time to get on another plane! =) Meish and Andrew have already headed off to start their Italian Adventure, Mum and Dad head back to Jersey tomorrow and I am flying the long way home to Australia!

The weather has turned back to sunny and warm for us, so the last few days have been spent adventuring and well, eating! haha. I am going to put some photos of below as always! I hope everyone is well and I will blog from Sydney!

Hope alls well,

Lots of love

Roussillon is known for the hills around it that contain bright orange ochre that they use to paint their houses with!
