The beginning of the end/ANZAC Day

With ten months down and two to go, I reckon this is certainly "the beginning of the end".

Aussie fact: "reckon" is a completely normal term in Oz. It sounds exactly the same in Aussie ears as say "I believe" "I think" etc. Whereas for us, we classify "reckon" as a bogan (hillbilly) term... I guess I'll be a little hick for a while!

These lasts consist of locational, personal and legal ;) things... better make 'em good!

This week was great: spent quality time with my Aussie bros, had some girl time with Mags and Rhian, Maca got New Moon :):), epic pasta night, and so so much more!

Watched Lion King with Ben

Truly a classic, hey Video Ezy guy??

Happy Anzac Day!!! Anzac stands for Australia New Zealand Army Corps - this day would be the equivalent of our Memorial Day yet much more patriotic. A normal Anzac Day consists of a dawn memorial service, morning nap, big breaky, start drinking before noon, head to your local RSL Club (Returned and Services League) and play 2-up until you've lost all your money. Wahoo!! We took parts in bits and pieces :) We had a few girls spend the night, went to the 4:15 am -yes that's AM people- service to support our Army bro, Tate, went home and napped for a few hours, had an amazing breaky, then the girls headed to the RSL where they won 2-up every round!! I, on the other hand, opted for a relaxing day at the beach with Cat and then saw "Date Night" that night - sooo funny! I love Aussie holidays!

4am - arrive at dawn service

I thought the sun was supposed to rise at dawn?

My Aussie roomies for life - love

these four more than I can explain...

they are my family

Oh theeeeeere's the sun

Memorials

Can you find me? Peek-a-boo!

We got home around 6 and slept.....

After waking from our nap, breaky time!

Fruit, yogurt, ham (triple smoked), cheese,

toast, croissants, jam = YUM!

The girls headed up to the RSL and I did some Mooloolaba relaxing on the sand. The weather is amazing right now - thank goodness! Absolutely loving it and soaking it up :)

Can you spot the sailboats and plane?

There were fighter jets in honor of the day

And helicopters to keep the

sharks away, thank you!

Phew, exhausting week but very good! Trying to keep myself busy but miss you guys terribly - can't even explain! I'm so thankful for the time that I have had here and trying to take advantage of the couple months left. BIG weekend coming up - Maca's 21st! Till then, love you!!!
