CHANGE

 This was PART OF my study for my last ever exam for Uni. I was nervous and excited at the same time.

Nervous because I had failed this exam before..

Excited because I has just found out that I had been offered a job it St Helens as the manager of the Commonwealth Bank Branch. They called to let me know the second day in to my study. At that point my study went out the window.... WE MOVE IN 10 days... We were somewhat prepared and this is what the unplanned trip to the beach was all about.... (We had a strong feeling that I had got the job)

 Our room 2 days before we moved!

 The Chief Packer... amongst her kingdom of boxes and stuff.... Notice the YOGA mat in the background.... Still time for exercise.

This is the "help" that arrived to look after the kids...

 LOOK WHERE WE FOUND THEM AFTER THE MOVE!!

 Day 1.... and we were planting Putting un our corn, potatoes and parsnips... Carrots are on the way.. when I remember for buy some seed. Oh yeah and we have to put up a fence ASAP as we had someone up on the hill watching us and anticipating the luscious new growth!

 Then word got around... as it does in a small town like St Helens... and his mate turned up to see what was going on.

The kids have fallen in love with the new place. We have 3.5 acres of land with which they can cream to their hearts content and run and do what ever the like.. When ever they like.....

 NOTICE the PJ's on Milly... Yeah Milly is out early on her bike... and on the trampoline...

Both of them are loving their bikes at the moment.

This is our street.. it is flat, and never busy. Both love to go up and down the street while we walk behind, or sometimes follow on our bike. 

 TOO CUTE!

The first 3 days we were here it rained on and off.. so there were a lot of puddles to ride through. Wasn't there HANISI!

 Chester was not amused at all the mud up Hanisi's back.......

We told Chester that Prince Charles was coming to Hobart today...

 He cracked us up with his best impression of the visiting royal. .

 This was the ride we went on tonight after dinner. We went for an explore around the area.

We even found a nice bush track to go down.

 Milly Impressed us all with her "Look, NO HANDS!!" trick

We arrived home to see a BIG HAIRY spider sitting next to where we park our bikes..... AND YOU ALL KNOW WHAT YOU DO WHEN YOU SEE A BIG, UGLY, FURY SPIDER......

 You PAT IT?

Yep that's my girls... No fear... Straight in for a stroke and an investigation...

We are loving our new home and the new adventures that we are having. Change can bring about so many new and wonderful experiences. We are so blessed to be here.

Work is going good. I have a lot to learn.. but I have a great team to work with and they are being very supportive.

** I must say that we are so grateful for all the help that we received. For those that helped move our things, for those that came and cleaned our house! We are so thankful for their assistance. We would not have been able to do it without you! You are all wonderful.
