I'm home

Yesterday at I got in to the Phoenix airport at 1:40 after my 16 hour flight back home from Australia! I was so anxious to get off that plane and see my mom who was waiting for me just past sercurity. We hugged and she cried and it was the best feeling ever just to be home and take in all that Arizona heat. I was exhausted but that didn't stop us from getting a spicy chicken sandwich, which I was craving so badly, from Wendy's on the way home. Eventhough I was only gone for a month, it seemed like everything was different and I saw things that were always there but never took the time to notice it. It feels great being home and sleeping in my own bed and seeing my family and friends. I am so blessed to have parents who are willing to provide a trip like that for me. I cannot not thank them enough or be able to express that kind of love that I have for them for doing this for me.
I miss everyone in Australia. Everyone made my trip just that much more amazing. I loved getting to know everyone. I loved that I felt like I fit in. There wasn't any awkward hello's or feeling like I couldn't talk to someone. You have no idea how blessed I feel to have a family like you. The family was big and loud and though it might have been a tad overwhelming at times, I enjoyed every minute of it. Thanks to everyone who made me feel at home and making sure I was okay. And there will be a next time, oh yes, there will be a next time.
Until we meet again

  1. Glad you made it home safely. Loved having you here and getting to know you a little.... but nothing like "home sweet home" and sleeping in your own bed.

    XOXO

  3. Did izzy give you love or punish you for being away for so long? I'm glad you're home but next time you should bring someone with you. No next time I'll come there and you might be able to meet my mythical husband.
