Last Year

Currently i am sitting in a chair doing nothing but looking at pictures from my trip in Australia last year.

As many of you know i had surgery 2 weeks ago so haven't been able to do much! Today I am bored and decided to take a look at my photo albums on Facebook. 

I honestly cant believe i was there, it doesn't seem real! Its so weird to think I was in one of the most BEAUTIFUL countries in the world last year and now i'm back in the freezing cold... I may only be back here for 6 weeks but still! 

Im looking at Coffs Harbor photos right now, and i'm trying to soak all it back in. I lived on the ocean, i could see the ocean from my bedroom window... I lived like that for 5 months. I cant even begin to explain to you how lucky i feel to have lived like that! Do you want to know why els Coffs was so good to me? I got to live right down the street from my best friend Kailee and her amazing boyfriend dane. Oh how i miss them so much! I miss being able to just drive down the street and watch true blood, or greys anatomy with her. Or watch crazy movies with them or youtube videos. I was so lucky to have someone like Kailee, Coffs wouldn't have been the same without her. And last but not least mister Charlie Fisher made my experience in Coffs harbor wonderful. He made me smile and laugh everyday! I will never forget that little boy he will always have my heart! I miss him like crazy. I have skyped with them a few times and how big he is just blows me away! He can say full sentences now and he still remembers who i am. I love and miss you Charlie bear x I miss you Kailee and Dane x and I miss you Coffs Harbor x

In Australia Skylar and I were very fortunate to have some very amazing friends down in Australia at the same time as us. Our best friend in the entire world was living in Brisbane not to far from where we were so we got to spend some amazing times with her! We also had to close friends Amanda and Shelby living in Melbourne and we were lucky enough to spend christmas and new years with them!!! Some of my favourite times where spent with these girls!!! We were also lucky to have my dads school friend Mike from Scotland who now lives in Sydney Australia, we got to spend 1 amazing week with him and his beautiful family!! 

I always had amazing times visiting El in Brisbane!!! I remember the first time i went to go visit her! It was so surreal, I couldn't believe my best friend and i were across the world together!! Skylar, Eliz and I were all in Australia. We had some of the most incredible times together!! Our first pub crawl, New years, Melbourne cup, Coffs Harbor, Gold Coast, our adventure to Nimbin!

Dream...

I had a dream last night that felt so real! It was so real I dreamt about it all night and didn't wake up for anything... Not even when my sisters alarm went off this morning, or when the girls were screaming in the room beside me. Today was just an all in all weird day, it was like i was living inside my very real dream and couldn't snap out of it, the dream was amazing but when you wake up and reality hits you in the face it may have been the worst nightmare of my life.. Im tiered of being a lonely cat

anyway on the upside

Florida is good, beautiful as ever, still very warm, still very sunny, and still very amazing..
Skylar and I spent Sunday afternoon on the beach, it was a beautiful day and the beach is stunning! Oh how i missed the ocean, and the sand between my toes.
Im home in less than 2 weeks which is exciting, i cant wait to see my family, my pretty little niece that is growing WAY TO FAST :( and i am excited to see my friends. There is 5 girls im super excited to see.... Kaleigh, Kayla, Jennnnniffffer and Lindsay!! You all put smiles on my faces everyday and i cant wait to hug you all xx  And last but not least ELIZ, she is home from aussie land and i CANT wait to hug her

My next blog will be happier I promise :)

Florida

Well Skylar and I arrive in sunny Naples Florida November 9th 2011! It was HOT and sunny :) The flight wasn't bad, it was definitely better than flying to Australia! 3 hours was nothing! Im so happy to be back in tropical weather, I missed it so much! Speaking of weather, it has been nothing but sunshine since the day we arrived!! Jealous yet?

I have been to Florida once, and that was in grade 4! I remember a bit, but what I didn't remember was how beautiful Florida really is! Palm trees everywhere, beautiful beaches and sunshine oh sweet sunshine!! I cant stress how lucky I am to be living the life I am living! I cant stress how lucky Skylar and I are to have found Rich and Jolene to work for! They truly are amazing people, and working for them is so much fun! I cant stress how lucky we are to be able to take care of beautiful Faith and Grace, they are the sweetest little pumpkin heads in the world! They brighten any dark room with their smiles and giggles. They truly are beautiful inside and out, I adore them to pieces. Having a perfect job, working for amazing people and taking care of two beautiful little ladies.. Jealous yet?? Well wait until you see the house we get to live in to take care of these precious twins!! This house is STUNNING! <3 I'm in love with it and I think Jolene and Rich will have a hard time trying to get Skylar and I to leave ;) haha! well first off I will introduce you to the twins everyone deserves to see how beautiful they really are!

Skylar and I went shopping on Sunday and got a manicure and Pedicure!! My fingers and toes look so amazing, I honestly cant stop looking at them!! I LOVELOVELOVELOVE them! We also started our workout on sunday, and plan on doing some physical activity everyday :) Sunday we went to the gym and last night we went on a two hour bike ride! Tonight we plan on heading to the gym again! I honestly dont think I would have done this if I didn't have Skylar here to do it with me! She makes it less boring :) I feel so amazing! I am so happy :)

I am honestly so happy with the path I have chosen in life. I have had and am having amazing adventures! I have amazing friends and family! And I have an amazing twin sister that I am able to share my adventures with! I am so lucky to have her here with me, I don't know what it would be like without her! Being away from home has been so much easier because I have my sister with me. I don't have to be lonely, or bored she is always here. I don't have to be a crazy cat by myself, she will be just as crazy with me! The experiences I have had would not be the same if they weren't shared with Skylar! The experiences I have had would be nothing if Skylar wasn't a part of them, so I am happy that I have my twin sister every step of the way with me!
