Our big adventure


Where should I even start?! I guess with my husband wanting a new job. He had been in the same job for over 10 years and was searching and searching for a new career. Something to challenge himself in. Well.... he sure got that. Next thing we know he has joined the Army. So many emotions came with this. Excitement.... Scared.... Sad.... But something we think is going to be great for us.

To start with he had to leave for 3 months for training. In this time we had very little communication with him. It was so extremely hard but we did it. Now he is at the next lot of training, which is even further away from us. The communication is so much better, we are able to talk everyday all the time. Facetime is a life saver.

During all this time, we decided to rent our house out and Axl and I would move back to mums, in the granny flat. This is so we could save for the big move to Adelaide 6 months later. I had applied to Uni in Adelaide, not really thinking much of it and I got excepted. Firstly I did not think it was going to work at all. Where would I live? How would I work? Day Care? But within 3 or so days, everything just fell into place. I lined up a job, a furnished rental, Daycare. It was like a massive sign saying I have to do this. 

And here we are now. In less than 2 weeks time. Little Axl and this excited scared mumma are off to the big city. We live in a very small country town now. I have lived here since I was 7. Now we are moving 18 hours away to a capital city where we don't know a single person. 

This is exciting! Xx.
