Hot Off The Press!

As I pulled open the door on our mailbox which is situated at the end of our driveway, I saw the brown envelope peeking out and knew what it was straight away.

I ripped frantically at the envelope - and there it was! Bethany and I stood in the street and screamed with glee, we danced about whilst looking at our faces, our story, our life, all glossy, and all magazined up!!

As you may remember we did a photo shoot a while back for Living Abroad Magazine. Never could we have imaged just how much fun this was going to be, and not only that - our feature is simply awesome. At the risk of being a little big headed here - we rock!

It's not everyday that a normal family who set out on the unknown journey into a new life, would one day claim not only victorious in the move, but we would tell the world about it too by being featured in a magazine.

Below are the scanned pages from the magazine, you wont be able to read the text but you can see that it was a fantastic 4 page spread. Of course our Kiwi friends will be subjected to many viewings as I will carry a copy of it in my bag at all times, and as for you all in the UK - go buy it!

Truly amazing, truly truly amazing.


We learn and grow as a family everyday, making choices and doing things we never thought possible. We never really knew where this journey to the other side of the world would take us, and a journey it has been so far.

Through it all we have triumphed magnificently. I think its safe to now say we have made it.
