March Update

Things continue to go well in the Land Down Under! Jen is now employed and has the easiest possible commute to work. She walks about 7 min to get to her job at a print shop where she has been working for a little over a week as a graphic designer. There's nothing like getting a paycheck!

We've been having fun adventures on the weekends including attending the Mardi Gras parade a few weeks ago, celebrating Kat's birthday last weekend, and visiting a wildlife center with lots of kangaroos, wallabies, emus, dingos, and wombats yesterday with our friend Adam who so graciously drove us over an hour north of Sydney.

We are planning a trip to the Blue Mountains in a few weeks for my birthday which we are very much looking forward to. And there is talk of a weekend getaway for Easter since it's a 4-day public holiday over here with offices closed on Good Friday as well as Easter Monday. It should be a fun-filled month!

I was finally able to upload the skydiving video from last month in Cairns, so enjoy!

Kat's b-day party required a costume so we came as birthday fairies!
