Summer in the States

Home sweet home!

We made our first trip back home since we moved to Perth last October. We scheduled the journey around the perfect time ... summer in Tulsa & 4th of July (my fav)!

We stayed in Tulsa for the majority of the time, made two trips up to Grand Lake and spent a wonderfully hot, few days in Dallas.

In Tulsa, we relaxed in the Beasleys pool, barbequed with Ricky's fam and spent as much time eating/drinking with close friends and fam. It was really hard to juggle the time...definitely need longer than 2 weeks to not only see everyone we love, but spend enough quality time with each person! So if you're reading this and thinking, damn I didn't get to see them. Don't you fret, there's a Qantas ticket with your name on it. Haha. Please do come! But also...we will be back in Sept - Oct for a couple weddings!

Here are a bunch of fun pics from our trip.

First I'll show you Grand Lake, then some Tulsa and Dallas/Ft Worth.

Disgustingly massive American portions. We were shocked!

Happy 4th! Cruisin on boat with my sister-in-law, Karrie

A lil Jello shot on 4th of July will never hurt anybody!
