Homesick

I fly back to the blizzarding town I call home this coming saturday. It has been a little under 2 weeks and am I ever homesick! Initially, I decided to leave for so long so Kyle could have a break. We haven't been living with each other too long and things were getting a little overwhelming. I could tell he needed some space and a little freedom. He was enjoying it at first but, now the poor guy wants his family to come back. I admit, im missing him like crazy aswell.

It has been a nice break though. I flew down to Vancouver Island to stay with my dad for 2 weeks. It has been a blast and I was able to see brothers and sisters I haven't seen for years. So much has changed and everyone is all grown up with little families of their own. This has really been an eye opener. I never realized how much I have been missing - family is so important and I really need to make more time for all of them. Korbin needs to know these amazing people as well. I forgot just how awsome this part of my family is!

It really has been beautiful down here. It is so refreshing to come back to where I grew up. The trees...everything here is like a huge breath of fresh air. Sooo revitalizing. I was turning into a person I didn't like being away for so long. Stuck at home all day while it is freezing and gloomy outside can really take its toll on you. This trip has made me remember where my roots are and what is really important. I can not wait until kyle and I have the opportunity to make a trip down together. I really want to share this with him. Possibly convincing him into moving down here. I miss it.

My dads house is beautiful. Right on the river with huge, old rustic trees everywhere. Right now, the sun is shining off the water straight into this huge log home. So peaceful and relaxing. It may be cold out but, there are beautiful blue skies with little fluffy clouds floating by. There actually is snow on the ground aswell, just a little! It added just that perfect touch of winter here.

I am so homesick but, in all honesty. I really wish I could stay...
