Out and About in my New Neighbourhood


My new neighbourhood here in Idaho is...errrmmm....pretty different from anything I am use to! Firstly, there are the breathtaking hills and mountains that are there every morning to wake up to and every evening to watch the sunset behind. Then there are the sweet neighbours and horses. My brother, sister and I all grew up riding horses. My mum was pony crazy as a kid so as soon as my siblings and I were about four/five, we were on sat on horses and my sister and I never looked back (the novelty wore off with my bro after a while!) So, although the fact that I have to drive into the city for classes and to see friends (and running hills in the heat has already made me loose my love for running!), there are definite perks to living where I do now. Since change is hard and I keep looking back and missing my Holland home like crazy, I am trying to be purposeful in seeing the blessings in my life where I am at now and being grateful for this new season. That said, here are some photos from my beautiful neighbourhood...
