I have to jump on this 2016 trend. That was a year to remember! We were living Down Under, I was teaching yoga by night and at an English school in the day, travelling around, doing yoga at every location we stopped ever (why though?? Poor Sam! š) - I spent a LOT of time upside down 𤨠Weād settled in Brisbane the year before but Van life was in full swing. We were weekend warriors, climbing, surfing, driving down to Byron Bay whenever we could, drinking an inordinate amount of green juice (cause, you know, Byron Bay š¤·āāļø), listening to Xavier Rudd on repeat. Then came May, and a surprise - I was pregnant, and equal amounts excited and terrified. We cancelled a trip to Borneo as I couldnāt face it with the brutal morning (all day) sickness and went to the Blue Mountains instead, where at the top of a mountain Sam proposed (pic 14). I was so surprised it took me a full minute to answer šŖļø The bump grew, and grew, and grew, and I had the most awesome, unfettered, wild pregnancy, living in paradise - what an experience! The final pic is cheating as itās early 2017⦠and now, fast forward and in two days baby Eden turns 9 ā¤ļø Itās been such a joy to look back at 2016. I could have easily uploaded 2000 photos, not 20. I didnāt know it then, but 2016 marked the end of my āoldā life. Since then itās been full of love and abundance but Iāve also spent much of the last decade feeling frazzled and exhausted to be honest š„“ Itās pretty sweet to look back at 2016 Sarah having all that fun, and doing all that yoga š #2016
