Take me back to that place

26 years ago New Zealand played France in the World Rugby Cup Championship game. They won. And now we're back again where tomorrow in our time or I guess today in New Zealand time, the All Blacks won the game!!! It was probably one of the best games I have ever watched in my life. 8-7. Such a close game that it's not even funny. They won with France getting a penalty 7 seconds left in the game. So they stopped and said The New Zealand All Blacks are the World Rugby Champions for 2011!!!!  We were going crazy :)

I'm so happy I have a mum from that beautiful place
I'm so happy that I was sealed in the Hamilton Temple to my mum and dad
I'm so happy that I lived there for six months when I was kid: go to school with no shoes on, drive on the other side of the road, eat cheesy meat pies for breakfast (tastes as good as they sound), be with my family who live so far away, Christmas in the summer time, FISH N CHIPS!!!
I'm so happy that my mum got to go there last year after not being home for the last ten years
I'm so happy that the rest of us got to go with her after not being there for eight... seeing how everyone's grown up and gone on with the rest of their lives..
I'm so happy that I am apart of the New Zealand culture even though I'm not from there
I'm so happy that they won, that the game hasn't changed, that it's being done in the states (even though we're not that good lol)

I'm just so happy. Today's been such a good day. I feel joy. I hope the rest of your day is filled with joy.
Mahalo & love to you
