Should I stay or should I go???

I called my mother in NZ to check how everyone was after the earth quake, she said some people felt it in Christchurch but didn't seem to be bothered about it. They didn't even know it was big enough to get on the American news stations....lol. I talked to her about how much we where missing home. She told me her and dad would love to have Travis and I living back in NZ. I told her I was worried about the cost to move back and she went on to say that she and dad have been getting ready for us to come home for some time now. She said "we have been collecting toys and clothes for the kids and even have a spare mini van waiting for you when you come" she said " the apartment down stairs is empty and furnished too! all you need to do is bring yourselves and everything will be provided for you"

The truth is for quite some time now Travis and i have been thinking a lot about moving back to my home country of NZ. I love NZ with all of my heart and had a wonderful childhood there growing up with my large family of 12. I miss them all so much, they are all so supportive and helpful I know that if we where to make the move anything we would need would be taken care of.

The move will be expensive though! We have to pay for flights, Immigration, Passports, Citizenship for my kids, shipping furniture and buying new appliances not to mention homes in Auckland aren't cheap. I don't know what to do? I know this is what the family wants but I am worried about leaving the family and friends and home we have here.

Oh and the beaches! ... Oh how I miss the Beach!!!
