Movin' & Sellin'

Drew's sign for our multi-family garage sale

The last few weeks have been a blur. Our house is almost empty & we are spending our last night here tomorrow night. There is still so much to do before we move to our halfway house, but thanks to a fairly successful garage sale with the Rigbys & Taplins, we now have a few less things to haul across the ocean. Last Sunday afternoon the 3 brave dads took seven kids to Scandia while Jen, Brandwyn & I relaxed in the sun & made a few dollars.

Next week we are heading to the island for 6 days & we are really looking forward to our mini vacation. We'll be house-hunting for one day on the way out, but the rest of the time we are hoping to just relax (wha?) & explore the west side of the island while we stay in Tofino.

I'm sure there might be one or two new photos to post when we return. In the meantime here are a couple new ones of Mara. Her and I had a sleepover at Donna's in Kamloops this week. Poor girl was sporting a strange eye 'issue' while we were there. It came & went quickly but it looked pretty bad for 2 days. (Kai: "Mum, us kids got the goop"). She was still in good spirits & enjoyed Sydney & Kiley's hospitality - we just hope we managed to keep it away from the girls!

Nap time

First slice of cantaloupe! She had 3 in total.

Just in time to leave she started to feel (& look) more human. Poor girl!
