The last few days have been an adventure. They have also been long, so long. We are tired - mentally, physically & spiritually. We need a break but there is just so much to do:
Eat
Look for a home
Look for a school
Eat more
Look for a job
Do Laundry
Meet people
Travel & explore
Keep the kids happy
Keep us happy
Find something the kids will enjoy
Find something we will enjoy
Eat again
Buy more food
Keep looking for a house and job
It's hard to get a break when you are together 24/7. We haven't done this since our Costa Rica trip! Even during the holidays we get a break from eachother (& everyone knows how stressful the holidays are right) Good thing we really really love each other.
And on we go.
We have found a school for the boys, and they are going to start full time this Thursday. (insert Sigh of relief!) Oscar's class is mostly girls and he's pretty excited abut that, It's a 1-2 split. Callym's class is mostly boys and is a 3-4 split. I hope they do well. It always worries me, but they always surprise me too! It's just so much change. Good friends (especially after being spoilt in Winnipeg) are needed by us all.
Speaking of change, we nearly bought a friend for Twinkle today.
The cutest black kitten with a greyish white body. He looked like an old man. If he were to join our family his name would be Milky Way, the boys are considering him as an early Xmas present... dunno what will happen.
We also are applying for an apartment! WhooHoo!!! The move in date isn't until Dec 1, but it will be so nice to have an address & a place for Christmas! (another sigh of relief) I'm still searching for a job, it looks ok ~ not super great, but not too horrible! Wish me luck!
Here's a funny photo Chris took of the boys...
a funny photo of Chris at Toys R Us,
a photo of a store in Victoria that almost says Callym,
And here's a cute photo of Oz in the Ocean with his bogs, Chris took it with his phone, but it's pretty sweet if you ask me!
Ok, now it's time for some serious rest! We're off to unload the POD into a storage unit on the Island tomorrow while the boys are at school. It will be nice to have some of our stuff finally! Talk with you all later! (pls call of skype) ~ also, if you're wondering, it snowed here a bit today :( but it was a nice surprise!

Hi Callym and Family!
Looks like you're still having loads of fun! I hear you're at school now - I hope you are enjoying meeting all the new kids in your classroom.
We miss here but are glad to hear you are having a blast!
Thanks for the postcard - it's on the white board at school where we can see it everyday.
Take Care,
