Move #1 done.

So we moved on May 7th, and would like to say a
BIG
HUGE
THANK YOU
to my brothers Michael and Mark for coming to help us move and also to my parents for letting us borrow the truck so the boys could take a load of our stuff back to Salmon Arm to store and to mom for sending dinner and dessert to feed us all the day we moved.
The move went smoothly and we are now settled into our rental. We only took the stuff with us to the rental that we will be using between now and our big move. We aren't going to go through the effort of hanging pictures here, so our walls look a little bare, but it is only going to be for 2 months.
Yesterday morning we went to the notary to do the official sign off on our house. It is kinda strange not to be living there anymore. Ian and I lived there for 7 years. I think what we miss the most is the area we lived, all the parks and everything so close by. We'll have that back once we get to KAUST though!
We don't have an official move date yet, but we are aiming for July 15th.
That is 2 months and 2 days from now!!!
There is a lot to be done between now and then, I started making a massive "to do list"!

And so this post isn't completely lacking in cuteness, here are a couple pictures and a video of Marin and Corban playing with playdoh for the last time at our old place.
They have been really enjoying it lately and can spend up to an hour playing together with it. Once they are done there is a massive mess, and Corban usually requires a clean set of clothes, but oh well.
I like how they interact with each other in this video, they are working on sharing and for the most part to a pretty good job.

hahaha, that's an awesome video. I just about fell on the floor laughing at Corban's face at the end there...thought maybe the pig was going to go flying towards Marin...but that's what brothers and sisters do once in a while I guess...

hope things are going well
love you guys

Glad the move went well! Moving is always bittersweet I find but really, once it's over, there is no looking back.

Playdoh is a big hit around here too! And also messy.

Super cute. Susannah mostly eats Playdoh - ugh.

You must be tired after a big move. The kids interact so well together. What a nice video to watch. You have beautiful, sweet children.
