:: I must continue on ::

:: Well, this week has been a complete mix of packing, re-arranging, sorting, organizing, deciding, meetings, signing papers etc….it has been rather full and it’s only Tuesday!!!! ::

:: We are slowly but surely getting finished all of the details that go into a move. But since we are moving to my parents place for the time being it makes it even harder as we have to bring little “this ‘n that’s” to their place that normally we would just take to our new place and then set up life as we know it! However we are so blessed to be able to stay with Mom & Dad so we don’t have to be in the midst of all of the dust, paint and renovations that are happening ::

:: Anyway, I better go here I am supposed to be finishing up Paul’s tax return for the accountant (apparently I missed a few things when I submitted it to her!) ::

:: I will try and update sooner than later, but I don’t promise anything! ::

:: Here is a picture my brother sent to me from Easter Sunday ::

:: Family-Ville ::

On the impending arrival of our second child we had decided that our Nissan Sentra (also known as Sexy Sentra) was no longer going to accommodate our growing family – So, we put the Sentra up for sale and had a very serious buyer back in the early part of February, however the deal didn’t go through so we put it back in the buy&sell – with no worries, we still had plenty of time to sell.

Then one day our neighbours C & J stated that they were looking for a new car as they are expecting their first child and C will need their current car to drive into Burnaby with. With their interest they took it out for a spin and we came to an agreement on price and the Sentra is SOLD! So we had two weeks to find a vehicle (between packing, choosing carpets, paint, and designing a new kitchen – it was all a little overwhelming). However, yesterday Paul took me to see this beauty at Southgate Auto and we struck a deal and bam we’re in “Family-Ville”.

Here are the stats on our new van:
2002 FORD WINDSTAR SPORT(CAN), 88000kms, 5dr, Red, Automatic, FWD, 3.8L, Cylinder 6, Gas, Air Conditioning, Alarm, Alloy Wheels, AM/FM Stereo, Anti-Lock Brakes, Anti-Theft, Backup Sensor, Bucket Seats, Cassette, CD Changer, CD Player, Cruise Control, Dual Air Bag, Dual Climate Controls, Fog Lights, Heated Mirrors, Intermittent Wipers, Keyless Entry, Leather Interior, Power Brakes, Power Locks, Power Mirrors, Power Seat, Power Steering, Power Windows, Quad Seating, Rear Air & Heat, Rear Defroster, Roof Rack, Split Folding Rear Seats, Tilt Wheel, Tinted Glass, Tow Package, Traction Control, Local van no accidents, new BF Goodrich tires, in exc cond all around.

We have yet to pick up our new car as we are waiting to settle the money with C & J but we should have it by mid week. We are very excited because we got a great deal for a great van and truly feel that God set up the timing just perfectly (there was another couple that drove onto the lot seconds after us but we were there just in the nick of time and were thankful we didn’t stop to get a coffee on the way!).
