Victoria or bust






Well, we've made it!  The past few weeks have been incredibly hectic.  We packed our entire house, had a very successful garage sale, attended a conference in California (Joelle and Glenn) and moved all our possessions into a 12'x21'x16' storage locker.  Rob and his dad Mike did all the moving themselves, with the help of an incredible invention called the Shoulder Dolly.  It saved their backs and their sanity!  
We finally took the ferry across to Victoria on April 22nd at 5pm, getting us to our new, but temporary home at 7:30pm.  Bennett spent two hours riding his balance bike in the house and getting acquainted with all the nooks and crannies.  Joelle went to work the very next day.  It was a relief to find out that she hadn't lost too much of her skills in these four months of maternity leave.
We are really happy to be back in Victoria.  Bennett seems to be adjusting quite well so far.  Glenn has been a dream, taking the bottle for papa without a problem.  We are keeping our fingers crossed that Joelle will get the job here.  We'll keep you posted.
