We did it. Packed up and moved out by 10:00am, September 10th, said our goodbye's and were pulling out with our convoy around 10:30. This place was really the first place we would call a home rather then just a house and it will always be very dear to us. We came as two and left as four, blessings abound!
Saying goodbye was hard, but a moment that I didn't want to regret missing later. Hazel and I walked around the house to say goodbye. "Goodbye house, Goodbye windows, Goodbye Curtains, Goodbye bedrooms" Hazels little voice carried a bit of an echo as we walked around.
One last look and walk around the back yard while Jared buckled the girls in.
Dad Flokstra's truck with the moving trailer, Jared's truck with the camping trailer, and our van made up our convoy.
We made it safely to Chilliwack, our house to call and make a home in the background. It will be a process as we clean out and fix up the place before moving in. But so far we have settled well into the Flokstra's house as we tackle the house project together. Very thankful for all the help and support of family and friends through this big move and transition.
It was certainly a home and a huge time of growth for all of you. PG was certainly a blessing as you were a blessing to PG. To watch all of you grow and thrive over the years in PG made it easier for you to be so far away. God certainly did a lot of work through both of you in PG and PG has in return been a blessing to you. You do not leave that behind, it is now part of who you! So thankful that you have another character home to make your new home and that Jared can get back into farming. There is no question about it, farming is a big part of him. Looking forward to the next few chapters of living and growing and discovering the road He has laid out for you! Hugs as you process all of this, after the fact.
