Packing

After our farewell party, we have had a lot happen. Closing this chapter involves many procedures such as packing, packing and more packing!!! We have sold most of our furniture and our 4x4 SUV. We have packed only 6 boxes to ship. We have sorted through all of our belongings, and have managed to get rid of most of them!! Sea mail takes 35 days to ship to our destination, which means our boxes must go out this week!

The pile......


We are aware that less is more, and what really matters is that we are together as a family. The children sense many changes that lie ahead, and are a little unsure.
Riley does not quite understand, however Darian has figured out that she will fit in a suitcase, and so she can come on the plane! (as opposed to being being shipped) ..............

I had to laugh when I saw the pink shopping cart. I hope the girls are able to fill their trolley with lots of yoghurt tubs in Oman.

Funny how a big move forces you to take stock of what material possessions really matter and you discover that little does!
