from Portage to Princeton

So Kevin and I spent last week in Portage, and my bestest best friend Susie Marie Hiebert had a baby girl!! Born 7:15 am on Thursday, September 7th, her name is Taylor Jade. We just missed her, as we were off to the Winnipeg Airport while Vince, Susie & Taylor were in a Brandon hospital. These pictures of a very pregnant Susie were taken on Sunday, Sept 3rd - the day after her due date. The other beauty to my left is Linda Enns, she will be getting married to Steve Wiebe at the end of October and though I am very excited to be going to Germany, I am also brokenhearted for having to miss her Wedding (and still praying for a miracle to get there).














We spent one great night in Calgary saying good-bye to some of our dearest friends, they prayed over us, annointing us with oil, and overall made us feel very loved. Then we spent a couple of days in Kelowna where we enjoyed time with Jay, Rachel and baby Levi Erickson. We are now in Princeton, BC with Mom & Dad Erickson and as expected, our days here are filled with quading and John Wayne movies. The next time we post anything, I'm sure it will be from the land of the German.

Moving

Well we've moved! And let me tell you it is not as much fun as it sounds, because we still have to move again. We are now in Portage la Prairie, MB. visiting Mindy's family and friends. We moved out of our apartment at the end of August and then slept at friends places for awhile.
Moving out is something I do not enjoy, it's one thing to move out and go to another apartment or house it is another to have to seperate everything into pile that are going to Germany and going to Grande Prairie (brother) and going to Princeton (parents). This was not a fun task but it is done and we are glad. We are now relaxing and enjoying the next couple weeks before we leave on the 14th. We are here in portage until the 7th and then we fly to Calgary and drive to BC. Lots of traveling for us in the near future.
