Leaving the house

The house is empty and we are headed out. See ya Nevada Ct in 2 years.
Spending the night with the O'doms in Vancouver and fly out tomorrow.

Last night on Nevada Ct

We are packed up and ready to go. I think. Thank you Kelly and Grant
who did a ton of work while dad worked his last week

Last of the stuff to go

So the second round of movers showed up today and 4.5 hours later we

are down to an empty house with just the stuff we are taking in our

suitcases.

5 days and 17 hours until take off.

Cool look at Songdo

We are down to 8 days, 18 hours, and 10 minutes until our departure.  This is a pretty cool computer generated look at where we are headed.  youtube video

A little local adventure

This was on our list of places to go before we left. Good start to
Kelly's birthday.

Hugs and "See ya soon" to the Arnolds

The Arnolds are off to Singapore and we were very excited to see them
before they left. Only 13 days left before we head off.

Party at the Raccoon Lodge

"Bon Voyage" party today. Thanks to MO and LO for making the arrangements and RH and SH for the idea.  

And the party begins. Grant and his friends all having a good time at Raccoon Lodge

Fun things before we go

We attended an AWESOME concert last night featuring our very own "BroBoma" on the electric guitar playing with his band the "She Bears".  This was the finale to a week long Ultimate Band Experience camp hosted by our guitar teacher Matt Tate.  It was Rock'n!!!!

BroBoma jam'n with Caramel Thunder

Wrapping things up before we leave

15 more days to go.  This weekend is our Bon Voyage party at the Raccoon lodge on Sunday.  We can't wait to see all of our friends.  Speaking of our friends, the Arnolds leave for their adventure in Singapore on Monday. Not sure how we will be holding up with two days to go, but we will see.

Not only is this our cool iPhone count down timer but it is a picture of our new apartment building

More stuff

So after the stuff we needed shipped left it was time to clear out more.  And oh my there was still a ton.  It didn't help that I had to have shoulder surgery to fix a work related injury but we had tons of help and got almost everything boxed up in one day.  Then last weekend was a two day garage sale where we made a ton of dough and got rid of 90% of the stuff.

Whats been going on??

• Paper work.  Lots of it.  We have been filling out school registration forms for Grant (He will be attending third grade at Chadwick).  Visa applications, Medical forms.
• Rent the house-  Which we have done
• Ship our belongings.  It will take 5-6 weeks for our stuff to arrive.  So on June 27th the movers arrived.  After about 8 hours all our stuff was in the truck heading to the shipping yard.  Hope we see it again.

Why

Back in February Kelly and I attended an International Job Fair in San Francisco.  After three long days and five different interviews Kelly accepted a position teaching first grade at Chadwick International school.  The school is located in the International Business District of Songdo, which is a suburb of Incheon on the west coast of South Korea just south of Seoul.
