It's packing time again... And no broken legs YET!

Can you believe that we've been in Cape Town for 6 months already! Pete, I am still astounded by your care and love 6 months ago when you flew from Cape Town to JHB to drive my car here because I was still on crutches! A tip of my hat to Pete - http://www.rockinthegrass.blogspot.com - at least this time I can drive myself!

When we moved here we decided to take a short 6 month lease on our rental property so that we had a bit of time to find the right place to buy. Megan is such a star! While I've bann traveling all over the place she's looked at over 70 homes (not to mention that she's started up a ver sucessful human resources consultancy, and looked after me and our kids!) A few months ago she found the perfect propert - a small 3 bedroom house just one block from Courtney's school! It was a little out of our 'conservative' price league, so we prayed about and put in our best offer!

The lady who was selling the property had already turned down higher offers, but we went ahead and offered what we could afford and she accepted our offer! So, we're packing! We move in 15 days (of which I shall be away for more than half...) so we're using every possible moment to pack.

At least this move is just a few blocks down the road (well, about 5km or so), and I am not on crutches this time!!! However, the pressure is ON! In the 6 weeks between now and a month or so after our move I shall be in England and Europe, Argentina, Chile and a few other places in Latin America, and then also do a trip to Kenya for a day of thanksgiving and prayer with the government of unity... These are all incredibly exciting opportunities, and Megie and Liam will be going to Latin America! We are so excited!!!!! But the move does a add a little pressure. We are taking leave in December, and we look forward to a bit of free time to settle down and find our feet before 2009 comes along! We'll spend most of our leave at home, with a bried time in Knysna over Christmas!, and some time seeing Megie's sister's new baby (to be born any day now!)

So, please spare a prayer for Megie, Courts, Liam and I please! This are exciting times, and we're more blessed than we could ever have imagined!
