we have been debating about keeping the US section on our website. it seems most people dont check it so there really isnt much reason to use it... except when something happens to all of us and we want to talk about it on just one blog... so anyways, in case you havent read it yet... we are moving to vancouver  september 9th. we found a house that is just what we need... nothing too spectacular, just right! if you have read our previous entries in the past you remember us being resistant to the idea of living in vancouver, but after long discussions of pros and cons, we came to the conclusion it just makes more sense at this point in our lives. so we are excited to have more room and be close to dahlias little cousins lillian and jonas!
funny thing.... when we went to go meet with the landlord we were a little nervous thinking he might think we were trashy or something, because of our clunker car... dont get me wrong our car really is great but to the naked eye it may look otherwise(= it sounds really junky only because the engine isnt insulated like most cars, but the engine isnt about to fall out even though it may sound like it.... (i dont necessarily judge people by their car or clothes, but he might get the wrong impression and we didnt want that) anyways, so when we went to meet him at starbucks, we parked not so close to the front of the building, because we knew once he talked to us we would be in the clear... we just didnt want his first impression to be "ghetto renters"! which we are certainly not.... but the funny thing is about ghetto renters is that i am sure they dont see themselves that way(= anyways he liked us and gave us his firstborn child..... well just his house(=
