Time to get serious about the BIG MOVE :)

We'll we're organising plane tickets well ahead of schedule for preps sake at least as we've still got to organise Bonnie (our dog) and get her all cleared to fly to NZ and paid for. 10 weeks to go and thats not really a long time and it'll fly by but we're enjoying the challenge of "We're moving countries!"  Sheesh, remembering we only decided to do this a couple of weeks ago! lol

I'll fill you in on the prequel because at the moment we're in the beginning stages of the sequel! That's one of the reasons we, including our sons are excited at the future as a 'family'.

3 months and counting.

Well, this is our first post with three months to go and my wife, sons and I are excited! So far we haven't booked our tickets (yet), we havent organised our pet dog Bonnie to fly (yet), and we haven't got the money to do it (yet)! So our first priority is to get the funds to do it and we have a few options that are available to us.

This Sunday, we're holding a garage sale where we have quite a few items up for sale that'll go towards our trip and set up when we get to NZ. The boys are excited about selling some of their stuff (toys etc) to make a profit and buy new stuff when they get there. Yes, thats right, their stuff, their profit :)

Me, I'm going to work as many hours as I can to fund the trip and days off will mostly be spent clocking up more hours in other industries and ventures with a 'what ever it takes' attitude. Here we go with short notice (actually none) and we know we can do it!
Faith is the substance of things hoped for. The evidence of things not seen yet.
