New Blog

Here is the URL to our new family blog with all the juicy details about our leaving the country!

Check it out!

So many of you have been asking for the details of our upcoming move to Kinshasa Congo. I promise I will be getting around to doing that post, I haven't forgotten!
Between finishing with Goodlife, packing and helping Evan renovate a basement we are 100% tapped for time.
We will be starting a brand new blog for this adventure so as soon as I get it up and running I will post the link here and the whole story will start to unfold!

Hope you will all stay posted!

Big Changes

I have decided to bring the Schellenberg family blog up to speed for one main reason. Evan and I are moving us and our kids across the Country and would love to keep friends and family updated with our lives.
On May 22nd we will be flying out of Calgary to start a new chapter in life, life in Kinshasa Congo!
Up you heard right, we are moving to Africa and not as missionaries!
Both Evan and I have found jobs and we have enrolled the kids in an American public school.

Please keep following us to see where this journey leads us, I will write a post in the next couples days to fill everyone in one how this process got started and how we are doing with getting ready.

Evan and Mel

A new beginning?

As I stumble back upon my blog I wonder if it is time to start back up, my last post of over a year ago.
So much has changed in the last year, so many good changes!

Hmmmmmmm, always something to think about!

Season

Well, I think this season is done in my life. Time to retire the Schellenberg family blog, yup you heard it right folks. It is not that I don't have anything to say I just don't have the time to sit down and write it. Between working mornings and 3 evenings a week plus Saturdays, taking care of the kiddos and the house blogging has become so low on my priority list that it is sad.

hopefully in the future I will start one again and actually keep it up to date a little better then this last one.

On a side note, life is definitely looking brighter and more promising. Evan and I had some really big struggles after he returned from San Fransisco but it made us deal with them head on and things are looking a lot better.

I will still be popping in our your blogs from time to time.

thanks everyone for the comments and support over the last three years.

much to say

I keep forming a post in my head but more stuff (exciting stuff) keeps popping up so I put the post on hold for the next couple days.

For now we are enjoying the last couple days of summer before Emmanuel starts grade one on Thursday. Man I feel like my kids are growing in leaps and bounds lately. I am excited for the changes in them but it slightly saddens me at the same time.
We have spent a couple more days at the water park with friends and have also hit the beach twice in the last week, we love the outdoors and sun in this house! :)

In my big update post I will have pictures from Micah's birthday and from our last couple days of summer.

Now off to meet a friend and school shopping this afternoon.
