Our avdenture begins!

We arrived just over a week ago to our new home at Frontier Lodge. I have decided that only crazy people move at Christmas! Chrsitmas day we had our birthday party for Jesus with the kids and then began packing the last of our things into boxes. Boxing day was taken a little more literal, no shopping for us! We packed boxes into a trailer that had been lent to us for the move, what a blessing :) and everything but the last minute things were packed. We woke up the next morning we hade breakfast, Troy and his dad packed the rest of our things into the trailer, Durango, Jeep...really anywhere it would fit and beagan our adventure. It was a chilly -25 that day which was better than a snow storm but not the most fun weather to move in. When we arrived at Frontier Lodge most of the staff had gone home for the holidays, thankfully there was one guy and his family there because the water lines froze and they were working hard at trying to get it going again. We had no water for 2 days, a bit of a challenge but we managed. The kids love it here. Any time the front door is not closed right Liam seems to know and makes a break for it, bear feet in the snow does not stop him, he made it almost to the parking lot which is about 100ft away! After a day of unpacking boxes, bringing in new ones from outside, chasing Liam to bring him back inside we made a trip to Rocky Mountian House in search of child safty knobs for the front door. We are settling into life here, Joelle loves the mountians and Liam loves to walk everywhere outside and find pinecones. Troy begins his new Job on Monday and most of the staff will be here so we can settle into what camp life is usually like here at Frontier.
