Berlin, here we come!

Well we spoke to Jeff and it looks like we all agreed on a date!
Jeff was concerned that if we came any earlier he would not even be there to help us if needed. Katy was concerned if we go to late then we would not have time to settle in before Noah goes to school. Soooooooooo.....
We are planning (tentative) to arrive in Berlin around the first of April.
I am planning on leaving the month before for a week visit to find us a place to live. We are looking for a furnished apartment for the first couple of months. Then we will look for a more permanent place to rent that will be near Noah's school. That will give us some time to get used to living in Berlin. I was not looking forward to having to arrive and then go buy silverware and chairs and a bed and well, everything! So having a furnished place gives us some extra time.
So now we have to start packing, and selling and giving away everything that will not go in a suitcase. It will b nice going in April since the weather will not be as cold.
Noah is sad that there will be no snow when we arrive. He will have to wait a while for any snow fights. I'm a little bummed because tickets will cost more but we will have more time to save so it should balance out. I just wish the exchange rate was better. We know God will provide exactly what we need. He always has.
