Well I'm calling it! We have officially moved in. We don't yet have all the boxes unpacked, we still get our mail forwarded and I just got a Jury Summons from Victoria (which I cancelled! Yes!), but we are here permanently. In fact, I did my first grocery shop!
Here are some photos from our trip here and getting settled.

Goal 7: Symphony Splash 2011
This past weekend, in amongst wedding plans for my sisters wedding (in 2 days!!!) we went to Symphony Splash. Symphony Splash is this great free event that happens in Victoria, BC every year on the August Long Weekend.
The Victoria Symphony plays a free show, while set up on a barge. The traditional climatic end is the 1812 Overture complete with real canons and fireworks at the end. It's pretty spectacular. They often feature a local band in the afternoon before the symphony. This year it was the TimeBenders, who played popular music from the 50's right up to Lady Gaga. They were also pretty spectacular.
We had great seats on the Legislature Lawn and a bunch of friends and family around. It was a great afternoon, and a great way to end our time in Victoria. We will miss you!

Lots 'n' lots of Goals!!
Since my last update I have done a lot of Goals work! Here is what has been going on in the past two weeks.
Goal 17. Use Ticketmaster Tickets - completed!
While in Edmonton we went to Cirque du Soleil's DRALION. It was my very first Cirque experience and was spectacular. I was also happy because we have had these tickets for a long time and we finally got to use them. We had a great night out with my parents, sister and her fiancé.

Goal 45. Complete a 30 for 30 Remix
So this is an idea from the mind of Kendi Everyday. What I did was take 30 items of clothing (tops, pants, jackets, shoes) and create 30 different outfits. Every single one of these outfits were actually worn by me, except the last two. But I have worn them before.
The goal of this challenge is to demonstrate just how many different outfits you can make from your existing wardrobe and get your creative juices flowing. As a side benefit by seeing 30 pictures of just me in an outfit I have realized certain things about how I dress and the clothes I buy.
So here are all the outfits!
