We are Here!

I coundn't resist. I had to take this picture while passing the border
This was an awesome Arizona sunset.
Me being terribly bored on the drive taking ramdom pictures of myself.
While driving through Ohio, we stopped to see the Kirtland, Ohio Temple.
It was beautiful.

Hannah and Austin had this really cute community sprinkler park to cool
off during their hot summer days in Texas. Here they are putting it to good use.
I want one of these to play in too.

Things have been so crazy here for us. We have been in California a week now and haven't had time to post much, so I am getting to it now I guess. I started work again as a massage therapist at La Costa and it's great to be back, but just slow for now it should get busy as the summer goes on. Gerret got the job with the D.E.A and will be leaving within the next two weeks to Indianapolis, we are excited to see where the opportunity will take us and for the cool experience that Gerret will get to have.
We arrived in California on Monday, June 2nd, after our long drive across country. We were so excited to see the sign "Welcome to California" when we crossed the border. We are just so happy to be back and thawing out from the Ithaca winter. We drove from Ithaca, New York to Dallas, Texas and stayed with my parents for a few nights and then continued on to Scottsdale, Arizona where we picked up the moving truck from Todd and Abby Runyan. While there, we got to see Carlyn Swensen and Matt Coates (her fiance). It was a long drive, but went by fast and we are happy we made it safely. I will admit, it was a boring, flat drive 'till we got to the west coast. I forgot how many hills and elevation climbs there are while driving through the desert.
When we stopped in Texas we got to see my brother Eric and his family along with Gerret's brother Kurt and his family. We had a great time visiting with them. Our nieces and nephews were so excited to see Uncle Gerret and to hang all over him and play dress up with him. Gerret is such a good sport. He is gonna be such a great dad when the time comes.
