We're Alive!!

Hello! Despite what you may think, we are, in fact, alive. I have been crazy busy with the move to Corona, CA and on top of that, we don't have internet at home. So, while I am here at the library I will do a quick update of what has happened in the last couple of weeks:

First, in an effort to get our home ready for going on the market, we updated our bathroom. We redid the floor, put tile down, and put in a new sink and mirror.

...apparently the internet at the library takes FOREVER to upload a photo...so those may have to wait seeing as I am almost out of my alloted 1 hour time limit.

Before we left for CA we were able to attend the baby blessing of my nephew Jonathan. It was wonderful to be there, and to see the love that surrounds that little guy. We are sad to be away as he and Danny are destined to be best buds.

Since getting to CA, we have unpacked into our apartment which is actually a lot nicer than we expected. Danny's room is montrous. Danny and I spend a lot of time at the pool (which he loves with a passion), at the park down the street (he prefers the swings) and at the library. The weather is beautiful here, and so are all of the trees.

Kenneth is enjoying his job (or at least what his job will be once his computer is set up). His boss seems very nice, and we are anxious to see all the benefits we are told comes about with working for the federal government. Because it takes a whole 5 minutes for Kenneth to get home from work, we have plenty of time to do things in the evenings. The other day we checked out the rockclimbing and found both sport & trad climbing just about 10-15 minutes away. Better yet, the rock is at GROUND LEVEL!! That means no hiking to the spot, and a very level ground for Danny's pack-n-play. Apparently I haven't been climbing enough lately because my fingers blistered while climbing the granite wall. Kenneth laughed at me (and I think was slightly disgusted at my lack of callused hands).

This last Saturday we headed to the beach in San Clemente. We really like it there...it seems more like a local spot versus a touristy spot, and it is cheap to park there. The last time we were at the ocean Danny was not a fan, but this time he LOVEd it! Apparently the ocean warms up quite a bit in only a month. We spent several hours there and enjoyed the sun and ocean. Did I mention that I love living here?

Speaking of loving CA, we are absolutely loving the people here. Everyone here is SO nice! And I mean everyone - including the lady at the Taco Bell drive-thru, the man in the checkout stand at Stater's Bros (the grocery store), the people at church, the neighbors both downstairs and across the way, the numerous people we have met at the pool, and the nice father with his 3 year old daughter at the beach. Seriously, everyone is nice here! We are loving it out here, and feel so good about our situation right now. We are still hoping and praying that our home in Salt Lake will sell quickly and that we will be able to get into a home here soon. Although we love our neighbors, we are anxious to get back into our own place!

Here's hoping for pictures next time!
