All settled In

Well everyone,

Long time no updates but we are all settled in our new Orange County Home. I miss lots of wonderful friends and I am attempting to downsize before I ever have to move again. Still some boxes to unpack but nothing of real importance so it may get thrown out. We found out that his place is actually bigger than the house in Corona and we were surprised.

Life goes on though. Allie & Teresa are visiting their grandparents in Utah. Matt & Alicia are not quite ready for that adventure. We have visitied the library many times for storytime and we have visited many playlands to see which ones are the best.

Matt is teaching himself to swim and is actually doing really well. He loves his goggles and swims like a fish. I try to go to the pool often so he can practice. He knows his limitations though and doesn't go any deeper than he is comfortable.

Alicia likes to play in the water and mostly likes to ride on my back in the pool.

I started working on the Savior of the World costumes. It is going to be a great play I am so excited that I get to learn and be a part of telling the story of Christ's birth and ressurection. It is going to be such a spiritually growing experience.

Don't really have the awesome neighbors here that we had in Corona and boy do we miss you guys. The next door neighbors are interesting and Matt has made friends with the little boy Preston who is 6. Other than that we have met a few neighbors but no one talks to anyone else on the street probably because you never know who speaks engish and who doesn't. The Duplex hooked to ours is up for rent so Iwould love to find someone cool to rent it that I could hang out with.

The new airport is interesting and I have made some cool friends there. I am grateful for the new expeiences and growth potential that they have there.

Overall I am enjoying the transition but I am kinda lonely sometimes so I am looking for park playgroups or a MOPS group to join in the fall when the kids go back to school. I figure though it is good because I have lots of projects to do and I am back working out daily to continue on my weightloss journey.

I am eagerly looking forward to my trip to Italy. I am going to get the ball rolling on the passport and start planning when I am going to go. Maybe during Spring Break for the kids.

Oh well that is all my ramblings for now. I will try to not let so much time pass in between entries in the future.

Love ya lots,
Rebecca
