It's the start of something new

Well after a wonderful three and half years in beautiful Hawaii we find ourselves in Monterey, Ca. Jeremy is back in school to learn another language. It's always an adjustment saying goodbye to friends, unpacking, starting a new  school and then trying to make new friends. I know patience is a huge part of this journey. One great thing about being close to home is being close to family again. My parents and older sister are only two hours away and Jeremy has family close as well.

This weekend we made a trip to Fairfield to celebrate Laundry's third birthday. Hes the cutest kid ever and Im so glad we could be here for his party. The other major event was bonvoyage of my sister Amy and her family. They are relocating to Utah.  Very emotional for them as well as everyone on both sides of the family. Not very many members of ither family move too  far away from one another. Lots of tears shed this night for sure. Heres some pictures from that night. California won't feel the same anymore...and Utah is lucky they are getting such a wonderful family.
