Going to California

We're on our way to Murrieta, CA as Chris was given the opportunity to work on a larger, more challenging project for work and we felt like this was our next adventure in life. The boys seem pretty excited about being near the beach and theme parks. They are sad to leave behind so many friends, as are we. Arizona has been such a wonderful place to live aside from the hot summers. If you know anyone on their way to AZ who needs a house ours will be available for sale or rent. We are looking at moving at the end of December so the boys can finish the second quarter of school here. In the meantime Chris will be doing lots of traveling and we will be doing our best here at home. We hope we'll see lots more visitors. Feel free to stop by on your way to the beach or come and stay a while.

Here it is right above Temecula. It's a whole mile closer to Utah than our current home and an hour less on the road. Wow!

Andrew said he'll miss climbing the fence to Nate's yard (their friend next door) and going to Marley Park. Keaton said he'll also miss climbing the wall and our tree out front. He'll miss Arizona but is looking forward to being close to Disneyland.

From Google maps it looks like Disneyland is about 55 miles away, Legoland is about 44 miles away, and Sea World is about 65 miles away. We went house hunting last week and have talked to friends in the area and it seems like a nice place to live.

  2. No, no, no...you were supposed to come back to Utah!

    My parents lived in the area and I loved it! The weather is great and I love being so close to the ocean.

    Good luck!

  3. Hurray and get there your family is ready to come already! Have you really thought about this? You will definately be well visited. It is fun to look at the maps and see how close you are to all the many places we enjoy in California. If the gas prices will just hold out and the jobs continue we will be able to come have fun with you all this summer!! Love Mom and Dad
