Fortuna California
We made it! The reason for my lack of blog updates, is that I have been too busy! We left Philly on December 24th. The hospital paid for a moving company to pack up all of our belongings and ship them to California! After 7 moves in the past 7 1/2 years- this was the way to go! We spent Christmas in Utah-loved seeing our families. I flew out with Casyn to California the 1st week of January while Brent was busy studying for boards. I spent a week alone staying with new friends and fixing up our interesting rental house (it was disgusting -so with the help of my new friend we did some MAJOR painting etc...) Brent and Aubrie arrived- our stuff was a week late (yuck). Then we unpacked and less than a week later-Brent's mom passed away. We had quite an adventures road trip in our new Honda Pilot (LOVE IT). The funeral went well and 4 days later we were back on the road in time for Brent to start his new job the next morning at 8 a.m.! Whew! It makes me tired just writing this! We are getting settled in (more stories to follow...) I just wanted to get a few pictures up of where we live!
This is main street.

Local playground-the whole city is surrounded by redwood trees. Truly amazing!

Decision
I was in the kitchen, Casyn was crying and I told Aubrie to go play with him. A few minutes later he was GIGGLING! She put all of his toys around him and was singing to him. SO PRECIOUS!

Trip to Vermont!
This is on the upper level of the Burlington Airport. New England rocking chairs to relax in and watch the planes!

Trip to California!
We first flew to San Francisco. From there we were waiting at the airport to fly to McKinley. We noticed our tickets said aisle 10 - so we were thinking -cool we will be at the front. Then they announced now boarding. Not zone 1 or 2 but ALL seats. This is a picture of the small plane. There were only 10 rows on the whole plane! Scary!
Brent has a friend living there- they took us to Trinidad (about an hour away) it was breathtaking.
Here is a picture of the cabin we stayed at. Complete with hottub, woodburning stove, full kitchen, greenhouse, 2 bedrooms etc... etc... it was beautiful! The entire thing had mint green tiles on the floor and long slanted wood ceilings. When we arrived there was a huge gift basket
on the kitchen table welcoming us to the Redwoods Hospital!
Little Casyn was such a GOOD baby. Here he is holding some United wings in his hand. This is the 2nd cross country trip he has taken and he is just shy of 5 months! Poor Aubrie had to stay home. We sure missed her!
