Yep, We Made It!!!!

We arrived here in Rancho Cucamonga, CA yesterday afternoon around 1pm PST. What an incredibly LONG trip but we made it save and sound with God's protection the whole way. Most days were 8 - 9 hours of driving and we were grateful for the pools at the end of those days!!!

Thank you, thank you, thank you to all who were praying for us! It was truly a blessing knowing that we were being lifted up every mile of the way. :)

Now we wait for the 'PODS' to arrive (sometime tomorrow) and then we can get underway! :)

Kevin starts tomorrow morning at 8am and is looking forward to something new. He of course, is somewhat nervous walking into a new office and all but I know he will do very well.

Well, off to collect the laundry from the complex laudromat. Have a wonderful evening.

And We Are On Our Way!!! So Far...

Man alive!!! Life has gone crazy on us. Right now, breathing is first and foremost in our minds!! and yes, we are breathing!

As you all know, or you do NOW, we are moving to California!! And DRIVING across the USA!!

My 40th Birthday was spent getting all the last minute details taken care of before we left on Saturday, the 8th. We got a late start on Saturday but made it through to Hartford, Connecticut.

Here it is in pictures:


Yep! It all fit in our little truck! I mean, what we were taking with us that wasn't shipped! :) Yes Troy -- it ALL fit!

What EVERY vehicle needs!! A Starbucks coffee and a GPS!


This is what we came across this morning in Charlottesville, Virginia (where we stayed last night)...just NOT the same!! Nothing like the real thing! :)


Isn't this GREAT?!?! I love it!!! I was ready to ask him to share the 'wealth'!


We drove through all kinds of weather today but this is what greeted us as we drove into Nashville, Tennessee tonight.


If you look closely, you can see both rainbows. Pretty nice welcome.

And now off to bed! Everyone's asleep but me!! Now it's MY turn!!

Thank you for all your prayers and thoughts! We are definitely counting our blessings as we travel across this country. We are blessed beyond measure!
