We made it!

After a whirlwind of activities.... we made it to California! The day after John's graduation, the movers came and boxed up all our belongings. I didn't have to pack a single box!!!! It was amazing!!! (Definitely a step up from our last move when I was packing boxes while 8 months pregnant.) We flew out the next day full of mixed feelings.... sad for leaving behind our friends and NYC which we have grown to love and which has helped us grow in so many ways, but excited for all that we have before us including 70 degrees year round, housing that is pest free (yes we have been cohabitating with mice, cockroaches, and little red spider things for the last few years) and calm drivers. The past 3 years I had come to believe that I disliked driving... but actually after being in Cali for a few days I realized I just dislike driving in Jersey:) Although, I admit sometimes I still get the urge to "Jersey Juke" people (turn left as soon as the light turns green before the oncoming cars). Hopefully that impatience will diminish over time :)
