California

We made it to California! After driving about 12 hours on Saturday we dropped off the boat and unloaded the U-Haul at Brian's parents house. We had a little bit of help but it wasn't much so we were tired after. Then we reloaded everything going to Grandpa's where we are staying and then unloaded it once we got there. We have been pretty tired lately with all the packing and unpacking. On Sunday we had church at 9 and then went to Reese's house for easter dinner and an indoor egg hunt.

Monday Brian called Penske to see if he would get that job and it did not work out because they needed someone who could work until the end of August but he is now working for Reese at the dental office sterilizing instruments during lunchtime and at the end of the day. He is getting about 10 hours a week at $18. So that should be alright for the summer. Brian is also looking for people who want their home videos on blu-ray or dvd, starting with Reese's videos. So if he gets a few people's videos to work on that would keep him busy.

I have been looking for a seamstress job doing fitting or something similar. There was a perfect one in Redondo Beach at a tuxedo shop but that is to far away. I also applied to Joanns yesterday so we will see how that goes. I called Disneyland about that job and they said it usually takes 4-6 weeks to process the applications. That is way too long, but maybe I get the Joanns job and then switch to Disneyland after a few months.

We are still setting up everything in our bedroom but we got some food yesterday and have been borrowing Leanne's semi broken car to drive back and forth. We keep forgetting things we need that are back at Brian's parents house.

Eric and Desi are the married couple living here at Grandpa's with us and they are really nice, we enjoy talking and hanging out in the evenings when they get back from work. Cherissa also lives here but we never see her.

We grabbed some lemons from a tree in the olson's neighbors yard that hangs over their fence. We got about 20 and they are huge, we made some lemonade and it was good. These lemons have quite a bit of juice in them, I think for a 2 quart we used like 6 lemons. There is also an avocado tree in grandpa's yard and from our bedroom on the 2nd story we can just reach out and pick them.

So we are having a lot of fun, there are nice parks nearby so we have been running and riding bikes in the morning.
