Countdown to Cali....



Not really sure the 3 year olds are on board with the whole “moving” gig yet… So we created this little chart!




Each day they get to *check * off a day until they go on the “AEROPLANE” (this is how they say it).  As “responsible” parents, the hubby and I are going out a week early to get the lay of the land and make sure all is good in The OC for our little ladies.  READ: 1 week break to set up, avoid a plane ride with twin 3 year olds, not have to figure out ways to entertain them while we await our furniture and have a little peace while making this transition!

Bless our sweet Nana for braving the duty!!! READ: more snuggle time for Nana!

XOXOXO

Step 6. Cry with your family and friends
Step 7. More agonizing
Step 8. Find a house in Cali...VIRTUALLY -- Sign lease June 18, 2012
Step 9. Thin out your 3.5 level home to fit into a 2 level home
Step 10. Packers come - Pack and Load June 25th & 26th


Step 11. Hug everyone a little tighter... make each moment count.... 

Somewhere between the agony, the crying and the packing we were fortunate enough to have some of our family and friends toast us with a lovely BBQ! Here we are pictured from the bbq... all smiles... lets hope these last!!




So here we go (I guess this should of been the intro) but we like to do things a little unconventional! 

Welcome to our Journey... Yes... this is truly a journey for us! We don't know how long we'll be in Cali, here in referred to as "THE OC", but you can keep up with our shenanigans right here!!!
