california, here we come!!

life, as always, has been on a roll. stressful, joyful and a bundle of other emotions all balled into one. 

the days following our pregnancy surprise became very stressful as myka and i contemplated our fate and wondered how we would be able to support and raise a child the way we wanted to in the ever-so-high cost of living in hawaii. our dream to move to the mainland seemed further away than ever as we thought about juggling our marriage, two jobs and baby. 

well the stars fell in line for us, as two days after our baby surprise, myka received a call from a company in san clemente, california and set up an interview for thursday the 22nd. so we booked flights and got everything together. and in we flew for a long memorial day weekend. and after a very long thursday, myka got a job offer on friday morning for a graphic designer position!!!


we quickly began getting things together as we went out apartment hunting and found 
a very cute 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom apartment in laguna niguel!! and in the next three weeks we resigned from our jobs, packed and mailed all our belongings, shipped our car and truck, and booked flights for ourselves and our two little doggies. 

life is unbelievable and i can't believe the countless good blessings we have had over the past year. it's hard to believe that for the past eight months we've been trying and plotting so hard to move, and now within a few weeks we we have everything set up. god must have a great plan in store for us and must have had some laughs at our persistence in having things now, now, now!

so, tonight, we're "leaving on a jet plane and don't know when we'll be back again!"

orange county, here we come!!!
