Welcome to Sunny California!

We finally made it! We rolled into town Thursday afternoon with only one more incident to report. Mollie had her feet up on the dash of my car and managed to put a big spider-web crack in my windshield with her foot. It is honesty a "God-thing" that my beater car was able to get from Amarillo, TX to Dixon, CA without a hitch. That car has been the most dependable vehicle I've ever owned. She's not much to look at, but she can go from point A to point B every time!

Living Hope Church has just been phenomenal in the way they've welcomed us and helped us so much. We love this church already! We really love our new home, too. It's fairly new and beautiful and has a great backyard. In fact, we have 5 small palm trees in our backyard. Now, to all you native Californians that may not be anything to write home about, but to a bunch of native MidWesterners that is super cool! There is one tiny little palm tree that has already become known as Isla's tree. Here's a couple of pics.

Welcome to California, Isla. We're so pleased to have you with us; your mom and dad and siblings, too.

Glad you guys have felt welcome.

Well the palm tree is nice, but it doesn't hold a candle to Isla. You do have by bedroom ready for a visit don't you.

That little tree better do some fast growing; by next year "little" Isla will be bigger than the tree. She looks like she's right at home and very content. Where's Mollie & Isaiah's tree's? Take care of all. Mom
