Top ten moments moving into Clayton, Ca

So as you know we have moved to California. We are in a little town north of Oakland, which by the way is Northern Cali, north of San Fran in fact, (We are finding a lot of people think us close to LA, so that is just to clarify). We ended up in this little town with farmer's markets, and music in the park at the old historic pavilion every Saturday night. It is beautiful, and stemming the tides of sadness we feel in leaving behind so many good friends and neighbors in South Carolina. Here are our top ten moment's since moving into Clayton.

10--Tavy being quite distressed because, she wasn't able to help Kaleb lift the couch up because she hadn't eaten her veg-a-te-bulls.

9--Kaleb meeting a little boy his exact age across the little common area from us--who has a wii.

8--Tavy, with a rather malicious grin, blowing hot dog smells toward her Dad, who was trying to fast.

7--Sitting out side blowing bubbles while the breeze from the ocean keeps us cool.

6--Fruits and veggies from the farmer's market--fresh Squash and green bean stir fry over noodles--and cherries that still taste like the sun Yumm.

5--Kaleb fervently praying for us to find a house with a swimming pool and not a day later, Dad found the town house we are living in with a pool included.

4--The statue of kids in the park next to us has a little girl with a CTR ring on her finger that nobody but us Mormon's know about.

3--Kaleb being brave enough to pray beautifully in front of his new friend when we had his family over for a BBQ. Then Gabe, his friend asking as politely as possible if we had to pray when we went to Burger King--prayer in your heart buddy, prayer in your heart.

2--After three weeks we finally got rid of the ants all over the place--wahoo.

1--Uncle Davy and Aunt Suzy being able to come right over for Birthdays and Sunday dinner because they live so close.

I had no clue you moved to California, what a fun place to live. I can't imagine anything better than to live close to the ocean.
