well, i am officially a california resident!!! yep, i moved into an apartment in santa monica today. i will write more details later, of course, but i just wanted to let everyone know that mom and i have had a wonderful trip from indiana to la. we've done so many fun things along the way, and below are just a few pictures. please keep me in your prayers, as i get settled, look for a job, and say bye to mom this saturday! more later...


This is a picture of my car packed to the brim! We couldn't see out the back the whole trip!!

Me at the Grand Canyon. We hiked so much that day, there, and then later walking the strip in Las Vegas! Our legs were very tired.

Mom and me at the Grand Canyon. We stayed on the park grounds, and this is the North Rim at Bright Angel Point.

Me being silly at the Beatles LOVE show display. It's a Cirque de Soleil show in Vegas.

Ok, ignore Mom's face, lol, but here's my new living room!

Finally, for now, this is a weird angle of our front door. The apartment is a sectioned off bit of an old house. It's very quaint, and I can't wait till all our stuff is in it! And, we had the trash outside in the front, so I promise it isn't always this junky looking!

Stay tuned for more later, until then, thanks for your prayers, and stay in touch!
