Hello California

Alot can happen in one week! On May 17th the Bundschuh Family said goodbye to our beloved apartment, aka the Gazebo, and headed off for California. After 19 hours with two children under the age of 6, one neurotic dog, and one very large Uhaul we successfully land in the Golden State only to find it cold and rainy. In my car there is no great story to report the kids where great and the dog was drugged so only Mommie got grumpy! But in the lovely Uhaul that Aaron was lucky enough to drive his air went out some where around El Paso so he had to drive though Arizona and California with the windows down. He was having so much fun! After arriving in California we unloaded the truck and unpacked boxes, and unpacked boxes, and unpacked boxes!! The kids love the new house and the three flights of stairs have proved to be a great novelty. We did end up going to the park and taking some scooter rides around the block a couple of times, but so far we haven't seen much of California. This weekend we finally where able to get out and about and our first stop was not Hollywood, not the beach, not the Sunset Strip but the famous IKEA, and boy did Aaron have fun again! :) On Monday we did finally make it to the beach and we had a great time!! The water was super cold and we figured we would just put our feet in and have a nice walk along the ocean. You would have thought giving birth to Aidan I would have known this scenario was NEVER going to work. We are driving to the beach and the whole time Aidan is talking about going swimming now mind you he is in jean shorts and a long sleeve T-shirt, but this does not deter him. We even tell him how cold it is going to be. I mean people are in the water with wet suits, but Aidan can not be talked down and with in 3 minutes he is completely submerged in the waves. Lauren mean while is quite content with just getting her feet in and even breaks into tears when her pants get wet. All in all we had a great day and in really made me feel like we are living in California.
