Man! The last two weeks have been crazy! We are now living and somewhat settled into our new place in San Jose. Derek graduated May 28th, his parents came to visit for that week, the day after he graduated we loaded the trailer and then the very next day we drove for six days straight where we arrived in San Jose. We had a lot of fun having Kent and Debbie around for the week prior to our move and really appreciated all the extra help we received from them as far as Baeositting, helping us pack and loading the trailer. A big thanks to Kent and Debbie!!
Here are a couple of pictures from Derek’s graduation.
Braedon got to walk across the stage with dad as he received his diploma (he loved pointing out the tassle to everyone).
While we were waiting around after graduation and everyone was taking pictures and visiting Braedon kept trying to sneak into some of the pictures. I kept having to run and grab him so I figured I would take the opportunity of him wanting his picture taken to take a few.
Doesn’t he look so grown up?
He did very well sitting through graduation.
Two days later we said goodbye to Ithaca and started our journey towards the West Coast. We took our time and stopped in St. Louis to check out the arch, but couldn’t find a place to park our big trailer, so unfortunately we weren’t able to get out and play in the big park by the arch like we had hoped.
A couple days later we took some time to see the Grand Canyon, which was pretty cool.
Pictures don’t really do it justice. The views were amazing.
Here are a few more pictures from our long road trip.
Braedon was a champ during the drive!
When he did get cranky I would tell him to close his eyes and try to take a nap. This is him closing his eyes.
He is such a goof!
I have to say we absolutely love our house! It is exactly what we were hoping for! Also, now that we are done packing, moving, unpacking and for the most part settled, my posts should be back to normal. Braedon is starting to talk a ton so I’m sure there will be lots of funny stories in the future!

So jealous that you are already done unpacking. I am still not done cleaning the house. Come visit soon!
Congrats! Hope the settling in continues to go smoothly. Looking forward to hearing how life is back on the west coast!
