We started our journey to our new home in Washington today. We left my parents house bright and early at 5 am. After a quick stop for some donuts we were on the freeway. We drove for 3 hours and then took our first break at a gas station in Lemoore. We were once almost stationed in Lemoore so it was fun to see where we might have lived. We topped off our gas and the hit the road for 4 more hours until we reached West Sacramento.
In West Sac we stopped to visit Darrick's best Navy buddy and his family. His name is Matt Flint and they just welcomed their second child, a daughter, into the world 2 weeks ago. We have not seen them since October when they came to see us in Hawaii. We had a yummy lunch of pizza with them and before we knew it, it was time to leave.
We then backtracked an hour to our destination for the night, Ripon, California. This is where my Uncle Andy, Aunt Karen and cousins Jason and Brian live. They have never met Naomi and the last time the boys were at their house they were 3 and 1.
We have been having a wonderful time visiting and we had a delicious Mexican dinner prepared by my aunt. Naomi is already asleep but the boys don't want to stop playing with Brian. They have video games, a fort in the back yard and a pool table. Who knows when they are going to bed...
