It started to rain when we drove through the middle of Arizona and into New Mexico
The heat was 107 driving through the first part of Arizona .
The heat was 107 driving through the first part of Arizona the rain dropped the temp to 77 and lasted all the way until we got to our hotel in New Mexico.
This was what the clouds looked liked before it started to rain.

On July 8, 2010 We embarked on our move to Texas. Zach had already been in Texas for 3 weeks. He stayed at his sister's Tiffany house(which is about 10 miles from our place) while he got the house ready for us to move in.
There are a lot of reasons we moved but mostly because we seen opportunity for ourselves. I am able to stay home full time with my boys! We were able to buy this house and it is not the Ritz or anything but it is something within our means and a place we can grow and learn from. I know I will always miss Cali and I will always miss and think of the people and places I love there.
Now that I am here I can't tell you how much people seem to care here, life is slower more graceful. It is a different world here and a different atmosphere all together. The town Bedias has a population of 432 and now 437 since we placed ourselves on the map(there is not even a local grocery store just a gas station, feed store and bank). The first day here my neighbor across the street brought over some Amish friendship bread, it was delicious! I thought to myself how sweet and nice of her and also that no one has ever done that(besides friends and ladies from church bringing me meals when I had Keynan).
Later on in that week our same neighbors from across the street came over to help mow our weeds, without the help from our neighbors and my sis and brother in law, our moving in and getting settled would of been a lot more stressful. I am grateful for all the generosity we have received. I also have met some great families here and have come to learn that having each others back is what a small town is all about.
