June 1- The Beginning of A New Adventure

Today, my family and I were able to start the process of moving into the Nipomo, CA area.  We are so excited that God has provided a house that suits our family's lifestyle.
When I look at the beautiful view of the mountains from our backyard, I am reminded about how awesome God is.  I love that I can go one way and see the breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean and then go the other way and see the marvelous views of the mountains.  Both have their own beauty and I am so thankful to be able to see them.

As you can see from the first picture, my family and I are going to have a pretty awesome view of the beautiful mountains from our back yard.  The majority of the year these mountains have a brown color to them because of the lack of rain.  Even though they are brown, they are still beautiful. For me, to be able to wake up to this view every morning is going to be a blessing to me.

The second picture is of my two girls, hanging like monkeys, from the bar that is at our house.  I have a feeling by the time we go to move from this house that that bar is going to be pretty worn out.  Kristy and Abby are so excited about being able to live here.  Keith and I are happy that they feel comfortable there.

We will be living on 3 acres which we will be sharing with our landlord who lives next door.  The house that we are renting is the home where our landlord grew up.  Hearing some of the stories that he has told us about growing up there has been pretty awesome!  Right next door to us is the family Christmas tree farm.  If you look behind Kristy and Abby you will see the lines of Christmas trees that are growing.  It is really awesome to see these trees grow and to know that someday that they will make a family very happy as they are being decorated for the Christmas season.

This is going to be a new adventure for us.  It is the first time that we will be living in the semi-country.  We are excited to start this new chapter and to see where God is going to lead our family from here.  I know that every time we step out our back door and see the mountains that we will be reminded what an AWESOME, MIGHTY, SPECTACULAR GOD WE SERVE!!!!
