California Here We Come!





We have been seriously blessed this year. I don't know how we choose Chapman but it's an amazing school and Dan is having the time of his life as a 1L. When we first arrived we were living out of Marriott's till we found a place. Dan's friend Mason and darling wife Amanda put us up for a week too! Mason got Dan into skim boarding so we spend many nights at the Wedge in the water, I usually just watch. The rent was a shock but we had to no longer expect Utah prices and take the plunge. It took us awhile to find a place where we wanted to live. We rented weekly from an older lady named Deke in the historic town of Orange where Dan goes to school. We literally knocked on her door and asked if we could live there. That is correct, we were desperately asking strangers to live with them. So sad. After about another month we finally found a charming "little" back unit in the flower streets of Corona Del Mar. We LOVE it! Dan and I go on walks after dinner to the beach, run though Crystal Cove, surf a variety of breaks, Dinners in Laguna, the list goes on and on. I never knew this part of California existed. I received my California Real Estate licence and am still working with Marriott in vacation sales.
