Into the land of milk and honey?

So no pics yet but I figured I'd write a little something about our drive to CALIFORNIA! We arrived last night at about 9:15 PM after 10 long hours of driving through desert, desert and more desert. Thankfully all those years of driving through Wyoming to get back and forth from UT and CO has conditioned me for such boring drives! However, poor Matt was completely stir-crazy by the time we hit the CA border and we still had about 2 hours to go. For some crazy reason, all semi-truck traffic was diverted through the route we needed to go so that last hour took 2 and it was slow! I'll put up some pics later of what the salty desert west of salt lake looks like. Like salt! Never would've guessed huh? It's hard to drive and take pics at the same time so there aren't a whole lot, but some that I think all will enjoy! Driving through the CA mountains through Tahoe was really lovely; lots of places to hike and camp! While we drove through it was sunset which was amazing; a truly beautiful sight through the trees! From what we could see in the darkness, Yuba is really small. We were prepared for small town but it's almost smaller than we thought. That was just the initial look though; I'm headed out today for some exploration while Matt gets to go to work! Tomorrow is the beginning of house hunting with our realtor Shelia; I'm very excited to meet her and see what's in store! We are so excited to see what God has for us here! We know He brought us here for a purpose and we're ready to see what happens! Hopefully we'll get lots of visitors from home and school soon! Once we find a place to live, we hope to get settled quickly then have a BBQ for the neighbors, coworkers, and anyone else who wants to come visit and/or get to know us! Ok, I'm going out to see our new home! Pics will be posted soon!
