Well....as my dad put it perfectly, "There is never a dull moment with you two!" And that is the case yet again because we just moved to San Diego for Bo's new job. Bo had been looking for a new job in the Ventura County area for a few months, but there were very limited opportunities. When this Training Specialist position with Intuitive Surgical opened up in San Diego or San Jose, we had to think about whether or not we would be willing to move because we loved Camarillo a lot! We both felt like God gave us peace about the potential for moving, if it meant that Bo could have a great opportunity doing a job that he would love. So....to make a very long story (Bo had to go through 9 interviews) short, God provided for us beyond what we could've asked for!
Below you will find a brief timeline to give you an idea of how quickly everything happened over the past month.
Mon, Dec 17th ................. Bo got offered the TS job in San Diego
Wed, Dec 19th ................. Bo gave his two weeks notice
Dec 22nd - Dec 27th ................. We flew to Minnesota for Christmas
Dec 28th ................. Drove to San Diego, toured 6 apartment complexes, test drove a car, spent the night in Irvine with Matt & Kimberly
Dec 29th ................. Drove BACK to San Diego, toured 4 more apartment complexes, test drove another car, bought a car, signed a lease, drove back to Camarillo
Dec 30th - Jan 1st ................. Went up to McFarland to celebrate New Years with the Bowmans
Jan 2nd ................. Bo started his new job with home study
Jan 6th - 11th ................. Bo flew to Dallas for a Sales Conference all week, while I packed up and cleaned our apartment
Jan 11th ................. Earl, Cindy, and Matt helped me with loading up the uhaul, and I picked up Bo from the airport
Jan 12th ................. Packed up our last few big pieces, said goodbye to Camarillo, drove down to our new place in San Diego, where we unloaded everything in a matter of a few hours with the help of 10 family members!!! It was amazing to have all their help!
Jan 13th ................. Unpacked EVERYTHING in one day with my mom and I!!!
Jan 13th - 18th ................. Spent time with my parents as we unpacked and toured around a bunch of areas in San Diego.
Now we are continuing to settle in and decorate, which is my favorite part! Once our new couch set arrives next week, then I will be able to finish putting up some wall decor. As soon as everything is hung, you can expect to see a new blog complete with pictures. While this transition may have been a whirlwind at times, God has provided as He always does, and our trust and patience have grown immensely because of it! We can't wait to see how our "new life" unfolds and what adventures lie ahead!
