California is great. It's lovely and cool; a nice change from the unseasonably stupid-warm temps back in OK right now.
I've bought two pairs of shoes and a purse already.
The trip out was uneventful except that we had to rush to make our connection in Phoenix. But we made it and everything else was easy.
I lucked into a super-cool rental car. Check it out. (The one I'm driving is silver.) I guess they were all out of the Intermediate car I had reserved. A perk of not picking the car up until later in the day.
Kids are doing well. JZ is, surprisingly, not giving us any trouble his first time sleeping in a "big boy bed."
I'm doing well. The crazy pills are doing their job. I'm enjoying just relaxing and being in the moment of being here.
I will update more later but now I'm off to enjoy some Thrifty ice cream (rainbow sherbet and Chocolate Malted Crunch) and watch a movie with my mom.
It doesn't get much better than this.

Let me know how you like the HHR (in detail!) Justin keeps trying to get me to trade the van in for one. *nervously looking around*

Mary: glad you're having a good time. As everyone knows, food, followed closely by peace of mind, is the most important component of any trip or travel. Food you love and as much of it as you can shovel in. That's always been my motto. I thought of you last night when I made some popcorn in the skillet on the stove-top burner, while simultaneously melting a small pat of butter in a saucepan for my bowl of buttered popcorn. YUM! YUM! As I happily consumed my delicious bowl of lightly salted, lightly buttered popcorn, I said to myself, "This bowl is for you, Mary", not particularly caring whether or not you like buttered popcorn.
Have fun!
