California Dreaming

The first weekend in February a hospital in Clovis, California offered to fly both Trent and I out for a job interview. He would be interviewing for the job at Clovis Community Hospital. My mom flew out to watch the three older kids so that we could do this. We were so thankful. Since we haven't ever done anything like this we opted to kind if turn it into a mini vacation. We flew into LAX and Cory and Dee drove up to hang with us for the weekend. As you can tell by the pictures we had a great time and ate some yummy food. We walked along Santa Monica and Muscle Beach/ Venice Beach boardwalk and saw done interesting people. They also took us to an amazing place called Botega Louis. They had the best pizza and some yummy macaroons!
On Sunday we made our road trip to Clovis and even stopped off in Porterville to see one of Trent's best friends.
While Trent was interviewing Monday I went and kidnapped my niece and nephew Tyden and Hadlee. We went to breakfast at McDonalds and then to the pet store to look at the animals. Then I took them to Target to pick out a surprise. Tuesday Trent had more interviews and I toured the town with a relocation specialist. Trent got an interview with another Children's Hospital here in town. The lady at the community hospital Taft would be his boss turned out to be kind of an odd duck. The Children's Hospital seemed like a better fit, but they had local candidates that made more sense:(.
Later that night we went and picked up Tyden and Hadlee for ice cream and some Chuck e Cheese fun. We had a great time and it was so sad to say goodbye.
Allie got sick on this trip and still was such a trooper. She was an angel on all our flights and slept the whole time. We sure were excited to see our other kids when we got home. Man we missed them. Thanks for all those who made this happen. It was such a good time.
