Same ole Same ole

I feel like we're leading a very uneventful life out here in CA. We have been doing basically the same things we did in Starkville even though we have so much more opportunity to do otherwise. Pretty much every weekend, we've tried to go fly William's plane and when that didn't work out (either the fields were closed or an event was going on) we ended up taking Molly to the dog park and spending the rest of the day watching a movie or working on my business. So we decided that this weekend we would do something "California-y," so we're going up to Santa Barbara for the day tomorrow. I'm really excited because I've heard that it's just a really neat town with lots of little shops and a pier and stuff. We might take a train so we don't have to drive and which would add to the excitement, but we'll see. It's about an hour and a half away so a train would be pretty fun. We'll let you know how it goes.
I've just been working on my website some more and have been trying to figure out all of the business of creating a business. I think I'm doing alright so far, but we'll see when I actually start trying to get business! 
We are still enjoying our church and our Bible studies that we go to. We're getting to know the people better and feel more and more a part of the group every time we go. 
We have officially bought our plane tickets to come home for Christmas! I will be in Memphis December 11th through December 30th. William will come on the 20th and leave with me on the 30th. We are so excited to get to see everybody and hopefully we can see our Starkville friends too! Anyone up for a quick ride over to Memphis for a visit? I'm really glad that I get to spend a lot of time with friends and family. It will be a much needed vacation back home! I am very sad that Molly Bear won't be joining us for our trip though. Dogs are just way to expensive to fly if they don't fit under your seat in a certain sized crate. However, we think that some of our friends will be able to watch her for us and will love her for us while we're gone. I would say they will love her just the same, but that's highly unlikely considering who her mom is! (me, of course!) 
Anyway, that's all for now, we'll let you know about how Santa Barbara is and if it's cool, we'll take you there when you come visit! Ciao!
