A time of "firsts"

So we have been here going on three weeks now and have been enjoying it! The apartment is fantastic - We have a garage, 2 bed/baths & are on the first level. Amanda started her job which is about a 10 minute drive from our apartment. Her office is downtown - about a 4 block walk to the harbor!

We've had a lot of firsts here on the West Coast and we thought we would share them.

Recon's first time at the beach - not just the Pacific Ocean. He was scared of the moving water & would run across as it came towards him.















First Christmas away from home and our families.



Recon got a backpack & a bone!


But our first Christmas on the West Coast hosted by some great friends :)

Amanda's first birthday without her family. Thanks to Michelle, Tyler, Aunt Terri, Emily, & Petreys for the amazing surprises :)


And first time wine tasting in Temecula, CA.



Recon's first time actually swimming in the Ocean.


Our first off-roading trip in CA - Mojave Desert.




Thanks everyone! More updates to come :)
