I came across your blog because I was looking for mommy bloggers who lived in Murrieta CA. We are currently living in San Diego, but considering moving to Murrieta to help us become and live debt free... but I'm having a hard time even thinking about leaving San Diego. We've also lived in OC and it was hard to leave OC for us too. California is just so darn expensive! My heart ached for you when nobody helped you at the airport! Your post was an inspiration to me- so honest and real. Thank you! Wow, what a wonderful story. I came across your blog because I was looking for mommy bloggers who lived in Murrieta CA.

It was 2 years for me on June 16th. We came from Murrieta, CA. I lived in Southern California my WHOLE life and I probably miss the beach the most!!!Very different! This year I also finally feel like this is home. I do miss friends and family but our family visits us quite often and my mom does call every other day to talk to the kids. It was really hard to take her grandchildren so far away!!! We are in such a beautiful part of Texas and find new things to do all the time! I enjoy your frugal tips!!!
