A Fun Week

We have had an exciting week! On Monday we came back from Oceanside to Santa Clarita. On the way, we had some time to spare, so we decided to drive through Hollywood. There really isn't much to see there, and we weren't overly impressed, but then again Hollywood isn't really our thing. We did go down Hollywood Boulevard and see the "walk of fame" with the stars in the sidewalk. We also saw the Chinese Theater where there are footprints in the sidewalk of some of the famous people. Of course we had to find John Wayne, and we also recognized a few more.

The famous Hollywood sign

Notice John Wayne's fist print on the left

Shirley Temple is one of my favorites - These are tiny handprints!



Then on Tuesday Uncle Larry and Aunt Rita took us to Disneyland! It was so much fun. We had a great time, and the boys loved it. I used to hear of people going to Disney for a week, and I thought they were crazy, but now I see how you could spend a week there. We didn't see even half of everything in one day. We were all worn out by the end of the day, but we had a blast. We are going to get Uncle Larry's pictures off his camera too, so we may have a few more, but here are some for now!



Josiah and Jonathan both loved the Teacups



Judson loved Disney......

.....but not enough to miss his naps!


We are the crowd down front waving!

Josiah got a little shy, so only Jonathan got his picture with Goofy.
This is a favorite of mine!


Last night we went to church at Lancaster Baptist Church (where West Coast Baptist College is). We enjoyed seeing the campus. I forgot to take pictures, but it is a beautiful campus. We didn't know it, but it was graduation day there, so things were very busy. It is only about forty-five minutes from here in Santa Clarita. We also ran into a family from Pennsylvania that we have stayed with, so we had a good visit with them.

Another praise....We heard from a pastor at church we visited a few months ago, and they have voted to take us on for support! Praise the Lord!

God has been so good to us, and we are thankful for all the blessings He sends our way.

  1. How wonderful, Amanda! Thanks for posting the photos. It looks like a blast! Someday we are going to head to Lancaster for their leadership conference. We were planning to go this year, but things came up.:] When we do go, you'll have to give us the 411 on the sites!!
    Praise the Lord for the new church!!!
