Hollywood and Amoeba

A great day of hiking and shopping. We hiked to above the sign and then back to below it to take pictures. It was a good hike, enough to get you tired but not too sore. Great view of the sign too! Then to In N Out for lunch and then AMOEBA!!! Wow what a huge store. You can get disoriented in there. Luckily I had a list so I didn't get too sidetracked. I am very pleased to get some new music. What a great day!

Reformation Day

Halloween at Providence was fun. We have a Reformation Festival for the faculty's kids and their friends. I ran the three legged race with another student. The kids had a lot of fun and there were plenty of cookies and candy :) After the games we watched Monsters Inc. Then we had a poetry/ scary story reading with just the students.

Tarantula

The huge one we saw on parents weekend.

Family weekend! We had a blast! They came in very late Thursday night, and came again on Friday. They sat in on classes and enjoyed a planned night of the newlywed game and then I stayed overnight in the hotel with them. We went swimming :). The next day we did some shopping in LA, saw the Chinese Theatre and the stars in Hollywood and went to the foggy beach. Sunday they came to First Chino with me evening and morning and we hiked up Mount Baldy imbetween. It was so much fun to see them again. Love you all :) <3

Beach!!!

Simply beautiful! An evening swimming, roasting hot dogs, playing volleyball, watching the sun set, eating smores and singing songs of praise to our creator around the campfire. Priceless.

Softball

We may not win, but we have fun.

Enough said :)

Living the Dream

Probably the best weekend yet! (Sans John Williams :) We went waterskiing in one of the RD's family's boat. It was so great cutting through the water on a sunny day, surrounded by mountains, the wind in my hair! It was like something out of a movie. I am pleased to report that I got up first try :). Although I never stayed up too terribly long, I did also manage to go no handed - it was so fun!!! In N' Out after.
