Home...
We have driven many miles over the last several days. God has been good to us and given us a safe journey. We had a wonderful time in California with family and friends, but we are happy to be home for a few days. I have a lot to write about, but it has to wait for now. I just wanted to let everyone know that we have made it "safe and sound". If you breathed one tiny prayer for us, THANK YOU! In a few minutes I will lay down and go to sleep with thankfulness in my heart. There is nothing like being home in my own bed!

South Pasadena - Visit With Bernard, Sandy and Family - California Trip cont'
For those who are "happening by" tonight, this is a post about a trip we took to California in September. As I said in my last post, I am trying to catch up on some of the "happenings" I didn't blog about this year. I really would like to start 2010 without "the past" hanging over my head. :)
From Rialto we made our way over to South Pasadena to see Bernard and Sandy and the family. You cannot find any better people walking around in shoe leather than Bernard and Sandy. I know they are family, but I cannot say enough good about them. They are true-blue-loving God-loving people-solid as a rock-incredible Christians! I have never seen them waiver from their commitment to Truth and righteousness.
Wendell preached on Sunday and the services were electrified with the power of God.
Faithful...Bernard and Sandy have been at this church for 40 years!
Their daughter, Patti, is a sweetheart! She has stood by her parents side and given her support and love through the years. If you ask Bernard and Sandy, they will tell you she is very much involved in the ministry of the church. She sure loves her Uncle Wendell!
Here is Fernie and Patti with their "kids". My how time flies by!
We got to go over to their home for a cook-out. It was fun being around the niece and nephews. They are all such neat kids!
We went "bird watching" one evening. :) Bernard told me about parrots that fly around in their neighborhood so one evening he came home after his walk and said they were out. I tried to get some good pictures of them, but didn't do very good. They were too fast! I love birds and these were really pretty and LOUD!
The fun time in California had to come to an end and we headed home. There was a lot waiting to be done, and work was calling. I'm so glad we had this opportunity to spend with friends and family. Sometimes you just have to do the "important things", and loved ones are IMPORTANT!
Since I'm writing this at Christmas Time let me remind you that there is nothing more important than spending this time with family/friends. Savor the moments you have with them. Don't let the day go by without letting them know that you love them!
MERRY CHRISTMAS Y'ALL!
