California Girl

Matt and I got to go to the Calvary Chapel Youth Workers Conference for 5 days recently. We brought along Lizzie, while Ruthie stayed at Grandma's house. Chris and Marnee also came from our church. It was held at the Bible College in Murrieta. There are natural hot springs on the campus, a small lake and some water foul that call it home. It is a beautiful place and was fun to see. We were very blessed by all of the bible studies, and the Lord blessed us immensely.

Here is Lizzie eating the chips we were feeding to the ducks, geese and swans.

There was one black swan and one white swan, the white one was mean but the black one was kinda timid.

SUNSHINE,

PALM TREES,

AND A LITTLE GIRL!
I couldn't stop taking pictures!

Her new dress.

A big fountain at night.

Barefoot in January!

Thinking about diving in for a swim.

Playing at the fountain.

So, even though the snow is fun and I love it, our little jaunt down to California made me long for springtime. It won't be long. Spring wouldn't be so awesome if it wasn't winter first.

PS Here's Ruthie at Grandma's house she got an easel and painted a lot of pictures. She is quite the artist.
