More California Trip

After enjoying a few days in Norco visiting family and friends, we went to Mission Viejo and hung out with my sister and her family.  It was so normal being back in Mission Viejo, didn't even feel like we left. The Friday we got there my sister, Cyndie,  threw a welcome back party for some friends and family  in MIssion viejo. It was so good to see friends again and catch up. 

 We were able to see Cole's piano recital and Vaughn's preschool graduation the weekend we were in MIssion Viejo.  They did awesome and im so proud of them.  

   After the weekend we drove up to Utah to witness the setting apart of Lei and Lori, to be Mission President and Wife of the Tongan mission.  What an amazing experience that was. They were set apart by Elder Dallin H. Oaks of the quorum of the twelve.  What an spiritual giant he is.  

We spent about a day with Sione's family before we headed back down to California.  While in Utah we were able to see my two brothers Kent and Eric and his family that live in Orem, and my friend Tawny. It was good to see family and friends there too... On this trip we were able to see all of my siblings but 1.  What a blessing that was for me and my family.   on the drive back to California, we stopped to see my Brother Brad and his family in St. George.  and Then my Brother Robert and his family in Victorville.  What a road trip that was. it was fast and long but so glad we did it. The girls had a blast. 

 Redlands Temple June 2013- First time back since we have been married. 7 years ago. It was so wonderful going to the temple again. We dont have a temple in Juneau.  Loved going with my parents.

 The adventures of Lice. (Above picture) Found out we had lice, we had to spend a few days of the trip taking care of it and constant maintenance after that.  NOT FUN!!
