Spring Break

Joshua and I are having a wonderful spring break this week. We started off with a trip to my uncle's farm in Porterville (Central California). We met up with some cousins on my mom's side of the family and enjoyed the France cousins that visited as well. But Joshua's favorite friend at The Ranch was Joe, the donkey or mule (I don't remember the difference). He spent a lot of time hanging out with Joe. Joshua was so sad that Joe was all by himself in his pen. Joshua also enjoyed the four dogs -- Max, Lady, Lucky and Ruby and the one remaining cat -- Fred.

On Tuesday Joshua and I drove up into the mountains and just above 5,000 feet elevation, we got to snow. We drove up to 6,000 feet and found enough to make snow balls and get totally drenched and cold. But it was great fun to be playing in the snow in California on April 11. We are truly sorry for those of you in Northern California being deluged by the ongoing rain and snow. But we enjoyed the benefits of a late snow fall at Alpine Village.

We will finish off the week with a trip to Legoland, Easter egg hunts, holy week worship services at our church and lunch with family in San Marcos on Sunday. Hope you all can spend time in worship as we celebrate this most holy of weeks.
