We enjoyed our time at the Green House. It was a few doors down from LMU and so we'd go there often to run around and enjoy the view from the cliffs. We discovered a wonderful little Japanese crepe place and a delicious Mexican restaurant. The local Bristol Farms sold scrumptious warm homemade cookies and had good organic produce prices. You think you know a neighborhood but you really don't until you've lived there. Westchester, Ca. has somehow managed to hold on to a piece of small town in the middle of the big city.
Thank you to the Tuggy's for allowing us into your home.
We are on the last stop of our house hopping journey. Originally we planned to be at my parents till November, but now it's mid January. I am thankful to my parents for letting us invade their house for, what is now, 6 months.
Personally, I am tired. Tired of moving, living out of boxes, not having our own stuff, and own place. I am overwhelmed looking at the September schedule and somewhat anxious about starting a new school. But I was reminded today, am I actively pursuing a holy life? What is holy in all those thoughts? NOTHING. It is pure distraction to keep me from being holy. I have a chance to "experience a nearness to Christ that strengths my faith and fills me with peace. Whereas, then I become a cleansed temple of the Holy Spirit, who is able to do in and through me immeasurably more than I could ask or imagine." -Jesus Calling
And we had a wonderfully full summer. Just this last week we went to a citizenship ceremony, did a two dayer at Disneyland with Josh's side, and took the kids to a Dodger game. Josh's boss gave him an extra week off and so he was with us all week. I am grateful for these things.
