It's been a very interesting week: protests at the temple, illness, a field trip, and now wildfires which have cut us off from Los Angeles. (I covered the largest protest in my previous post, so I will not include that in this post.)
Our family has been fighting colds. Everyone has been affected, but thankfully, they've been short in duration.
AJ's class went to Canyon High School to see their Theater Class' production of Cinderella. I chaperoned, and AJ really liked having me with him. It is so nice to receive that kind of love from your child, especially when you have teenagers and don't feel that so often. Here are a couple of pictures.
Last night John and I went to the Los Angeles Temple. I have never seen so many people in the temple, since we lived in Utah. There must have been at least 200 people in the session. It has been a tough week with the protests, and it was so wonderful to feel the unity of the church members at the temple.
On our way home as we entered the San Fernando Valley (on the 405 freeway), we saw a very large wildfire in Sylmar.
As of this morning, the fire has grown and the major north-south artery in California (the 5 freeway) is closed. Homes are burning. The news stations are estimating 100's of homes have burned.
We cannot go south to Los Angeles unless we go the long way around, but are safe. Please keep the firefighters and those affected by the fires in your prayers.
