We spent Friday relaxing and unwinding from their drive from Arizona, riding our motorcycles around the block, singing, playing and generally having a good time! Saturday we all headed over to the beach in Oceanside - some by car and van, and some on bikes via the bike trail! It was their first time to California and the Pacific Ocean, and we were all thankful for the beautiful sunny day and warm weather.

Below, a shot of the "kids" who walked the Oceanside Pier, where they encountered a few not-so-friendly pelicans, watched a surf competition, saw Catalina Island off in the distance and a seal playing in the water, and saw where Mitch and Amy's names are carved into the pier boards!
Mikki and his sandcastle partner, Hannah!
Hail, Hail, the gang's all here!
Sunday held two morning concerts (both services)at Calvary Chapel Oceanside! The family enjoyed a warm welcome by all of the folks there, and had given away about 800 CD's by the time they were done! A new record for them! And they also got standing ovations both services, which was very unusual. Bonnie's yodeling song was a big hit, too!Below, Carol and Vincent rehearse their piano duet before the services.
Keep checking back for the continuing saga and more pictures of their visit here, including Sunday evening concert with our family.

Thank you for hosting our "gang" and blessing our first time in beautiful California! You all do a great job singing together. Looking forward to more good music. Have you ever heard of the MacGreers? They did pretty good, too : ) Bye for now.
Oooh, thanks for blogging pictures and things :)
