Day 2

Woke up... not even too late. Only about 8:30. Went to our old church where we saw lots of friends. That was really nice. Then we cruised by our old house. It looked really strange. They had put up new pieces of trim on the outside of the house, but haven't painted them yet. When D and the boys were down in May, they saw the unpainted trim as well... so don't know if this is some sort of fashion statement. Whatever. They also have their Christmas lights up. Strange. Heard they have roosters too. Just the kind of neighbors you want, huh?

Anyways, then we stopped by our friend, Mia's house, but she wasn't there so we got to see her mom, dad and baby brother. Stopped by grandma Paula's house, and convinced her to feed us tonight. Then we drove to Burbank and surprised Chad's friend, Liam, and Luke's friend, Elizabeth. They were all (parent's included) very happy to see us. Totally made us feel loved!

Also saw one of the 7-11's that's been temporarily trasformed into a Kwik-E-Mart as a promotion for the new Simpsons movie. Very cool. Bart and his friend are sitting on the roof, Marge and some others are painted on the front and sides of the building. It was really neat. There was even a line going around the building to get in. Apparently they are selling Simpson-related treats, like Krusty-O's, and people are willing to wait in line to get them. That will have to wait til D gets here... not the kind of line I want to stand in!
