Probably most everyone heard about the earthquake that hit the Los Angeles area this week. It was measured at around 5.6 and that is considered a moderate size. Both Jackie and I were at work, the ground felt like it was rolling and it moved for quite some time, at least that is what it felt like. It was the first one we have felt in the over two years of living here. It was actually pretty scary, more of the thought that a big earthquake could hit and what if we aren't prepared.
On Saturday we went to Jackie's cousin Kallen's son Carson's baptism out in the Glendora/La Verne area. It is always fun to go to a baptism and feel of the spirit. It was also neat because Kallen has a new baby and they were able to do the baby blessing afterwards with all the family there. There was a nice luncheon afterwards and we had a great time talking. After the luncheon we went to "Aunt" Arlene's house to visit. She had just got back from England and we were able to see all the stuff she brought back. We just sat and talked and before we knew it, we had been there for 4 hours. We headed back to Kallen's house and hung out there for another few hours. Jackie was able to watch the Osmond concert that they had recorded from the conference center the other week. It was fun to be with family and just spend a day relaxing.
Jackie and I playing Rock Band for the first time. It was a lot of fun. We weren't very good at it though. The drums were hard to play and the guitar took a little time to get used to. It was a lot harder than I had imagined it to be. We always hear of everyone playing Guitar Hero and it was fun to actually try it. It could be the next game we get for the Wii.
