Family Vacation 2012 -- Mission Tour

We just returned home from a great family vacation:)  

We spent the first couple of days touring the areas where Judd served his mission. 

We had so much fun seeing where Judd lived, and served.  

We had the opportunity to shop where he shopped and eat where he ate.

The 99 cent store -- totally awesome!

We attended a ward where Judd served, visited the Newport Beach Temple, 

and spent some time with a wonderful family Judd taught while on his mission.

Judd baptised Carol on his 20th birthday,
 Jesse(son) was baptised a couple weeks after that

We were also able to do some things Judd was not able to do on his mission.

Judd served as a Zone Leader in Huntington Beach but never touched the sand.

It was so fun to get a closer look at Judd's life as a missionary. 

His missionary service has been a blessing for our entire family.
