Danica McKellar took a step away from Los Angeles, but not her career. The “Wonder Years” actress moved to Tennessee last year and says the change of scenery has been refreshing. She told Fox News Digitial, “Tennessee is a total quality of life improvement. It’s gorgeous; I love the seasons.”<\/p>\n

She continued, “I grew up in Southern California, and I love LA,\u00a0and I love California. But I have to say, the seasons are really something else. I love watching the leaves change colors, and I love it when it gets cold. And I love when it’s really hot and humid. Maybe it’s some sort of honeymoon period. I’ve been there about a year now, but I love all the seasons.”<\/p>\n

McKellar has also continued her faith journey, a newer addition to her life that coincided with her move to Tennessee. She said, “I would not say I’ve embraced religion so much as relationship. I’ve found my faith, and it’s been an amazing life changer. I have this sense that everything’s going to be fine in a way that I never really had before.” Her spiritual relationship also seems to have strengthened other relationships, including with her long-time friend, “Full House” star\u00a0Candace Cameron Bure.<\/p>\n

McKellar said, “I am so grateful to Candace Cameron Bure for bringing me into this era of my life. She really had a lot to do with it. Also, my dad, he’s been a believer for a long time. It’s just been a beautiful, beautiful gift, and it feels so good, and I want everyone to have that feeling.”\u00a0The actress is also continuing her work in film and television.<\/p>\n
