Bye to the Philippines

Here we are, all the bags, strollers, carseats, and people. By the time we got to SFO we had gone through 11 points of security and were thrilled to be home.

Elder Jacobs came over to see Devin just before we left.

My darling friend Cora came over and helped me clean my house. Thanks so much

What we will miss: Amazing customer service, our dear friends especially the Cadizal family, friendly people, beautiful land, Mangos, Pineapple

What we are looking forward to: Hot Showers, Milk, Cheese,

Traveling . . . Still

We got home a few weeks ago and since then have been Road Warriors. We got to Sacramento July 25 and spent about 10 hours at Devin's Parents house to recoup and then drove 9 hours to Idaho and spent a week and a half with my family, then drove 9 hours back to Devin's parents house and are here now. We are headed back to Utah (another 10 hourse) Next Monday or Tuesday. We are looking forward to being back to our cute little house which will feel like a mansion to us. It is the same house that we lived in last time in Provo for those who are wondering.

Small Updates:

Marianne is about a week away from sitting up and cut her first tooth yesterday! She is Just about 6 months old! Thank goodness for Ibuprophen. She is darling and sweet and has the biggest smiles.

Spencer is running everywhere he goes and is adorable. He copies everything we say and uses it in his own way. This past week he told Devin to "keep your hands to yourself", and told Grandpa "No Teasing me Grandpa", and instead of saying "No" to a question he responds "Not Today". We love this little guy and all his energy.

Pictures will come Soon!
