Happy to be a Mom!

I love this thought from President David O. McKay

"She, who can paint a masterpiece or write a book that will influence millions -- deserves the admiration and the plaudits of man. But she who rears a family of beautiful sons and daughters, whose influence will be felt through generations to come, long after paintings have faded, and books have been destroyed she deserves the highest honor that man can give, and the choicest blessings of God. In her high duty and service to humanity, she is co-partner with the Creator himself."

Devin and I went Cebu Philippines, to visit the Cebu Temple and take a little honeymoon for a few days before this new little girl is born. My sister Katie-Anne was wonderful and stayed and watched the kids for us. 
 We got to do a session Wednesday night and then found out Russle M Nelson was speaking at the Temple Stake Center that night. We got to hear him and then shake his hand, the Saturday night before we got to hear and shake Elder Dallin H Oaks hand when he spoke at a meeting in Singapore. 2 Apostles of the Lord in one week. pretty good. . . .
 Thursday we went to our honeymoon hotel "movenpick" which was great.
 My favorite was the complimentary mangos on the desk.


 Lovely pool
 Snorkeling excursion

 Hanging out on our private boat run by 3 philippinos, all who love to find out that Devin speaks Tagalog



Ready to go, the water was sooo warm. We saw so many tropical fish, it was really great. 



 We got to see Devin's Missionary Companion and his family Irwin and Annie, they have a little girl Dina and a brand new baby named Kylee, it worked out great to see them and Devin got to help bless the baby on Sunday

 Here is the private beach at the hotel. So great. I am 17 weeks pregnant showing a bit!
