Airports

Another crazy Christmas vacay but we did it! We saw all our grandchildren this year and almost all our children except for Gabriel and Danae. Our adventured started on December 12^th.

Think of all the plane tickets and time spent on airports and getting to and from one City to another. A little crazy but its all worth it just to see our babies and their babies which just melts our hearts.

This time we went to Utah first, then Daniel went to Nebraska and I went to Idaho.

I love Christmas traditions

I got ambitious and made 6 batches of cookies or 144 cookies for a cookie exchange. What was I thinking! I took half to them and the rest I put them in the freezer. The plate of cookies is what I exchanged mine for. But not only that, I also stayed all night wrapping my Christmas gifts for our Senior Missionaries and never went to bed.

Silvia's farewell

Today we had a farewell for Silva Pena who is moving back to Chile. The ladies who we minister to were invited. Mari did it in her home and I helped her. I gave her a towel with the Christmas message to remember us.

Concert series

Starting today, the Church is sponsoring cancer series with well known choirs so we were there to kick off this event. It was amazing!

In Cebu

The Mission Presidents Seminar is in Cebu this time. It was truly a treat to attend the temple and to listen to all the good council given to Mission Presidents and their wives. They are adding one more mission for next year.

Light the world and a giving machine

Today we went to Mega Mall to unveil the giving machine were people donate to different causes. We donated four times. Later in the evening was the temple lighting!

Thankful for our home

       "Where is home?" People asks me all the time and for me home is where Daniel is living and for now home is in the Philippines. For this beautiful apartment we call home I am very thankful. Come in, kick off your shoes and welcome home. Mi case es su case!
