Package is HERE!

This week we were all anxiously awaiting the arrival of a package from Elder Mauzy. There is a sweet family in our ward (The Doria's) who are from the Philippines. Sister Doria was visiting and she said she would pick up the package from the mission home and deliver it to us. We couldn't wait!! While she was in the Philippines she ran into Trevor at the temple. It amazes me how the Lord works and knows exactly what people need.

So when we knew she had return to the States we got overly excited .The doorbell or the phone rang and we were all in a frenzy:). Tuesday night came and doorbell rang...FINALLY:) his package had come!!.

He sent us some Philippino candy which included: cracker nuts (so yummy) and polverone; vanilla and chocolate flavored (by far my favorite!). A funny t-shirt and our FAVORITE gift was his memory stick from his camera. We bought him two so when one was full he could send it home, we'd save his pictures (while he filled up the other one) etc...

I am working on posting photos and videos of Trevor in the Philippines. This made our week! It was great to see how hard he is working and to see him smile.

Elder Update!!

Elder Mauzy is doing SO good in the Philippines. He finally got his package from Aunt Carol and Uncle Derek and he is loving it! Him and all of his roomies;) are enjoying the beef jerky and starbursts. I guess they don't have those over there. He is working hard and reaching a lot of people in need.

*Viva Las Vegas*


This past weekend we all went to Las Vegas to celebrate Maranda turning 21. It was fairly warm weather (better than Utah for sure!). We went to the wax museum at the Venetian hotel and walked the strip. It was so much fun!!Mom and Dad with Arnold Scwharzenager.
Dad with Muhammed Ali!

For Maranda's birthday dinner we went to the Rainforest Cafe. There is the HUGE dessert called "The Volcano". All four of us couldn't finish it!

It was a wonderful weekend!!

My Amazing Mom!!

Most people who know my mom know how amazingly talented she is. She works at Robert's craft and for Christmas time her and her co-worker were in charge of creating and decorating the trees. Here are some pictures of her work!
