A Little Update

So we heard from Trevor last night and he his having a little bit of a rough time so everyone pray really hard for him! He loves the chicken curry but not so much the seafood. He hates sardines and stuff like that:)

Maranda & Adam were just called as Primary Teachers for the 10 year olds in their new ward. They are learning patience and will hopefully grow to the love the calling and grow closer to the Savior through it was well. They have a little down syndrome boy named Taylor who is a sweetheart but, definitely a handful so we'll see how everything goes:)

Mom is still working at Robert's and is getting ready for Christmas already. They are having her carry and lift heavy things and if they keep it up Maranda is going to go over there and kick some bums:) no seriously though, it really isn't good. Other than that she loves her job. Her and Snicker's are the best of buddies!

Dad is working hard as usual at Novell. He is enjoying the BYU Football Season almost as much as Adam is:). He works really hard in his church calling as well. We are all missing our missionary but we are so proud of him!

So that is it for the Mauzy update...hope you enjoyed it!:)

Elder Mauzy's Favorite Quote

Love
---------------------------------------------------

"When Jesus gave His disciples a new commandment to 'love one
another; as I have loved you,' (John 13:34), He gave to them the grand
key to happiness in this life and glory in the next.

"Love is the
greatest of all the commandments--all others hang upon it. It is
our focus as followers of the living Christ. It is the one trait that, if
developed, will most improve our lives."

-Joseph B. Wirthlin

NY! NY!

We all just got back from our wonderful vacation to The Big Apple! We went to a beautiful park, shopping, touring the city, and spending time with family. We were all in need of a vacation and this hit the spot. We saw the broadway play 'Wicked' it was incredible!! We took lots of pictures to document the wonderful time that we had!
This is Adam and I at Minnewaska Park being silly.
This is the family on a very small, and unstable dock going into the Hudson. You don't want to fall in because the Hudson River is nasty!As you can tell we had a lot of fun shopping...well at least us girls did;)

Elder Mauzy and The Monkey


Well, we got to hear from our missionary again this week. It was a short email to our dismay but, we won't complaign short is better than nothing! He is getting a new companion and a transfer. He is a little nervous but we all know he will do so well. Last Saturday he had two baptisms, he really had a wonderful, spiritual experience. He sent us a picture of him holding a monkey:). He looks like he has lost some weight as well.

Bragging Rights:)

I just wanted to make a post and let everyone know how blessed I am to have such a wonderful family. If my parent's hadn't made the sacrifice in adopting my life would have been much different. I am so grateful for my parent's who have raised my brother and I in the gospel. What a wonderful blessing that has been. My parents are so supportive and loving to everyone that has come into their lives. My dad is one of the hardest workers I know and he does it selflessly, completely for others. My mom is the most loving and sincere person I have ever met. She is always open to making friends and doing fun things with her family. I am also so blessed to have my brother Trevor. I could not ask for a better sibling and example in my life!! He is sacrificing so much to go and spread the gospel to the people of the Philippines and that takes courage! He has always been there to talk to and help me get through tough times in my life. He is so sincere and genuine. Last but, not least I am so grateful for my wonderful husband Adam! I could not ask for a better soul mate!! He is so patient with me and loves me no matter what!! I am so blessed!!
