More of John's visitors.........

Some pictures of our family after Jonathan and Sarah 's Wedding and Sealing.

To bad Jonathan and Sarah didn't want to join us :) We had fun eating at "Out Back" in Dublin, CA. We didn't have much time with them but the little time we had was a precious moment. So glad my sister joined us because we wound of not had much time together at the reception. Our little nieto (cholo)love's Grandpa!!! So glad that Darla and Jamie came all the way from Kentucky, we loved seeing them. Glad that Albert didn't have a hot date or maybe we would not of seen him. And of course we loved being with Delna and Vince and Asjia and Jalen but we missed Alyssa.

Our Hospital experiance in pictures below.........

Our welcome home from our good friends and neighbors in our unit. They were so supportive and Sister Christensen had a wonderful homemade soup for us when we arrived home. We are so grateful for the many blessings we felt as we went though this bump in the road. We are back and are ready to roll! (well almost)
Right outside our window is the view we had and where the helicopter took off and just had to have a picture of that. Oh and as you can see he had a pretty nurse to pat him on the back many times to get up flem in his lungs.

More pictures in the Hospital

John had such excellent care at the "Hospital Angeles Morcel". Doctor Rosas, and the Surgeons, Dr. Musan and Dr. Sanchez (which are pictured on the right, the other two are interns dressed in white) and Nurses were the best. The hospital was immaculate and they help us have a very comfortable stay all six days. John was in pain with his pancreas inflamed and gall bladder was fill with fragments of stones and the nurses were very attentive and loving towards us both. After four days of not eating his fever went down and they were able to operate, and he feels so much better. I told the surgeon Dr. Mussan that my daughter was quite worried about being operated in Mexico and he laughed and said "did she think I would be wearing a sombrero and use knife to operate." He really got a kick out of it and said yes but he understood being in a foreign land and being nervous. (By the way the Doctors all spoke English and were educated also in the U.S.} Dr. Brunt our Dr. and missionary from the U.S. make sure we got to the best hospital and the best surgeons, plus our Stake President (which is also a Doctor as neurologist)here in Mexico was very involved since he knows the surgeons well and takes care of us Missionary's.

This was our 4th of July on the 6th with other Senior Missionaries

We had such a great time with the English speaking missionaries. We had a watermelon seed spitting contest and sang patriotic songs and eat hot dogs and hamburgers. I only eat one meal that day but I'm sure it was three in one setting.
The picture of me and sister Roueche whom I love dearly and our good doctor Brunt and his wife Diane that has been such a help to us.

My Uncle Frank Huerta

I believe this is the last picture taken with my Uncle Frank. He passed away July 4, 2009. I have a lot of memories of him and my aunt Pauline with my Dad and Mom. We love him and will miss him but on the other hand we are happy that he is now reunited with his wife, mom and dad and brothers and sister.
I just found this other picture ( I guess I was excited and put the picture in twice and now I don't know how to get one off)in my church manual of me, my sister Virgie and brother Gabe with my Uncle Frank.... I believe it was for his wife Pauline memorial at our cousin Francine's home.

Las Mananitas

To me this was paradise, especially since when we were heading toward the restaurant "Las Mananitas" and it was a bumpy road and very tall walls of cement on both sides of the street {which is common in Mexico not to know whats on the other side)......then they open the gates to this beautiful hotel where we all had lunch. It was an awesome sight of flamingos and peacocks just walking around the beautiful grounds.
