Well lets see - I married in 1998 to an awesome guy and we now have two beautiful healthy children. We moved from Salt Lake to Buffalo, NY in 2001 and returned to SLC in 2003. In 2006 we moved to Baguio, Philippines where we are currently living. It was suppose to be a 18month deal which has now turned into 4+ year deal. It has been a wonderful, crazy and adventurous experience living in a developing country - Typhoons, earthquakes, rain 9 months out of the year, corruption, huge spiders, poverty, men urinating on what ever they please and so on and so on....it has made me realize how lucky we are to live in the U.S and the things that we take for granite on a daily basis - like clean drinking water! There is also the up side in having household help, personal driver, great friends, etc which make it quite nice! The people in the Philippines are extremely friendly. Always smiling and waving and always ready for a picture. They love blonded haired/blue eyed children so my 2 little ones have pretty much been mauled and manhandled since we arrived. Living between two golf courses isn't a bad thing either however I can't say it has improved my game! The experience has also allowed us the opportunity to travel to places like Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Thailand, Maylasia, Japan, Hong Kong. Best part about it -- I get to be a full time mom! Love walking hand in hand with the kids to and from school. My family is my life and life is good!
