Ward Choir

I love singing in ward choir.  I love the feeling that the spirit gives me through music.  We are singing "Write Thy Name Upon My Heart" and I love the words to it so I thought I would write them down.

Write thy name upon my heart.  Jesus Savior of mankind.  Teach me charity unfailing.  Teach me compassion, Lord, like thine.  Endow my soul with loving kindness.  Make me even as thou art.  Engrave thine image in my countenance.  Write thy name upon my heart.  When battles rage, when storms arise, make me a messenger of peace.  Teach me faith to bid the tempest cease.  Endow my soul with loving kindness.  Make me even as thou art,  Engrave thine image in my countenance, Write thy name upon my heart.  Grant me strength to serve thee well, Light my spirit with thy grace, Til all my works reflect thy goodness, Til all my labors sing thy praise, Endow my soul with loving kindness, Make me even as thou art, Engrave thine image in my countenance, Write thy name upon my heart.

Map

Here is a map of where we went.  We had so much fun on our trip.  We came home and are already planning were to go next!!  Thanks everyone for making our trip so fun!!!!

Food

Here are some pictures of some of the food that we ate.

Towels

We thought it would be fun to take some pictures of how they folded our towels at night.

Our waiters

It was fun for Devin when we would see our waiters because they were from the Philippines.  They also spoke Tagalog.  Devin was able to practice his new language and we were able to hear how good he actually was.

Cozumel

In Cozumel we got off the ship and rented a van that took us to a fishing boat.  We went deep sea fishing.  This time we all took medicine so that we wouldn't get sick.  We went fishing for 4 hours.  It was a nice sunny day.  We caught some small tuna, and I caught a barracuda.  Spencer also caught a barracuda but it got off right as it got to the boat, so sad.  They fed us a nice lunch.  We ate hoagie sandwiches, chips with fresh guacamole, and fresh fruit.  Yum!!!  Shauntae and Brittany got sick and threw up over the boat.  Besides that we had a great time.

Belize

Wednesday we were in Belize.  We went off the ship and found a boat that took us to a private island called Goff Caye.  On the way there we saw dolphins.  The island reminded me of Giligan's Island, it was very tiny and no one was on it.  We went snorkeling around the island.  It has the second largest barrier reef in the world.  It was so pretty and colorful.  We didn't see many fish, but we did see a lot of coral and plant life.  It was a nice sunny day.
