SEB Christmas Lunch!

Today we had our Seoul English Branch Christmas lunch! It was so much fun! After church, we went to the gym and enjoyed a wonderful nativity put on by the primary kids! They sang so many songs and even accompanied some with bells (Very brave of the primary chorister)!


After the program we ate a delicious meal! Spencer took his favorite...MAC SALAD! We had ham, salads, pastas, rolls, desserts galore!, mashed potatoes, burritos, chips & salsa and so much more! It was a great meal! It filled us quite nicely and got us all ready to go home and take a nap!

The Simons are officially in Utah for the weddings so we sat with the Nites! They are such a great family. We're so blessed to be surrounded by such wonderful people here in Korea! Surprisingly, our ward is still pretty big! We were supposed to shrink significantly at the end of the summer with the Seoul army base closing but we've still got lots of families around which we're grateful for! We will be so sad to leave in March! 💙

Coming Soon: Baby Burhoe!

December 13, 2018

Today was the best day our married life so far! Spencer and I found out after months of having to wait for insurance that we are going to be parents! We will be welcoming a little baby boy or girl into our family at the end of August next year! We couldn't be more grateful for our little bundle that's on the way! It's bee an emotional few days. The first pregnancy test that I took was negative. I knew it was still pretty early and that it might not be accurate, but I was still disappointed when I saw the results. This morning when I woke up, I just had a feeling that I should take another one. Something in me knew it was going to be positive. Spencer was at work and I considered waiting until he got home, but then decided not to just in case I was wrong. I took the test, and this time it was positive! The next few hours before Spencer came home were filled with all the emotions. Spencer came home and I'll never forget the look on his face when he found out. It wasn't until I was with him that it started to sink in and I think for the first time in my life, I felt pure joy.
