A Memorable Halloween Weekend: A Fun-Filled Family Adventure

Introduction:

The last weekend of October was a whirlwind of excitement and adventure for The Cruising De la Cruzes. With a mix of work, family time, and Halloween festivities, this blog post captures the memorable moments of their action-packed weekend.

October 25:

The weekend began with Royce returning home from work, and the rest of the family heading straight to Quezon City to check in at Sogo.

October 26:

While Royce was at work, Karen, Kendrick, and Charlotte enjoyed a day out in Trinoma. On their way to visit Royce, they stumbled upon a grand piano, and Kendrick couldn't resist playing some of his pieces.


In the afternoon, the family reunited at Royce's workplace, IBM, for a Trick or Treat event. Kendrick dressed up as Harry Potter, and Charlotte portrayed Hermione Granger. Karen had the chance to catch up with an old colleague who now worked with Royce.





After work, The Cruising De la Cruzes returned home briefly to take care of their pets, picked up Karen's mom, and set off for Pampanga. There, they met up with Karen's friend Maricel, who had flown in from Cebu and rented an AirBnB for the next two days. The evening was spent "talking stories" and reminiscing.


October 27:

Maricel and Karen attended the annual Home Educators' Convention at the School of Tomorrow Philippines, a mandatory event to re-enroll their children for the next school year. Surprisingly, they found themselves assigned to the same academic advisor, making the experience even more enjoyable.

Royce joined Maricel and Karen after work, and they returned to the AirBnB. Karen's mom took care of Kendrick and Charlotte, and the group headed out for dinner.


October 28:

While everyone began packing for their return home, a last-minute decision led to a road trip to Subic, Zambales, to celebrate a special occasion. This day marked Royce and Karen's 13th Wedding Anniversary, and they decided to make it even more memorable.

The family enjoyed lunch at S&R in Subic Freeport Zone and made quick stops at Malawaan Park, Funtastic Park, Ocean Adventure, and Zoobic Safari. The anniversary celebrations added an extra layer of joy to the day's adventures.




As the day neared its end, the family drove back to Clark, where Maricel's flight to Cebu was scheduled. They made a stopover at Puregold Clark for some duty-free goodies before dropping her off at the airport. They then returned to Bulacan, dropped off Karen's mom, and headed home.

October 29:

The weekend wrapped up with a visit to the church, where Kendrick played the piano, and Charlotte showcased her violin skills.

In the afternoon, the family headed to the Samsung Performing Arts Theater to watch "Tricks and Musical Treats: A PPO Family Concert," an annual Halloween event by the Cultural Center of the Philippines and the Philippine Philharmonic Orchestra.






Directed and hosted by Liesl Batucan-del Rosario, the cowboy-themed musical adventure featured pre-event activities and aimed to foster an early love for orchestral music in children.


Conclusion:

The Cruising De la Cruzes' Halloween weekend was a perfect blend of family bonding, adventure, and music. Their support for their children's passion for music was evident throughout, making it a memorable and fulfilling experience. This action-packed weekend showcased the importance of spending quality time with family and friends and creating lasting memories.

Become as a Little Child

I stand before you today to share a message about a remarkable man, Elder LeGrand Richards, and the qualities he embodied, which can guide us on our spiritual journey. Elder Richards attended a conference at the age of ninety-five, where a choir sang beautifully. He asked them to sing "The Battle Hymn of the Republic" at the end of the conference. Little did he know that his simple request would have a profound impact on a man in the audience, leading him back to the Church. This story reminds us of the guiding hand of the Spirit in our lives.

Today, I want to discuss the theme of "Becoming as a Little Child." The Savior taught, "And again I say unto you, ye must... become as a little child, or ye can in nowise inherit the kingdom of God" (3 Nephi 11:38). Children possess qualities that can help us understand why the Savior emphasized this principle.

First, children have a remarkable power to believe. They have unwavering faith in their parents and in the Lord. We too must cultivate such unwavering faith to receive the blessings promised by the Lord.

Second, children have implicit faith. They trust in the gospel principles and in those who lead them. We should strive to build and maintain such faith that is unshaken by worldly influences.

Third, children are intrinsically obedient. Their obedience is without question or hesitation. Our lives would be greatly blessed if we could emulate their simple obedience to God's commandments.

Fourth, children love with a perfect, boundless love. They judge not and hold nothing back. This kind of love is desperately needed in our world.

Fifth, children serve willingly, often without being asked. We should follow their example and serve with a willing heart, remembering that service is a key aspect of discipleship.

Lastly, children approach life with enthusiasm. They are excited about each day, experiencing it with fresh eyes. We too should strive to find joy and enthusiasm in the journey of life, embracing each day with gratitude.

In the scriptures, we find the story of Abraham's remarkable obedience when asked to sacrifice his son, Isaac. His unwavering obedience serves as a powerful example for us to follow.

Now, I want to share my testimony with you. I testify of the Prophet Joseph Smith, who saw God the Father and His Son, Jesus Christ, and restored the true gospel to the earth. His faith and courage in the face of adversity inspire us to follow the Savior.

I also testify of the Savior's Atonement, His infinite sacrifice, and His boundless love for each of us. Through His Atonement, we can find forgiveness, healing, and the strength to become as little children and inherit the kingdom of God.

In conclusion, my dear brothers and sisters, let us hold fast to the qualities of a childlike heart: belief, faith, obedience, love, service, and enthusiasm. These are the keys to finding happiness in our homes, wards, and relationships. May God bless us as we strive to develop these qualities, and I bear my witness that these principles are true in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

In life, we often come across moments that test our strength and resilience, moments that force us to confront difficult truths and make choices that challenge our very core beliefs. This past week, our family found itself in the midst of such a trial, a journey that has taught us about forgiveness, justice, and the importance of community support.


We won't delve into specific details, out of respect for the privacy of those involved, but it's essential to share the story of Kendrick, a young member of our family who recently experienced physical, verbal, and emotional abuse at the hands of a playmate. What unfolded in the wake of this painful incident sheds light on how, even in the darkest of times, there can be hope and a path toward healing.


A Swift Response and HOA Mediation


When faced with such distressing circumstances, it's natural to seek resolution and justice. We took the initial step of reporting the matter to our Homeowners' Association (HOA). They promptly intervened to address the situation, working towards a resolution that would not only provide justice for Kendrick but also support and guidance for the young individuals involved.


Involving the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD)


Recognizing the gravity of the situation, we decided to involve the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD). It was a difficult decision, but we believed it was crucial to ensure a comprehensive and impartial investigation. Abuse, in any form, should never be tolerated, and Kendrick deserved justice and protection.


The Ongoing Journey Towards Healing


As we embark on this journey, we know that it won't be easy. Healing takes time, and justice can be a complex process. However, we remain steadfast in our commitment to stand by Kendrick, to support him throughout this ordeal, and to advocate for justice to prevail.


A Call for Support and Prayers


In these trying times, the strength of a community can make an enormous difference. We humbly ask all of you, our friends, family, and readers, to include us in your thoughts and prayers. Your positive energy and support are invaluable as we navigate this challenging path towards healing and justice.


Conclusion: Lessons in Forgiveness and Justice


The journey we find ourselves on has already taught us profound lessons. We've learned that forgiveness can coexist with the pursuit of justice. We've realized the importance of a strong and caring community that rallies behind those in need. And most importantly, we've come to understand that even in the darkest moments, there is a glimmer of hope, a chance for healing and growth.


As we move forward, we remain committed to sharing our experiences, not just to raise awareness about the issue of abuse but also to inspire hope and resilience in the face of adversity. We hope that our story can serve as a reminder that, even when confronted with the darkest of challenges, there is always a path towards healing, justice, and a brighter future. Thank you for your support and prayers; they mean more to us than words can express.

Adventures and Melodies: A Journey with an Extraordinary Clan

In a whirlwind of excitement and heartwarming moments, an extraordinary clan has embarked on a series of unforgettable days that are worth recounting. The past couple of days have been nothing short of remarkable for this dynamic family.

August 15 - A Day of Cars and Melodies

On August 15, Royce and Kendrick decided to pamper their beloved car by taking it to an auto shop for some well-deserved undercoating. While the car was receiving its VIP treatment, Karen and Charlotte opted for a cozy date at home, immersing themselves in the charming world of "Princess Diaries." As the afternoon sun started to mellow, Royce and Kendrick extended their adventures by fetching Karen's Mom, the lovely Carol, to join in the festivities.


As the sun dipped below the horizon, their spirits were lifted even higher with a captivating performance at the 2023 Youth Music and Arts Festival. Anticipation hung in the air as families and ward members alike eagerly awaited Kendrick's moment in the spotlight, performing the timeless masterpiece, Fur Elise. The night was a symphony of talent and unity, leaving everyone with hearts full of joy.


August 16 - Celebrating Legacy and Togetherness

August 16 marked a significant day for the family as they celebrated Lola Carol's 78th birthday. The day's adventure led them to the FSY Facility of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. With Royce taking on the role of teacher, Karen, Kendrick, and Charlotte joined forces to assist in delivering a lesson that resonated with hearts young and old. Music became the language that bridged the generational gap as Kendrick's piano and Charlotte's violin added a melodious touch to the proceedings.




Royce's topic, "Becoming Self-Reliant Through Education," resonated deeply with the audience, emphasizing the importance of knowledge and self-sufficiency. The day concluded with a retreat to the tranquil embrace of JE Camp Hotel and Resort. As the moon rose overhead, the family found solace in an early slumber, dreaming of the days gone by and the ones yet to come.

August 17 - A Harmonious Journey and Spiritual Reverence

August 17 unveiled a new chapter for their journey, this time taking them on a road trip filled with surprises. The day began with a delectable lunch at Panda Express, tantalizing taste buds and energizing souls for the day's adventures. The family's commitment to their faith found its expression in their monthly temple attendance, a tradition that held a special place in their hearts.

Charlotte, the youngest member, continued her preparations for future temple visits, while Lola Carol and Karen embraced the sacredness of the occasion through endowments. Royce and Kendrick dedicated their time to a meaningful act of service, participating in baptisms for the deceased. These acts of devotion further deepened their connection with each other and their beliefs.


The journey of this extraordinary clan is an inspiring tale of laughter, love, and shared dreams. As they continue to traverse the winding roads of life, one thing remains certain – their bond is unbreakable, their melodies are harmonious, and their adventures are far from over.

Navigating Life's Path: The 2023 Youth Theme of Strength and Creativity

Every year, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints unveils a powerful theme for its youth, providing guidance and inspiration for young individuals to navigate the challenges of life. In 2023, the theme "I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me" from Philippians 4:13 has taken center stage. The theme's essence has been beautifully encapsulated in a logo featuring a stack of stones, drawing parallels to the concept of cairns – man-made stone piles often found on trails serving as navigational markers.


The Symbolism Behind the Cairn


The Church's Strive to Be Instagram account recently shed light on the symbolism of cairns. These humble stone stacks serve as beacons for travelers when paths become unclear. Just as cairns help hikers find their way, they also hold spiritual significance. In our own lives, cairns can be seen as reminders leading us toward Jesus Christ. The 2023 youth theme serves as a reminder that Christ should be the foundation of our spiritual cairns, and that we should actively seek markers that guide us to Him.


Youth Music and Arts Festival: Expression of Faith and Creativity


Aligned with the theme, the 2023 Youth Music and Arts Festival seeks to showcase the talents of young people aged 11 to 18 from all around the world. The call is for creative works that reflect how Christ's strength empowers them to overcome challenges. This virtual celebration of music and art will take place on August 15, 2023. The festival will feature diverse performances and expressions of faith, highlighting the theme's message that Christ is the wellspring of strength in all endeavors.




Karen's Journey: A Testimony of Faith


When the announcement for the submission of creative works for the Youth Music and Arts Festival reached Karen, she took a step of faith. With a heart full of hope and belief in the theme's message, she submitted Kendrick's entry. Feeling the proximity of the festival and hearing no word from Salt Lake City, she assumed Kendrick's entry wasn't accepted. However, her perception changed when she received an email that brought unexpected news. This narrative underlines the importance of patience and trust in God's plan – sometimes blessings come when we least expect them.




Royce and Kendrick: Leaders in Faith


In another part of the world, Royce and Kendrick actively participated in their local congregation's leadership meeting. As a Stake High Councilor and the First Counselor in the Deacons' Quorum respectively, their involvement demonstrates how the youth theme's message resonates across different levels of Church leadership. It's a testament to how faith can empower young individuals to take on roles of responsibility and guidance.




Nostalgia and Bonds: Karen and Charlotte's Pizza Party


Amidst the hustle of spiritual and creative endeavors, Karen and Charlotte took a moment to relish nostalgia and friendship. With a pizza party and a throwback to the show "That's So Raven," they found solace in the past. Karen's fondness for the show resonates with many who find comfort in revisiting moments from their youth. The camaraderie between Karen and Charlotte underscores the importance of friendship and shared memories.




In conclusion, the 2023 youth theme – "I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me" – is not just a catchy phrase; it's a profound belief that guides the lives of countless youth in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The theme's symbolism, expressed through the imagery of cairns and creative works, serves as a powerful reminder that with Christ's strength, all challenges can be overcome. As we witness stories like Karen's, Royce's, Kendrick's, and the bond between Karen and Charlotte, we're reminded that faith, creativity, and friendship form the foundation of a meaningful and empowered life.

Despite his birthday being a weekday, Royce had work commitments that required his attention. He had to attend some trainings at his workplace, demonstrating his dedication and hardworking nature. But the true magic of the day unfolded after his work duties were fulfilled.


Following a satisfying lunch at home, Royce and Karen, his partner in life's adventures, embarked on a journey to renew their driver's licenses at the LTO in Meycauayan. Accompanied by their children, Kendrick and Charlotte, this task turned into a family affair. While the ID cards were still in the works, the silver lining was that Royce and Karen now possessed driver's licenses that would serve them well for a whole decade.


Their day continued with a flavorful twist as they headed to EMA Town Center. There, they indulged in Hong Kong Noodles, savoring the flavors of an exotic cuisine and making the day even more special. Practicality met creativity as they also bought sealants for the roof and varnish, along with a brush for Karen's upcoming crafting project—a lei that was sure to be a masterpiece.


As evening approached, Royce's simple wish took center stage: a delectable liempo dinner. That wish came true with a trip to Chooks to Go, where they purchased a savory liempo meal, satisfying Royce's appetite and setting the tone for the evening ahead.


Little did Royce know, a sweet surprise was in store for him at home. Karen, Kendrick, and Charlotte had been secretly planning to make his birthday even more remarkable with a cake. Upon returning home, Karen discreetly ordered a cake through GrabFood from Goldilocks, setting the stage for an unforgettable moment.


As the cake arrived, excitement filled the air. Karen's well-kept secret was revealed, and a video captured the touching moment when she surprised Royce with the delivery. Grateful and touched, Royce held his candle with care, not wanting to mar the beauty of the cake. A heartwarming rendition of "Happy Birthday" played on the piano by Kendrick added an extra layer of warmth to the occasion.


The day culminated in a relaxing way, as the family settled in to watch "Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 3." Laughter, togetherness, and love filled the room as they enjoyed the movie and each other's company.


Royce's birthday was not just a celebration of a year added to his life; it was a celebration of family, love, and the simple yet precious moments that make life truly special.
