My little girl is 8!

There are so many special moments of childhood.
On July 24th, 2010 my little girl was baptized and she truly glowed.

I love this picture of Maddi and her Dad. How blessed I feel that Brian lives worthy to bless our children through his Priesthood, it brought a tear to my eye to watch him tenderly and ever so gently put her down under the water, and then kneel down beside her in the water to give her a big hug.


The pretty dress we picked out together online. I added the sleeves because she wanted to be modest. I love this girl!!

Pretty Auntie Jenny, who gave such a special talk on the Holy Ghost. I wanted to show Maddi's hair too, a friend in my Ward braided it for her and it looked beautiful.


i loved the pink sash and beautiful rosettes with ribbon at the back

so special to have many of the people who mean so much, aunts, uncles, grandparents and cousins come to support her.
what a princess!
i love you Maddi
Fresh as a rainbow
Pure as the white snow
Bright as the sun's warm glow
Shiny and brand new
Sweet as the morning dew
A WHOLE NEW WORLD IS WAITING JUST FOR YOU.
(lyrics from a song by Cheryl Davidson that I used to sing along to as a little girl)



I love my Grandparents so much. They came to support Maddi and our family and we are forever grateful that they would come and share in this special day. WE LOVE YOU!
We gave Maddi her first scriptures with a darling case. She was thrilled.
The 2nd Birthday cake for Maddi, made by Aunt Melissa. Mmmmmm it was so delicious!

Blowing out the candles after a long and eventful day. Earlier in the morning Maddison was in the Magrath parade on a float for Melissa's School of Ballet. She loved every minute wearing full make-up for the event.

Truly a Day to Remember
Amazing to think that she was washed clean of all sin, that for a little while she is pure and free of any stain. I pray that her testimony of the Savior will continue to grow and that she will rely on the special gift she was given. . . . ALL HER LIFE.

  Tender Mercy 08.14.2019 Our dear friend David Higginson who was a missionary in our Ward a few years before Will got his call was so kind to clear his schedule to meet Will at the SLC airport, take him out for lunch and then drop him off at the MTC. Here is what he posted about the experience: This is Will Boehme, I met him while I was serving my mission in Lethbridge, Alberta Canada. I had the opportunity today to take Will into the MTC today so that he can prepare for his own mission in Scottsdale, AZ. This is special because August 14th marks another year gone that I began and ended my own mission. . . and it seems like yesterday. I will never forget the experiences I had or the people, like Will and his family, that I met. Amazing how time flies. Good lucky buddy! It really was a tender mercy for us to know that Will wasn't alone as he entered the MTC.  He had a friend who really went the extra mile to feed him, calm his nerves and put a loving arm of encouragement arou

A few pictures for our Idaho friends of Southern Alberta. more wide open spaces wheat field and rainbow The Boehme farm....where we now live The Boehme Farm...at sunset *We moved home to Lethbridge, Alberta Canada on 08.02.2008!* We loaded up the UHAUL on Friday, Aug. 1st, and did all the cleaning in one evening. Thank you to each of you for your help with that crazy day! No one can move on their own and we felt so blessed for all the hands that helped in so many ways. We stayed at the Campbells home overnight (thanks guys for all the memories) and then got up the next morning and were on our way by 9:00am. The trip was long and tiring, but as we crossed the border into Canada I was filled with a wonderful peaceful feeling that the timing was right and that after 5 years of being away. . .we were home to stay.
