birthday's gallore!

i should be blogging about this boys birthday

seth turned 3.  oh how i love this picture of him.  he is such a happy, sweet boy. i love daily snuggles and conversation, he is talking so big these days.  i love the sweet questions that come in his husky little boy voice,"will you lay down with me mom," " can you come play with me mom,"  and the sweet bedtime whispers, " i love you so much mom."
 i love him so.


I should be blogging about this girls birthday














i can't believe she is 6.  she sparkles and her energy makes me feel young and sparkly too, just by being with her.  i love her independent spirit, her ear to ear smile, and the twinkle in her eye.  she is growing up.  i refuse to see it some days, but just look at her, she is 6 and she will be going to grade 1 next year. the thought makes my heart heavy.  i love this girl so much i will post about her woodland fairy party soon!



. . . . so how could I forget how demanding it is to take care of the needs of a newborn, it is a full time job!  i love every minute, just wish there were more minutes in the day.
 hannah is already 6 weeks old.

we bless her this Sunday, it will be a special day.



















at her six week check she weighed 10 lbs 15 oz
she is growing so quickly
it goes too fast
i knew it would
i am trying to cherish every minute . . . .
every time she falls asleep in my arms
cause i know it won't be long and she'll be sitting, crawling walking, talking and going off to school.

{sigh}

i am in the trenches of motherhood and i am trying to let things go, smile, forgive myself, try again and enjoy the moments of mothering 6 beautiful babies.
 cause i know i am so blessed

  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.
