Boehme

One fine Sunday afternoon ... we went and visited my Grandparents who are living in Raymond, AB about a 20 minute drive from where we live. My grandparents are so fun and full of life and they make me want to live every day to the fullest! Speaking of longevity my Grampa Williams will be 99 this December, just look at him doesn't he look awesome. Grama has always been a firecracker and I love spending time with her, she is 84 and looking amazing too! It brings me such joy to be close to family again and to be able to share in these wonderful relationships with Grandparents! What an important role they have played in my life, I love them so much. Grama shared an experience about her conversion to the church with us while we were there that Dad hadn't ever heard before, I thought it would be fun to record it for family to read. As my Mom and I asked Grama when she joined the church she told us it wasn't until after her and Grampa were married and they had a few chi...

For my birthday my Mom and sister sent me to the salon for some pampering...but it was a SURPRISE! Jenny showed up at the house and put this funny necklace around my neck that said "Its' my birthday...30, 30, 30! And then placed this flower wreath on my head~ She told me that I had to look on the card to find out where I was going and I absolutely had to wear this where ever I was going! tHE NEW HAIR MY CAKE! What do you think.....good change? It was long overdue!

This past weekend was such a spiritual feast as I and many of my family and friends of my faith had the opportunity to watch and listen to THE 178TH GENERAL CONFERENCE OF THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST OF LATTER-DAY SAINTS. What a special opportunity we had to hear a prophet of God speak to us, teach us and express his love and encouragment . President Thomas S. Monson is so dear to all church members, we respect and love him as God's servant upon the earth. As I watched I couldn't help but ponder the churches humble beginnings 178 years ago as Joseph Smith and a handful of saints organized the church in its fulness on the earth once again! How grateful I feel to the Prophet Joseph for his leadership and for his example of faith and obedience to a loving Father in Heaven, and for giving his life for this great work! I love the words he spoke.."Shall we not go forward in so GREAT A CAUSE." And forward this church has gone, it has grown as Joseph prophecied and be...

Back to School my cute little preschooler! so grown up and ready for school! The big grade 1 the leader of the pack...starting grade 2 i love the first day of school, the excitemtent, the crisp smell of new clothes and school supplies AND OF COURSE THE CLASSIC PICTURES INFRONT OF THE HOUSE! Just look at that cute little staircase of kids-- from 2-4-6 and almost 8!

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.
