Carnival Triumph Cruise in February 2009...

2009-02-23T16:27:00.000-08:00

We had a wonderful time in the carribbean. We went on a carnival cruise to St. Thomas, St. Maarten, and Puerto Rico. We went with Dixie and Don. It was a blast...but we wish the weather was better. The waves were so big that our boat would just rock back and forth. Everyone got sick except for Kelly. The first 4 decks were always closed because of the weather. We did have fun on the islands though. Here are some pictures in no particular order of some of the things we did and saw. It is kind of a long post so just sit back and enjoy the show!!!!

Just getting off the ship at St. Maarten to go to the beach!!

Two years ago November our family went on a cruise. Next week we are off to the caribbean again with Dixie and Don. We are reminiscing about the good times we had with our family. We are sailing off on February 1st to San Juan, Puerto Rico, ST. Thomas, and St. Maarten. One week to go and we are getting excited. Stay tuned for pictures....

Here are the kids on the stairs on our way to dinner one night on the ship. Don't they clean up nice?

Weekend in Salt Lake

2009-01-24T13:32:00.000-08:00

We went to Salt Lake for the weekend in January and met Autumn's friend Rich and got to see our adopted daughter Mary. We all went to the movie Bride Wars and had a good time.

Hubbards came to visit....

Christmas Time....

2009-01-24T12:51:00.000-08:00

We are a little behind with our postings. We sure had a good Christmas. We didn't take many pictures this year during the holidays. Hopefully we will be taking more now...since Kelly got a new camera for christmas.

SMILE!!! Autumn and me posing for a picture

We went and spent some time on Christmas at the Assisted Living Center with Uncle Tom. Tom loved his long sleeve shirt we gave him. He says it keeps him warm for the winter months. Everyone at the living center loves Kelly. We had a crowd there that day visiting with us.

Christmas dinner was very casual this year...most of us were not ready for the day. The food was mighty tasty though.

A quick tidbit about the Dogs

2008-12-06T20:25:00.000-08:00

I have to put these pictures on the blog. It made us laugh. This red little bed is Summer and Bill's dog Ellie's. Max and Daisy kicked Ellie out and they both got in it and thought it was great. What crazy and fun dogs we have. They are such a big part of our family...we love them so much.

3 reasons October 12, 2008 will be remembered...

2008-10-13T13:02:00.001-07:00

Yesterday October 12, 2008 was a special day for 3 reasons. The first being Kelly was made the Stake Assistant Clerk in stake conference. The second reason being Drew was made an Elder at Stake conference. The final reason is it was my 54th Birthday!!!

We are so proud of Drew and his worthiness to be able to hold the Melchizedek priesthood. He was so excited to be able to stand in the circle for his first time, when Kelly was put in his new Stake calling.

Kelly will be busy with his new calling in the Stake as well as his new calling in our ward as Activities Committee Chair.

Summer made me a birthday cake. My parents, Nettie, and Autumn were able to come as well for the big day.
Nettie and Autumn gave me this green shirt and vest. I had to model it off and get a picture with them.

Here we are eating ice cream and cake!!!!!! YUmYUm!!!

Camping in Dry Valley....Deer Hunting

2008-10-13T12:33:00.000-07:00

Summer, Bill, Drew, Kelly and I went up Wednesday to Dry Valley and camped out until Friday night. We had a good time other than it was pretty cool. Here are some pictures of our campout.
It was so windy at times we flew kites at our campsite. Bill and Summer brought 2 kites and we brought 1. We were glad that we brought them...they were a lot of fun to fly.
This was a beautiful sunset on our first night there. By the time we got the camera it was almost down. It was going down pretty fast so we didn't get the best shot of it.

Here is Drew in the trailer just chillin. He loves to play on his PSP.

Here I am posing in the trailer kitchen. We ate well...we had hot dogs, chicken dumpling soup, sloppy joes, tacos, and big breakfasts while we were up camping.

Summer in the trailer reading the last book of Twilight.....she is almost done with it. She said it is getting good.

Kelly out looking at the generator on the four wheeler. He was getting it ready to start so we could watch a movie in the trailer and have electricity and keep warm!!!!
Here is Bill and Ellie scoping out the deer on the mountain. Bill, Kelly and Drew went out hunting friday. They saw 2 moose, 25 head of elk, a nice big bull elk, and a lot of does and fawns but no bucks. Bill even had a spike elk run right by him. That was the only excitement they had hunting!

Here is our beautiful campsite...isn't it lovely. It was right off the side of the road.

Surprise Parties!!!!

2008-10-06T13:29:00.000-07:00

We had a great general conference weekend with my family. It was my dad's 80th birthday and my parents 55th wedding anniversary surprise parties on Saturday!!!! We surprised them alright...all 42 of us made it. We had family pictures done. Our family wore pink and brown for the pictures. We also had a catered luncheon at the Fairview Inn in American Falls...the food was great. The Bolingbroke clan then went to Bill and Summer's on Saturday night and spent the rest of the weekend watching conference, playing games, and just relaxing.

FAMILY FUN

2008-10-06T13:11:00.001-07:00

Kelly, Bill, and Drew decided to pull the satellite dish out of the ground in the back yard a few weekends ago. Us girls were entertained by watching them. This is a picture of the satellite dish pole and the girls hands in cement in 1986....22 years ago...wow!!!!!

We also took picture of us behind our fence and in the back yard playing around....Max and Daisy our dogs were worried that Nettie, Autumn and Summer were hurting Drew.
