Carson + Carolina’s Engagement Party

Bontrager Family Singers — Sat, 13 May 2017 16:00:00 +0000

About a week after Carson + Lina’s engagement, the Bowers clan (Lina’s family) invited ours over for a celebration…family-style! We had such a riot! Lots of laughter, conversation, yummy food, and even a few very very happy tears of joy at the answering of so many people’s prayers for these two. If ever there was […]

Last Week at Home, from January

Bontrager Family Singers — Sun, 05 Feb 2017 01:38:00 +0000

Our last few days at home (the beginning of January) found some of us nestled in + staying warm. Okay, not really. Truthfully, the only one “nestled in and taking it easy” would have be our dog, Ryker, who definitely was and is enjoying his well-earned retirement days of life! Everyone else..was bustling about getting […]

The beginning of October (the 2nd) found us arriving home from our last tour of the year! Morning sunrise of champions. So beautiful. October started out green and gorgeous.
