More Holt family happenings(:

Hey Everyone!
Sorry it has been so long!! Well here is what has been going on!!

We took Houston ,Elder Holt, to the airport on April 30th... Turns out we were supposed to take him on April 29th. Here is the story.

Christa had all the information in a file, and was constantly going over it all. Everything said report to the MTC on April 30th. When you go to the MTC in Provo you report that day. Well when you fly to Brazil you have to leave the day before. Well, we had made it to Salina when Christa said Oh My Gosh and wouldn't say anymore. We were all saying What What What! And she goes you were supposed to fly out yesterday. Instantly there was a panic! But, we called the Church office and they got him a ticket for that same day. He wasn't the only Elder that did this another Elder in California did also! We got him on a plane though, and now he is in Brazil loving it!






Hailey, is in New York City for the summer doing a couple Advertising internships!! To check out what shes doing check out her blog haileydel.blogspot.com!!



School is out for the summer, and we are ready to have a blast!

Hunter went to EFY this past week! She loved it, and is on a spiritual high!!




Haddie and Haven have a new toy!! It is a zipline that is in our backyard!! We always have the neighborhood kids over playing on it!!




Thats all for now but there will be more coming!!

Love always- The Holt Family

Hey Everyone

-Hey Everyone-

We decided to start a family blog after we saw Brianna and Andy's. So, you can check here to see all of our adventures. Right now our latest news is Houston recieved his LDS mission call to Brasilia, Brazil!! He leaves April 30th, and goes to the C.T.M. (M.T.C. Brazilian style) in Sao Paulo. So, we take him to the Salt Lake City airport instead to the MTC in Provo!




We just had Spring Break, and our family went to Salt Lake City on Thursday to watch the Jazz verse the Lakers. Sadly, they lost. But, some funny events happened while we were there: a cup of beer was thrown to the floor, a lakers fan threw a t-shirt back at the bear and was escorted out, and there were a few fights. All fun! haha!



Friday we drove to Ogden. Houston and Jim skydived indoors at IFly Utah they say it is a lot harder then it looks, so they will be going back up and all the girls are planning on trying it. After Houston, Hunter, Haddie, and Haven went indoor surfing/boogieboarding. The kids loved it, and can't wait to go back!! Hailey andd Jeff met up with us later that day, and we went to the movies. The older kids saw Vantage Point which was alright. Christa and the little girls went and saw Penelope which was very cute!
