Less Geeky than I thought!

13% Geek

The only reason I am even this geeky, is because I won a spelling bee in 4th grade, and I've stayed up all night playing solitaire on the computer when I was 9 months pregnant and couldn't sleep! At least I'm not 50% geek like my dear, sweet husband!

Andrew's Girl

This is Andrew's girl. See how happy she makes him? We just adore her. Sorena is so nice and sweet and I think she likes us too! She is so good for him, she really brings out the best in him. She came to church with our family today and I introduced her as "hopefully my daughter-in-law someday". Andrew, it is so great that you are happy and determined to be the best that you can be. We love you son!

Let sleeping dogs lie....

Have you ever seen a dog that sleeps like this? For a dog, this is the most vulnerable they can be, and this guy sleeps this way.





It is so stinking hot outside that this is all that you want to do. This is a cute moment with Berkeley and Riley. Usually Berkeley gets annoyed with the "whippersnapper". I mean, you are the alpha dog for 3 1/2 years and this little fella comes along and plays with your toys, sleeps in your bed, eats out of your dish AND his, and drinks out of your water dish. What's not to like, Riley is always trying to engage him in play when Berkeley just wants to sleep and have some "peace and quiet".



Berkeley has seemed a little bent out of shape with the latest turn of events, so we spoiled him with his own "couch".



I'm not really sure how to explain this picture. How does one sleep this way? Perhaps he's a little "drunk" off video games, after all, it is too hot to play outside. It won't be long before the beagles will be dressed as people!

Random


Perhaps I have been waxing nostalgic of late, but, I wanted to post this picture. Any guess as to who it is?

Yes, it's Brittany at 5 months. She was only knee high to a grass hopper, but, she was already pulling herself up and "walking" along the furniture. I thought that she would walk early, but she never ventured out alone until 14 months.

I just get a big kick out of this picture because she looks so tiny and those little legs and the curly back of that head!

Special Time

Yesterday I had the opportunity to go to the temple and be there for a sister in our ward who was going through for her first time. The session brought me back to the time when Lee and I went through. We were married on January 16, 1988 and sealed for time and all eternity on April 22, 1989.

This is Lee and I with our baby Andrew on our sealing day. It was such a special day for us and our family. I was overwhelmed with emotion at being sealed to my Lee and my Andrew for eternity. We had a special opportunity in the sealing room to make an announcement to our family who was with us there. Andrew was going to become a big brother! You should have seen my mother in law's eyes shoot wide open. It was a priceless moment.

Four generations of Johnsons.

I am grateful to be blessed with a forever family.

P.S. Happy Birthday other favorite Aunt Rose!

Happy Birthday to everyone's Favorite Aunt Dartell!

This is our beloved Aunt Dartell. She was 11 years old when I met and fell in love with her brother.
Lee loves his little sister.



When Dartell was younger, she always said that she wanted to have 10 kids.




She doesn't have any of her own children yet, but she is like a second mother to a bajillion nieces and nephews.




We love our Aunt Dartell, she has always been there for us.



We were there for her when she came home from her mission to Catania, Italy.

We love you so much Dartell! We know how much you love us too! Have a very Happy Birthday,..........in New Jersey!
