I know, I know! Don't. Say. Anything! I treat this blog just like I treat my annual new year's resolutions. After a few months, I just can't ever find the time to keep up. I get 'reminders' regarding the blog. I constantly get phone calls from the family. They curse, scream, threaten, and say mean things about how I don't update enough; and that's just the Johnson side! ;) I will do better. That's all I can say! Here is a quick overview of the past year (man, I really suck don't I):
Spent Christmas in Utah. Grandpa Johnson, Ari, and I made a snowman. It seriously took us forever to build, and then the neighbor kids knocked it over! Messed up!
We spent Christmas morning over at the Sagapolutele's. Fili and Pan weren't even there. They were with family in Vegas. Dad and Mum drove down at stayed a couple of days at their house. Matson's family and our family joined them Christmas morning to open presents.
Celebrated New Year's with our good friends, the Nicholson's. Ari and Atticus are such good buddies. I have never met a kid quite like Atticus. He makes me laugh so hard!
Ari turned 5! She wanted a party at Chuck-e-Cheese with all of her friends.
Valentine's Day came and went...
St. Patrick's Day came and went...
Random dress-up pic that Ari wanted me to add. :)
Tornado season came and went. Actually, I'll spend a bit more time on this one. This pic is when the sirens went off during a bad storm. Brad was out of town, so the girls and I camped out in the closet for about 3hrs. That storm was the same storm that devastated Joplin, MO.
I turned 29 for the 2nd time!
4th of July came and went... We spend it with the Nicolson's every year. The slip-n-slide was pretty epic! (Am I too old to use the word 'epic')
And somewhere in the middle of all of these crazy shenanigans, we bought our first home. We are still in the process of remodeling rooms. It got way too hot, way too fast, so we took about a 3 month hiatus during the summer. The weather is now in the mid to high 80's, so it's perfect time to start up again. We love our house, love our neighbors, love our ward. We feel very blessed!!
**Tune in next week for my post about our fun-filled quick trip to Utah for the Dickerson/Johnson wedding! Loads of fun! (Yep, that's what I said NEXT WEEK!!)
