Dear Costco, Why ever would you quit selling our favorite family treat? We LOVE edamame and feel somewhat lost without it. Please reconsider and bring it back to your store. We would be forever grateful. Yours truly, Seth Johnson Family P.S. Does anyone else know who might sell these delicious treats in bulk like Costco …

I love being a Mom
No, this post is not going to be about how wonderful my kids are, nor how wonderful of a mom I am. I am not going to talk about how my house is always clean and how my kids always obey. Indeed I have many overwhelming days. Yep, I have days where I go into …
Happy 4th of July!
Happy 4th of July! This holiday makes me so emotional…all the patriotic songs, men in uniform, family time, and sweet moments to ponder our freedoms and the great nation we live in. We spend nearly every fourth attending the Riverton Days parade with all the cousins. Aftewards we go back to G’ma and G’pa Jan’s …
Happy 8th Birthday Megs!
Megan turns 8 today. It truly amazes me how quickly time passes by. I often find myself wishing I could slow time down a little and keep the kids young longer. Since that isn’t an option, I am trying my best to spend as much time with them as possible. Megan’s birthday happens to fall …
Swim time!
Summer time brings swim lessons. Both Katelyn and Claire took lessons from a friend in our old neighborhood. Claire’s favorite words were “Teacher, I can’t. I need help.” I finally told her she wasn’t allowed to say it anymore. By the last day of lessons they both were doing great. It wouldn’t hurt them to …
Another fall, another set of stitches
Poor Drew can’t keep himself away from the doctor. On Father’s day he fell on our fireplace and cut his forehead on the rocks. It left him with six stitches and a cute Shrek band-aid. Maybe if those nurses didn’t give him so many treats when he came in, he might try a little harder …
Johnson Family Annual Family Campout
I returned last night from our annual family campout to Tanner’s Flat campground (up Little Cottonwood Canyon). We had a great time. We couldn’t have asked for better weather or a better day to go. We left Wednesday morning and the area we stayed was empty. It took away any extra worries about our kids …
A visit from Oma Ria
We were fortunate enough to have my Mom come to visit us again this year. She stayed a full two weeks but it just flew by. It was a busy time for our family with baseball games, swim events, end of the school year stuff, etc. so it was really nice to have an extra …
New Wheels
After fighting reality for more than six months we have succumbed and purchased an eight passenger vehicle. Both Seth and I tried to convince ourselves that we could make do with two smaller cars (after all they did total more than eight seats together!), but we couldn’t deal with double-buckling kids illegally and four kids …
Schools out for the summer!!
This has been such a fun year for the kids. They had to move to a new school, meet new teachers, and make lots of new friends. Each of them agreed that this has been the best year of all. That being said, they are super excited for summer. The last day of school was …
