SoCal 2019 – Hollywood
Our big Christmas gift to our kids this year was tickets to Disneyland. We had the opportunity to head down a little early to spend some extra time in Southern California before the main attraction. To break up the drive, we decided to stay a night in St. George. We were looking for a hotel …
More missionaries in our family
And just like that, we add two more missionaries to our family. This has been a long journey for them but it has finally come to fruition. We are so excited to watch Elder and Sister Johnson head off on a military relations mission in San Diego, California. They will be amazing! via Instagram
Young Women President

Farewell Fiasco – Tubing the Provo

Called to serve
While we were on vacation in Maui, our neighbor sent us a text that Jake’s mission call had arrived in the mail. We toyed with the idea of having the long-awaited envelope FedEx’ed overnight to us in Maui, but Jake decided to wait an open it the night we came home. So, on Thursday, April …

Both Megan and Jake were able to go on Trek this year. They went to Muddy Creek, Wyoming with our stake. They left on Thursday morning and returned Saturday evening. Although I was unable to attend with them I was able to see them off, pick them up and enjoy all their fun stories. Neither …
Girl’s Camp
Both my oldest girls, Meg and Katelyn, went to girl’s camp in June. It is always something they look forward to attending each year. They seriously have the best group of girls and leaders anyone could ask for. Although I have never been with them I always love hearing about their experiences through the week. …
