I am not sure how many years we have been doing our annual Johnson family camp out now, but it has been a very long time…I think my first one was when Drew was a baby so at least 8 years now. My kids look forward to it like Christmas. Under no circumstance can we …

Grandma Ria’s Visit
Last year was the first year that I can remember my mom not coming down for a visit. Due to some health problems she was experiencing, I went up to visit her instead. All of the kids (except Ellie who went with me) missed not seeing her and were especially excited to see her this …
Girls can backpack too
Megan turns 13 here in a couple weeks. Katelyn is 11. The weather forecast was perfect, and there weren’t any other conflicts, so we decided to head out on their first overnight backpacking trip. The girls seemed pretty excited to go. I gave them general directions of what to bring and what not to bring, …
Field Trips
I may have fallen behind, like way behind on my blog posts at the end of the school year. It is such a busy time of year. I find myself feeling a little overwhelmed with all that needs to be done. We have every concert, play, activity, and field trip imaginable. I went with Ellie …
Ellie’s Preschool Program
Another last…this was my baby’s last preschool program. She graduated from Bear Hollow Preshool. Although I won’t miss paying my monthly tuition, I will miss all the fun she had with Miss Molly and all of her classmates. She loved going to preschool and she had such a great time learning new things and making …
Jesse and Mikaela’s Wedding
My brother Jesse is a great guy, and always has been. Yesterday, he was married to his sweetheart Mikaela in the Draper Utah LDS Temple. It was a wonderful celebration. The Johnson and Milne families all gathered on Thursday, May 14th at Brick Oven in South Jordan to have a pre-wedding dinner. Gatherings with all …
Choir Spring Recital
This year all three of my girls, Claire, Katelyn and Ellie sang in the Highland Children’s Choir. I absolutely love going to their concerts and listening to them sing the beautiful songs. Perhaps it is because I never really could sing or perhaps I just have a new-found appreciation for choir, but whatever it may …
Soccer Season Spring 2015
Soccer season in the Johnson household is nothing short of craziness. Drew plays, Ellie plays, Megan plays club soccer (which is ten times busier than rec soccer) and both Meg and Jake ref soccer. So needless to say our spring and fall seasons are really busy. This year Megan swung up to play on the …
Spring Break Staycation 2015
For spring break we had decided we would go camping with the Rowberry’s. However due to procrastination in planning, we opted to do a “staycation” together instead. We each took a day and made plans to do some things here locally. The first day we went to the Bean Museum, went bowling at BYU and …
Skydiving
Yep. I jumped out of an airplane. And I lived to tell the tale. But, before you go thinking I’m some thrill-seeking adrenaline-junkie daredevil, let me tell you that I followed my 60-year-old mom and my 86-year-old grandpa! They’re the crazy ones. You see, my mom has always wanted to go skydiving. It’s been on …
