With excited anticipation, my kiddos woke up early to prepare for their first day of school. I think everyone ended up wearing the outfit that was chosen in the fashion show the night before. They all looked beautiful (or handsome) and happy on their way out the door. This year I was ready for school …

Do Good Continually – Back to School 2013
Keeping with tradition, we had our annual “Back-to-School” fashion show. Everyone put together three outfits and strutted their stuff on the red carpet. As the kids get older, I find they get more comfortable having fun so each year is more and more entertaining. After using our cute ballots (see below) that Megan made, we …

2013 Johnson Family Campout
What happened this year that didn’t happen last year, or the year before, or the year before that? Not much really, but that is what is great about family traditions—they’re much the same every year. We missed Joe and Matt and their peeps, but everyone else showed. Greg and Emily Rowberry and family also joined …
Jacob is a Life Scout!
As planned, Jacob is advancing quickly through Boy Scouts. This past week he earned the rank of “Life Scout”. He can now start planning an Eagle project so he can earn the rank of “Eagle Scout.” We are so proud of him and all his hard work. A special shout-out to Seth for being such …
Chick-fil-A Cow Appreciate Day
For the first time ever, I swallowed my pride and caved in to the pressure from my kiddos and dressed up as family of cows for some free food from Chick-fil-A. In the end, it was well worth it. We each got our own full meal which would have totaled near $50!! Aren’t we a …
Drew in his first season of t-ball
I always feel a little bad when I realize my youngest kids haven’t been experiencing some of the things my older kids did when they were that age. For instance, t-ball. It is one of those things that isn’t really a priority any more with our crazy, busy schedule. However, I succumbed to the “mommy …
Meggie Lu turns 11!
Miss Megan turned 11 this month. For her birthday she chose to have friends over for swimming, soccer, and tie-dye shirts. She had a great time. In the evening she wanted to do a cook-out in the canyon with our family. She is so easy to please. For her birthday she got a keyboard for …
Fourth of July 2013
Following tradition, we started our Fourth of July festivities on July 3rd at the Riverton parade with all of our extended family. The kids love it! They have such a great time seeing all the floats and catching loads and loads of candy. After the parade we went back to Grandma and Grandpa Johnson’s home …
We got ourselves a teenager here folks!
Thirteen years ago (on June 20, 2000 to be exact) our first baby joined our little family. It was one of the happiest days of my life. Now thirteen years later, I find myself feeling much of those same emotions. My baby is growing up. In but a few short years I will be attending …
American Fork Half Marathon 2013
June has come and with that brings the annual American Fork Half Marathon. I ran it last year and fell in love with everything about it…the purpose, the heartfelt messages along the trail, the organization and how well it was run, everything! For that reason, I decided then that I would give it another go …
