Johnson Reunion 2011

We were able to make it to Wyoming, well Idaho I guess, for the annual Ervon Johnson reunion. So glad we did because it was great. We got to try out our new camper and iron out the kinks before carrying on with the camping schedule this summer. It was so nice to have! We took turns cooking, played family fued, water balloon volleyball, and kickball, kids did scavenger hunts, rode horses, had rubber ducky races, fed the baby calf, ate, played in water, drove a mini john deere, 4-wheeled, and then passed out cold every night! A HUGE thanks to Tara and Cindy who put the whole carnival together. It was awesome! So good to see my family, including my super cute grandma! Love you all!

Hally Happoween...

So this year's Halloween was especially fantastic. I didn't have to beg my teenager NOT to go trick or treating with her friends, and she got to go anyway, with her sister and cousins. I hope, for Addy and Emmy's sake, that their neighborhood is built up more next year, and more people will be home. We scored 4 candies there...then moved on to our neighborhood. To Matt and Melissa's delight, we took the kiddies to the Griswold's halloween house. Luckily after being scared half out of their cute little tights, they scored huge with king size candies. Maddy wasn't even phased...YET! Here are the girls planning out their candy strategies...or just being plain yummy!
Here are the girls...

The weekend before, we had a booth in the What Women Want expo in St. George. It was our most successfull weekend to date. Yeah us!! We put in a lot of hard work and long hours to get ready for this. Kudos to my cute mom, and the mastermind behind this whole thing. She is where we get our creative streaks from, thanks mom. The woman is a machine. Only taking a day off after we got back, she was right back into gear to get ready for our opening at Quilted Bear in Midvale. (We've been in Provo since October 1st.) I must say that the long hours might have been excruciating had it not been for Micheal Jackson and my extremely talented baby sister's dance moves. It definately helped get through the long days. Go Sissa....
On the way home, we stopped to visit my cute Grandpa in Nephi. He has apple trees so we helped clear him of some apples. The girls loved the 'run-on-the-apples-game' they screamed and laughed. As soon as we got home, Dan made homemade applesauce...it was truly the BEST!


One of our favorite things to do in the fall is tour the Alpine Loop and stop at Sundance for lunch. Sundance was gorgeous (of course) and we picked up new ski gloves for CHEAP. Muggy tried on some ski glasses! We're looking forward to getting her up on one of the dozen pair's of pink skis that we've already spotted around town. I guess she has to learn to walk first, that will help immensely!


Daddy and Mad's at Sundance.

The 3 loves of my life at Sundance. Am was tired??? or maybe tired of pics...she couldn't keep her eyes open.


Before that, the babies turned 2! 2?? Holy moly! Here they are...yummy as usual.

Maddy also enjoyed the b-day party...and their toys!

How cute! THanks for all your patience while we bugged the crap out of Dan this last month! We are in and settled pretty much. We need to have you guys out to dinner. Do you like authentic Italian?

Followed a facebook link to find my old friend! Congratulations, Dan, on a gorgeous family. The baby is super sweet, you all must be very proud. I'm very happy for you! I'd love to catch up - we can compare parenting teen angst stories. (Our girls are 13 and 11 now...) :)
