So Many Things Missed.....

What a crazy few months. I feel like I have been losing my mind a bit and being 8 months pregnant, I have had NO energy or desire to do anything at all! I really do feel bad for my kiddos! So, I will go through the missed months.

APRIL - The start of spring! I love this month, mostly because it starts out with General Conference and Easter. This year, we were lucky enough to have them fall on the same day! The kids did their best at sitting and listening, as much as Ben and I just thought they were playing around, they actually remembered some of the talks. I was very impressed. They are growing up so fast, it makes me sad...but I also love the little people they are becoming. On Saturday morning, we got together with the Smith side and had breakfast. It is always fun and yummy. On Sunday night we went to the Johnson's and had a yummy dinner. We are so blessed to have family all around us to make memories and enjoy time together.

We had Soccer, a late snow storm, Amy and Phil blessed their beautiful new girl Kayelynn, Elli had dance and I celebrated my birthday. My family spoiled me with a trip to the spa....I have never been so pampered! Lunch at Olive Garden and a night out with Ben! Tocano's is so yummy!! So much crammed into 1 month! Goodness....no wonder I am so tired all of the time.

 

MAY -Cameron turned 7! He is such a good boy. He really wanted to have a Nerf War with his friends so Ben and I surprised him with a birthday party at "The Dartside"! It is an indoor Nerf arena. He and his friends ran and shot at each other for hours! They then came back to our house for pizza and cake. I can't believe my boy is 7. He is really excited now to turn 8 and be baptized!!

JUNE - School ended and summer began! The kiddos just had to last a few weeks before the baby came and mom had the rest of the summer off! We couldn't wait.

June 26, 2015....Baby Beau Walker Johnson joined our family. (he will get a post of his very own!) The kids love him to pieces and are such great helpers. I love to see them with the baby. I can't believe how grown up they all are. It has been a fun transition and Beau is such a good little guy! I can't believe we waited this long to have him!

JULY - Ben took the kids to the cabin and Beau and I stayed home. It was really weird to have such a quiet house. There was a little anxiety on everyone's part to be away from each other...but we all survived. I love July, fireworks, parades, and bbq's! On the 24th we went to Sally's house for the annual party. It was so much fun! I love the neighborhood I grew up in and the neighbors that are still around. It is fun to see them and catch up.

AUGUST - Summer is winding down. I went back to work and the kids started school(separate post to come!). Noah started football and won his first game! I love this time of year. I am ready for the cooler temps to start!!
