In Memory of My Wonderful Mother, 10 Years Later

10years ago on the 17th of February I lost my beautiful mom to cancer. It is really weird that it has been 10 years! Somedays it feels like she has been gone forever and other days I feel like it just happened. I am grateful to know that I will see her again someday! I am also grateful for so many brother's and sister's that are always there for me! I am a very lucky person. We love you mom and miss you more than anyone will ever know! (Thank goodness for the Gospel!)

Finally Pictures!!!

Okay...I know I have been a huge slacker about putting the pictures from Noah's birthday...here they are, prepare yourself for many, many photos!!

Noah's cousins Abby and Jaxyn and his buddies Kaden and little Conner were able to come with us to bowl! They had the best time...kids love to bowl!!

Aren't these boys just the cutest best buds! I love that they have each other!

Ben taught Noah all of the tricks of the trade! Noah will be a pro just like daddy soon enough!

Okay...silly picture I know...I love the little tiny bowling shoes!

Dad and Mom cannot believe this boy is 3!!!

I think he is a little spoild! He love the Geo Trax!

We had the family party at the 5buck Pizza....I know we are nerds! you have to take advantage of the resources you have right??

Cake time! Nope..mom did not make a cool cake this time around..but it was really good!!! (the kids got cupcakes...strawberry to be exact, Noah's pick!)

This is a cute picture of Noah and his 3 Johnson cousins...these four cute kids were all born in the same year!!!

(Noah, Erin, Hannah, Aiden)

That is it...I hope you enjoyed them! Birthdays are so much fun...too bad they only happen once a year!!!

To remember a great man!

Doesn't this picture just make you smile? That is one out of a million things I love about President Hinkley, you just look at him and you have to smile! We will miss him dearly, but everything he stood for and everything he did will be with us always. I am happy that this beautiful couple is back together!

A WHOLE WEEKEND OF BIRTHDAY!!

Thursday was Noah's 3rd birthday! But don't you worry...my little 3 year old now thinks that birthdays carry on for days!! Thursday we took him bowling. He had the best time and is now going to start a league of his own!!! On Friday, Noah's best friend Kaden took him to lunch at Dairy Queen and they had the best time!! Then on Saturday we kind of took a break from the birthday stuff but we did go to the store to shop for things for the family party on Sunday. He had such a good time all weekend! I am grateful for the family and friends that are around to make Noah's birthday a big deal!!! I will post pictures later today...they are really cute!

How long have you been together? Together 9 Married 8 in May (goodness that makes me feel old!!)

How long did you date? 1 year...people started to wonder if we were ever going to move past the dating!!

Who eats more? Of what? It depends...pregnant Steph can eat a bit more I am thinking...but I would say he can definantly out eat me!

Who said I love you first? Ben would say it was me....but it was truely him, we were in my apartment watching a movie...I completely remember it well!!!

Who is taller? He is.

Who is smarter? I would like to say me...but Ben is so smart - with everything. He just knows random stuff about everything!

Who does the laundry? I do. Every now and then(when I am slacking) you will see him throw some clothes in the washer.

Who does the dishes? I do for the most part, but now my sister is living with us and does them also!!! Thank you Amy!

Who sleeps on the right? He does.

Who pays the bills? he does. He is really good with finances...thank goodness!!

Who mows the lawn? He does...when he can find a day off work to do it!!!

Who cooks dinner? I do....well lets just say I am trying to be better at making dinner at home!

Who drives when you are together? He does...I just like it better when he drives

Who is more stubborn? Ben....for sure!!

Who kissed who first? HE DID, in the back of a durango looking out at the stars and pretending not to notice our friends making out in the front seat...it just happened that it was a perfect time for him to lay one on me!! YAHOO!

Who asked who out first? Well really Ben's best friend asked me out first and Ben tagged along...then Ben decided to ask me out on a date of our own!

Who proposed? He did....we had talked about it for a long time and actually had the ring and I was just waiting....he finally did it one morning at about 2am after we finished watching a movie...I think he thought if he didn't do it then he would chicken out! I love him!!

Who has more siblings? I would be the winner with 7 siblings!

Who wear the pants? That would depend on who you ask...right now it would be Noah...Mr. 3yr old attitude! We are both pretty stubborn and I would say I wear them but Ben would say he does....I bet it is him!!!!

NOAH IS HAVING A BABY BROTHER!!!

We found out today that we are having a BOY! Little baby Cameron Steven Johnson! We are very excited...and Noah couldn't be happier!!!

We Love to Sled!

Chris, Heather, and Kaden called us up to go sledding...we are very glad that we went! Noah had the best time and did not want to go home! I was really just in charge of the pictures...due to my "condition"! But it was so much fun to watch!!! We are so lucky to have such good friends!!
