This post has no title because I am having a hard time putting into words how I am feeling. The Johnson's are moving again. Yep, that's right, we just moved in and now we are headed to Woods Cross! My in law's have often joked about my Gypsy spirit, I have always started looking for our next move as soon as we put down our couch! I feel that has died inside me. We moved to this house in Kaysville 6 months ago knowing that we wouldn't be here all that long and I was just fine with that....until we got settled. I LOVE it here! We have amazing neighbors, the kids are in friend heaven and I have never felt so at home. I am sad! Tonight we had a "goodbye" party for Noah. The kiddos had pizza, popcorn, candy and Toy Story 3. All but 3 of his little friends were able to be here. They had such a good time. I know that Noah is going to go through playtime withdrawls when we get into our new home! I am trying to keep positive and I know that we are not meant to be here for now! I would love to think that we will be moving back one day in our future!

Happy Birthday Baby Girl!

Happy Birthday Elli girl! We love you so very much!


It is crazy how time flies and how big they get in one short year! She is so much fun and her brothers STILL can't get enough of her! Makes me sad to see how fast the time has gone but it is so much fun to watch her learn and grow!

Sometimes I wonder...

So in the last couple of weeks I have come to the conclusion that either...Ben and I have WAY too much going on and have lost our minds a bit...or....that we are just plain going crazy! 2 weeks ago we decided to take the kids to the State Fair. We had a good time together but I didn't capture it in picture due to my camera not working at this time. As we were walking out to the car Ben informs me that he doesn't have the keys. As I am frantically looking through my purse and the stroller he gets to the car and starts laughing. HE LEFT THE CAR RUNNING!!! OH MY WORD...how did we not notice?? 3 hours in the state fair downtown...either our car completely sucks and nobody wanted it...or....we were just DANG LUCKY!

Crazy #2.
This week I had a lunch date with 2 of my girlfriends. I put Elliott in the car seat while Cam was of course pushing all of the buttons in the van, I was totally not paying attention and put Cameron in his seat and shut the door...THEY WERE ALL LOCKED. The car was on and I had no spare or phone. PANIC! My cute neighbor came over and helped me try to break in to my car with no luck. We called Kaysville police and they so nicely saved my kids. I could not believe that I did that! I am just so grateful that it was not 100 degrees outside.

We have had so many laughs this week just talking about how we are both nuts!! If having babies kills your braincells...I had better be done!

A Day of Mixed Feelings....

Bittersweet, confusion, craziness, call it what you may but today was definantly a hard one for me. I keep telling myself that I should be overjoyed but I am going to miss my "Kelly Family"! After 10 1/2 years as a "Kelly Girl" I have called it quits. My kiddos need me at home for the time being! I am very excited, this is something that I have wanted since I started my family. (do I sound like I am trying to convince myself??) We will see where this road takes us! All I know is, I am going to take this time to enjoy my kiddos and become a better mother and wife!

To my Kelly Family..I love you all and I am going to miss you terribly!

Tiff was the one that gave this girl a shot at a job she was not qualified for!! Thanks Tiff!

Eileen was my "Kelly Mom" for so many years! Love her!Vic and Camille(below) worked in the same office as me. I will miss them!

My Kindergarten Baby....


Noah has been anxious all summer long to start school! Monday was his first "real" day of kindergarten! He asked all morning what time it was and how long until school. When we were on our way to the school I asked him if he was excited or a little nervous(mom was sure on the nervous side!) he said "mom, I am only excited, Dad said in my blessing last night that I wouldn't be nervous so I am not!" OHHHH I just want to smother him with kisses!! I can't believe he is such a big boy. Even though the school is very close to our house he gets to ride the bus which he LOVES!! Cameron misses his brother when he is gone and often cries because he wants to ride the bus also! At least he has his cute little sister to hang out with!
