Happy 4th!!!

Nothing like a little lemonade on a hot summer day! 

Happy 4th of July!!! 

Lots of Hugs 4 U

Finally got some time tonight to do some scrapbooking! Probably my only hobby at this point in time, but also an incredibly fun way to preserve our families memories! This is probably the soonest after an event I've ever gotten a page done (the photo was from less than a month ago). I have another page on my scrap table that is still incomplete and it's a photo of Noelle when she was only a month old!!! :) 

Anyway, hope you enjoy this little layout I did... the journaling reads: This photo was taken 5 days after you took a fall down Grandma and Papa Johnson's stairs (all the way from top to bottom). You took quite a tumble and this is the evidence. For days you were telling everyone "she bonk 'er head on stairs, on 'ne carpet." This likely won't be the last time you bonk, but when it happens, we'll always have hugs and kisses to make it all better! 

Sunset on the Lake

We thank Thee, Lord, for daily food,

For plenteous store of earthly good;

For life and health we still possess, 

With house and home so richly blessed.

Johnson Family Reunion

Returned yesterday from the Johnson Family Reunion at Table Rock Lake, was a great time spending time with family, seeing some that we haven't seen in a while and some we hadn't seen in a long while! Spent 4 days basking in the sun, going on boat rides, eating a lot of food, and hanging out at the cabin. 

Noelle LOVED playing outside and swinging in the hammock swing!

Here's the Evidence

Parker got his first tooth last Monday (June 16th) and here is the evidence! We would have never expected him to get his first tooth at 4 months! Noelle didn't get her first one until 7 months, so despite his constant drooling, fussiness and sleeplessness it was still an unexpected surprise! He's growing so fast! 

Noelle & Friends

Noelle, playing with her friends, Brennan & Bekah this weekend. They did not stay as entertained by this activity as long as their parents had hoped! But, they had a good time none-the-less. These kids are growing up so fast. 

Been a While

Ok, so it's been a while since I've done anything with this blog... I'm going to give it another try! :) 

Here's an updated picture of the kids to get started! Noelle is such a great big sister... she is SO good with Parker. What a blessing it is to have 2 such wonderful kids!
