Family Vacation 2013

 
 This was the inside of the cabin. Pretty roomy for a family of 5!

 
 Me and Josh! On a vacation! We haven't seen one of those since July 2009!

 
 The great and wonderful children on our way to our hike. I think we are the only family that hikes in flip flops!

 
 Enjoying the scenery!

 
 The kiddos again. They love to climb stuff and have NO fear of heights!

 
 Enjoying his down time. Even though he gets 2 weeks off after working 2 weeks, I still put him to work when he's home. I'm glad he was able to take us on such a great vacation and even more so that we were able to create the memories we did.

 
 Part of the lake. One of the days we were there we rented a Pontoon. And let me be the first to say....IT WAS A BLAST!

 
 Daddy and Jaxon. Father and son time at its finest!

 
 The girls. Who knew exactly what to do when it was time to kick back and have a great time!

 
 The tube we had to buy in order to go tubing! They didn't rent them out so we are stuck with it. All the more reason to keep going to the lake. We don't have any water around where we live.

 
 The campfire. The much anticipated fire that would NOT stay lit. We tried to make smores, but the wood was too damp from previous rains, plus its very humid there!

 
 And the fire was gone and this little boy had to use the bathroom apparently!

 
Until next time. The sounds of the summer that this place holds in our hearts. We will enjoy going every summer from here on out. It was by far the most relaxing place this momma needed to just breath and get away from home and daily routines and chores and bills and the telephone!

The torture. The madness

I try. I try to make food last. I try to stick to a grocery budget and sometimes ( more than I'd like) I fail. I'm slowly getting better at buying the important stuff in bulk. Our main meats. Beef. Chicken. Pork. I can stretch that out for months. The big things of Sunny D last about 3 weeks....etc you get the idea. The worst thing I could possibly do is go to Sams on a Saturday afternoon. WHY?? WHY do I do that to myself? It's not like I'm that busy Monday thru Friday! O well lesson learned. When I do go back it will be on a Tuesday morning....a few months from now!

Johnson Family 2013 ~ Year Review Part 1

   This has been a great year of change, growth and accomplishments. Jaxon turned 5 this year and started Pre-K. Jessie is in the 3rd grade and she turned 9 this year. Jill turned 12 and is greatly enjoying the 7th grade. Him and Jessie love doing crafts at the table. Paint, color, draw, cut and paste! They are defiantly my busy bodies!    This was the year for wild and wacky hair. Jessie went purple at the beginning of Jan. They chose crazy hair as a reward for staying on the A or A/B Honor Roll. They are now back to their original colors and, even though the wacky colors were fun and exciting, I am glad they are back to their roots :)    I had spent hours in 2012 on Pintrest. And one of my Resolutions were to start putting my pins to use! I have the girls bookshelf a makeover. And even pinned my own work on Pintrest!    I became "public" about my Alopecia. Only family and very few friends knew of my new condition. And once ...
