Merry Christmas

2011-12-29T16:54:00.000-08:00

Jayden got a football and Drake got
the basketball for Christmas. And
of course Jayden wants them both.

Jared spoiled me with lots of cute clothes,
a purse and a darling braclet with there
birthstones on it. He does a great job,
thanks babe and I love ya tons.

My parents house is always crazy, 25 people
in one room is a little hetic. We gave my
mom some cute clothes and my dad a
nice coat, gloves and coverals. Drake got a
remote control helicopter that he loves.

Jayden got a huge dump truck with blocks in
it that you can build. You can ride or push the
truck also. Thanks mom and dad for a great
Christmas. We love and appreciate all that
you do for my family and I.

Jayden loved this chair, he would go get a treat
and go sit on it forever.

Jared's parents also give a great Christmas.
My boys are spoiled rotten. Jayden
got a jungle with lots of animals that make
noise. Drake got lots of Transformers and a
big semi with a ton of cars in it.

Santa brought Jayden a cart that you
can play 5 different things. You can
do a puzzle, make shapes and drive
little cars on the top, he loved it.

Thanks Johnson's for a wonderful day, we love ya.

My husband got about 5 new outfits. He
is a spoiled kid to. He is so fun to buy
for so its my fault that he is spoiled.

Happy Holidays

2011-12-16T08:21:00.000-08:00

We went to see the lights at Temple Square.

It is crazy trying to get 30 people on the

same page but we did it.

Festival of the trees was INSANE. But it
is for a good cause so we had fun and got

some good treats.
Santa came to Trudy's house to see
all the kids. Drake got a shark semi
and Jayden slept 3 hours through
the whole party.

We took Drake and Jayden to see santa
at the mall. Jayden was a little scared
so we just let Drake do all the talking.

I took drake sleeding when we had that big snow

storm. I pulled him behind the fourwheeler
and we a so much fun.

Happy Halloween

2011-11-21T18:11:00.000-08:00

My boys looked so

cute & scary. Jayden

was a moster which

fits him perfectly

right now. And Drake was a scary vampire.

The family went to the pumpkin walk. What a great day
and fantastic weather that we had.

The boys love to carve there pumpkins every year.

Drake drew his own face and carved the pumpkin

all by him self. He did a great job. Jared carved the

headless horseman. And my job is to clean all the

seeds and goop out of the pumpkins.

We went trick or treating up on Cliffside.
Then we went by to see Grandpa Max for
his birthday.

Tonya had a Halloween party for all the
kids. They carved pumkins, played
musical chairs, painted t-shirts and
got to frost cookies. They had a blast.

Family Pictures

2011-10-30T19:46:00.000-07:00

We had family pictures taken in October 2011.

They turned out so cute, I thought.
My baby Jayden was such a pain. He would
not sit still and I couldn't get him to smile
for the life of me. Sounds just like his dad.

On the other hand my other son is just like
his mother. He could smile for the camera
all day long. He kept telling the photographer
to come take a picture of him, it was so funny.

We had beautiful weather that morning.

After we just let Jayden rome around
and do his own thing we finally
got some cute pictures of him.

My Jayden

2011-10-16T12:05:00.000-07:00

Is that not the cutest picture. Your bumb

only looks that cute when your one.
Jayden and Drake play so cute together.
Drake is the cutest big brother.

My baby is walking, at 13 months he decided
to take off. He is now an even bigger menace
but we still love him to pieces.

Jayden loves his tractor toy. He rides and
pushes it all over the house.

He still gets into every drawer and cupboard in
the house, but nothing that we can't clean up.

Jayden loves to play in Drake's room. He goes
in there and climbs up on his bed and sings.
He must miss his big brother when he is gone.

Drake's 1st day of school. He loves the 1st grade
and is doing very well in class and on the bus.

He catches the bus with our neighbors Conner
and Justin Dockery.

California Trip

2011-09-10T13:18:00.000-07:00

Jayden was hilarious at the airport. He crawled

around going a 100 mph for like an hour. He was

the entertainment for the people at the airport.

Drake was so excited to fly on the airplane since it
was his first time. He was so good on it also.

Jayden slept on the way to California so that
was good. Unfortunately on the way home
he was wide awake and a pain in the butt

for the whole flight.

It was a good thing I had a lot of people
there to take turns with.

Jayden was so cute, he climbed in the
suitcase with his bottle like he was ready
to take a nap in it.

We went to Fisherman's Wharf and walked
around the piers. Drake had to jump on the
tramp for ten bucks(not worth it) but he was cute.

Drake of coursed loved the boats and water.

Jayden was so cute, just hanging and
looking out the window.

Drake got to be the captain on the boat.
He got to drive all by himself and he
thought that was pretty awesome.

We ate at Bubba Gumps Restaurant which is
one of my favorite places to go.

Jayden was such a pill. He would pull all
the clothes out of the suitcase and then
climb in it to play. It was the best toy ever.
And of course a huge mess, but oh well

Gavin and Hayley got married in the Oakland Temple.
It was beautiful, so I took some new cute family pictures.

Their reception was is a friends backyard
and it was so pretty. I'm jealous and
want to get married again.

Aren't my cute boys so cute in pink!

Drake had to dance with the lovely
bride. Gavin better watch out.

Drake also caught the garter. My boys were
the party out the wedding, since they
were the only kids there.

Then we went to Water World. This is Drake's
favorite water park. It wasn't as big as the
one in Denver but it was still a blast.

The water was freezing so it took Jayden
a while to get used to it.

Drake loved the lilly pads. It is harder
than it looks believe me.

On the last day we took Drake to ride a Trolley.
And since it was some form of train, he loved it.
Thanks Grandma and Grandpa Johnson for
making this trip possible and a ton of fun.

Happy Birthday Jayden "Big #1"

2011-08-30T21:24:00.000-07:00

Jayden had quite the birthday party. All of the

Johnson family attended along with a few

members of my family. Jared and I gave

Jayden the police coop car, and Jayden

loved it. He is the cutest thing ever.

Ya I know my kids are very spoiled. But I can
say that none of those presents are from me.

I can't beleive that my little baby is one.
I remember it like yesterday just being
in the hospital with him, crazy how time flies.

Grandma Sue gave him this stool, it spells
his name in different colors(I love that face).

Daddy and mini me.

Grandma Jean gave him the books and
a safari truck with animals in it.

Aunt Tamra gave him the baseball toy and
Uncle Gavin and Hayley gave him a bowling
ball and pins. Looks like the apple doesn't

fall far from the tree.

This is my favorite picture. That look on
his face is so precious.

He loved the cake and frosting. It
didn't take him long to get his
fingers dirty.

And of course big brother had to try some.

My big boy!!!

2011-07-30T20:23:00.000-07:00

Jayden loves to climb into things, then he gets

stuck and starts to wine.

This is a kitchen that we borrowed from Elise
and Jayden's loves it.

I know he looks like a sumo baby.

Drake and I went to feed the ducks at 1st

Dam and it was a blast.

I can't believe that Jayden is already 11 months.

It has gone by way to fast, but I am enjoying

every moment with him.

Summer Fun

We celebrated my mom's b-day for 3 days.
We went to the Aquatic Center to swim

This is Gracie, she is 2

Jayden loves the water, as long as he isn't

in it head first.

If you know my dad, it was like

pulling teeth to get him to the pool.

My cute nieces, Haley & Kylee

We went to Chilis for my mom's b-day lunch

Drake and Jordan are like little buds

This was Jayden's favorite toy for the day

I know that water looks discusting but the kids

had a blast going down the slippin slide.

Happy Father's Day

Me and the Griffin clan went to Willow Park

the rolls in those thighs. Only when your a

baby is that cute.

All of the grandkids, 16 of them.

Drake's Kindergaten Graduation

2011-06-07T19:22:00.000-07:00

Drake had to rock out on the guitar while

the class sang Abc rock. He was such a stud.

Jayden is no longer my sweet still baby. He is
crawling all over now and gets into everything.

Jayden loves his teething cookies.
But boy are they messy.

Drake and I at his Graduation

Jaay's 33rd b-day.

Drake's soccer

2011-06-07T19:18:00.000-07:00

Drake did so much better this year in soccer.
He made a couple goals each game.

Happy Easter

2011-04-24T19:42:00.000-07:00

We went to the Newton Easter Egg Hunt. The

kids had a blast and thank heavens the

weather was nice at 9:00 a.m.

Jayden was hilarious, he kept stealing
Gracie's suckers. After all he is as
big as she is, which is probably 22 lbs.

Drake and Jayden had a lot of fun finding

their baskets and eggs this morning.

Happy Birthday Drake!!!

2011-04-07T10:47:00.001-07:00

Drake got a new bike for his birthday.

I can't believe he is 6 already. We went down to Lehi to the Trafalga Fun Center. We had lots of family and cousins to play with.

Drake went all the way to the top on the rock.

He did so good, and he thought that was a blast.

It was a little cold for the bumper boats but of

course it didn't bother the kids. Drake was soaked

afterwards but he didn't care.

He got lots of great gifts. He is one spoiled little boy.

We raced go carts and won everytime. Go Drake.

Happy Birthday buddy! We love you very much.

My Baby

2011-02-27T08:49:00.000-08:00

Jayden is 6 months old and weighs 17 1bs.

He finally rolled over to his belly the other day.
Drake is such a good big brother. He is always
making Jayden laugh and smile.

Jayden loves the bath tub. He had Roseolla in

this picture, (that's the rash on his body).

Jayden also loves the Jumper.

Merry Christmas!!!

2010-12-28T11:15:00.001-08:00

We had a great Christmas this year. We had
dinner at Jared's parents on Christmas Eve.
Opened gifts at home after Santa came.
On to breakfast and presents at Jean's house.
Then Drake went to his dad's the rest of the day.
Jared went to work and I went home to clean. Then
on Sunday we all went to church with my family
then did dinner and presents at my parents. It
is always a busy few days but also a lot of fun.

Haley gave Jayden some new clothes.

Drake got new hot wheels and semi from Jordan
and a Olympus sweatshirt and sweats.

We got spoiled this year. My mother in law
gave Jared and I new lap top and printer.

Santa brought Jayden a piano, a catipiler that sings
and some new clothes.

Santa brought Drake a fuse ball table. He loves it.
He also got some games, movies and new clothes.

Don't mind all the druel on his shirt.

Jayden loves the bathtub

The new haircut

2010-12-07T20:47:00.000-08:00

Jayden's hair was getting a little out of control.
It was starting to look like a old man's combover.
So my mom and I trimmed the top of it and it
looks so much better. Drake was 6 weeks when
I had to cut his and Jayden was 3 months.

This is their favorite pass time and it is so presious.

I saw this binni in wal-mart and if you know
my husband and me I just had to have it. And he
looks so freaking cute in it.

Drake is such a good big brother. He loves to hold
and play with Jayden. They are my world.

My future football star!!!

2010-11-20T10:22:00.000-08:00

My little chunk. Jayden has got long chubby
fingers and huge thick thighs like his dad.

Enjoying the crowds of people and scenery
at the pumpkin walk.

Drake lost his first tooth by getting punched in
the face on Halloween. He and his friend were
boxing with boxing gloves. He got four dollars for
one tooth. Man have times changed since I was a kid.

Jayden's Blessing

2010-10-17T20:23:00.000-07:00

My little man is getting to big to fast.
He is already 8 weeks old.

We blessed my baby Jayden today. He looked so
freaking cute in his little tux.

Jayden finally arrived!!!

2010-09-02T15:31:00.000-07:00

Jayden T. Johnson was born Monday August 30, 2010
Weighing 7lbs 8 oz & 19.5 in long.
I was started with Jayden at 39 weeks. After they
broke my water at 7:30 I started pushing at 11:30
and he was born at 12:08. Everything went really well.

Of course he has tons of hair, just like his brother did.
I guess the heartburn really paid off.

Drake loves him to death. Everytime someone
comes to see him, Drake will tell them to
put sanitizer on their hands. It is pretty cute.

This picture was taken 4 days before I had the baby.

Summer Fun!!!

2010-08-22T19:27:00.000-07:00

This is our giant slippin slide that we set up at my
mom's. The kids have a blast on it. Unfortunatley
I didn't get to try it, oh well.

What some cute little boys

Camping with the family. Sleeping on air maitress
8 months pregnant is not the funnest.

Summer's Here!!!

2010-06-21T20:07:00.000-07:00

My entire family was together for father's day weekend.
We went to Cherry Hill and then spent the rest of the
weekend on the Griffin Ranch. It was a blast. The kids
were so much fun and we were excited that it was
finally nice outside.

The kids were ready to catch candy at the Clarkston parade.

Haley's Graduation. Crazy that she is that old already.

My two stud muffins. They were dressed up for Jared's B-day.

We took Drake fishing and he loved it. He caught a fish all
by himself. He thought that was pretty cool.

Its a BOY!!!

2010-04-20T19:05:00.000-07:00

Jared and I are very excited for the new addition
to our family. Drake on the other hand was a little
upset that he wasn't getting a little sister. But
there is not doubt about this one. It's all boy!

Happy Birthday "BIG GUY"

2010-04-07T20:08:00.000-07:00

I can't believe that my little man is 5.
I thought Easter was long, but we also
celebrated Drake's birthday for 3 days.
I was exhausted by the time the weekend was over.

Drake got an Ipod shuffle for his b-day. He
loves to listen to music. And you should see
this boy dance, he definatley got his skills
from his mother, lol.

Uncle Gavin gave him a basketball to start practicing.

Drake helped bake and frost his birthday cake.
We tried something new this year. We got a train
pan from my mother and baked it from scratch
and tried to frost it. By the time we were done
it looked more like a happy school bus than
a train, but it was a lot of fun for us to do together.

He is so excited to try his 3D slippin slide this
summer. You wear the goggles and it looks
like the shark is going to eat you.

Drake also got roller blades. He is getting better
at wearing them. We had the whole clan out
there blading it up. It was pretty fun.

Drake of course is spoiled rotten, but cute as hell.
By the time his actual birthday came we had
already celebrated it 3 different times, with
different people. So on his birthday he woke up
and we had breakfast together before I went to work
and I was singing to him and he said "well if today is my
actual birthday where are my presents". Jared and I
about fell over. But it was pretty funny!

Happy Easter!

2010-04-07T19:48:00.000-07:00

Easter was crazy this year. It went on for 3 days.
We colored eggs at grandma's house and had
a easter egg hunt with all the cousins.

We had Easter at home on Sunday before Jared
went to work. Drake had to find 45 eggs and his
basket that was hidden the the washer.

We went to 3 Easter egg hunts. Clarkstons was
in the church at 10:00 because of all the snow.
Then we went to Newton's at 4:30. Drake
was so funny that by the time we went to
the hunt in Newton he looked up at me and
said "mom haven't I done this a few times already".
But he still had fun and got tons of candy.

This is the hunt at grandma's. Her egg hunt is
the best. Grandma not only hides eggs and
candy but money. Drake got 14.00 in his eggs.

This is the clan. Elise, Madi, Kennadee, Lexi
Brooklyn, Jordan, Drake, Hunter, Gracie and Cami.

Merry Christmas!

2010-01-09T20:20:00.000-08:00

Christmas was fantastic this year in our new house.

Drake loved his Transformer costume he wore it all day long.

Santa brought Drake a skate board, a moto bike and the Wii.

Jared spoiled me as usual. He gave me my own
bowling ball so I can whoop him on the lanes.

The girls and I got together after Thanksgiving for dinner and movie.
It was so nice the see them. We laughed so hard, just like old times.

OUR NEW HOUSE!!!

2009-10-19T19:21:00.000-07:00

Building our new house was a blast. Jared and I
got along great. We rarely disagreed on anything.
Drake loves his new room, it already feels like home.

The yard of course needs some work.
That will be the project next spring.

Drake helped a lot with the new house.

Our Trip to Denver

2009-09-23T20:14:00.000-07:00

I think Water World was the best part of the Trip.
We had a blast. The park has 38 slides and we
rode about 33 of them. Drake was such a good
kid to ride in the car for 8 hours.

This was Drake's favorite slide.
He went down it about 6 times.

We also went to the Sea Aquarium.

Drake loved the Aquarium. We saw a lot of cool fish.

Drake and Jared fed the Sting Rays a
fish out out their hand. It was pretty cool.

Laser Tag, and I won every game!!!

We went to the BOONDOCKS Fun Center

Go Carts

Bumper Boats that were best!!!
