Merry Christmas!

Christmas, Part 2

We celebrated Christmas, part 2 with Jay's family on Christmas Eve and our family on Christmas Day.  We are incredibly blessed with a wonderful family and so thankful to celebrate with each other!

Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.  Luke 2:14

Christmas, part 1

The Johnson family had a great time celebrating round one of family Christmases this past weekend in Pella, Knoxville, and Grinnell.  It was fun to see the cousins reunited...they had so much fun playing with each other and their new toys!  We all had a good time catching up and spending quality time together.  I wish everyone lived closer so we could get together more often!!

My sweeties!

Katy's Preschool Christmas Program

Katy had her Christmas program at preschool this morning.  She did such a great job!  It is always fun watching all the little ones perform.  Their enthusiasm is contagious!

Visiting Santa!

Florida!

We returned home today from another great vacation in Fort Myers Beach.  We enjoyed spending a week of fun in the sun!  Everyone's favorite was the beach....Jack, Drew and Jay couldn't get enough!  It was so much fun having the family together.  The cousins had a blast together and everyone was sad to see the week end so quickly.  We are already looking forward to next year!

Happy Halloween!
