Dance class and the Christmas parade

Sorry for my lack of blogging lately. Here are some recent pictures. We had an observation day at Abbey and Hannah's dance class. They really love their classes and it was fun to see them in action. This past Saturday night, while Jason was in PA hunting, my(Julie)family went to the Christmas parade and had a lot of fun. It even snowed...fake snowed that is. Hannah said that was her favorite part when the truck blew out fake snow. Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Fall 2009

I'm glad that I can finally get some pictures on the blog. We have had some crazy sicknesses here. These are some pictures from the last few months. Hope you enjoy!

Noah's 11 year old birthday

vacation part 2

We had an amazing time on vacation! It's always hard to come home. It was really special to have that time away with the kids as they are growing up so fast. We are so thankful to God for His blessings!

Get Ready to Wiggle....

Hannah, along with her cousin Ava, went to see the Wiggles Thursday night. The girls had so much fun and were very surprised when we told them where we were going. When I asked Hannah where she thought we were going, she said "maybe to get ice cream or we are going to go on a rocketship."

Fourth of July Fun

May and June Pictures Part 2(Hannah's B-day)

Jason was in Brazil for over 2 weeks and during that time we went to Indiana for my cousin Heather's wedding. We also were able to see my friend Erin and her kids and nephew during our time at my Mom's house. Last weekend, we celebrated Hannah's 4 year old birthday. We can't believe she is 4 already. What a big girl she is becoming. She is always making us laugh and loves cooking with mommy and making up songs about Jesus. We had a great time celebrating her party with our family. Great Grandma Johnson was there to celebrate, too! We enjoyed our time with her. Happy 4 year old birthday Hannah!

May and June pictures Part 1

I am WAY behind on posting. Here are some pictures from the last few months. They have been quite busy for us. The kids finishing school, soccer games, dance recitals, and Hannah is officially potty trained!(that is the best news of all) Because of that wonderful accomplishment, she was able to go to Build A Bear and make her doggy. She loved the experience so much and was so thankful. The other pictures are of our family time with the Pierces, Johnson's and Abbey's dance recital.

Fishing in PA

Easter Weekend

Here are some pictures from Easter weekend. On Friday we started our Spring Break from school. I was hoping for a first day of sleeping in, but the kids were way too excited to paint eggs. We hard boiled them the night before, so they knew that first step was already done. Noah made Star Wars Easter eggs. The girls had fun mixing the eggs colors together. We spent the weekend with Dad and Mom Johnson. After a delicious lunch out with the Iles family and Dad and Mom, we went to church. It was a wonderful weekend celebrating Jesus with our family!

Birthday party, Baptism & more!

These pictures are way overdue! Abbey had an American Girl birthday party in mid February. She had lots of fun playing with her cousins and celebrating her special day. Later that night, Noah was baptized at our church. Jason helped with the baptism and it was a very special day! The next weekend Noah & Abbey went to Winter Camp. It was Abbey's first overnighter and she loved it. Noah said he stayed up until 4:30 am, and Abbey said she made it until 12:30. They had a blast and are already talking about next year. When they were gone the house was quiet with only Hannah home, or shall I say Hannah Montana. I was given a concert that night and Hannah and I had some girl time.(Jason was at the camp out working in the kitchen) It was a lot to pack into a few weeks, but we all had so much fun!
