Christmas 2007





This Christmas we were in Idaho with my family!! We definitely had a White Christmas as we got snowed in on Christmas Eve. It was a total white out, which I love!! The whole family made it home for Christmas so it was a good time had by all.




It was so fun to be at home and watch all the kids get so excited about Christmas. Of course on Christmas Eve, we read the Christmas Story and talked about the real reason for the Season. My Dad did a wonderful job of teaching everyone about the Savior and all the symbols that come around Christmas Time.




We were actually all shocked on Christmas morning when the kids slept in until 8:30! All the adults were awake and up before the kids, well except for Brendan.




A lot of our family traditions revolve around food, YUMMY!! Christmas Morning, we always have a Grapefruit, Crepes, and Ham. We all LOVE this meal and my Mom is such a great sport to do this for us every year!!




Also this Christmas was really wonderful because we got to welcome a new member into our family. Ian Thomas Johnson was born Nov. 12th and this is the first opportunity we all got to meet him. He is just darling and so dang cute. He is a really good baby and it was so fun to spend some time with him. Ian is the second son of Jessica (my little sister) and Steve.
