11 years! Wow I can't believe we have been married for 11 years!! We went on our first adventure away from our kids. I know we are crazy but we love to be at home. We had 4 different families offering to take our kids. Wow we're lucky! We went to Payson to the Majestic mountain inn. It was really nice. We really enjoyed our steak dinner and getting in and out of the car so quickly without any kids. Ha Ha It's amazing that after 11 years I still get excited when he gets home from work and I see him or hear his voice. What a great guy!! He's the best!!






Emmerie and Bailey




The kids had the day off so their cousins came over and we spent the day in the yard. I love the fall!!!




Emmerie had a feveral seizure and we got to spend the night in the hospital. She's completley fine but man that was scary!!



I have the best news ever!! My baby (almost 22 months old) is finally sleeping through the night!!!! I nursed all my other babies to a year give or take a month and had no problem weaning them. Then along came Emmerie. She is completley different from my other children. She hated sippie cups and would let her drink dribble down her chin. I started a cup with her at 5 months and thought she'll get used to it but she was almost 18 months before she decided she liked water. Not juice or milk. Only water. How can you take away a child's lifeline of milk. She would have starved at a year so I continued to nurse. She was nursing once or twice in the night and now has boob rot. Lovely!! I am proud to say that she is fully weaned and sleeping through the night in her own bed!! Wow it has been almost 2 1/2 years since I last slept through the night. Kids... gotta love 'em!! By the way she still hates milk!



Just the Boys!

Halloween

We had a really fun Halloween this year. We went trick or treating with Grandma Curtis, Aunt Laura, the Shumways and the other Johnson kids. We had two double strollers and a single and we still ended up carring some children. What a fun tiring night.

This is our brother in law Rick. He is the big bad wolf and his daughter Easton went as bloody little red riding hood.





Nolan with his cousins Easton and Jamie.

Paige our cousin was a hospital patient. Don't worry, it is fake.

Nolan was a skeleton pirate.




Emmerie was a giraffe for Halloween

but, she fell asleep in the stroller before she made it to the first house. Ben went to walk her to the door and her body was completley limp and asleep. So she rode in the stroller the rest of the night. Silly girl!

Bailey the witch



Carter and his cousin Marlee. They are Fred and George Weasley from Harry Potter.
