Nashville

We went to Nashville with dan, Sarah, Annie and Leah.It was so fun! It was fun seeing Annie and Leah. They were cute. At first Leah was shy and then she started getting used to us. We played with them a lot. These are the things we did...

MAMMOTH CAVES

Mamoth Caves was fun! It was big and beautiful. There were lots of cracks. And we saw a few spiders. They were huge. Once the Mammoth cave tour guy turned off the lights and I couldn't see the outline of my hand. It was so dark.




DOWNTOWN NASHVILLE HOTEL

The hotel was awesome. One hotel rom had two queen sized beds. That was our room. The other room had 1 king sized bed for Dan and Sarah. Anndie and Leah slept in the room with Dan and sarah of course. The elevator was fast, scary and FUN. I always got excited whe we were about to go on the elevator. It made me have butterflies in my stomach. It was so cool. We went to the pool in the hotel. The pool water almost tasted like salt water. (I didn't taste it on purpose.) The pool was 8 feet deep in the deep end.

THE PARTHENON

The parthenon was so pretty and big. There was a lake right across the street from it. We took a lot of pictures.

My cute brother, Luke.
DOWNTOWN NASHVILLE

Downtown Nashville we walked past lots of stores. Lots of the buildings had people singing in it. There was a hat store that we went in and tried on a buch of cowboy hats.

THE FOURTH OF JULY

On the fourth of July in the morning we all got red white and blue clothes on and went downtown Nashville and played on lots of blow up toys. We got free ice cream and there were lots of lemonade stands and stuff around us. Then we started looking for a place to watch the fireworks. It took a long time. When we finally found a place to go we got all the chairs set and started playing until it started raining. We didn't want to get wet so we went beside a building. Then it started pouring really hard and we got soaked even though we were close to the building. Then when the fireworks were over we ran to our hotel. It took about 10 mintues to get back. We were all soaked and all the little kids were crying the whole time... but all the adults and Ryan and I were laughing the whole time.

FIREWORKS

The fireworks were awesome. There were so many different colors. At first the fireworks were to loud and the little kids got scared. They were crying so we went to a place that was farther away from the fireworks.

NASHVILLE TEMPLE

The Nashville temple was tiny and beautiful. It was right next to the church we went to. After church we gave the Walton hugs because we left on that day.

The Future

This is one of my journal entry's from my school journal. My mom wanted me to post it...

"In the future (in the late 2020's to the early 2030's) I'll be having about 6 or 7 children. I want to have 3 girls and 4 boys because I have more good boy names.

The girl names I want are Riley, Olivia and Elizabeth. The boy names I want are Mark, Drew, Will and Login. I'm excited to be a mom. I've had a ton of practice. Now, it's easy.

But sometimes when I'm tired I'm glad I'm not dealing with Luke, even though it's easy.

And I am really excited to babysit. The biggest adjectie of being a mom or babysitting is... FUN!"

Mother's Day party with Grandma

On Saturday I went to an Achievement Day party. It was for Mother's and Daughters but my mother was in the hospital with Matthew. My Grandma Johnson came with me instead of my Mom. The food was sandwiches, bananas and strawberries. And of course the dirt dessert. It was pudding and crushed up oreo cookies and gummy worms and a home made flower in the middle. It was very pretty. We played a game. The moms (and grandma) did the girls hair and made it crazy and the girls did the moms (and grandma's) hair and made it crazy. Here is a picture of me and my grandma. We even wore it to the hospital so we could show my Mom. Thank you Sister Starbuck for planning and making such a fun Mothers/Daughters party. Thank you Grandma for replacing my tired mom.

Little Peanut

On Friday, May 8th, Matthew David Johnson was born. He is my new baby brother. In fact, I'm holding him right now and I can't put him down. He's so cute. I just want to hold him ALL the time. As soon as I get home from school I race to him and take him from my Dad. He has lots of dark brown hair just like any Johnson baby. He opens his eyes more now than he did at the hospital. He has lots of cute outfits thanks to my mom. I love holding him. He's pretty wiggly if he's awake and I think he looks a lot like Ryan and Luke did when they were babies. He sleeps a lot. He is very soft. My plan for the summer is to hold him all day and take care of him and give mom a break. He uses his soother a lot. He yawns a lot. He gets the hic-ups a lot. He is such a cutie patootie. He's so cute -- just look at the pictures.

All about my little sister, Megan.

I have a little sister, Megan. She is very pretty. I'm going to tell you a few stories about Megan.

Once when we were eating Sunday dinner Megan went to the bathroom and we heard her singing High School Musical songs while she was in there. She does that all the time. All of us laughed.

Another time Megan lost her money so I gave her a quarter of mine and she treated me like the best sister ever that day.

Once Megan found scissors and decided to cut her own hair so then my Mom had to take her to a hair salon to get a new hair style... and the new hair style is in the picture.

Another time when she came into the kitchen for dinner she walked in with sunglasses and her hands on her hips, shaking her hips. It was so funny.

Megan is funny, pretty, happy, smart, helpful, playful, beautiful, cute, sassy, marvelous, and fun.

A few things I have to help Megan with are: picking out her clothes, help give her a bath, do her hair, give her something to do, play a game with her, put on a movie for her, play a game with her, get a snack for her and many more things that I probably forgot.

About my little brother Luke

I have a little brother Luke. He's not a baby anymore... he's a toddler. I always have to babysit him. The things I have to help him (and my mom) with are: getting his jammies on, getting his clothes on, doing his hair, giving him snacks, putting him in his high chair, taking him outside on the tramp, putting a movie on for him, play cars with him, reading him books, figuring out what he wants, trying to distract him, teaching him words and lots more that I can't remember.

It used to be hard to take care of him but I've had lots of practice so it's easy. And it is very fun!

A few things I love about Luke is when he says GO after somebody says 'ready'.... how he tips his spoon over so the food falls off and he still eats the spoon... how he smiles and frowns because sometimes he frowns on purpose... how he acts when he's mad about something (he buries his head in his arms against the floor)... how he looks exactly like Ryan did and does now. Actually I love everything about him.

Luke is silly, wiggly, funny, happy (usually), squirmy, sometimes screamy, awesome, chubby, fun and cute.
