Johnson Family Fun!!

Jax & Jenni

I had the most fun visiting my family for an ENTIRE week!!  Craig took time off work and took care of Jace, Brooke, and Ty while I flew to Utah with Jenni to play with my family for Jessica's wedding.  I was worried about Jenni crying during the entire flight since she was still fighting off a cold but she did perfectly and slept the entire way.  It was beyond wonderful to visit with my family and have a little bit of a mommy break from my other kids and just enjoy Jenni for a bit.  I loved going on walks with my mom and Jessica.  Walking is awesome.  I love going for a walk and just talking.  Of course I talked Jenny into doing a silly 8 week fitness challenge with me so we had to be: drinking 90+ ounces of water daily, eating 5+ fruits and vegetables daily, exercising 7+ hours per week, accomplishing a daily spiritual goal, and avoiding treats except on our cheat day.  Why do I do these things??  I guess because I'm competitive and making it a competition motivates me to get fit.  Since this was a team challenge I talked Jenny into doing it with me because she is even more competitive then myself so I just knew we would win. 

While Jarrod was at his bachelor's party we had a little party for Jessica.  We went out for Mongolian BBQ and had a spa night.  Future reference - Jenni does not like Mongolian BBQ - she fussed the rest of the night with tummy ache.  We had fun talking and doing nails.  Mostly it seemed like Jessica and I nursed babies. :) 

Our lovely toes.

The night before Jessica's wedding we had a big BBQ in Grandma & Grandpa's back yard.  Everyone was there.  It was the first time in 12 years that all of my siblings were all together at the same time.  We ate, and laughed, and talked, played some games and laughed some more.  It was great to have everyone there.  I barely recognized Jeremy with his long hair and beard.  I wanted to touch his face and see if it was actually him in there. lol

Baby Jenni got passed around lots and lots.  She is loved.

That empty space behind me is for Craig.  Maybe I should just photo shop him in.

We did some family pictures.  Justin decided to pose with his slice of pizza.

Mom, Dad, and Grandma Carmen.  

I love the look on Becky's face. lol

Jessica's wedding was absolutely beautiful.  It was wonderful to see her walk down the isle with my dad.  She looked gorgeous.  The ceremony was outside at the Marriott.  It was fun to stand in her line with all my sisters.  We are a good looking group. ;)

I love this picture of all the Johnson girls.

After the wedding and the luncheon we had an Easter egg hunt at Grandma's house.  

I love these girls!

The next day after the wedding Grandma, Grandpa, Jenny, Justin, Ryker, Hunter and myself headed to Las Vegas to chill at the condo.  We did some swimming and relaxing and played Apples to Apples.  Those twins are hilarious!  The next day night I spent in Justin's man cave.  He showed me around Vegas.  We walked around the Las Vegas temple grounds. We went to the water show and the flower show at the Bellagio, got take out, and watched a movie on Justin's big screen. What a great night.  He dropped me off at the air port the next day.  What an awesome trip!!  I have been homesick since I left.  It was so fun to see everyone.  I love my family so much!
