What's going on?

So, after looking at my pics for the past few weeks, I realize there has been A LOT going on!

So here are the updates:

1. Sabrina is doing better. The swelling has gone down, the bump has diminished, but there's still no tooth. She has seen a dentist and the x-rays show no damage to the permanent tooth. This is good. What we're still praying for is that the tooth will come down. IF it doesn't come down, Sabrina will have to go in for surgery to extract the tooth. :-( We're praying it will continue to move in an OUTwardly direction! (06-01-08)



2. We played Frisbee Golf w/our neighbors on Memorial Day and had lots of fun. Samantha & Sabrina both fell asleep while playing in the forest, so we didn't get our "best" scores has we were holding our handicaps :-) (05-26-08)



3. Anastasia has been showing signs of HULK

Don't be alarmed - Green is in! (05-30-08)


4. Wedding Bells!
Paul's brother Sam was married (barely!) on June 7th. It was a crazy day, but in the end the most important event of the day happened, and Sam & Renata were sealed for Eternity! We don't have lots of pictures because of the rushed nature of the day, but what we have hold fun stories! The girls had cute white dresses with red/gold/green embroidery. However by the end of the day they were brown with rootbeer, fruit, gatorade, suckers, and whatever else spilled on them! It was a great Johansen reunion, and a memorable day!







5. Paul's 31st Birthday!
Happy Day for Paul! We had a fun dinner and delicious dessert with CRAZY candles. Paul received a combo-Birthday/Fathers'Day/We just love you Day birthday present of a much anticipated ipod NANO. He better make LOTS of use of it! :-) (06-11-08)



6. Rainy Day Pool Day!
We finally made it to our neighborhood pool for a FAMILY SWIM. Two minutes after getting in the pool it started to rain. As southern rains go, it began to rain hard very quickly. Paul took Ana & Brie to the big pool, and I got out of the little pool to wrap Sammie into a towel. The rains passed and the sun came out. THEN the thunder came, and dark clouds again w/hard rains. We were slowly progressing out of the pool with the LOUD lightning and thunder got us out of the pool in a hurry. As best we could, we walked home in the rain, Paul carrying Ana & Brie and splashing through the rivers in the streets, and me carrying Samantha with a towel over our heads. This all happened in one hour. At home, neither Anastasia, Sabrina, nor Daddy had gotten enough pool time, so . . . they finished pooltime in the tub. Ha ha ha! (06-14-08)





We've had a great break from Daddy's schooling, and we're going to finish it off with a bang in Utah. We're excited to see family out there very soon! Loves and fun to all!

Great up date Lex! Only one thing I'd change. It isn't Hulk Hogan(he's the guy that has long blond hair and did drama wrestling), it's the Incredible Hulk who turns green. Love ya!

Just so everyone is aware the first comment I made is kind-of a personal joke between Lex and me. Maybe someday one of us can explain it to you...
Hey Lex, I still love you blog and think it's the cutest!
See you in less than a week!!!
