Welcome 2012

New Year's Eve was such a beautiful day. With the warm temperatures and sunny skies that greeted us, you'd never know it was December 31! We couldn't let this gorgeous day go to waste, so we headed outside to explore our new neighborhood.

Cole broke in his recent birthday Big Wheel and Cade had his first stroll in the 'car'. Both boys had a blast riding down the sidewalks.


As we walked, Michael and I began praying for the families that live in the homes surrounding ours. We are anxious to meet these soon-to-be friends and see what ministry opportunities the Lord brings our way!

To cap off a fun day, we spent the evening with dear friends, the Gibsons, and new friends, the Colyers, enjoying a Mexican fiesta and chocolate fondue. High hopes for late night game playing were quickly dashed as nearby fireworks kept the littles awake (6 kiddos ages 5, 3, 2, 1, and two 8 month olds - whew!), but the conversations that ensued were all the more sweet :) Back at home around 11:00, both Michael and I resisted the urge to crash and stayed awake to welcome the new year.

2011. . . you were a year filled with so much joy, blessing, and new adventure. 2012. . . eagerly awaiting what's in store for the Johnson clan!
