Hanging with the Johnsons

Summer Days

Sometimes the kids do art.

Sometimes they discover that our lake has a few turtles!

Sunday Afternoon

Our new primary president asked the kids if they would make temples out of whatever art materials they wanted.  Jase used magna-tiles, Ryan showed the Lego temple he had done and Evelyn looked at Aunt Stacey's temple painting for inspiration before she colored the Portland temple and added Trix flowers.

Then the boys got haircuts and Ryan tried to trick me that he was getting a reverse mohawk.

Fourth of July 2020 Part 2

After our Fourth of July mountain adventure, we spent the warm afternoon on the lake.  It was so relaxing to paddle along and watch beautiful dragonflies dart about.

Avi watched us from the deck.

Then we had sparkler fun.

We also lit fire crackers that we'd stuck in the dirt and blew up plastic army men.  By "we", I mean the kids of course.

Then we got glow sticks and watched our neighbors shoot off amazing fireworks.  It was a full show.  We're pretty grateful to have had such a fun day.

4th of July 2020 Part 1

First step was to get a flag for our new house.

Then we drove up to Mt. Rainier for a little adventure.  

We found snow!
