And it's not even May yet!!!!

We live in Georgia now! So far we love it! The weather has been amazing, raining every few days. We love our duplex and it is gorgeous here! We have doubled our square footage from Provo to Atlanta and Xander has his own room now!

So, we thought we would catch up on the good old days in Provo and then the next blog will be about our new life in Atlanta.

But First, we thought we should share with you the 3 Great reasons everyone should move to Atlanta: Great weather, it’s beautiful, and we miss you all!

DINNER TIME!

These pics were taken in Provo right before we moved:

This video is hilarious! Greg thought I was just taking another picture! :-)

Our precious little man

Going for walks is fun to do, to do, to do, to do.

Our little man loves to sleep in the car

Happy Happy Little Xander!

Xander loved playing on that toy!

May is still a great month!

Yet again May has come and we are finally updating our blog! Yes it's true and heck has not frozen over! We are having so much fun with our new son! We love being parents! Tonight he won't go to sleep, but hey it's ok. That is why we are here writing this post. So you can thank our cute little son for not falling asleep.

Here's what we are up to:

Greg walked at his graduation last month, and he is now finishing up two classes and he will be done! Well, for about a month. We are moving to Georgia so he can get his Ph D at Georgia Tech. He is also trying to fit in 40 hours of work each week. He is very busy and we are so happy when we can play with him! I was going to find more to write about Greg, but that is really all he is up to.

Xander is the cutest baby in the world! He loves to coo and tries to laugh. At first I thought he was coughing, but that's the way he laughs. He loves to stand (with some help), and he loves to look in the mirror (I wonder where he got that from?). He is currently sleeping 7-9 hrs at night! Finally! It feels good to sleep again! Xander loves to smile and will try to bat at toys. We love watching him grow!

Wendy

I am having the time of my life playing with Xander and cleaning, cleaning, cleaning! I love to figure out new ways to organize and new places to scrub. And right when I feel like the house is finally clean, Greg comes home and messes it up. :-)

Other than that if you are ever at home during the day and would like to know what is on tv, give me a call. I am basically a tv guide. While Greg is studying engineering, I am studying how to win prizes and money from some of my favorite game shows. I could easily win if I was on The Price is Right, or Deal or No Deal! Yay! We are going to be rich!

I also love to make jewelry(thanks to Becca Droge), scrapbook, and go on long walks on the beach.....or State Street, whichever is closer.

We had our 2 year aniversary last week. It was great! Greg surprised me with a candle lit dinner, dancing, and my favorite ice cream! It was so romantic! A big thank you to Annie who babysat Xander! He made me a coupon book with multiple massage coupons, ice cream coupons, babysitting coupons, homemade dinner coupons, and much more ;-) He also gave me a gift card to Ross my favorite store! I gave him some comfy flip flops and a part for his RC car.

Here are a few cute pictures that we have of our newest little addition.

Xander and Cali Johnson

May is a GREAT month!

This has been quite a busy month so far. I am taking summer classes while Wendy is working full time. She's enjoying not having to go to classes and relax just a bit, although she would like it if I did a little less homework, well , she would like if I did no homework and just played.

We have had quite the adventure with our many multiplying fish. Even though the fish store told us that our fish would not have babies unless there were perfect conditions, our momma fish has had 3 batches of little fish and we hear that she can have up to three more from the one incounter. So, anyone want some fish?

We had our 1Year Aniversary! So far so good! We haven't killed each other yet and as you can see from past photos that we've posted, we've only bled a couple times after fights! No, it was really fun. I surprised Wendy with reservations at the Marriot Hotel down in Salt Lake because I thought they had a really nice pool outside, but it turned out to be a dried up scating rink! It was fun anyway cause they had an indoor pool. I took Wendy out to the Olive Garden because that was the first place that we ever went out to eat at and we went there the night I proposed (cute huh?) . I was able to down just a little more than I did the night I proposed, probably because I wasn't nearly as nervous (and it helped that my stomach has expanded in our year of marriage). Wendy on the other hand has become even more of a rabbit, she downed a bowl and a half of their endless salad then put her dinner in a box, which we ended up throwing away! After that, Wendy had the wonderful idea of watching the Jazz playoff game against the Lakers. She's a doll.

Annie and Mike are leaving us now because of the recent hike in rent so we thought that we would need something to remember them by. Although we may have to give it back!

Blog two

Wow, we suck at writing on the blog!!! But we are a work in progress. We received a threat from Crystal that if we didn’t update the blog she would erase it from her favorites so here goes number two.

A lot has happened. Wendy has drunk her first beer, or at least she’s old enough now, but won’t do it. We both think she’s great. She says it’s her blog too so never mind, “just erase we both think she’s great and we’ll be happy. Babe that’s dumb. Stop repeating me. What are you doing? Oh no. Hahaha. Babe! Erase all of that. You should not write this. Okay. We’re done now. Stop write everything that I’m saying. Let me type now.” “NO!”

Anyway, back to the blog. Below are pictures of Wendy's birthday. We are still trying to chug along in school. It’s getting harder cause the end is coming near and we have so much to do. It’s fun though.

Saturday was really fun. We did study all day, I’m programming a chess game and Wendy had economics, but at around four I got home and started to play. We decided to have a kind of starving student card night. We went to three different food places to use the card and then went to the nickelcade. It’s a good thing that gambling is against our religion because Wendy loves the slot machine nickel games that you win tickets at! It was really funny. I finally got her to come play some of the normal arcade games with me for a bit but by the end of the night we were back to gambling! It was really fun, she’s a doll. After that we came home and watched a movie on the computer. It was pretty fun, we slid the couch over and watched on the Netflix site.

Well, we are needing some shut eye, but we promise to update our blog more often. Love you all!

Our Family Night

Would you like to join our family night? As you can see from the pictures we had a wonderful family night tonight. We were joined by Greg the Bear and the Coaster Family. They didn't participate much, but we enjoyed their company anyway. We may not invite the Bear again because he fell asleep.
