I'm Dreaming of a "White Easter"

The season wouldn't be complete without a White Easter? We had 8-9 inches of snow on Good Friday. A first for Mississippi boy, Todd. We enjoyed a down weekend at home- dying eggs & making Easter Bunny cake, early church and lunch with new friends, Kent, Kerrie & Zach Esmier.

"Thawing Out"

We headed down to the Deep South in early March to visits Todd's stompin' grounds in Jackson & Oxford, MS. Would you believe that the snow followed us & we had cold weather for the first few days? After a trace of snow, it warmed up to the 60-70's for us to thaw out the rest of the week. Here is a picture of Todd's Dad & step mom with the boys. We enjoyed a good week of Southern food, "sugah" from friends & family and being outdoors in the warm weather!

Look what has GROWN at the Johnson's!

Nathanael is over 15 weeks old & a BIG BOY- now weighing 16 1/2 lbs & in the 90% percentile for both height & weight. We are OUT of 3-6 month old clothes (at 3 1/2 months) and almost in Size 3 diapers. Oh my!

Our GRAND Winter Visitors

We were so blessed to have many visits this winter from the boys' GRANDparents!

Todd's mom, Gran Fran, visited us in mid January. She had lots of snow & helped us celebrated Zachariah's 4th birthday!

Me Me was the first Mississippi Grandparent to meet Nathanael & see our new home in mid December.

Grandma Chris loved the boys on her trip from Texas. Of course, Grandmommy & PePaw are close by for more frequent visits.
