Crawfish Boil

Just realized I never posted these pictures from Ryan's family reunion a few weekends ago. We always have the best time when we go! The kids love playing with the crawfish and Tanner actually brought 2 all the way back to Mobile with us! We look forward to going to it every year. This year it was a quick trip where we went and came back all in the same day since Whitney's race was the next day.











Just some sentences...

We have been so busy lately. Soccer is now in full swing and thankfully Tball is coming to an end. This part of the year is the busiest time for us. Ryan goes to tball practice and I go to soccer and we meet up at home around 7 or 7:30. Ryleigh and Tanner are excited that school is coming to an end. They have 3 weeks left and to them it couldn't get here fast enough. They have a few VBS's scheduled for Summer along with swim lessons and few other fun things to keep them busy. The other morning I was waking Ryleigh up in the morning and I said "You are the most beautiful girl in the whole wide world!" I say this all the time to her in the same sing song voice and she always smiles. This time I said, "How in the world did you get to be the prettiest girl in the whole wide world?" She responded, " Because I come from the most beautiful Mom in the whole wide world!" I promise I didn't pay her to say that, lol! The next morning I was waking Tanner up and when I was trying to get him up he said, "I want to take a nap!" I said you've been asleep all night and he said that's not the same as taking a nap! This weekend I'm co-hosting a baby shower for my friend Katrina and baby Grayson. I can't wait for it to come so I can post pictures of all the cute things we've done for it. It's nautical themed and so cute! Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Weekend Wrap Up

Ok so I may or may not have a slight case of baby fever. With Lindsey being pregnant and at least 2 of my other good friends are expecting. My friend Paige just had the cutest little boy, Remy. We went by and saw him and he is adorable! Once he started crying I lost the trace of baby fever I had! 
 Friday night we played this insane tennis racket and tennis ball baseball game with the youth and had ice cream sundaes. Fisher loved the whipped cream!

 Saturday Tan Man had one of his last Tball games and got 4 outs in the game! He's doing so well this season. After his game we ran some errands and had lunch at Picklefish.
 and dessert at Cold Snap.

Saturday night we went to dinner with some friends of ours. We went to Fuego and then to Moka's for their fondue. We went to Exit 13 for Ryan to get a tattoo but the wait was way to long so we left.


This morning our sweet baby girl moved to UpTown at church. She was so excited and spent forever trying to figure out what she should wear so she wouldn't look like a baby. UpTown is the 6-11 year olds. I can't believe she's in the same group as 11 year olds now! What?!?! Where does the time go??
This afternoon we went and grilled out and swam my friend Lindsay's parents house. We had a lot of fun!


The kids are worn out from the weekend we had! The feelings mutual and I'm now headed to bed. Hope everyone had a good weekend!

Blakeley Rena Johnson

I have waited to say on my blog, even though everyone knows now, that Lindsey and Brandon are expecting!!! She is about 16 weeks now and went on Wednesday to find out what she is having. Those of you that know her story can only imagine how nervous she was about her appointment. I'm happy to report that everything is fine! Although her little baby was to stubborn to cooperate and find out what she was having on Wednesday she did find out that the baby was healthy and growing on schedule. 

She did go back on Friday for another ultrasound and found out that she's having a girl! When I told the kids Ryleigh started screaming with excitement and Tanner started crying. His exact words "Another girl!?! Ugh!!!" 
 Yes Tanner, another girl and we couldn't be happier! I'm going to be an Aunt!!! Woo Hoo!!!!
Congratulations Lindsey and Brandon! We can't wait to meet Blakeley!

13.1!

We are so so so proud of Whitney! She completed her first half marathon on Sunday and she rocked it! We got up way to early on a Sunday morning to drive way to far to watch her cross the finish line and I'm so glad we did! The kids had a sign to hold u, It said "You may not be the fastest but you are definitely the prettiest and that's all that really matters!" I really wanted to make the sign say "You may not be the fastest but you are definitely the prettiest (Just be thankful I'm not running or you'd be neither.) Everyone loved the sign!

 Here she comes, here she comes, here she comes!!! I was yelling this at everyone.




She finished in 2 hr 48 min but it was really like 2 hr 40 minutes because she had just walked out of the bathroom when they shot the gun to start the race. 


 She ran with 3 of her friends and they all did excellent!

Tanner asked Whitney if she won the race and even though she didn't technically "win" she's a winner in our book and we love her so much! We are so proud of you Whitney!!
