Summer Time!

Well I guess that you could definitely say that many a thing has happened. In April we went up to Utah for about a week, something like that, and we saw Maria and Steve's Graduation. But I'm skipping ahead of myself. First things first, we left our warm Texas home and hopped in the car for a ride that would last us about two days up to Utah. On the way there we stayed in a motel, woke up and hit the road again.



We then eventually got to our destination and said a quick hello to Maria & Steve, picked up Sadie and ALL of her stuff. We were supposed to go to Aunt Sue's place and eat dinner there, but we felt that we were going to be too late and we didn't want to keep them waiting, so we didn't see them that night.




The next day we had a picnic at the park where everyone including Mom, Dad, Elizabeth, Eli, Ariana, Alexander, Maria, Steve, Sadie, Aunt Pamela, Gideon, me, and Grandmother got together. So that was really fun. Then that night Gid and I went to the Despains and spent the night there.


That of course was really fun. Then the that day, we went to go and repay Aunt Sue a visit, then I believe we went out to eat with Steve's family and Nephi and Kirsten and everyone else in our family except Elizabeth and Eli and Jazzy.


Then I think that the next day was the graduation, where we went out to breakfast after wards, and then we hit the road and took Sadie back home with us!


So that was for our trip. Then the next month in May, Jazzy drove up here with her friend Jenny and they stayed for a couple of days. Which were two hilarious days may I point out, and then Jazzy drove up to Utah to Jenny's drop off station, and then Jazzy flew back home to hers.
Now we have a full house of six at home instead of our small quiet four for the entire summer. So Jazzy and Sadie have been looking for jobs like crazy and Jazzy recently landed herself two jobs. But that isn't the only thing that has been recently landed, we got ourselves a new pool to put in our backyard for only $100, and it's a really nice pool. From the center out it is 18 feet wide and 4 feet deep. We got it for a really good deal, because normally a pool this size from this company is a lot more expensive by about $300.
The reason it was so cheap was we had to go and take it down, take it home, and clean it. We were probably in the worst possible situation ever while we were taking it down. We were carrying metal poles, under trees, in a thunderstorm, while lightning is going everywhere. So that was an interesting experience. But work and money and time all well spent,we now have a wonderful pool.
Another wonderful thing that has happened, SCHOOL'S OUT!!!!!!!!!!WOOOOO-WHOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!! Just had to make my point across. Something that is going to happen is girls camp, and I will be going for my first year. Jazzy and Sadie are going to help me pack for it and are scratching everything off of the list that is not necessary. So in other words, nearly everything is crossed off. :) I'd say that it's about time that I start wrapping up the Johnson Family Blog Entry of June 7, 2009. So, Laterz!
