ChRiStMaS.....In DeLtA!!!!

This weekend we had all the family in Delta for a great Christmas party. It's always fun to have everyone home. We played games, opened gifts and even had Santa visit! It's Bentlee's first Christmas so of course, she is more interested in the wrapping paper then the gift itself. Even though it's the Johnson's year off, this weekend felt just as warm as the traditional December 25th that we are use too. Thanks to everyone for making that weekend memorable!

Santa Baby...

Yah, Mo is just as excited....

And Bentlee is the most EXCITED!!!

Bentlee's first time meeting Santa

A White Wonderland

Bentlee's 1st Halloween!!

This Halloween was a blast! A few days before Halloween we went to the Rexburg trunk or treat as ballet dancers. We then took off to Boise to spend time with the cousin's, Halle and Lexie. There we had another trunk or treat, and we had to use the pumpkin costume after Bentlee loved the taste of her tutu! HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!

Bentlee and Me

Cutest Pumpkin EVER!

Didn't take long to learn what's good.

This was her first Halloween

outfit, which she ate and ruined!

She painted her own pumpkin! (kinda)

"Smashing pumpkins"....cousin style!!!!!

All in all we had an AWESOME time. Having a child sure makes life fun and holidays more fun!!! We love you Bentlee:)

TAKE A HIKE!!!

The other day we went on a hike up by Hiese hot springs with Bentlee. It was a small hike but fun with the small creek running down the side. I love the water in Idaho, it's like the crystal clear waters in the brita filter commercials. Bentlee was good. It got a little hot so we had to throw her blanket over her head. All in all, worth doing it again!

Bentlee's got cold feet!

Momma and Doddah!

I love this little girl!

Her legs were tired!

We really are good parents!

Our Newest Addition!!!

I am so excited to be able to finally show off our newest addition to our family....Bentlee Mae Hawkins, born May 17th @ 9:56 pm, weighing 7 lbs 2oz. We could not ask for a more beautiful daughter. This has the been the best journey I have ever experienced and although it took some time to have this little miracle join our family, I would do it over and over again. I love this little girl more than anything!!!!!

Really??

I was sitting here tonight looking through all my old pics and came across these ones and thought really??? Did I have that bad of taste back in the day? So, this was my PROM DRESS!!! I know, try not to let the BOW suck you in. Back in september I was home for awhile. One weekend, one of my little sisters was trying to find a dress for an upcoming dance. I always let them know that they are MORE than welcome to wear my lovely dress. But, still my offer has not been taken up on. Brianne and I were sitting in the room trying to help her out by pulling out some of our old dresses. With 3 older sister there has to be at least one in there to wear. Finally, we came across both of our prom dresses. Now, to this day all my little sisters hate this dress. Seriously, I will never hear the end of it. Well, Brianne wanted us to try it on and show our parents. So, here we are trying on our old prom dresses. What can I say though, I loved this dress back in the day and probably thought the BOW could've been bigger. HOPE YOU ALL ENJOY!!! Danielle, this one is for you.
